The rest of the school year went by quickly, and before the couple new it, it was summer. Time for bonfires and long summer nights.
June brought the couple closer and more in love everyday of then month.
Kaitlyn and Austin spent every day together, as much as they possibly could. But Kaitlyns parents pushed her to get a job, so she could save up for a car, college, etc.
Mid-July rolled around and Kaitlyn had finally gotten a job after the many applications she filled out. But her time for Austin was limited, or so it seemed like it to him.
Austin would get upset that Kaitlyn had to work and couldn't hangout as much as they used too.
She didn't want to admit it, but she could feel them falling apart more and more everyday and it crushed her.
How do you fix something like that? You can not control one persons actions. You cant change how a person acts.
The work days got shorter as summer drew to an end. Austin still was distant, many people would tell Kaitlyn its because he doesnt love you anymore, or because hes seeing someone else. But how could that be she would think over and over again.
They started arguing all the time. Whenever they were together and even when they were apart. He'd lash out, and it terrified her. How does one person who says they love you, hurt you so bad.
The school year started and it only pushed the couple further apart. Yes, they saw each other everyday but Austin wasn't himself. He'd ignore her, push her off whenever she tried to get close. It only spiked more worry in Kaitlyns chaotic mind. Why does he keep doing this? Why is he like this?
She would talk to her best friend about it. Mariah said "maybe he's just going through a phase" or "he loves you, you've been together this long how could he not."
It pushed Kaitlyns thoughts back down to the depths but not for long. As things grew worse, so did the arguments. Arguments became more frequent, Austin became more violent, and Kaitlyn became fragile. How does someone who loves you treat you so bad. But at the end of the arguments he'd hug her, apologizing for the yelling and hitting. Apologizing meant you weren't going to do what you did again. So why was it an almost everyday thing.
How do you tell someone everything that's going on in your life when you're terrified to speak one wrong word.
Is that what love is supposed to be?
