"What are you doing here?" I ask but it comes out as a sob. I don't want him, or anyone for that matter, to see me like this. I'm a wreck. Wyatt doesn't seem to mind though.

I couldn't just leave you here to cry because that would go against the tutor code.""Tutor code?" I ask, puzzled. "Yes, the tutor code. It states that a student must make sure his tutor is never upset or crying and if he does ever find her like this it's his job to make her smile at any cost," he tells me. "You just made that up.""Maybe I did but that doesn't matter. Come on," he says, extending his hand out to me."Where are we going?""You'll see."~*~*~Aurora is a normal seventeen year old, happy and content with life.
