Ava's Pov:
Waking up in Leon's bed felt refreshing.
I gave him grace and dropped the attitude. He was trying so hard and what he did didn't make me love him any less.
I was happy, grinning from ear to ear as I stretched my arms and let the sun shine on my face.
Until I picked up my phone.
Multiple tags from random people, missed calls from Alicia, notifications from blogs I used to stalk religiously when the rumors started.
My heart thumped with each notification I cleared.
I was trying to stay calm, telling myself it wasn't what I thought. I thought if I cleared them, I wouldn't have to worry about them.
But I did worry about them.
I put my phone down for only a few seconds before I picked it up again in a panic.
I opened Twitter first. My name was everywhere. People were laughing at me, saying I got what I deserved. Others praised Leon for finally seeing the light.
