Love At War (Austin Mahone Fanfiction)

5. It's No Longer A Secret

We spent hours putting groceries where they belonged.

We went into Austin's room and sat on the bed. I heard Austin sigh deeply, "What's wrong?" I asked a little bit concerned . "Nothing. Im just really tired, i barley slept last night" he says as he slowly lays down. I lay down next to him, "I know me either. I can't believe i really ran away" i say facing him. It was quiet for a moment, Austin and I just looked at each other until he broke the silence "Hey Sammi? Why did you run away with me? I know it was because of your mom but i never thought you would actually leave." He pulled me closer towards him, his hazel eyes explored every inch of my  face for an answer, but nothing. I finally responded "I left because she made my life hell. She never let me happy since she was never happy for too long in her marriages, Besides she thought you weren't boyfriend material and she said that she didn't want me seeing you anymore, but you make me happy. I just can't leave you like that, you're my only source of happiness ever since my dad passed away and i can't lose you the way i lost him." i felt my eyes get watery, i tried to hold in the tears but i failed. Austin brought his hand up to my face and rubbed his thumb under my eyes and wiped my tears away. "Don'y cry baby, you're with me now and nothing can tear us apart. I'm gonna do anything possible to have you here with me. I'd give you the world if i could, you're my princess and you deserve everything." I was speechless. I didn't know what to say. Next thing i knew my lips landed on his, they moved in perfect sync, the kiss was long and passionate.

We finally pulled away and a huge smile appeared on Austin's face. "What?" i say as i chuckle softly. "Your lips are my weakness" he said as he licked his lips. "Well your lips are my weakness" We both laughed. "Do you remember what's coming up?" i ask Austin smiling like an idiot. "How could i forget? I can't believe it's about to be a year since you finally became my girlfriend, after being friends for 5 years."  he says as he pulls me closer to him. I looked deeply into his hazel eyes and ran my fingers through his curly hair, my fingers ran softly through his curls. He rolled me over so now he was on top of me, i felt his breathing on my neck and it sent chills throughout my body. He kissed me, his soft lips landed on mine and within seconds the kiss began to get rough. He rolled me over again without breaking the kiss and this time i was the one on top. I continued to play with his hair, i tucked on the end of his curls. I began to take his shirt off but Austin stopped me midway and pulled it back down. "No Samantha. I'm not gonna do this thing again where we're both almost completely naked and then when something's about to happen you stop me. I know you're a tease but honestly the teasing's getting tiring, I'm getting tired of this shit, don't start something if you're not gonna finish it."  says Austin in an angry tone "I'm not teasing you" i say in a whisper. "Then what the fuck are you doing because it sure does look like it" he says in the same exact tone. "Maybe if you fucking knew why you wouldn't be talking to me like that especially in the tone you're saying it in." i say pissed off. I put on my sandals grabbed my phone and house key's and walked out of the house. I need to cool down, i don't want to go off on him more.

*AUSTIN'S P.O.V*

Sammi's been gone for a couple of hours and it's getting dark outside. She doesn't even know how to get around, we've barley even been here for a day. I'm worried. This is all my fault, maybe i shouldn't have gone off on her like that. I fee like i push her away every time we argue, maybe i do push her away. Our anniversary is 2 weeks away and i don't think this is the right time to have arguments with her. I called her a couple of times but she just forwarded my call. I went into the living room and turned on the T.V to try to get my mind off of things. I looked outside and it was pouring rain, i walked onto the porch and looked around to see if i could see Samantha any where. I saw a small figure walking towards the front of the building drenched in water because of the rain. I walked back inside and waited by the door to see if Sammi was gonna walk through the door any minute. I hear the door begin to unlock and my heart began to race a little. Dave opened the door and with him i saw my mom  and Sammi. "Austin get me a towel for her" says my mom in a worried tone "Hurry!" i hear her yell as i run to my room and grab a towel. I ran back to the living room and wrapped the towel around Sammi, i hugged her for a while and took her to my room and gave her a pair of my sweats and t-shirt. I grabbed her face and whispered "what the fuck were you thinking Sammi, something could have happened to you. i was worried sick about you"  She rolled her eyes at me and didn't say a word. She got up and grabbed the sweats and T-shirt and walked into the bathroom. I sat on the edge of my bed and ran my hands through my hair. My mind swirled with thoughts. I'm gonna apologize, honestly it takes me a couple of hours to realize my mistake and apologize. I heard the bathroom door unlock and Sammi walked out. I was speechless, she was so beautiful without makeup, her caramel colored eyes are so beautiful. I looked away and stared at the floor. "Hey Sammi?" "What?" she says in a cold harsh tone. I felt my stomach drop a little, she's never really talked to me like that before. I know i sound like a bitch and i sound sentimental but i really love her and I don't want to lose her. "I'm sorry that i went off on you like that earlier, it's just that you always do that and you never tell me why. You just give me the same excuse every time and its frustrating because i'm your boyfriend and i'm here for you. Im your bestfriend, you know you can tell me anything."  she started walking towards the bed and sat down next to me. She looked at me and her facial expression changed "Austin i just don't like to talk about it. But you were my best friend before you were my boyfriend."  She grabbed my hand tightly and turned towards me. It was silent for a few moments and then she began to speak.

*THIRD P.O.V.*

It was quiet for a couple of seconds, Sammi finally had the guts to tell Austin the secret that she's been holding in for years, the secret that one person knew, her best friend Tanya. Her face began to get a little pale and she began to shake. Austin; concerned pull her in for a hug and said "Breathe in and breathe out." she did as he said and pulled away from his hug. Sammi swallowed and began to say in a shaky tone "Austin when i was 8 my.. my.. step dad Jason raped me" once she said those last 3 words she lost it. She began to cry uncontrollably. Austin's eyes began to get watery, his eyes no longer the beautiful hazel color that they were, were now a stormy grey color. Anger filled his entire body "He what?" says Austin in an angry tone. Samantha tried to speak but the words could barley come out of her mouth. Hiccuping in between each word she said "He-raped-me" she continued to cr uncontrollably thinking about everything that happened that night. Austin began to cry out of anger, "How could he be so fucking heartless, why did he find the need to hurt and traumatize a little girl for the rest of her life? He's sick." not knowing what to do or say anymore Austin embraced Samantha in his arms and held her as she cried. He did everything possible to calm her down, but she couldn't stop crying.

*SAMMI'S P.O.V.*

I continued to cry hysterically. I felt my lungs tighten, it was getting harder for me to breathe, i knew that if i continued to cry like that i would pass out.  I hate talking about what that thing did to me. In my eyes he isn't even human, because anyone who finds the heart to hurt his step-daughter like that is an animal. I knew Austin was trying to comfort me but it wasn't working. What my step dad did to me changed me forever, and now i have to live with it. Tears went down my face like a river, my breathing was slowing down. Then suddenly everything went dark.
