Kaitlin Winchester

Austin is suppose to be back in two days, and I've been beyond excited. I never told Lily about what happened between Austin and I but she noticed I was a lot happier, even my grandparents were questioning me. I didn't know what to tell anyone really. Austin isn't my boyfriend. We just... Kissed. Three times in two days. But we aren't together. We never will be together. He's too busy for a relationship most likely. And why date me? He's already seen with Camila who is just beautiful.

Lily opening my door with a bang cuts me off from my day dream. "Why didn't you tell me?!?!" she asks, a huge grin on her face, confusing me. I had to furrow my eyebrows at her since she was basically bursting through my door.

"Alex told me! You and Austin kissed for the dare!" Lily screeches and then continues, "And at the fricken airport!" I guess Austin had to tell Alex. I didn't bother to tell Lily. I just thought it was a one time thing no matter how smiley it made me.

"I just forgot I guess. I figured he would," I admit, shrugging. He did that a lot. He forgot about things... people... me. I didn't think he'd want to continue what we had done about two weeks ago. But it still made me happy that it happened. I didn't wanna make it a big deal.

"You're so stupid!" Lily says, making me cringe.

"Thanks for the sugar coating," I respond, my voice dripping with sarcasm. Lily just laughs at me, basically telling me she was joking. She soon continued on what she was saying,

"He loves you! Can't you see the way he looks at you?" Lily asks, making me raise an eyebrow. What is she talking about? "Do you not know why he left? Has he not told you?" Lily continues, and there’s that same question I had been dying to know the answer too.
“No,” I whisper softly, looking at her. Lily frowns at me, already knowing how badly I wanted to know. It had been killing me softly since forever and she knew.

“He stopped talking to you because… he loved you and thought you didn’t love him back…” she whispers, looking into my eyes as my face fell completely. What? She had to be joking. I found myself sitting down onto my bed and run a hand through my hair. Was she being serious?

“I should’ve told you sooner,” she whispers, but I shake my head. I wasn’t mad at her. It really wasn’t her thing to tell, but she had. Austin’s secret was out, and now I knew. He loves me. He loves you, Kaitlin. I found myself smiling like a complete idiot. I just bolted up and hugged Lily so tight.
 
Lily immediately hugged me back, letting out a light laugh at the amount of energy I soon got. I automatically felt happiness. He loves me! Austin loves me!

“He’s loved you ever since that Austream you did when Taylor cheated on him. He knew it was always you and I could tell by the way he looked at you. Alex told me he looks at Camila, but he thinks of you. He doesn’t like her like that, Kaitlin. He loves you! I wish we all knew this sooner. I wish he hadn’t had left you so brokenhearted, but he was scared you didn’t love him back!” Lily lets out, and I just keep smiling.

“What do I do now?” I ask her, pulling back.

Lily just laughs and shrugs. “Whatever you want, but I have to head out. Soccer meeting,” she says to me, hugging me one last time and making her way out. As soon as she left I turned on some music and ‘Wild Heart’ by The Vamps started to play. I was in a good mood so I slightly dance along in happiness.

I decided to do an Ustream myself and set up my computer. I did those sometimes too and The Mahomies always watched. They loved listening to me talk for some reason because I kept them updated on Austin. I knew they wanted to know what was up with us since pictures of Austin and I at the airport leaked. They were of me, rubbing his arms and calming him down. One picture is of Austin looking back at me as I rubbed his arms, and he just smiles in content. It was a picture that made my stomach twist by the way he looked at me. I didn’t notice until the picture too. He had been staring at me for a long time I guess.

The Ustream linked immediately posted to twitter as Austin’s song Shadow started to play. It immediately made me smile, and sadly the Mahomies were already logging on and seeing how his voice made me smile.

I sat cris cross on my bed, my laptop across from me. I was wearing Austin’s sweatshirt actually along with a pair of black leggings. The sweatshirt read Mr. Mahone, and he had given it to me recently when I was cold and I never returned it. It is pretty comfortable.

“I feel like answering questions so I’m going to look through twitter. Tweet hashtag KaitlinUstream!” I say, and pull out my phone to look at twitter. I even tweeted out: ‘Tweet me under #KaitlinUstream and I’ll answer some questions

I then typed in the hashtag seeing millions of questions like:

@MaddyMahomie74: Are you and Austin dating? #KaitlinUstream

@IndirectAC: @KaitlinWinchester How do you feel about the rumors of dating Austin? #KaitlinUstream

@MahomiesMusic: She’s wearing Austin’s sweatshirt. Wtf that’s so cute #KaitlinUstream

@MahonesCupcakes: @KaitlinWinchester How are you feeling? #KaitlinUstream

“Guys, I’m feeling a lot better! Thank you for asking. I’m still shaken up, but I’m getting better. My friends and grandparents are keeping me distracted. Thanks for all the prayers and tweets to stay strong,” I say to the screen, smiling softly.

I look back to my phone and see a tweet:
@AustinMahone: How much do you miss me? @KaitlinWinchester #KaitlinUstream

Everyone in the Ustream comments kept talking about how Austin was here or either saying hi Austin. It made me smile instantly and look at the camera like ‘Really Austin?’ I could only imagine him laughing right now.

“Well Austin, I miss you a lot. I can’t wait to see you soon,” I say, smiling softly remembering our kiss in the airport immediately.
I soon saw fans tweeting me screenshots of another one of Austin’s tweets but he deleted before I could see it:
‘@AustinMahone: How good of a kisser am I? @KaitlinWinchester #KaitlinUstream’

My cheeks turned red in an instant. “Oh my god Austin,” I say, letting out a laugh. “I swear Austin is one of the stupidest boys I know. Austin, I don’t know if you’re a good kisser!” I say, rolling my eyes and playing it off. I can imagine Austin now smirking, knowing how good of a liar I am.

Fans were actually enjoying Austin being a sarcastic little shit. I, on the hand, was getting annoyed by him. I just went on to answering other fans questions about Austin, how I was feeling, and just random things.

Someone finally asked me why I was in such a good mood, and I just blushed. “I just found something out, and I’m just really happy about it. That’s all,” I spoke, and then never spoke out about it after.

I soon ended the Ustream, and noticed everyone had a good time which what I had wanted. But drama was still starting over Austin’s tweet. It was nothing too bad luckily since they thought we were joking, but others were starting to figure it out. Austin wants his Mahomies to know his feelings for me. I mean, I didn’t want them to know right now.

He hasn’t asked me to be his, and…

Will he ever even ask?
