The Players BestFriend

Chapter 2

As we arrived in LA, all of the memories came rushing back. There was amazing memories of my mom here, but also painful memories of Austen. I honestly thought I loved him. We spent so much time together, learning every detail about one another. Now that I look back on it, I can almost guarantee he lied about all of the simple things that made me fall in love with him. The first time we kissed was at the beach. It was a dark, cloudy night. We were walking along the beach, holding hands and just talking about our lives. That was the night I told him about my mom. It was very difficult to do, but he made me feel so safe and secure. I felt like I could tell him anything and I did. After we were tired of walking, Austen looked at me with his beautiful blue eyes, cupped my face with his hands, and said the words that will forever remain in my memories, no matter how hard I try to push them away:

"Kylie, you're such an incredible girl. You're one of a kind. I am so lucky to have you in my life."

And then he kissed me. It was so magical. I can remember it like it was yesterday, which still brings me pain. From then on, I knew(or thought I knew) he was the one. When I saw him and Britney, it crushed me. I couldn't stop crying, the tears creating a deep river. I didn't understand why he would do such a horrific thing to me. I knew when I went into this relationship that he was a player, but I thought maybe I could change him. Well I thought wrong, and now look at me. I used to lie down at night thinking about how wonderful he was. Now, all I can think about is how much I hate him.

"Kylie, do you want to get some lunch?" My father asked, pulling me out of my trance.

"Uhh.... Yeah. Hang on. Let me go freshen up." I jogged to the bathroom, splashing cold water on my face.

Being back here is painful but I have to be tough and face it. I'm not going to let Austen know how much he hurt me. He would enjoy it too much. Moving to Florida changed me. Yeah, I was only there for two months but it helped me realize how pathetic I was for letting Austen get to me. He's just a guy. I'm going to show the world who I really am. Austen Presley, you're fixing to see the Kylie Anders you've never seen before.
