Chapter 22

@auston_matthews tagged you in a photo

Instagram. What did he post?

I opened the Instagram app in my phone to Austons post and I instantly started blushing. He must have got someone to take a picture of us on the down low when we were on the road trip. It was the night we got into Boston, when I wore my wine coloured dress with the gorgeous lingerie under it.

It was a picture of us both looking at each other, smiling like maniacs, it was so adorable. I didn't even know the picture was taken. The caption was even better.

"My beautiful girlfriend doing beautiful girlfriend things 😍 #whatanight"

@Y/U/N "awe Auston❤️ I was probably laughing at a meme you showed me 😂"

@stephlachancee "it's OFFICIAL FINALLY!!!"

@sydneyesiason "beautiful couple!😘"

@marner93 "wasn't even generous enough to give me photo creds 😭"

All of those comments, including many from fans, my heart was exploding with joy.

I sat by Auston on the couch and we were both scrolling through our Instagrams and twitters.

"Breyana..." Auston said aloud, his phone was ringing, the caller ID was his mom

"Hola?" He answered

They began having a conversation in Spanish, luckily enough I could understand what they were saying.

"Breyana told me you have a girlfriend!" I heard Austons mom say on the other end

"Yes, it's a miracle isn't it?" He laughed, smiling at me

"I am going to check my Instagram right now to see what she looks like!" His mom exclaimed

She seemed cute, I didn't know her or anything but I could tell I already loved her.

"Oh my goodness! She's so beautiful Auston!" I heard her exclaim delightfully

They finished up their conversation and he was beaming.

"So far you have my families approval." He laughed and I smiled at him, snuggling closer into his side.

A couple hours later we were woken up by the one and only Mitch Marner BANGING POTS AND PANS TOGETHER!

"Mitch I'm going to tackle you!" I exclaimed groggily

"Tackle me then, football star!" He sarcastically taunted me.

"Syd and Matt invited us 4 to dinner at their place tonight! I think Lexi and Connor are going too." Steph said excitedly

"Oh awesome!" I smiled

"It's kind of a Canadian/American Friendsgiving, is what Sydney called it." Mitch added

I literally forgot about thanksgiving, we completely missed it. My life has been so all over the place that I missed thanksgiving. How does that even happen?

I put on a pair of straight legged black dress pants with grey velvet pumps and a grey velvet bodysuit. I added a black choker to make it look a little sexier and my hair was slightly voluminous and wavy. I felt good.

Auston wore black dress pants and a dark green dress shirt, his hair was perfectly styled, how he always did it.

We got to Sydney and Matts place and they had made so much food for us, I felt bad almost. But it was really good, and I was really thankful to have all of these wonderful people in my life.

After dinner Sydney insisted we take some group photos for Instagram. I swear that girl was addicted to it.

"I never thought about it until now, but being with you means we get two thanksgivings because you're Canadian and I'm American." Auston thought about the idea

"And we spell things differently." I added, but it didn't really apply to anything except the fact that we were born in different countries

"Yeah and you say 'eh' and other weird Canadian slang." Auston joked with me.

"Hey! I only say it when I'm talking fast and I don't even realize it when I say it!" I giggled

"That's the point babe, it's cute how Canadian you are." He teased me again.

I just embraced it, I was proud of who I was, even if I embarrassed myself by saying eh once in a while.

I noticed Austons phone blowing up with texts. The person trying to reach him was Breyana, his little sister.

"Let me talk to her! I want to call you and get to know her!" I read one of the messages and laughed about it to myself.

Auston wouldn't let her though, I don't blame him, if I had a younger sibling I wouldn't want them calling my boyfriend that they haven't even met yet.

All of a sudden I started getting really bad cramps. I was trying to hide my pain but it wasn't working. This was the biggest problem with me, when my period came, my cramps were excruciating for days and days, they made me cry and not even extra strength medication made them feel better.

"Are you okay?" Auston asked me, sounding concerned.

"Yeah, we should probably get going soon though." I said quietly

"Hey guys, thanks for having us for dinner but we're gonna get going!" Auston announced

Everyone came around for a round of hugs and we left.

The car ride was pretty quiet, I was mostly just focusing on the pain and how to get it to be less intense.

"Do you need anything?" Auston asked awkwardly, maybe he wasn't used to this yet.

"No." I groaned, my hands were balled into fists, I didn't know how to deal with this awful pain.

We got back to the apartment and I went into the bedroom and instantly started bawling my eyes out. I was 19 years old I should be able to deal with pain, but no, I had to be a little baby.

"Hey, why are you crying? What's wrong?" Auston came into the room and placed his hand on my back sympathetically

"I just need this pain to go away!" I cried and he pulled me into a sweet, loving hug, he kissed my head and held me tight.

The pain was just getting to be out of control, it was horrible.

"I can't handle this pain Aus." I spoke quietly

"I'll be right back."

He got up and into the bathroom, and I heard the water start running. He came back into the room and picked me up off the bed and carried me to the bathroom, he ran me a nice hot bubble bath.

"Thanks babe." I hugged his thick torso and got undressed and plunged myself into the bath.

It was so nice and relaxing. Especially since Auston sat there the whole time, petting my hair and trying to get me to relax.

"I love you." He said sweetly

I was in shock. I can't believe what Auston just said.
