*** Eli's POV ***

I know. Some girls would be happy to have Austin Mahone tell them all this and kiss them. Why dont I, you ask? Because he said similar things. And hurt me. I spent too much time hating what I had let him do to me, I'm so close to being on the show that could help with Lucy's kemo. I cant let a guy take this from me. No matter how sweet and gentle he is.

Once our kiss was over, we just looked in each others eyes. I tried to look away, blushing from the 'Awws' and 'Ooos' from the boys and everyone coming.

"Eli," Austin whispered to me as my head turned, "you have to believe, I didnt mean to hurt you. I didnt know how to tell you. I thought you would get over it, because you were strong. I wanted to tell you but it was so hard to just come out and say it. I know, I dont deserve your acceptance. But dont let this get in the way of Lucys health and your happiness. I understand if you dont wanna see me again but you need to know, you mean a hell of a lot to me. And I'm already the dumbest person for letting you get away once, but not this time. Im not letting you walk away from your dream." I looked at his eyes, they were filled with sorrow. I saw the bags under his eyes. Had he not been sleeping like me?

"Fine I'll stay. For Lucy... but Austin, we cant.." my voice trailed off, because I knew I couldnt handle it. I just got out of his grasp, stepping backwards. He just walked towards me again. "Austin, like you said, you let me go. The first time. You didnt fight to tell me the truth. It wouldve been easier knowing we couldve had a chance if we were allowed to. But when 'you' told me you had a girlfriend, I felt like everything I THOUGHT we had was a lie. Knowing it wasnt, does help. But you didnt fight at all. You did let me go. I will get over you, soon. But for now, I cant.. We cant."

I touched my hand to his cheek gently, showing him I meant what I said in now harmful way. He put his hand on top of mine, sending chills throughout spine. I enveloped him in a hug and he grabbed my waist, no hesitiation. After a couple minutes, i pulled back, to look in his eyes, once again. I kissed his cheek, lightly. I let go of him all together and turned around to walk away. Another tear fell.

How can I cry so much over a guy I barely knew? A question I'll probably never have an answer to. I got to our room, and turned around. Only to see Austin, in the same spot I left him, looking down and touching his cheek.

"Hey, don't frown you'll get wrinkles, babes." He looked up at me, I winked at him and he laughed. I missed that.

"OH NO! QUICK! MAKE ME SMILE!!!" I ran back to him and jumped on him. I heard him laugh, which of course made me laugh. We both fell, me still on top of him. I fell to his side and we sat there laughing at each others' laughs. I tilted my head, to notice him looking at me already. I forgot Genesis and the other boys were still watching. "Its good to see you smile."

"Especially when youre the reason?" I smiled, quoting what he said just a few nights ago. He laughed and nodded. "Well, hopefully, now that I have closure, I can smile alot more." He got up and helped me. "Thanks.. Loser." I flashed a cheeky smile at him and he just tickled me.

"Whos a loser!?!?!" He kept asking me as he tickled me.

" I will NOT give in!!"

"Say Im not a loser. Or say youre sorry." I shook my head no. "Who's a loser?"

"LOUIS!!!!!!"

"Thank yo-"

"HEY! I AM NOT!" I heard Louis across the hall. Me and Austin burst in to laughter reassuring him he was, indeed, a loser. Everyone except Harry, agreed. Aw. Larry Stylinson.

"Yo Jenny? We better get showered and pack before other girls wake up." I yelled at her. She agreed and hugged all the boys. Hers and Liam's hug lasted longer than the others. "She soooo likes him" I whispered to Austin.

"Well thats good." I looked at him quizzicaly. "He's crazy about her! He always just watches her get up and dance around with Teal and Abby."

"I knew it! Oh my gosh."

Genesis walked over to us finally and said she was ready. I hugged Austin one last time, happy we were on speaking terms again.

Me and Genesis walked back to the room and she got in the shower, and I checked Twitter. I think now taht Im out of my slump, I can tweet people.

@OSnapItsEli: hey guys! WE FIND OUT WHO MAKES IT TO LIVE SHOWS TODAY. Super excited. RT if you are too! xx

I immediately got replies.

" @myusernamesucks: totally! !!! Good luck ! I love you ELI!!!xoxo"
"@OSnapItsEli @myusernamesucks I love you too! xoxo :*"

Once I replied to one, a million more came in. One made me really mad.
"@weheartit: Uh, no. I actually hope you die. Or one of your parents does. #TeamAbby."
"@OSnapItsEli @weheartit One of my parents is dead. Abbys my best friend."
"@weheartit: So sorry. Had no clue."

Inconsiderate much?

Once Genesis was out of the shower, I ran in. It was 8:00 and the girls were gonna wake up any moment.

Tonight, my life changes forever.
