He made me happy. So so happy, like Narnia. I don't know. I'm rambling. It's been awhile since I've seen Austin. I mean- I should have gotten use to it by now. I mean well, I see him all the time on posters, Twitter, magazines, where ever, but I never see him in person anymore. It's different.

~~~

Maybe I should introduce myself before I begin rambling about my life. Well uh, my name is Scarlett. I'm a bit awkward and well, um... I fell in love once before. His name was Austin Mahone.

We met one year ago. He was sitting underneath this tree. Our tree...

~~~

I remember that it was a sunny day, typical because it was Florida. I mean everyone assumes it's always raining down here for some reason but no, it's like a milder version of California. It was just like any other hot, summer day. I was glad that school was out, and I didn't have to deal with Lilly- the school slut who made my life miserable. Clique I know but it's whatever. Summer was so refreshing. It was like no one could  mess with me or hurt me. Summer was my safe haven from the abuse of the wilderness  known only as high school.

June 30th- I will always remember that day. It was the day I met him. He was under the tree, just sitting there reading or at least pretending to read. Relaxing in a simple, red shirt and basketball shorts or whatever those are called. He was the most gorgeous boy I have ever seen. His hair was wavy brown, a simple pukka necklace graced his neck. His skin was tan and his lips were full. And his eyes... even from where I was standing, I could see that his eyes sparkled. They were a brilliant shade of green and brown and when he smiled, the tips of his eyes crinkled. He was my definition of perfect.

I had never seen him before; I remember thinking that he must have just moved in. I heard someone had bought the Kim's old house, but who would have guessed that the new owners would have such a beautiful son. I could feel myself staring, but I mean, which girl wasn't? And he knew I was staring too.

"Hey," He looked straight at me beckoning me over. His eyes crinkled, and a smile played on his lips. He set the book aside and looked straight at me. 

I was at a lost for words. The heat rose to my cheeks, and I was flustered. I remember subconsciously fixing my hair and straightening my clothes.

"I'm talking to you." He pointed at me. "Girl with the white shirt, shorts, you know the blondie." He gave me a tiny smirk. God he was perfect. 

"Um... hi."  My voice came out weak; my knees began to buckle underneath me. I was sweating gallons. It wasn't everyday that a hot guy addressed me.

"I'm Austin." He gave another small smile that showed his braces. "I noticed you were staring." He gave a chuckle. Austin fiddled with his pukka necklace before glancing up and giving another smirk. 

"I wasn't, I don't," I couldn't form a coherent sentence. Sure, I was staring but did he really have to call me out? I felt anger roll over me as I watched his perfect little smirk. 

As if sensing my impatience and anger, he said, "It's okay," his voice softened, "I don't bite." He ran his hand through his hair and stood up, dusting the invisible pieces of grass off his shorts.

I swallowed and adverted my eyes. 

"What's your name?" His voice was gentle and carried a soft melody. He probably had an amazing singing voice.

"Scarlett." I tucked a piece of hair behind my ears and lowered my gaze, my eyes briefly landed near his crotch before they lowered to the ground: get your shit together, Scarlett. 

"Nice to meet you Scarlett. As I said before, I'm Austin." He smiled at me... oh dear lord his smile was so, so perfect. His teeth were white and perfectly straight and his lips- oh my lord. 

"Um, hi Aus- Austin." My voice sounded pathetic. I probably looked weak and pathetic too. I grabbed a strand of hair and began to twirl it around my fingers. 

"Can I get a tour around here?" He winked, "I'm sorta new around here." He flashed me another smile.

"Sure..."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

That one word, "Sure" changed my life completely. I know this sounds cheesy and like a typical chick- flick, but I loved him. I fell in love. And I will never ever love anyone else like I loved him. The way he sang me to sleep, the way his hair was always messy when he woke up, the way he smelled... everything about him had me under his spell. He was something special. And best of all, he was mine. All mine. 

Something about the idea about him being mine will never leave. 

I guess you can say that I was that one child in pre-school that never learned how to share her toys with the other kids. She never played with anyone else because she never knew how to share. It wasn't like she wasn't capable of sharing, she just didn't want to. She never got along with most people, and she was that weird child. The one you assumed ate glue or some other weird stuff. Yup, I was that child.

I never wanted to let Austin go. I wanted him to be mine forever.

But then he left and never came back. And me? Well I still held onto that feeling. I still love him, miss him, think of him and it breaks me down. It tears me down. It kills me slowly and I can't do anything about it. I can't go see him or talk to him... I'm dying on the inside. 

He made me complete once, but now he just makes me... well, sad.
