Twenty-Three

Kaitlin Winchester
 
“You’re lying!” I say to Austin, widening my eyes in excitement.
 
“We’re going to Disneyland, Kaitlin. You and me, and the rest of the gang,” he states, wrapping his arms around my waist, and pulling me to his chest. I let him too, placing my delicate hands on his chest. He glances down at them, smiling too. “And babe....”
 
“What did I do?” I ask, but Austin just chuckles. He shakes his head real quick to reassure me I didn’t do anything wrong.
 
“We should just go out as a couple. Confirm our relationship...” he suggests, and for some reason I actually smile. I nod my head too, agreeing to do so. This makes me grin from ear to ear and pick me up by my waist.
 
I let out a squeal as he spins me around, but soon he sets me back down. He takes me by surprise after that, pressing his lips against mine for a hard kiss full of passion I so desired from him. I kiss back with the equal amount, and then I pull back for some breath. I leave my forehead against his as I let out some heavy breaths to catch my own. Austin does the same, but smiles like an idiot.
 
“I love you,” he says and finally my ears hear it in person. The sound of those three words, just makes me smile and kiss him once again. He fully returns it too, pulling me closer to him. I just place my hands on his cheeks.
 
I then pull away to catch my breath once again. When I do I whisper the three words back to him, “I love you.”
 
After that we started to pack up and soon enough we were on our way.
 
We took a road trip down to LA. The girls went in one car while the boys went in the other. We did this for Zach’s sake though, but since Cameron was joining us he wouldn’t be fully alone.
 
@AustinMahone: LA looks beautiful
 
I smile as I see Austin’s tweet. I could imagine him smiling down at his phone too. If I was next to him he’d say some cheesy line like, “But you look more beautiful”. It’d make me smile too, and bring my lips to his for a kiss. God I miss his lips on mine. It’s like I crave his kiss all the time. His lips were on I seem to think about. Because they look perfect and feel perfect on mine. It makes me tweet about it too.
 
@KaitlinWinchester: Don’t you hate when you crave to kiss someone you can’t?
 
I have to sigh, as I trace my lips with my fingers. Is it bad to think about your boyfriend 24/7? Is it unhealthy?
 
“No,” I hear Marina say from next to me.
 
“I didn’t realize I said that out loud,” I admit, laughing a bit. I look over at her to only find her smiling at me. It kind of creeps me out too, so I furrow my eyebrows in confusion.
 
Marina just laughs a bit, and lets out, “You just really love him, Kate. You make it so obvious, and all the Mahomies know. I hope he knows how lucky he is to have you after what he did to you.”
 
I nod my head, not knowing exactly how to answer. Before she can speak more I just look out my window, wanting to shut out thoughts about the past. I didn’t wanna remember what Austin did or if he’d do it again. I didn’t want to think about my parents who would love the way Austin treats me. He treats me like I’m his princess.
 
I notice Lily pull up behind Austin’s range rover, and I look over to see we had pulled up to the hotel connected to Disneyland. We were staying here for a full week so I was excited for what was in store. I hoped this week would be drama free for sure. The last thing I need is drama.
 
I didn’t even want to think about that right now. It’s 1 am, and I can barely keep my eyes open as it is. Some Mahomies are waiting for Austin too, but only like seven to eight. When I get out of the car I hear them erupt into whispers, and giggles before at the fact I look like death probably.
 
When I turn I see Austin hopping out, and getting all the bags for the boys. Us girls get our own bags, but when I see Austin walking over I know he’ll take mine for me. That’s what Robert and Alex were doing right now so I figured.
 
“Austin, I can take these in. Say hi,” I say to him, gesturing to the Mahomies. He looks over too, and I can see his eyes light up at the fans that were up this late for him. So I encourage him to go talk to them while I’m yawning. I have to stay awake. I try to remind myself that every five seconds.
 
Austin hears my yawn though, shaking his head. “My girl comes first. Let me carry these bags in. You talk to Mahomies I’ll be back out.” I’m about to fight him on it, but he already picked up my stuff, along with his. I let out a groan about it too. He’s so stubborn.
 
I head over to the Mahomies, taking some selfies and such. I try to stay awake with them too, but I keep yawning and apologizing. Then Austin walks back out, a big grin on his face. He hugs the Mahomies, kisses the pretty girls’ cheeks, and then returns to my side. He wraps an arm around my waist so casually too.
 
These girls were about 16 or 17, and way more beautiful then me. Yet he seems so proud of me. I just don’t get it.
 
I cuddle into Austin's side as the Mahomies watch us and awh. I prayed they'd handle this well. I prayed so hard. I just worried too much about it. I want them all to approve.

Austin chats with the Mahomies. They don't dare speak about our loving gestures because it wasn't unusual. We always act like this even as friends, but I know after this trip everyone will know. We'd kiss, hug, and just be a normal couple. That's all I wanted and I was always afraid I wouldn't get that. He's a celebrity. But with Austin I know we'd make it work. We're in love and honestly we can't get rid of each other.

I let out a yawn, catching Austin's attention. "Wanna head inside baby?" He asks, not holding back on baby. It makes me smile instantly, and look up at him. I then nod my head to his question.

"I'll head in, you can stay," I say to him, but he shakes his head. He refuses to let me go alone. So he wishes the Mahomies a goodbye, following behind me and sliding his hand into my own. I intertwine our fingers, smiling at the feeling holding his hand brought me. When Austin and I get two inches inside, he stops us.

I raise an eyebrow, but he just smiles. He leans down, making me get up on my tippy toes. He just pecks my lips, before pulling away. Here I am smiling like an idiot again over the smallest gestures he does.

Without thinking I wrap my arms around his chest, and his go around my waist. He pulls me to his chest, placing his chin on top of my head. I simply cuddle my head into his chest, listening to his heart beat. And I enjoy it. It feels like were the only two. When we finally pull away he kisses my lips once more, takes my hand back in his, and heads to the desk to get our room.

"Kaitlin and Austin are together!" I hear a girl shout but not too loud. It's loud enough to catch my attention. I look back to see her with her few other friends. I smile and shoot them a small wave. I keep Austin's hand in mine too, not going to hide it any longer. The girls smile too, pointing at Austin so they could see him. I nod of course, putting up a finger to tell them one minute.
 
I wait for Austin to finish up, and every time we get closer and closer to finishing up he squeezes my hand. I decide to be a little cutesy and get up on his tippy toes to hide my head in his neck. I do so, and leave a few kisses on his neck as he speaks. On the first kiss he stutters for a moment, but soon gets use to it. I then pull away, staying close by him.
 
Once we get our room keys, I walk over to the Mahomies with Austin. Austin hugs the girls with one arm, keeping the other one locked with mine. I have to laugh a bit at how protective he was being. I don’t dare shake it off though, liking it a lot. When he’s done, he pulls me to his side and whispers in my ear, “I just want to get you alone.”  I have to smile a bit, but the Mahomies speak up.
 
“So are you guys together together or just dating to see how it goes?” This beautiful blonde asks, making me a little jealous at how extremely gorgeous she is. Austin could be with her. She looks like a model, and then there’s average ole me.
 
I look up at Austin, going to let him answer. He smiles so wide, looking back down at me, “Kaitlin’s my girlfriend.”
 
“For how long have you not told us?”
 
“It’s only been a month maybe even less. We were just testing it out, and then I asked her. I was going to wait for my next interview to confirm, but I was waiting for when we were both ready to say it. I just hope you can support us,” he states, bringing me closer to him.
 
I then speak, “But if you don’t support us then it’s okay. I understand I’m not some perfect model or anything. I’ve made mistakes, but dating this goober isn’t one. I promise I’ll look out for him. He’s my best friend.”
 
Austin looks down at me as I speak, and before I know it he presses a soft kiss to my forehead. I have to look up to see him fully and he just smiles. I’m so in love with him and that gorgeous smile of his.
