Give Me Something That's Real Again.
IV
I still couldn't believe this beautiful man was in my house. What did he see in me? Honestly. I'm really not that great. I'm average at best. I want to believe what he said to me is sincere. He sounded like he was speaking from his heart. The look in his eyes made me want to believe in him. It was just so weird. How could I be so lucky? I've never had anyone be so interested in having something more that just a sexual relationship. Hell, I even made a move on him and he politely declined. From the looks of it, we're in the same situation. We want something more than just friends with benefits. But can I have that with him? He's beautiful and an awesome cook. I don't see any flaws so far. I can dig it.
"So, how are the pancakes?" Austin asked as he plopped down beside me on the couch.
"Fucking fantastic! I could get used to having you around."
"Oh, really?" He asked, winking at me.
"Shut up," I said, playfully punching him in the arm.
"So, where are you from? Tell me about yourself" I asked.
"Well, I was born in Florida. Then, I moved to Ohio and joined a band. I'm sure you've never heard of it. Judging by the band tees in your collection, I don't really think you'd know." I blushed, knowing that he's looked at my clothes.
"We actually got pretty big, and made #193 on the Billboard Top 200. My heart wasn't exactly into that band. I always wrote other songs, but didn't want them to be a part of that band, so I made a side project. I called it Of Mice & Men. I actually ended up getting band members and recorded a whole album with them. We moved to California and got signed by Rise Records. With this album, we got to #115. As soon as it seemed like my career was starting, I had to get heart surgery. I never thought I would perform again, but I actually made a full recovery. I just finished Warped Tour about a week ago, and I'm back in California. We're writing our second album now, so we won't be on tour for a while." He explained, while my mouth gradually started opening, stunned by what I was hearing.
"So, you're in an extremely successful band? Is there anything else you'd like to tell me?" I said, kind of annoyed that he waited until today to tell me this.
"Well, I was married once. Biggest mistake of my life. Luckily, she didn't take any of my shit. We just weren't good for each other at all. I didn't think about proposing to her, I just did it one night. I didn't realize that we weren't made for each other. Just another pretty face that took me for granted." He said, sighing at the memories.
"Wow. I've never had a boyfriend before. I thought that was a bad thing, since I have no experience or anything, but I guess it's kind of a blessing in disguise. My heart has never been broken. I've never felt that before. The only thing I've ever felt from a man was emptiness. Not necessarily heartbreak. I just felt numb. I guess that's a good thing?" I asked, kind of proud of myself for keeping a few things about my sexuality sacred, since I had my virginity ripped away from me.
"That's a good way to look at it. I'll make sure you never have to deal with heartbreak." As soon as he said that, he took my hand, and lightly kissed it.
"I promise." I hope he didn't notice how hard I was blushing.
He smiled at me and put his hand on my thigh, which of course, made me blush even harder. I kind of want to say yes to being his girlfriend. I know I've only known him for like, a day and a half, but he's just so perfect. Maybe later today. We'll see what happens.
Austin excused himself, to go to his house and shower, even though I offered him to shower here, but he said he would pick me up in about two hours and we'd go do something. Lily still wasn't home yet, so I was guessing she had a nice night. I contemplated calling her to see if she was alright, but I decided that she'd be fine. I don't want to be like her mother. That's exactly what we were trying to get away from.
I took a long, hot shower, taking extra time to shave my body, making sure there were no spots left unshaved. I never really took much care in it, but now there's a very attractive man in my life. That might sound silly, but oh well. I popped the dishes that we used this morning into the dishwasher and started it up. He really was a good cook. I was very impressed. I decided to do a nice, natural makeup look. I really didn't care for makeup. My eyes were extremely big, and brown. Kind of the same color as Austin's. My skin has always been extremely clear and even toned, thanks to my expensive skin care routine provided by my wealth. I didn't take too much pride in the money I have, but it definitely has it's perks. I would still like to get a job and stop relying on my family's money.
I just put on a thin layer of tinted moisturizer, light brown eyeshadow in the crease of my eyelid,filled in my eyebrows, and put on a coat of mascara. I put some keratin spray into my hair, and let my hair airdry. Then I just lightly curled some pieces. My hair was probably my favorite attribute. It always listened to me and was extremely easy to style. I carefully picked out my outfit, trying to show my curves with a lacey crop top, and high waisted shorts. Of course, I pared this girly outfit with my maroon Dr. Martens boots. Have to have some kind of edge. In my room, I had two entire drawers dedicated to jewelry. Every piece was stored carefully, making sure that nothing got lost or tangled up. I have a slight obsession with shopping. Could you blame me?
I had to make sure I looked perfect for Austin. I actually cared about impressing him. I didn't give a shit about impressing anyone else, because as long as I gave them great sex, it didn't matter if I looked like a fifty year old crack whore. They didn't care at all. Austin was different, and I was going to treat him like that. Just as I finished up my hair, Lily came skipping into my room, humming a song that I didn't recognize.
"OHMYGOD KENA. Did you know Austin is in a band? He fucking screams, dude. He's awesome. Listen!" She screamed, pushing an earbud into my ear.
You can have the whole wide world,
The best part was always in our hands.
Cast aside, this can't be stopped by pride.
"Holy. Shit. He's amazing. How haven't I heard of his band before? Plug that into the stereo!" I said, as she plugged her iPhone into my sound system. Hearing his voice blare over the speakers made me like him even more. He's amazing. The song effortlessly flowed into a new one. I glanced over to the song title. Farewell To Shady Glade. Then, I heard a beautiful voice singing.
"Is that Austin too?" I asked, stunned.
"No, his name is Shayley. I did a little research while Dave was sleeping. He passed out super early. I was ready for a second round, if you know what I mean, and he fell asleep! I was so pissed." She said, pouting.
"Awe, poor little sex kitten." I joked, throwing a pillow at her.
"Shut up. Did you and Austin get any action last night?" She asked, throwing the pillow back at me.
"We kissed a lot, and he actually asked me to be his girlfriend. I said we should give it some time, but I'm seriously thinking about saying yes." I said.
"Go for it girlfriend! I've never seen someone have so much genuine intrest in you. You know how good I am at judging someone's character." She said, winking at me.
Another song came on. The Ballad Of Tommy Clayton & The Rawdawg Millionaire. Well, the names were interesting, but the chorus was beautiful.
Oh faithful, I'm amazed to find you look that way.
Oh faithful, put away the pills come waste away with me.
"I kind of want to meet this Shayley kid. He has a nice set of vocal chords on him. He's cute too." Lily said, starry-eyed.
"Don't get any ideas. Dave isn't that great looking, but he's so nice to you. You wouldn't want to mess that up would you?" I asked, surprised that she would even say someone else is cute. This isn't like her at all.
"I don't know. We don't really have much of that spark anymore. You know?" She said, looking kind of sad now.
"I guess so. Whatever makes you happy, love." I said, kissing her cheek lightly.
She pulled me into a hug and nestled her head into my chest. I should mention that she's only 4'10 and I'm 5'5. It's kind of cute, really. It goes with her baby face extremely well. Before she pulled away, there was a ring at the door. Austin. Oh my god. Breathe.
I opened the door, and saw Austin standing in the door looking sexy as ever.
"Hello beautiful. Ready for our date?"
"Oh, so now it's a date?" I said, looking at him suspiciously.
"Of course. I couldn't pass up the opportunity to have a date with a wonderful woman like yourself. I like your outfit a lot, by the way." He said, running his hand around my waist, and pulling me out of the house.
"So where are we going, exactly?" I asked, as we walked down to his car. "Jaguar XK. Not bad, not bad." I said, pretty impressed.
"It's a surprise, and I'm glad you like it. Although, your car makes mine look like shit." He said, sticking his tongue out at me.
"It was a birthday present." I said, sticking mine back out at him.
I wonder where he's taking me.
"So, how are the pancakes?" Austin asked as he plopped down beside me on the couch.
"Fucking fantastic! I could get used to having you around."
"Oh, really?" He asked, winking at me.
