Unexpected Love (Austin Taylor)

14: Day of parents Death

*2 days later*

As they stepped out of the hotel, Camilla took a deep breath and led Austin to the cemetery. She hadn't been back here since her parents' funeral, and the thought of seeing their graves again made her feel a mix of emotions - sadness, nostalgia, and a sense of closure.

Austin stayed close by her side, holding her hand tightly as they walked through the gates. Camilla's eyes scanned the rows of headstones, searching for the ones with her parents' names. When she found them, she felt a lump form in her throat and her eyes began to well up with tears.

Austin squeezed her hand reassuringly. "It's okay, Camilla," he said softly. "I'm here for you."

Camilla nodded, trying to compose herself. She walked over to the graves, Austin by her side, and knelt down beside them. She ran her fingers over the cool stone, feeling a sense of comfort in the familiar touch.

"Mom...Dad," she whispered, her voice shaking. "I've missed you so much. It's been so long since I've seen your faces or heard your voices."

Tears began to stream down her face as she poured out her heart to her parents' memory. Austin listened attentively, his eyes filled with compassion and understanding.

"I've found someone special," Camilla continued. "His name is Austin. He's kind and gentle, and he loves me for who I am. I know you would love him too."

Camilla's words became muffled as she buried her face in her hands, overcome with grief. Austin wrapped his arms around her, holding her close as she sobbed uncontrollably.

"It's okay, Camilla," he whispered into her ear. "You're not alone anymore. I'm here for you, and I'll always be here for you."

As they sat there together, Camilla felt a sense of peace wash over her. She knew that her parents were gone, but with Austin by her side, she felt like she could face anything that came their way.

After a while, Camilla's tears subsided, and she sat up straighter. She looked at Austin, his eyes still red from crying along with her.

"Thank you," she said softly. "For being here for me."

Austin smiled and wiped away his own tears. "I'll always be here for you," he said.

As they stood up to leave, Camilla felt a sense of closure. She knew that she would always carry the pain of losing her parents with her, but with Austin by her side, she felt like she could move forward.

Together, they walked back to the hotel, hand in hand, ready to face whatever lay ahead.
