Unforgotten Love (Austin Mahone FanFic)

Chapter 9

The next morning I awoke with a huge smile on my face. The kiss scence from last night replayed in my mind throughout my day. That is until I got to school to witness Scarlette all over Austin in the hallway. I had to admit one thing, she was always one step ahead of me and she knew exactly what she was doing. I stopped dead in my tracks but then I realized something, She wants you to see them. Don't let her get to you. Be smart. Walk away. So I listened to my conscience and lifted my chin and strutted off to homeroom. Austin didn't even see me walk away he was so mezmorized by Scarlette but she saw and I saw the fumes escaping from her head.

I walked into Mrs. Lee's classroom and sat down where I sat yesterday. Right before the tardy bell rang Austin entered the class. He slid into his chair right beside me and winked at me. Oh dear goodness does he know what he's doing to me? Butterflies began fluttering around in my stomach as I tried to remain calm and focused on my homework infront of me. I started to wonder if he remembered the kiss from last night. Did he want to remember? It felt as if he couldn't forget... I couldn't forget. Or was he just playing with me? My thoughts were interupted when a hand was placed on mine. I looked to find the owner and of course it was him.

"Brooke I dont know what came over me last night.. I'm sorry. I don't want to make things awkward between us. I really like you... but I'm in love with Scarlette. I'm really sorry. Can we just stay friends?"

My heart broke. Broke into a million of pieces. My mouth went dry and it soon became difficult to swallow. Tears began to fill my eyes and my vision blurred. Brooke Michelle Mitchell don't you dare let this boy see you cry. You do not love him. He does not love you. Get over him. Don't cry over him. My conscience was right. He doesn't love me.

"Do you even know what love is Austin? Because I really don't think you do. And I also really don't think Scarlette loves you back." I tried my best to keep my voice to the minimum so other students in the class would not be able to hear our conversation. At the same time I tried to hold back the tears, but I knew it wouln't be long until they would start streaming down my face like a waterfall. Luck soon struck and the bell rang releasing us from homeroom to go to 1st period. I jolted out of the classroom with my belongings and ran straight towards the bathroom where I released the tears. I wasn't going to go to 1st period like this, so I stayed in the girls bathroom and cried. I decided to call my dad to tell him I wasn't feeling too good and to come pick me up. It worked and within a few minutes my dad was waiting at the office.

When I got home I flopped down on my mattress and continued to cry my eyes out. How did Austin not feel the connection i felt last night. Was he playing with my emotions? Had he became a total jerk in the years I was gone? Had he changed? Had the feelings we shared no more? I thought of all these questions as tears quickly rolled down my cheecks. A heavy knock came on my door informing me that my dad wanted entrance to my room. I knew he was going to ask me questions on why I was crying; I had to find answers and fast. 

"Honey? Are you okay? May I come in?" I wiped away my tears with the back of my hand and took a deep breathe. I lifted my chest and swung my legs to the side of my bed. I stood to walk over to the door to let my father in. A worried expression showed on my dad's face as he followed me and sat down beside me on the mattress. I couldn't hold it in anymore; I couldn't lie to the one who loves me. I broke down crying as I told my father everything about Austin and I. I told him the feelings we shared before I moved and what I thought we shared recently. I explained the drama between Scarlette and I and the reasons behind it all.

"Aww sweetie I am so sorry. But... Brooke.. what are you going to do about Ryan's party tonight? You promised Austin you would go." Fuck! I had totally forgotten about the party. What the hell was I going to do? I was going to hang out with Austin but it would be so awkward after all that happened this morning. I didn't know anyone at the school and I don't want to be alone at Ryan's party! I would look like such a loner all by myself! That would make me a target for bullys and bitches. What was I going to do?

"I think you should go and maybe you could work things out with Austin. Or you might meet a new friend there. You never know. Just go and try your best to have fun." My dad was right. I would just have to suck it up and pretend like it didn't happen. Try to make the best of it. I thanked my dad for the advice and hugged him tight. I clicked the home button on my iPhone and read the time; 6:30. 

"omg! I only have 30 minutes til Austin will be here! I have to hurry!" 

"Okay I'll be waiting for you in the living room." He walked out and shut the door behind to let me change. I had already pre picked out an outfit for tonight and it was waiting for me on my closet door. It was a lacy pink tank top with black skinny jeans that I was planning to wear with my new black combat boots. It was girly yet it looked like I wasnt trying too hard to be fancy. After all it was only a high school party it wasnt a banquet or anything so what would be the point in wearing a dress. I left my hair as it was which is naturally straight. I outlined my deep brown eyes with dark black eyeliner and applied mascara to my long lashes. I grabbed my brush and applied rosey pink blush to my cheeks. I then layered pink lipgloss on my plup lips.

I grabbed my phone and dashed into the living room where my dad was waiting. A smiled appeared on his face as we heard a knock on the door. My dad walked over to the entrance and opened it to reveal Austin's sharp image. He was dressed in a white tee and a white snapback to match. He's light blue jeans made his outfit even more perfect. That boy never failed to dress in fashion and it looked damn good on him too. He caught my gaze and smiled.

"You look beautiful Brooke." I blushed a little as I thanked him.

"Remember Austin if you hurt my little girl I will make sure you get a fair share of pain as well." I playfully hit my dad in the arm as I protested his comment.

"Don't worry sir, she's in good hands. I wont hurt her." He held out his hand and I gently placed my hand in his as he lead me outside to his car. I waved my dad goodbye as Austin opened the passanger door for me. I sat in the seat and put my seat belt on as Austin climbed in the driver seat and reversed out of the driveway. We were about a block away when Austin pulled over on the side of the road.

"Brooke I'm really sorry about earlier.. I didn't mean to upset you. I hope you will forgive me.. are we okay?"

"Yea I understand Austin. Its fine. I'm over it anyways. Let's just have fun tonight okay?"

"Okay" He said with a smile and continued driving. After a few minutes we began hearing music blasting at an extreme level and people laughing and talking. Cars were parked on both sides of the street making Austin park a few houses down from Ryan's.

We got off the car and walked up the the door where we were welcomed with the strong scent of alcohol and the ear busting music. A group of boys welcomed Austin with handshakes and I stood next to Austin like a stick. He introduced me to a few of them then lead me to the living room where his friends were seated. Each one of them had a beer in their hands and looked like they had been drinking for a while now.

Couples were everywhere I turned my head; all making out in different spots of the house. I chatted with a few girls there at the party but eventually they all left to have 'private time' with their boyfriends upstairs. So I sat there on Ryan's couch awkwardly while Austin talked with his friends about who knows what. Austin didnt take a drop of alcohol which impressed me very much.

I finally got so bored I got up and asked Austin where the restroom was located. He pointed me to the direction it was and continued his conversation with a cute blonde named Lucas. So I walked over to the end of the stairs and began swerving through couples kissing on the steps. When I got to the second floor I found more guests. There was a closed door at the end of the hall and judging by the shape I guessed it was the bathroom. I made my way to the door and grasped the cold handle. I twisted the knob and swung the door open. To my surprise it wasn't the restroom, instead it was a master bedroom. And ontop of the bed half-naked, his lips on her neck, caught in the act, was Ryan and guess who. That's right. Scarlette.
