Chapter Fourteen: Torn Between two Lovers
"Hey." Sam smiled. "Where have you been?"
"Clay's."
"Oh. So are you going to tell me what happened the other night, and this time I want the real story."
Austin smiled. "How can you always tell?"
"Cause I'm your mother, now come on, your dad and Brett are gone."
"Okay." Austin sat down on the couch beside her mom. "No judging."
Sam made a face.
"It's not really bad, I mean it all in the way you look at it." Austin smiled.
"Oh God."
"Mom."
"Okay, I'm sorry, no judging."
"When we were babysitting Mica, Clay and I started talking about, like our families and stuff and it got pretty intense. So we kissed, and it was so much better than our first kiss."
"Austin, you were twelve." Sam smiled
"I know." Austin laughed. "But, mom, this kiss was like fireworks and explosions and it felt just right."
"Sounds like you had an interesting night."
"I'm not even half way through yet."
"So were kissing, and Micheal walks in and I'm so embarrassed, so I like rush out of there as fast as I can and of coarse Clay chases after me. He gives me this speech about how he knows I have a boyfriend and that he knows I love him-
"Love?" Sam looked at her. "You love him?"
"Yeah, I think, mom save your questions till the end."
Sam smiled. "Okay."
"He tells me he knows I love Liam, but that I love him too and then he kisses me, again!" Austin throws her hands up in the air. "And guess who saw it all?"
"Liam?" Sam asked.
Austin nodded. "He went crazy, said he knew I would do this and that we were a mistake and he was so upset."
"That's why you were crying." Sam looked at her. "That's why Clay carried you home."
"Yeah." Austin looked down. "I think it hurt him so much because, when we were stuck in that cabin, we, you know."
"Austin." Sam looked at her.
"You said no judging."
"I'm not, I'm worried."
"I'm, for real, going to stop telling you what happened if you start giving me the sex talk."
"Do you need the sex talk?"
"Again?" Austin smiled. "I think one was enough."
"Uh-huh."
"Anyways, I went over to Clay's today to talk and of coarse he was playing basketball, shirtless."
Sam laughed. "Of coarse."
"Then one thing led to the other and we kissed again." Austin smiled. "Take a breath mom, that's all that happened."
"Good."
"We talk and talk, but I still don't think we really know what's going to happen."
"Well, if you want my advice and your dad would say the same thing, Liam's good for you and Clay's."
"Bad."
"Not bad, but he's Sonny's son, wants to be in the mob."
"How did you know that?"
"Honey, they think it's their right, like it's suppose to be passed down from generation to generation."
"You know Brett wants to be in it too, right?"
"Oh, I know and your dad told him it's not gonna happen."
Austin nodded hearing the doorbell ring.
She got up and opened it, expecting to find Clay or Josselyn, but it was Liam.
"Liam, Hi." She smiled.
"Hey." He rocked back and forth on his heels. "Do you think we could talk?"
"Yeah, come in."
Sam smiled. "Hi, Liam."
"Hi, Mrs. Morgan."
"Austin, I'm going to go over to Maxie's, I'll be back in about an hour."
"Okay, mom." She said giving her a thank you smile.
"I'm sorry." They both said hearing the door shut.
"What are you sorry for?" Austin asked. "You didn't do anything wrong."
"I was a total jerk to you." He shoved his hands in his pockets.
"You deserved to be."
Liam shook his head. "If you love someone, you don't."
Austin was quiet.
"And, I do, love you Austin."
"I love you too." She smiled "And I told Clay we can't be more than friends."
He nodded. "What about us?"
"Are you asking if we can get passed this?"
"Yeah."
"I can, if you can."
"I missed you." He hugged her tight.
She wrapped her arms around him. "I missed you, too."
