Chapter 6

“Crap I can’t believe I fell asleep,” I muttered under my book. I look at the time and I have been gone for five hours. I look at my phone with three new messages from Hannah, one from my mom, and another from Austin. I read my mom’s text, and it said it’s urgent that I need to call her asap. I get up to see a new crowd of people on the beach. Time flies when you lay out on the beach. I call my mom to see what’s up.

Me: “Hello mom? What’s wrong? I got your text saying it’s urgent and that I need to call asap.”

Mom: “Sweetie it’s your father, he’s in the hospital, and things are so so.”

Me: “WHAT WHY!?”

Mom: “Sweetie calm down everything will be okay, he’s going to be okay. He had another heart
attack.”

Me: “How can you say everything’s going to be okay mom. This is his second heart attack in a year. Do I need to come back home to visit?”

Mom: “Honey I say that because I think of the best and hope for nothing but the best. How can I not say everything’s going to be okay. Your father will be okay. You don’t need to come back home when you’ve just settled. Right now we don’t need for him to be stressed out as it is, since they put him in the ICU. When do you start school?”

Me: “I know mom I know and I’m sorry for flipping out. I worry about you guys when I’m not around. I’d hate to see anything happen to either of you. It’s that bad!? I start summer classes in about a month.”

Mom: “If he’s not out of the ICU in two weeks I’ll give you the heads up to come home and visit. Sound good?”

Me: “Yes that sounds good.”

Mom: “On a lighter note how is everything down there?”

Me: “Well I met a guy. He’s Hannah and I’s neighbor. It sounds kind of weird, but he’s really sweet and I don’t know I think I’m starting to like him.”

Mom: “Oh Aria that’s wonderful to hear.”

Me: “I just I’m going to take it slow with this one. If this turns into a relationship I want it to be different than the one I had with Ryan, and if that’s the case he is my first relationship since Ryan. Mom I’m going to have to let you go I have to head back home. I’m on the beach right now, and feeling a little bit burnt. I love you and I will talk to you later. Bye.”

Mom: “Alright sweetie I will talk to you later. I love you too. Bye bye.”

As soon as I got off the phone I headed back home. I started to really think about my dad. My dad and I haven’t had the best relationship. he was always in and out of life. He was an alcoholic, and would occasionally cheat on my mom with the women he worked with. I would say I would be devastated if he passed away, but I at the moment I can’t tell. I love my mom, and he makes her happy. My mom has forgive him plenty of times and that takes guts. I don’t know how she can do it. My dad has made it up to her though, and that’s all that matters. As far as I know he hasn’t done anything, so that’s good. I’m heading up the driveway to see another parked car next to mine. “Oliver must be here,” I mumbled.

“Hannah I’m home!!” I yell for warning incase they happen to be doing more than cuddling. “Hey hun we’re in the kitchen!” Responding. I walk into the living room to see them in the kitchen baking cookies. “How was the beach?” she asks looking at my faint sun burn. “I see you’re a little red. Did you fall asleep?” Giggling, touching my arm.. “The beach was nice, and yes I did fall asleep,” I laugh at myself. “I also got a phone call from my mom .. my dad’s in the hospital again.. he had another heart attack.” I say. “Oh no are you okay? How’s your mom holding up?” she said concerned. “Mom’s fine, it’s just he’s in the ICU and if he’s not out of there in two weeks then I should come up to visit. It’s funny she told me that I should be hoping for the best, and I try to for the most part, but it’s just so hard because I don’t want my mom to be left alone without someone by her side.” Getting choked up. “Look don’t cry, you’ve just started to smile more. Everything is going to be fine, and as for your mom she won’t be left alone your dad wouldn’t do that and he’s strong. Aria he’ll get through this,” she says in confidence. “Now go mend that sunburn of yours so it doesn’t get any worse. Oh and by the way there’s a little gift in your bedroom waiting for you,” Winking at me. I look at Oliver, and he’s trying not to give anything away, but something’s up.

I head into the bathroom to shower not even caring for this surprise. I just needed to rinse off and I did. I took a nice long cold shower, and it was the best thing for my sunburn. It felt good. It was oddly comforting.I turned the shower off and I hear a recognizable voice, but I couldn’t figure out who’s voice it was. I opened the bathroom door to see that Oliver and Hannah moved to the couch. Something is definitely up. “Is someone else here?” I wait for answer, but it was long awaited. “Nice towel Aria where’d you get it?” Oliver says breaking the silence. “Oh shut up.” I say walking to my bedroom. Alright I must be hearing things, but someone is definitely in my room. I opened the door and to my surprise I see Austin. “Is that what you will be wearing on our next date?” laughing. “What are you doing here, and date? When did I agree to a date?” I say sarcastically. “Well for one I’d thought I’d surprise you, and two what’s the point of a surprise if someone agrees to it,” winking at me. “Well Mr. Carlile I need to get dressed, so I am going to have ask you to leave.” Pointing to the door. “Wait there was thing I wanted to do the other night.” Walking over. Austin grabs my hand, and right there in the middle of my bedroom, as I’m wrapped in a towel with wet hair, he grabs my waist, and passionately kissing me. “I’ll be out in the living room.” He opens and closes the door, leaving me speechless.

I open my closet and thought red, so for my outfit I chose a simple black skirt, floral top, and maroon cardigan. I got ready, and decided to keep it light on the make-up, but my hair I decided to curl it. “Okay I’m ready!” Shutting the bedroom door. “Wow you look amazing!” Austin said jumping up from the couch planting a kiss on my cheek. “Likewise Carlile.” returning a kiss on his lips. “Well you two don’t be out too late, and don’t forget your curfew Aria.” Oliver jokingly said. “Yes dad I won’t be out too late, but don’t wait up!” Shutting the front door behind me.

“Are you ready to have the best date ever?” he says with excitement. “Well do you have in mind?” Reaching to hold his hand. “Well I want to take you somewhere I’ve never taken anyone else.” Smiling at me. The sun was starting to dim, slowly setting. We walked to this part of the beach that’s usually cut off from the public to protect the wildlife. I followed him to this beautiful picnic set up. It was decorated with pink rose petals surrounding the picnic. “Wow.” I say speechless. “Is there something wrong,” he said in a worried tone. “No it’s perfect. You went to the trouble to setting this up for me Austin.” I smiled. “I love it because you can see the sea turtles come in and off the shore. I come here on my downtime to think, and write songs. I wasn’t lying when I said you’re the first person I have ever brought here.” he explained. “I believe you, I really do. Now what do you have planned for dinner?” I ask. “Well from what Hannah said you really enjoy your sushi, and I present you the best sushi in Santa Monica.” Sushi sounded so good. “And if it’s not?” Joking with him. “If it’s not then from here on out you can pick the sushi restaurants to eat at.” He chuckles. “Pinky promise?” holding out my pinky. He promises. “So now that I have already slept at your house, and have me out here on a second date. What else should I know about Austin Carlile if you don’t mind me asking ..” Wondering. “Where do I begin. Well never did I think I was going to be a singer for band. As a kid did baseball, and I thought I was going to further it into a career, but that did not happen after my mother died. My mother died of Marfan’s Syndrome, and never did I think in a million years she would die, but she passed. After she died I was tested for Marfan’s and I tested positive.” Looking out into the dark ocean. I looked at him, and I didn’t know if I should verbally express my sympathy, but instead I just held his hand, and we sat there. He began to go on about his life, what he’s overcome, and telling me he was once married. I continue to just hold my gaze on the perfection that is Austin. He’s strong, he’s caring, he’s loved and lost. My connection with him started to not only become physical, but emotional.

“So what about you? Is there anything I should know about Aria Taylor?” Putting the spotlight on me. “Well lets see I’m 20 years old, and I have been fucked over way too many times in my life. My parents were off and on, and by that my father would occasionally cheat on my mother. She’s strong for doing that, and she’s still with him today. As for my father’s cheating, he eventually stopped, but that immediately turned in abusing alcohol. While that was going on I was going through this thing call high school. At the time I was in a relationship with this guy named Ryan. For two high schoolers we were inseparable, but that quickly changed the first time he cheated on me, and following that he became a different person. He was always mad, and all I tried to do was help him, but then he would become more mad, and started to abuse physically and sexually. We were only 17, and I couldn’t figure what happened to the boy fell in love with. He finally saw that he was hurting me, and I forgave him. Mainly because I didn’t want to leave him while he was on the brink of change. After a year, he cleaned up, and started a band. I was happy for him because it became a positive outlet. After we graduated we became more and more distant, his band was finally playing gigs, while I was getting into the swing of college. Everything went downhill, I walked into the restroom at the venue cheating on me, and right there I was done. I was done being used. I was done being publicly humiliated. It was a wake up call, and if it weren’t for that I wouldn’t have moved here to start over in a new city that I hardly know anyone.” He held my hand, and just listened. We looked at each other, and in that moment I knew it was confirmed that he is a good guy. Our gazes held. Soon enough he leaned in and kissed me. Only this time he introduced his tongue to mine.
