Making it to Forever

Chapter 19: Let Me Think

(Austin's POV)
I was walking back to the house feeling terrible and sad. I loved Y/N so much and I wasn't just going to accept that she wouldn't love me anymore. She already cancelled Paris, what was she going to to next? I bet her dad found out and told her to cancel it. And about her dad, I really didn't want him to be my dad because he is just to bossy and negative about everything. I reached the house and opened the door and walked to the living room to find just my mom sitting on the couch, "where is everyone else?" I asked her. "Your dad needed to tell Y/N something very important in private," my mom said. "He's not my dad and he never will be stop saying that." I said storming up to my room. On the way up I walked past Y/N's bedroom and I couldn't help but overhear their conversation so I stood by the door and listened.
(Y/N's POV)
My dad had walked into my room and told me he had to tell me something. Could it be about what him and Michele were talking about earlier? I guess I just had to sit there and listen.
*You and your dads conversation*
Y/N: dad what do you need to tell me?
Dad: ok Y/N I know you have already been through enough today but I just really need to tell you this.
*he grabs your hand*
Y/N: just tell me dad. It's fine.
Dad: ok so you know how I told you your mother died 2 years ago?
Y/N: ya and you wouldn't even let me see her body! You wouldn't even let me come to the funeral!
Dad:'well the reason for that is... Your mom is still alive.
Y/N: what dad and you never told me? Where is she?
Dad: now that I don't know. One morning I woke up and found a note on the side of my bed that read "goodbye. You and Y/N will be better of without me. Keep her safe."
*your dad starts crying*
Y/N: dad why didn't you just tell me the truth?
*you start crying too*
Dad: because I wanted to keep you happy. I wanted you to have a wonderful life. But I guess now I'm ruining it for you anyways so I decided to tell you this.
Y/N: dad can you please leave I need some time to think.
*your dad leaves your room*
Wow and no one ever told me this. I mean I guess I can't blame my dad. He only did what was best for me to keep me safe so I guess I had no right to be mad at him. Everything just was mixed up right now and it was going to take some time to get used to. And that's when I heard a knock on my door. "Um, come in" I said unsure of who it was. It was austin. I was happy but angry to see him. "I don't want to speak to you right now, please leave," I said staring at my phone. "Y/N please talk to me. I heard what your dad said. And I'm so sorry," austin said. I looked up at him angrily. "You were listening to our conversation. That was supposed to be private!" I yelled at him. Austin came and sat beside me on the bed. "I'm sorry Y/N I just felt the need to know what was happening!" Austin said.
(Austin's POV)
"I was walking up the stairs because I had to tell you something," I said nervously. "What do you have to tell me?" Y/N asked. I pulled out a small black box. "Remember this little guy." I said nervously. "The promise ring?!" Y/N said excited but still a little mad and sad. "But austin, I don't know what to say."
