Keeley gave Aaron a genuine smile as she thanked him on her way out of his car. His assistance today was probably the nicest, most genuinely helpful thing anyone had ever done for her. She would have been in deep trouble without him.
It was actually quite sad that the person she depended on most let her down so often when she truly needed it but now that she was a self-sufficient lone wolf, he somehow always managed to figure out when she was in need and come to the rescue. If he had been anything like this before, she wouldn't have fallen out of love with him.
It was a moot point now. She had fallen out of love with him and too much had happened for her to ever love him again, no matter how nice he was. Still, it was a pity.
She got to work on her paper and managed to crank it all out forty minutes before midnight. Her grade would have suffered without Aaron's quick thinking tonight and for that she was grateful.
