The Truth About Us (Austin Mahone Fan Fic- editing)

Chapter 10- Old times (e)

Michele's POV (yes I decided to give a little peak inside Mama's head. Enjoy xx)

~~~

I remember Scarlett. Her laugh, her smile, the way she made Austin so happy.

I remember Austin, the way he was before the accident. He loved her; I could tell. His eyes sparkled when her name was mentioned. He laughed more whenever he was around her.

She was perfect for him, honestly. She somehow managed to get his mind of his work.

But, I also know Austin after the accident. The way his brow crinkled when someone mentioned her name. The way he got frustrated when someone shared stories of the past. How sometimes he'd look at the pictures they had taken together and cut them into shreds. Poor kid.

Holding the letter in my hand was a slap to the face, a reality call.

Did he truly remember her?

Scarlett?

Was my baby finally getting his memory back?

I looked up and saw him looking down at me, waiting for me to say something. But all I could do was cry. Tears slide down my face. "Do you really remember her, Austin?" I cautioned, staring at the white envelope clutched tightly in his hands.

His answer was blunt, "No."

"But the letter, it has her name and-" I started.

But Austin cut me off, "I don't remember her, mom. But she sent me letters..." a wary expression settled across his face. "And, well, I thought I would finally reply... are you okay?" He gave me a sympathetic look. "Maybe I should get you some water, here sit down." He brought up a chair and had me sit.

My baby, my Austin was treating me as the baby, he was acting as the mom and I was the child.

Scarlett...

I couldn't help but think about how much he has changed after the accident. More mature, less jokes... more business. He had grown up. And Scarlett who could forget her. She grew up too. Smiled less, talked less. She was all business too. Her eyes seemed dull nowadays, and she lacked life in her. And I could only watch as they grew up, as they grew father apart.

Oh Scarlett, she had changed so much. She had gone through so much pain. I remember that pain I felt when Austin didn't remember all the events that had happened in the past two years; I could only fathom how much pain she felt knowing that Austin didn't know her. Not only that, but the last time she had seen him, he was a jerk to her. Poor, poor girl.

Austin still stood infront of me, "I'm going to go get you a glass of water, okay?"

I nodded, and I watched him retreat into the kitchen. He seemed so much older now that I think about it...

Oh Austin.

"Maybe things could go back to the old times," I thought bitterly.

Austin's POV

~~~

As I walked to the kitchen I could help but wonder why mom had freaked so badly. What was this thing with Scarlett? Was she really that bad? Is that why she was crying... Scarlett... I rolled her name on my tougne.

Scarlett.

"Here's your water." I handed mom the water and pulled up a chair so I was facing her. I watched as she sipped her water and finally I couldnt hold it anymore, "why did you cry when you saw her name?" I demanded. "Is she bad? Bad enough to make you cry?"

My mom finally met my eyes. "Oh Austin..."
