***Elis POV***
I fell asleep in Austins arms shortlt after he did. I closed my eyes at first to see exactly what he would do. He played with my hair and hummed an amazing song that I didn't recognize.
When he fell asleep, I kissed his lips gently. Though he didnt kiss back I felt the biggest butterflies.
I fell asleep with a smile on my face in less than a minute.
I started dreaming about me and Austin. We were singing a song and dancing in basketball shorts. It looked adorable but weird at the same time. Once it was over, I saw us walking up stairs in to my room and there were roses everywhere. Once again he sang a song I never knew but then in the end he told me he loved me.
Though it was a dream, I felt De Ja Vue. I felt like everything was just a reminder of what this boy has done for me. I felt like everything was just replaying the relationship I've wanted forever.
I woke up then and there and saw the empty spot next to me where I thought I was laying with Austin.
I thought he was gonna stay but I thought different. But I guess I don't exactly know him.
I just closed my eyes again and dreamt of a new begining. One where my dad was here, Lucy was healthy, my dream was still a dream and I knew my life. I Just let go of everything and sat up. I let tears slip out.
My last memory was the memory of when my uncle was babysitting me when I was 8. He helped me put on my yellow Dora pajamas and told me they were on backwards. He proceeded to help me and in doing so he started raping me. At the time I was confused. Oblivious to what was happening. He touched me in places and he did unmentionable things. I tried so hard to get the memory out of my head. I felt cheap when I found out what it was he was doing. He told me to never tell anyone or he would hurt me so I never told my family. I kept this a secret for 7 years and the memory didn't come back until now. I let the tears fall until my eyes were dry.
I allowed myself to lay back down finally. I stared at the ceiling trhing my best to remember what happened after he did that to me. I remember mom crying and dad not there. I remember Lucy being lost and me listening in on the doctors phone call. The words he said that made my mother drop the phone on the ground along with her knees.
She fell to the ground and sat there. The knife on the counter and the celery half chopped up. Her back against the fridge and her head in her hands. She looked so lost and broken. That was the day I lost my father.
I started remembering dads funeral. I was 12 and Lucy was 7. I wore a black dress that went up to my knees with black converse. My dress was a cupcake dress and it had lace on the top while it was silk on the bottom. I had it for a different occasion but it worked perfectly now.
I remember everyone giving a speech and the tissues on the ground. My mom handed me her speech an told me to read it for her. I remember it distinctly.
'my dearest husband. you've blessed me with two wonderful and beautiful daughters. you've blessed me with happiness along with sadness and you've blessed me with the feeling of love and kindness. we broke up once and we lost each other for years. meeting up again with you was the best mistake I ever made. we promised till death do us part but even now that your gone I shall love you forever and a day. Like Our Promise. I promise to take care of these girls and protect them with every fiber of my being. To help them pursue their dreams and not come in between. to help them in sickness and to help them in health. this was our promise. I will keep it and take it to my grave. I love you so much and I wish we could have one last hug. id never let go. but I promise I wont let go now either. See you soon.'
I read it without a problem but everyone there was in tears. My mother was in hysterics as well.
I remembered every big event in my life. From my first day in High School to Getting my studio.
I finally remembered the day of X Factor. I remembered Austin. I remembered the way I felt when we kissed for the first time and the last time.
I remember the hurt I felt when I felt heart broken. I remember the love I feel when I was with him. But best of all, I remember his secureness.
I wanted to run up to him and kiss him and tell him I'm alright. I wanna tell him I remember him. I just need to remind him that he really IS the only one for me. I wanna hold him in my arms and tell him how sorry I am for the pain I've cause and how sorry I am that I made him feel unwanted.
I sat up and awaited his company again.
I watched the clock which said 5:47. I waited and waited and finally I gave up. It was 6:34 and he hadn't returned.
I felt like just running. Out of this life. Out of everything. I trusted him to be here and now he's gone. I just layed back down and gave up. I was done waiting on someone who didn't need to be waited on.
***** (4 hours Later) ********
I woke up to the smell of roses and daisies.
I opened my eyes and saw stuffed animals, cookies, cupcakes, balloons, different bouquets, and many other sweet things saying 'Get Well Soon'
One specific bouquet caught my eye. The roses were deep red but weren't real. I could tell by the look.
I grabbed the card off the stick and opened it.
'Hey babe. I was gone to paint roses red. Its corny to buy a fake flower and say Ill love you till the rose dies. I made these flowers and painted 'em myself. Pretty ? Look in a mirror.<3 xx -Austin'
So that's where he had gone.
Where is he now?
As if on cue, Austin walked in and sat down with legs criss crossed at the end of my bed across from me. I sat up and sat exactly like him except, facing towards him.
I smiled at his idotic facial expression and he didn't understand anything.
"What, weirdo?" He laughed at me.
"I remember."
"Remember what?"
"You."
"Remember me?"
"Yes. You. The X Factor audition. The waltz. The first kiss. The last kiss. The hurt. The pain."
"You remember!?!"
"Yes. But the most important thing I remember is."
"Is....." He grew with anticipation. "Whay!?"
"The love I feel when I do this." I leaned over to him and kissed his lips. He kissed mine back without hesitation and when we pulled back, my words came out. I couldn't go longet without him knowing how I felt today. "I love you Austin. Forever. And A Day"
