I set down the last box in my new room which is way bigger than my old room in the condo. This house is so big and beautiful.
"So? Like your room?" I hear Austin ask.
I turn to look at him.
"More like love. This house is amazing. How did you afford it?"
"Babe, I'm a pop star, a teen sensation. I make lots of money just by singing." He says.
"Conceded much." I say.
"Ummm jealous much." He says.
"Me jealous of you? Ha! Your funny."
"Your funny." He mimics.
I crinkle my nose at him.
He chuckles.
"So what color should i paint my room?" I ask.
"Whatever color you want." He says.
"That doesn't help me." I say bluntly.
"Its your choice not mine, if i pick your gonna end up hating the color after we put it on the walls."
"Yeah your probably right. I think I'm going to go with...white." I say.
"Thats boring." He says.
"No, because i can decorate for holidays! Duh!"
"Oh sorry for not understanding girl logic." He says putting his hands up defensively.
I step closer to him.
"So...want to drive with me to Lowes?" I ask him.
"I don't have a choice do i?" He asks.
"Nope." I say grabbing his hand and dragging him out the door.
After we get the paint Austin and i get the stuff set up to start painting my room. As I'm painting one wall and Austin is painting the other i feel paint get splattered in my hair. I gasp. I turn to Austin to yell at him but before i can say anything he kisses me.
"Hey! Less kissing more painting." I hear Alex say.
Austin and i pull away.
"If Paige were here you two would be all over each other so just be quite." I say.
"Geeze, what did i ever do to you?" He says then leaves.
"Sade, you okay?" Austin asks.
"Fine." I say, then go back to my wall to start painting.
"No your not." He says.
"Just let it go Austin, I'm fine." I say.
"Im not gonna let it go, tell me whats wrong." He turns me to him.
I look at him and I'm about to tell him but i just cant get it out.
"Its nothing okay? Its not a big deal." I say.
But its kind of is a big deal, lately I've been thinking, Austin is just going to keep growing more famous and i know he wont turn into a jerk but he's going to start traveling more and I cant stay with him forever. I have to have a life too, i have to get a job, go to collage later on. But I'm just so scared to lose him.
"If it wasn't a big deal then you would tell me what it is." He says.
I look down.
"Lets just get something to eat, I'm hungry." I say then walk past him and out of the room to the kitchen.
Mama is in the kitchen making lunch already.
"What are you making Mama?" I ask.
"Sandwiches. Did you finish painting your room yet?"
"She was too busy making out with Austin." Alex says.
I shoot him a glare.
"Sadie, do we need to talk about a kissing limit?" She asks.
I laugh.
"Your kidding right?" I ask.
She looks at me.
"You could get Mono!" She says.
"Mama thats pretty rare." I say.
"Yeah, when your not making out with someone everyday."
"We dont make out everyday..." I say.
"I beg to differ." Alex says.
"Alex get out!" I say.
"Im hungry!" He says.
"Well then get your food and go to your room!"
"Fine." He says.
He grabs his food and leaves.
"Now seriously Sadie, you and Austin need to calm down on the kissing." She says.
"Okay Mama." I say getting a little annoyed.
"Thank you." She says.
"What are we having?" Austin asks, now coming in the room.
"Sandwiches." Mama tells him.
We both get our food then go to the table to eat.

Austin and i are driving somewhere. Where? I don't know. Why? I don't know that either. Soon we arrive at a lake house.
"Austin what is this?" I ask.
"I can tell you need to get your mind off things so i rented this lake house for today and tomorrow." He says.
"Its just going to be us?" I ask.
"Mom already approved, it was her idea actually." He tells me.
"But i don't even have a bag of clothes for tomorrow or anything."
"Yeah you do, Mom packed you one."
"Austin-" i start.
"Wait." He says.
He gets out of the car and comes to my side and opens the door for me.
I smile and get out.
"You were saying?" He asks.
"I was saying that you..are amazing."
"I just want my girlfriend to be happy."
"And she is." I say, still smiling.
"Good."
He smiles back. We get our bags and the go inside.
This lake house is beautiful. I cant believe Austin is doing this. We set our stuff down in a master bedroom.
"So what now?"
"I dont know, what do you want to do?" He asks, stepping closer.
I shrug.
"Well we are alone..." He says, stepping even closer.
He starts to lean in but i stop him.
"Mama said she wants us do calm down on the kissing." I say.
"Well she's not here to stop us."
He leans back down.
"Austin.." I say, stopping him again.
"Okay fine. Do you want to watch a movie?" He asks.
"Sure." I say.
"Cabin in the Woods?" He asks.
"Ha! Your funny!" I say.
Austin knows i hate scary movies and there is absolutely no way I'm watching a scary movie about a cabin in the woods when we're basically in a cabin.
"What do you want to watch then?" He asks.
"Anything that isn't scary." I say.
"What about....Mama Mia?" He suggests.
I smile.
"Now thats more like it." I say.
He smiles then takes my hand and leads me to the living room. He puts the movie in then snuggles next to me on the couch. I get almost all the way through the movie but towards the end i just cant hold my eyes open any longer.
I feel someone pick me up bridal style. Knowing its Austin, i wrap my arms around his neck.
"What are you doing?" I ask sleepily.
"Taking you to a more comfortable place to sleep." He says.
I feel him set me down on the bed and put the covers over me. After a bit i feel him slide in next to me. I snuggle into him. He kisses the top of me head.
"Love you Sade." He says.
"Love you too." I say before drifting back off to sleep.
I wake up and see that Austin is still sound asleep. I carefully slip out of his grasp. As soon as i am out of his grasp i get cold, i want to snuggle back next to him but it looks so beautiful outside. I look through the bag that Mama packed me and pull out my oversized cardigan that i always seem to be wearing in the morning. After slipping it on i go outside and stand on the dock that goes a little bit off the land and into the lake. Its the perfect temperature.
I wonder what my life would be like with out Austin in it. I cant keep following him around forever i have to do my own stuff. It scares me so much though, just to think about not being with him. As much as i hate to think it, his career is going to drive us apart. I wish i could tell him but i cant bring myself to, i know how much it would hurt him. And i know he would do anything for me and I'm not gonna have him quit his dream just because i cant handle being away from him.
I feel a pair of arms slip around my waist and a chin rest on my shoulder.
"What are you thinking about?" Austin asks.
"Just how..i never want to leave this place." I say.
Then i turn to him.
"Yeah?" He says.
"Yeah. Its so peaceful and quite here." I say.
He pulls me closer.
"Yeah it is." He says.
"Well we still have one more day here." I say.
"Yeah we do. So, lets make the most of it." He says.
I smile.
He puts his forehead against mine.
"I love you so much Sade."
"I love you more." I say.
Before he can protest i lean in and kiss him. I cup his face in my hands and get as close as i can.
"Not possible." He says after we pull away.
"Yes it is." I whisper.
"No-"
I cut him off.
"Breakfast?" I ask.
Then i start to walk back to the house. Then all of the sudden Austin picks me up from behind and spins me around.
"Austin!" I squeal, then laugh.
He sets me down and i turn to him.
"Your crazy." I say with a smile.
"Haven't we already established that?" He asks.
I laugh.
