AWOKEN (Third Book Of The Nightmare Series)

Chapter 9: Novocaine

Chapter 9: Novocaine

*Olivia POV*

The few hours it took home, consisted of Starbucks coffee, Monster Energy drinks, a lot of McDonald's and Wendy's, and me sleeping constantly.

I was tired, there's not lying about that.

My dad kept at his smart ass remarks with me whenever I tried showing him up in whatever smart ass remark I had.

But I knew my parents were upset with me, I'm pretty sure they think that Austin forced me to leave with him when he didn't. He tried talking me out of it. He didn't want to leave but he did, because it was what I wanted to do.

"Are we almost home?"

"Yeah just a couple more minutes. But I'm sure you know that me and your mother want to talk to you about this and let you know what your consequences are. You aren't getting away with this unpunished."

"I know. I figured that was going to happen anyways."

"Good. I talked to your mother and we decided that we'll talk about it tomorrow though, so we can let you rest and get cleaned up." I nodded, seeing the huge houses started to appear.

I was scared shitless of what was going to happen. I'm not scared of my parents but, I've never been in this much trouble before. Okay so once when I was like 3, I stole a pack of gum and I got an ear and a half full how it was bad to steal and I would be punished so horribly if I ever even thought about it again.

But I know they only do it because they love me and they don't want me to turn into a little brat.

That was the problem at school though. Everyone always thought I got what I want and that was it, that's why I get so involved into my schools athletic department is so they can see I'm not a brat, I'm actually a really good person.

But that doesn't mean girls accepted me though.

When Austin was younger he was bullied because he was weird, well people thought he was weird. And he was chubby. But I didn't mind. My parents always told me to not judge a person by their skin but how they treat others. And he treated me nicely plus he was my best friend. There was no leaving him. But in 6th grade puberty hit him like a truck and every girl suddenly wanted him, but he turned them down and kept me around because I was there when no one else was.

As we approached my house, I saw Austin's dad standing in his yard, mowing the lawn like his son wasn't in Pennsylvania.

"Now Livi, I don't want you having anymore contact with them. I want you to make some new friends and try and steer away from him. I'm only doing this because I love you."

"I know dad. I know. But I'm going to head in and take a shower then go to bed. See you tomorrow." He nodded, while I walked into the house.

I probably looked like shit. Mason and Jase were in bed and my mom was sitting on the couch reading a book.

"Hi mama." She looked up and her bright brown eyes connected with mine.

"Oh baby. I missed you so much. Come here sweetie." I smiled, as my mom hugged me. I felt loved when I was with my mom.

She just understood.

Soon the door opened, closed and was locked behind while my dad came in and smiled.

"Hey baby." My mom let go of me to kiss my dad. They've been gone probably a day or two and their all over each other.

I wanted love like that.

"Night parents." I smiled, then left to my room. I had to take a shower then go to bed. Tomorrow would be hell.

*Next Day*

At around 10 am I woke up, seeing my clock glow the red color that showed the time. My siblings were in school right now, I figured they would let me stay home to talk about my consequences.

I mean I ran away with Austin.. The son of my dad's mortal enemy.. There's got to be something there. I threw my hair into a bun, and walked downstairs like a zombie.

My parents were at the table holding a piece of paper in their hands with a pen.

Great.

When my parents punished us, they write a freaking contract and made us sign it and would hang it up somewhere in the house and had to do whatever it said for how long we were grounded.

Both my parents have horrible memory do it was an easy way to remember our punishments.

"Hi momma, daddy." I smiled, barely, and went to find my iced coffee Starbucks.

I had a collection in the fridge so I didn't have to go to a gas station and get one everyday.

"Hi sweetie. Do you want some breakfast?"

"No. I think I'll stick to my Starbucks."

"Aren't athletes not supposed to have coffee during the season?"

"But nobody follows that rule. So what's my punishment?"

I saw the paper they handed me and there was nothing on it.

It was empty.

"What?"

"We believe that you just wanted to prove a point. That Austin was good. But he isn't obviously. So, we aren't punishing you. But you can't have any contact with him anymore. No more Austin. Understood?"

"Yeah of course.. But dad you said yesterday that I would get punished.."

"I thought about it.. And honestly you're just a kid, and I was doing a hell of a lot worse stuff when I was your age and I thought it was okay. But we also wanted to talk to you about something else.."

"What?"

"Our story.."

"I thought you guys didn't want us to know it because it wasn't our business.."

"Your mother and I believe you are old enough to know what we did and why we fell in love."

"Really?"

"Yes. But first we are going to allow you to ask questions, and fill in any blanks. But you have to promise us you can't tell your brothers this yet.. They aren't ready to hear what happened between us."

"Of course I won't tell." I was scared. This was my parents story, this is how they fell in love.

"Okay.. Any questions?"

"How old were you guys when you fell in love?"

"I was 16 and your father was 23."

Oh wow.

"How did you guys meet?" They stiffened.. Great.

"My father sold me into a sex slave industry when I was 12. I was in it for 4 years until I met your father."

"How did you guys know you were in love?"

"There was no indication really.. We just knew it. Your Aunt Tapanga actually tried talking me out of Jason. Like he was a disease."

"Why did you guys break up for two years?"

"I cheated on your mom with a friend of hers."

"Why?"

"I honestly can't remember. But I do remember the look on your mothers face when she saw us. It was absolutely heartbreaking."

"Why didn't you fight harder?"

"I did. I nearly killed myself over those two years because I didn't have Alison by my side. I didn't know about you until I saw her again with bright purple hair working at a bar I was at, then a day later she came by the house and you were with her.. I instantly knew you were mine. You could just tell."

"What if I told you I was in love with Austin?"

**************
