Unforgotten Love (Austin Mahone FanFic)

Chapter 18

My mouth dropped. I was speechless; no words came out of my mouth to announce what was going through my head at the moment. Austin hasn't been back since that day at the airport and I haven't seen him since. I wanted it to be that way for a long time. I was still struggling to get over him and for him to come back and visit isn't a very swell idea.

"Brooke.. Are you okay?" I heard Renee's voice from a distance. I looked down at my trembling hands as I started to feel light headed.

"I'm going to go get you some water." She dashed to the kitchen and was back before you knew it. I took a sip of the ice chilly water and soon felt a little bit better but I still feel faint. Renee propped up some of my pillows and layed me down. 

"Lay down for a little bit you look very pale. Maybe I shouldn't have told you." I shook my head in disagreement. 

"No. No I'm glad you told me. I just need to mentally prepare myself for what is going to happen." My mind began racing with questions and theories for what might happen when Austin is in town. Will he talk to me? Will I talk to him? Does he miss me? Does he still share the same feelings he did for me before he left? What will become of the two of us? Will I be able to handle him being back? Will I remain strong without him?

"When is he coming?" I asked.

"I'm not sure. I didn't hear all of their conversation just that part about Austin."

"Well we need to find out as soon as possible. Why wouldn't the boys tell me? They know how much pain I've gone through."

"Maybe they were going to make sure Austin didn't have contact with you while he is here? I honestly don't know Brooke but that is all what I overheard. That Austin is coming back. Then I ran home to think of how I would tell you and if I would tell you." 

I nodded. "Renee hand me my phone please." A confused look came over her as she handed me my iPhone from beside her. I unlocked my screen and searched for Robert's number in my contacts. I quickly pressed call and placed my phone to my ear as it rang. 

"Hello?" Robert's voice came from the tiny speaker.

"Hey Robert. What's up?" I asked nonchalantly.

"Umm nothing much just chilling. Why?"

"Oh no reason. Would you like to come over for a little bit?"

"Yea sure I'll be over in a few."

"Great! Oh and bring Alex and Zach too please."

"Sure." A devilish grin appeared on my face as I hung up.

"What was that all about?" Renee asked.

"I'm going to have a talk with these boys." I said between my grited teeth.

****

Within a few minutes the boys were on my couch snacking on a bag of chips they took from my cabinet. Renee and I were with them discussing our day at school earlier and cruel teachers; you know unimportant stuff. I glanced over at Renee and gave her a soft nod; our signal to get the truth out. 

"So any big news or anything?" I questioned them with a smile. I saw Robert's eyes dart from Alex to Zach and back to me. Alex cleared his throat before speaking.

"Um. Nah not really. What about you?" he asked.

"Oh not much. Well.. actually there is this one thing. You see one of my dad's old time friends is coming into town to visit my dad. My dad has no idea and they have had some issues in the past so they aren't really talking. I haven't told my dad that they are coming yet. Should I? I don't want my dad to be upset at me for keeping it behind his back because someone he loved left his life and its hard for him to get over them and now they are suddenly coming back and his own daughter didn't even tell him!!!" I yelled the last part in fury. The boys sat there in silence. 

"How did you find out?" Zach asked quietly.

"HOW DID I FIND OUT?! RENEE OVERHEARD YA'LL!" They exchanged looks and hung their heads.

"WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME THAT AUSTIN IS COMING BACK?! YOU KNOW HOW MUCH HURT I'VE GONE THROUGH." My words lingered in the air of silence.

"We're sorry Brooke. We just thought that maybe there would be a possibility that if you two saw each other that you would get back together." Alex stated.

"Back together? Alex I'm sorry but I don't think that is going to happen. Austin has moved on with his life. He doesn't need me anymore. We can't be in a relationship and be 3,000 miles away from each other. I thought I explained this when we broke up?"

The boys sat there nodding in agreement.

"I just wish you would have confronted me about this before allowing him to come back. When is he coming?" I asked.

Robert looked up at me and said, "Tomorrow."
