Taylor's POV
I went to the living room after Austin left and sat on the sofa, wrapping my self in the blankets. I just told freaking Austin Lake my biggest secret, he'll tell the school! I hate myself, my life is over. I sat there and cried, thinking about my brother always make me sad. At least I didn't tell him about Kyle or my dad. I cried for what felt like hours but really was only two minutes when the doorbell rang. Slumping to the door I squinted through the tears.
"A-austin? Why are you here?" I said my voice shaky.
"I'm not gonna tell anyone Taylor. You think I'm some insensitive jerk, but I have a heart." He pointed to his chest.
"I know, Austin. I will admit I thought you were a jerk who got everything he wanted but you've been really nice these past two days, and...I don't know..." I trailed off.
"Taylor? Can we be friends?" He asked catching me off guard.
"W-what you wanna be my f-friend? Your the school's 'bad boy'. I'm the nobody, the girl everyone thinks is ugly, and according to the popular crowd I'm a prostitute. Haven't we been through this?"
"Yes I wanna be your friend. Taylor your not a nobody, your not a prostitute, and you are most certainly NOT ugly, Taylor you're beautiful."
"That's not true." I looked down at my socks, then back up at Austin. "Look at me, I have big ass glasses, freckles on my nose, I wear cheep clothes, I'm an outcast... do I need to go on? I'm not beautiful, and I don't need your sympathy."
"Taylor, stop. I wanna be your friend okay?" he sighed, "please?"
"Friends." I agree. "Austin do you still want to hang out and maybe have dinner here? You know as friends?"
"Sure! Can I help cook?" He walks toward the kitchen.
"Ok, I'll be right back. You start the baked potatoes while I change" I went to change into shorts and as I was putting on a t-shirt I smelt smoke. I rushed into the kitchen and see a fire in the sink, water all over the floor, and Austin with the backyard hose dragged through the back door.
"WHAT DID YOU DO?!" I cover my face to avoid the water Austin is spraying through the hose.
"Well um you see," he says once the fire is out. "I didn't know tin foil can't go in the microwave so it started sparking, and I thought I looked cool, so I watched it. Then it started to catch on fire so I quickly threw it in the sink. But when I tried to turn on the water the pipe busted, so I tighted the bolt, but as I stood up I slipped on the water and knocked over the paper towels, making a bigger fire. So I went into the backyard to get the hose and you now I'm here." he finished taking a big breath.
"I was gone for two seconds, and you managed to do all that?" I said, flabbergasted.
"Yep. I burned my finger." He made a sad face and held up his finger.
I burst out laughing, not really knowing why, but I do know that I haven't laughed like that in a long time. Soon enough, we were both on the floor laughing our butts off.

We ended up just ordering a pizza, since cleaning the kitchen took so long and neither of us had the energy to cook.
"You wanna watch a movie?" I asked Austin after the pizza got here.
"Sure! How about Insidious?"He asked taking a bit of his pizza.
"Um ok." I hate scary movies, but I don't want to say that to Austin. I popped in the movie and sat on the couch, sitting on the opposite side of Austin. I jumped continuously through the movie. This was the scariest thing I'd ever seen. I was clutching a pillow so tight I'm surprised it didn't rip.
"Come here." Austin said right after my scream of fear. I was hesitant, but scooted over into his arm. I felt safe, like when my dad, mom, and brother were still around. I wish I could stay here, with Austin.
