You go into Austin's room and see him laying across the bed looking at you. Neither of you say anything at first.

You:" you lied to me. . . you snuck out to get drinks, you took our 2 year old son to a bar, you LEFT him at the bar. . . You can't even control it any more."

Austin:" yes I can."

You:" you almost drank yourself to death! Is that what you want? You're just going to let y/s grow up without a father?"

Austin:" if anything happened to me I know Alex would be there for you guys."

You:" Alex? Alex is the reason you're not dead! He wants you here just as much as I do!"

Austin:" Kristal please I'm sorry."

You:" you know, sorry is just not good enough any more"

Austin:" can't you see I'm trying. It's just hard-"

You:" well why don't you try a little harder. If not for me, then do it for y/s."

Austin:" I will. And when I come home I'll take care of him and-"

You:" and what if you have another slip up and actually hurt him?"

Austin doesn't answer but covers his eyes so you don't see him crying.

You:" I'm not going to let him have an alcoholic for a father. . . Call me when you get your life together, Jackass."

And with that you walk out the room and back over to Alex and y/s.

Alex:" how'd it go?"

You:" ok I guess. . . Is it alright if we stay with you just for a little."

Alex:" yeah of course. Stay as long as you need to."

ALEX'S POV:

I give y/s back to Kristal and I go in and see Austin. He has his hand over his eyes and I could tell he was crying.

Austin:" Alex. . . Man, you saved my life."

Alex:" what if I wasn't there to help you? What if I was planning your funeral right now instead of talking to you. . . "Austin Mahone passes away because of an alcohol overdose" isn't going to be a great news story. Not for your fans, not for your friends and especially not for Kristal."

Austin:" Alex, I know I made a big mistake-"

Alex:" yeah. You really messed up this time."
