Road trip

19- Trouble in paradise

"I'm sorry Anna, whatever I did, I'm sorry." He rasped in between kisses as my head spun with a variety of overwhelming sensations.

"Austin," I gasped for breath.

His lips finally separated from mine as he hovered above me. "I'm sorry, I hate when you're mad at me, please." He was rambling.

"Austin it's fine, I just haven't been sleeping and I got moody." I told him half the truth, excluding the part where I was jealous of the time he spent with his cousins.

"What can I do to make it better?" He asked before he started to ramble again about different things he was going to do to make me feel better.

"Austin, please!" I whisper-yelled "just shut up and kiss me again!"

This time I was eagerly awaiting his kiss. My lips were already parted in anticipation and without thinking of Molly for the first time I let myself truly feel every single movement.

I felt every single brush of his lips on my mouth until he moved over to my neck. The sensation of him licking and sucking me there sending a jolt of energy between my legs that had me struggling to hold back the loud moan that wanted to escape me.

"Austin..." I begged.

"Do you want me to stop?" He gasped as I felt the temperature of the room increase to an almost unbearable point.

"No, but it's hot." I chuckled as his fingers brushed down to the hem of my shirt. He watched me intently as he lifted it slowly until he finally got it over my head and threw it on the floor.

"Better?" He asked as I swallowed and nodded.

Of course it was redundant because the moment his eyes moved down my almost bare body I was back to being hot all over, again.

He pulled his own shirt off and leaned back down, watching me until his lips reconnected with mine and my arms wrapped around his neck once more.

When his mouth began to trail down my body I groaned, the feeling completely new to me.

"Anna, we should probably stop before we get too far into this?" He mumbled as I grabbed his face and pulled him up to look at me.

"You said that if this doesn't work we go back to best friends right?" I asked watching his reactions.

"Right, but."

"But nothing Austin. I'm already doing the one thing I said I wouldn't do, and if I had to pick someone to be my first it would be you." I looked at him sincerely meaning every word I was saying.

I mean this was bound to backfire, but in the grand scheme of things I did want it to be him, wanted it to be someone I trusted, someone I could depend on.

"Anna I don't know?" I reached up to brush his face with my finger.

"Austin, listen, I don't want to get to college and have some drunk first time fling, I want someone who is going to respect me and take care of me."

"But you said.."

"I know what I said. I guess I still don't know if this, is, is something that can work, but I do know that I like kissing you and I know that I trust you with all of me. Please?" I pleaded. "I'll never trust someone else the way I trust you."

"Damn it." He cursed under his breath.

Thankfully I didn't have to say anymore after that because what followed was a tangle of sheets and skin on skin. It was obvious that neither of us knew what we were doing, the awkward moments filled with quiet laughter as we figured out how to mold together two bodies so they fit as one.

It wasn't the perfect experience I had thought it would be from reading stories online, but I guess in a way it was it's own kind of perfect. I mean for two people who didn't know what to do, we seemed to figure it out and I'm pretty sure he enjoyed it as much as I did after the initial shock wore off.

"Anna," he whispered as I laid in his arms once we were done. "Promise we will always be best friends no matter what? I love you too much for anything less."

"I promise."

......

When we got up the next morning no one commented on him leaving my room, nor did they say anything about the obvious flirting that we were engaging in.

We actually spent most of the day lounging at the house until Oliver and Tyler ran into the movie room.

"Get dressed." Oliver grinned, his blonde hair falling over his blue eyes.

"We are taking you both to an LA house party before you leave tomorrow." Tyler added.

Austin squeezed my hand and looked at me questioningly as if he didn't know if I wanted to go.

"We would love too, but I didn't bring party clothes." I smiled as them as Austin played with my hair.

"It's a good thing we planned ahead, now go get ready, your outfit is on your bed." Tyler rolled his eyes as Oliver smirked at me.

Austin pecked my cheek and went to get changed as I went to my room and slipped on the overly revealing dress the boys had taken the liberty of getting for me.

Once I was dressed in the sparkly black spaghetti strap cocktail dress. I fixed my hair and makeup so I was semi presentable and met them all downstairs.

Austin whispered something about how beautiful I looked as we got into the car and together we all made our way to the boys friends mansion.

...

We had been here a total of thirty two minutes when I realized that this party was going to bring nothing but trouble. Too many drunk models wearing barely any clothes and too many guys ogling the girls for any of it to feel comfortable, regardless of whether the house looked like paradise.

It wasn't until Austin didn't come back with our drinks that I went to look for him and saw the long legged brunette hanging of his arm as she fiddled with the top button on his white shirt.

I swear I was staring daggers at her when a voice came from behind me.

"What up Anna?" Tyler startled me  before casting his glance over at Austin "oh, trouble in paradise."

I didn't respond to his remark and instead decided I needed to get some air. I felt nauseous and the longer I watched whatever was going on, the worse it got.

I wiped the tear from my eye and made my way through the crowd and past the kitchen where Austin stood to the front door before walking onto the pristine gravel driveway.

"Anna, Anna wait!"

But I couldn't breathe, let alone respond. I just kept walking until I hit some grass and then I let all the frustration go as my body shook with silent sobs.

Maybe it was hormones but I couldn't help feeling it time to call this whole thing off and just go home. There were only a few more places to visit and I could see those later, on another trip if I needed too.

"Anna, please just wait!" He begged before taking in my appearance. "I'm going to kill my fucking cousins."

"I just want to go back."

He didn't speak again but ordered a taxi from his phone and together we went back to his aunts house in silence.
