CHAPTER 43 - I Love You

  Ashley's POV;

  "Austin?... "I call in fear, and I gulp as he pushes the door to open it completely.

  "What? "Gerald questions on the other end in confusion, and I realize that I need to end the call now.

  "Babe, c... Can I call you back? My aunt needs me. "I speak into the phone, and I see Austin's eyes flare.

  "Alright, honey. Take care... "I don't wait for him to finish before I dismiss the call and get on my knees staring at Austin who's currently walking slowly into my room with a hurt expression on his face.

  "You have a boyfriend? "He questions as he approaches me, and I gulp.

  "Austin... Of course, I have a boyfriend. I'm old enough to. "I reply cautiously as I don't understand why he looks so hurt.

  I've always avoided this topic with him. I mean, of course, we constantly have sex, but it is nothing more than that... Right?

  "How could you? "He questions as he gets closer to my bed, and my face falls.
