His eyes. Those beautiful glistening hazel eyes. The sparkle was gone. Like someone had stabbed him in the stomach and taken all the joy in his life away. That person was me.
"What.. what are you talking about?"
I sighed and drew in a breath.
"Austin... when we were at the party yesterday I went upstairs to use the restroom. I didn't know where I was going and when I went upstairs I opened the wrong door. I saw Scarlette and Ryan half naked on top of the bed. I said I was sorry and shut the door behind me as I left. Neither of them followed me. I ran out of the house because I didn't know what to do. I didn't know how to tell you. I didn't want to tell you like this but I can't have sex with you because I had to get that off my chest." Done. I finally told him everything. Now we should be good now. Right? Wrong.
"why... why would she do that to me. After all we've been through. I though Scarlette was different. I truly loved her. She was so beautiful and unlike all the others. I never thought it would be her." Austin stopped. His facial expression changed. Something changed within him.
Austin was furious. He was so mad you could almost see the smoke steaming out from his ears. I knew I was about to get a huge agruement from him. There will be voices raised and maybe a few items thrown. But I had to take it. It was his girlfriend doing it with one of his best friends. Who wouldn't be mad at something like this?
"YOU'RE LYING. WHY WOULD YOU TELL ME SOMETHING LIKE THAT. ITS BULLSHIT BROOKE. I THOUGHT WE WERE FRIENDS. SCARLETTE WOULD NEVER DO ANYTHING LIKE THAT TO ME. I KNOW WHAT YOU'RE DOING BROOKE. YOU JUST WANT TO BREAK US UP. WELL YOU CANT BROOKE. I LOVE SCARLETTE AND NOTHING WILL CHANGE THAT. NOTHING. NOT EVEN A LOSER LIKE YOU." That hit me like a ton of bricks. What just happened? Why was it now my fault? There was something wrong with Austin. Like he was under her spell or something. I would never lie to him. Why is he doing this to me?
"Get out. Just get out." He said between clenched jaws. A lump formed in my throat and my eyes became watery. Before you knew it I was bawling my eyes out right there on Austin's bed pleading him to believe me. My mascara was running but I didn't care. Austin means more to me than anyone will know. I can't let him fall under her spell.
"Austin PLEASE! YOU CAN'T DO THIS TO ME. PLEASE AUSTIN. I NEED YOU TO BELIEVE ME. I AM TELLING THE TRUTH. WE'VE BEEN BEST FRIENDS FOR YEARS. YOU HAVE TO BELIEVE ME. I WOULD NEVER LIE TO YOU. I DON'T WANT TO SEE YOU GET HURT AGAIN. THAT'S WHY I TOLD YOU. IT'S NOT A LIE. PLEASE BELIEVE ME AUSTIN." I was on my knees crying hard at his feet. My heart was breaking because I can't imagine my life without Austin. He can't be mad at me. I love him too much to let him go.
Austin stood up from the bed and looked me in the eyes and said, "Go." and walked to his window. His back facing me. I wiped away the tears on my face and gathered my things. I walked to the door and turned back to him and said, "I'm sorry. But I hope you know... I love you." and with that I went down the hallway to meet my dad in the kitchen.
* * *
I told my dad and Michele Austin and I had an agrument and we wanted to be away from each other for a while. A shocked expression came over them but then they nodded in agreement. My father escorted me out to our car after saying goodbye to Michele and thanking her for the breakfast. The drive back home was awkard since my dad knew not to ask what had happened. Actually I am surprised they didn't hear by the volume Austin was yelling at me.
As soon as I got home I sprinted to my room slamming the door behind me. The tears bursted out like a fire hose. I burried my head in my pillow and screamed. Tears soaked my pillow but I didn't care. Austin just broke my heart into a million pieces. I had to let all my cries out. I would never love someone as much as I love him. Why can't he see that. What about love? ... What about all the promises? Oh Austin how could you do this to me.
I felt a vibration coming from my back pocket where my phone was located. Without lifting my head, I slid my iPhone out of my jeans. I read the person's name who sent the message and what the text said. It was from Renee. She wanted to know if I wanted to go see a movie with her around 2 at the mall. I glanced at the alarm clock on my nightstand to see it was already 1 and I've been crying for a few hours now. I smiled as I text her back saying I would love to go with her.
We made a few plans on what were were going to do then I walked to the kitchen to ask my dad if I could go. Of course he said okay since he thought I needed to make some new friends. Renee and her mom would come to pick me up at my house then drop us off at the mall.
I decided to wear something cute but comfortable because I was still feeling heartbroken over what happened at breakfast. So I wore a pastel pink crop tee with sweats and my vans and pulled my hair into a messy bun. The doorbell rang so I grabbed my phone and headed to open it. Stood there was Renee with her voluminous red curly hair and a huge smile on her face. Her mom was waiting in the car with one of her younger sistesr in the back seat who was five and the other one in the front seat who was nine.
I bid my father goodbye and followed Renee to the car. I climbed in and introduced myself to her mom and sisters. They welcomed me with warm smiles and I felt safe with them. I sat between Renee and Gabby on the ride to the mall. They bickered back and forth but they really should be grateful they have each other and a mother to take them places. I'm blessed to be alive right now.
When we reached the mall, Renee climbed out of the back seat and I followed her out. I thanked her mom for driving me and said goodbye. Renee and I walked side by side into the air conditioned and slightly crowded local mall. We headed straight for the movie theaters to purchase our tickets.
"Two tickets for New Moon at 4:35 please."
"Okay that will be 18.74" I handed Renee my half and she included her money to pay. We were handed our tickets and directions on where to go. We exited the line and turned into the lobby. A young man took our tickets and tore off the bottom. He pointed to the direction where our movie will be playing. We had a few minutes to spare so we walked towards the concession stand. I just bought skittles and a coke because they are my weakness and I had previously eaten Michele's great cooking.
After purchasing our snacks and beverages we walked towards the theater. The previews of future movies began playing on the big screen and we knew we were just in time. When we walked in we stopped to find a pair of empty seats where we could have a good view of the movie. We found two sits at the near top. But we also found something else.
