Lost (A Austin Mahone Fanfiction) * ON HOLD*

Lost-Chapter Seventeen

Lost-Chapter 17

The limo had barely stopped when Austin opened the back door and jumped out, with me on his heels. I shouted a thank you to the driver before slamming the door and running to catch up to Austin who was now talking with the receptionist.
"4th floor room 22." She read to him off the computer, he took off and I yelled another thank you to her as I followed Austin down the hall towards the elevators. He pressed the up button and about 10 seconds passed before he gave an loud, annoyed sigh.
"What is taking so long!?" He shouted banging on the wall, I stood there not sure of what to do. He looked around then took off again, going through a closed door. I looked at the sign above the door Stairs great. I let out an extremely loud breath and pushed open the door making my way up the four flights of stairs taking them 2 at a time. When I came to the right floor I yanked the door open just in time to see Austin slip into one not too far away from me to the right. I sighed and walked over to it when something caught my eye. I looked to my left and saw a small, deserted sitting area. I let my fingertips slip from the cool metal of the door handle and slowly walked over and looked around. It had a beautiful view of the ocean with big glass windows, they even had a little bay window with a seat underneath in place of a corner. I grinned, I'd always wanted one in my own home and to make it better they had a large bookshelf. Call me a nerd, but I love to read. It's my escape from reality, and I really needed one right now. The last time I came to a hospital, I was the patient because my mom had let my step-dad beat me nearly to death. Shaking the thoughts from my mind I walked over to the bookshelf and picked up a scary book, I'm easily paranoid, but they keep you focused. Putting on Austin's jacket I got comfy in the bay window and began to read The Carnival Ghost a book in the Sweet Valley Twins series, I used to have this book, but it was burnt when- don't do that to yourself LaMaya. I finished the book and still I hadn't seen or heard from Austin. Sighing I put the book away and walked over to the room peeking in the window, I saw the crew along with Mama and Dave, I bit my lip feeling a bit left out. You may be Austin's girlfriend, but you're obviously not important enough to everyone else. I nodded slowly, agreeing with my mind for once, backing away from the door and back towards the sitting area, grabbing a pen and a piece of paper off a notepad I wrote them a note saying that I was going out for some air and would see them back at the hotel. I went back to the door and slipped it underneath, when I peeked in the window again I saw that it was in the middle of the floor. I went ahead and took off Austin's jacket too sitting it on the colorful tiles right outside the door, I mean, it's warm outside. I quickly made my way to the elevator. I am not having a breakdown in the middle of a hospital hallway. The elevator doors opened almost immediately and I rushed inside thankful that it was empty, jamming the button to the lobby. I made my way out of the hospital as quickly and casually as I possibly could seeing as the limo driver was still there I gave him a small smile which he returned. We climbed in and he drove me back to the hotel without me even having to say anything,
"Do I need to come back and get you?" He asked as I climbed out
"No, I left them a note." I told him, "Thank you though!" He smiled at me and I closed the door walking towards the hotel doors, I went inside and walked over to the elevators. When he was gone I went back outside and set of on the long walk towards the beach, alone. I felt tears gather in my eyes and for the first time since I had gotten here, I let them fall. Veering off the sidewalk I walked onto the sand and found an open space and just collapsed, sobbing my heart out.I cried for everything - Austin, Andrew, my mom, my step-dad, Tyler, Christian, Barrett. Everything. I couldn't tell you how long I sat the in the sand on my knees, but when I finally had no more tears left to cry I had a massive headache and I was hungry. Seeing that I wasn't far from the boardwalk I clumsily stood and made my way over drying my face and hoping I didn't look as lost as I felt. Almost immediately, a guy appeared and offered to buy me a meal I agreed but told him that I did have a boyfriend. He shrugged and said he was okay with it and agreed to hang out as friends. We walked around goofing off and riding rides for hours until one of his friends came up and said that they had to go.
"How long will you be here?" The guy - Jeremy - asked me
"A month or so."
"Well maybe I'll see you around!" He said with a half smile, "Bye, LaMaya."
"Bye, Jeremy!" I said as he hugged me, it was nice having a friend- even if I probably would never see him again. I sighed looking around and seeing that it was dark out, I walked over to the ice cream shoppe and asked the time.
"It it 9:45 little lady." The ice cream man joked, "You want a cone? On the house." I grinned and greatly accepted choosing a vanilla and setting off back towards my hotel. I wonder if they're back. I wonder if they even noticed I was gone. Ya know you're being really selfish, I mean Andrew is in the hospital for crying out loud! You could've went inside with them, no one was stopping you! I nodded feeling guilty for leaving the way that I did. Yeah but then again, they still could've at least checked on you. You may not be injured, but you are a part of the family now. Right? I nodded agreeing with the other half of my mind. By now I was standing in front of the suite door, taking a deep breath I opened the door. It was dark, like pitch black.
"Hello?" I said softly, no response. "Hello!" I shouted, still nothing. I slammed the door behind me and walked to my bedroom-empty. "Guess I'm really not a part of the family." I said out loud to myself. I changed my clothes, threw my hair up in a messy bun and went to bed, wishing I could cry myself to sleep, but having no tears left to do so.
