Chapter 29

029 Take Her Home

Scarlett’s POV

Long after Damon left, I’m still standing on the street corner with Aurora, showering in the no–longer–too- warm breeze of the end of summer because she is staring in the direction where his car has left.

“What?!” Aurora snaps out of it, exclaiming, “What are you talking about”

“Umm, the elephant on the street???” I follow her as she strides in to dodge my eyes, “Since when?!

She suddenly stops, and I giggle as I follow her sight to look, only to freeze where I am.
