Six years ago, both their hearts were broken. Back then, everything seemed to be perfect and yet, it wasn't. Two childhood friends who grew up to be the perfect couple in High School were facing something that they had never imagined to come between them: a break-up. It isn’t easy for either of them when Edward and Bella have to come to terms with the physical aspect of their relationship but when Bella learns about the ultimate betrayal from Edward's end, she is quick to end things without a second thought about the man she loved. While Edward, on the the other hand, doesn't get a chance to explain his actions and drowns himself in guilt and grief. But his love for Bella is ever-lasting and he is adamant on getting her back. Even now, Edward still tries day and night to come up with a way to win back Bella's trust. Is it as easy as he believes it will be? Will Bella be able to give her heart to the man she still loves, or will the past years always cloud her vision?

Objects In Mirror Are Closer Than They Appear is an amazing short story that will have you hooked from the very first chapter.
