Austin's POV

Only her. I only want her. She's the one I want. She's the one I need. I don't care. It's been two weeks since that day at the engagement BBQ party. I walked towards her door not cowering this time and knocked. I heard fumbling on the other side and soon the door opened to a sick looking Natalie who look like she just woke up and puked.

"Austin.. What are you doing here?" She said softly wiping the excess puk on the side of her mouth.

"I came to say sorry." I said and she nodded an okay and allowed me in. We sat on the couch and she motioned for me to tell her more.

"You did mean everything to me. You still  

do. I was so stupid. Natalie, just please forgive me. Give me one more chance. Let me show you, how much I care for you. I promise you won't regret it." I said and she sighed rubbing her belly making my eyebrows furrow. She then burst into tears and I went instinctly wrapping my arms around her as she cried.

"I can't... I'm-I'm-" She started to say but I cut her off before she could finish.

"Shhh. Its fine. Whatever it is I'll still love you." I said soothingingly rubbing her back softly.

"Really?" She said warily.

"Really." I said firmly. She then spent at least 2 minutes in deep thought. When she finally spoke.

"I can't. Please leave." She said softly.

"I-"

"Leave!" She said louder. I may sound like a girl right now, but it hurt so much to know she wanted me to leave. I went towards the door as she followed. I opened the door and right when i was about to leave, she whispered sometimes quietly but I couldn't quite catch it. She closed the door as I exited and I couldn't help but feel rejected. Is this a sign? I mean no ones ever made me feel the way Natalie's have. She's still the one in my eyes. She'll always be... At least hopefully.

Natalie's POV

I don't know what I wanna do. About this or that. Maybe I should just take some time off from everyone. It's gonna come out sooner or later but, how can I tell everyone. It's just to much. I know Stefan deserves to know, but I can't right now. Not with everything going on. It's to much. I need, I need my best friend. I need Kat. The one whom had helped me with everything before. We drifted so much ever since she left and I just miss her. And the others, I met when I was in school. I'm gonna meet up with Kat first and maybe I can bring Kat here with me to hang with the others. Yeah, sounds like a plan. Help me get my mind off things for now. Chicago here I come, once again.

@ CHICAGO AIRPORT

I had arranged a phone call with my Aunt and Uncle about coming over and they said it had been fine as long as I don't screw anything up. My brother had been staying with them ever since him and Whitney happened. The whorebag, remember? It's funny how whenever me and my brother are apart from each other we find each other. Like home sweet hell. I was waiting for my Aunt right now but I hadn't seen her yet so I was currently playing Temple Run.

"Natalie, we don't have all day to wait!" My Aunt hissed out making me scowl at her and muttering an 'I love you too.' I hopped in the car and we drove in silence. We arrived at the house and I noticed it clearly. The homey feeling it gave off, and its garden whom my aunt worked on very hard. I don't know why, but she always loved working in the garden. No joke.

"You can go upstairs and unpack while I make dinner." She said sternly and I nodded and went upstairs looking at all the pictures hung up on the wall. I missed home, but I missed freedom. I remember my life alone was full of drama and still is certainly, but I was happy. I really was. It never hit me until now, I really was happy with Stefan. And or Austin. He was my first love, and always will be but, I just I don't know. Honestly. I arrived in front of the guest room that I use to stay in at times when I slept over at. I unpacked all my belongings starting from undies to shirts and pants plus dresses. I soon decided to get dressed in a sun dress from Abercrombie that was flowery with some sandals and put my hair in an pony tail with light wavy curls in it. I went back downstairs to see them already eating without me. Wow. What a sight.
