Tell Me That It's All Okay / Post Malone

Chapter 43

I glanced up from my phone as the credits started rolling on the screen following the Ted Bundy movie I had chosen to watch.

I felt Austin slowly stir on my lap, waking up out of his deep sleep. He stretched his arms out before rubbing the tiredness from his eyes. He turned around to face me, squinting as he met my gaze.

"Zac Efron huh? I knew you had a thing for pretty boys." He said adjusting his head comfortably on my lap.

"Oh my God will you stop with that!" I smiled as I ruffled his messy hair that was sticking out in all sorts of directions.

"I could probably get his number for you if that's what you want. I just have to make a few phone calls." Austin raised his eyebrows, his voice obviously drenched in sarcasm.

"No! That is not what I want." I chuckled as he leaned over and placed yet another gentle kiss on my thigh. His soft breath feathering up my short dress, as he glanced up at me with a devilish look written on his face.

If he didn't stop doing that, I was going to have to rip both of our clothes off right here.

"What is it that you want Amelia?" He asked in low voice, burning a hole in me with his piercing stare.

This is it Amy. Just spit it out and tell him how it's him that you want!

I looked down at Austin's face, trying to somehow find the guts to confess my love to him.

Or at least my lust, cause you can't blame a girl for getting severely turned on from the way he was looking at me.

He patiently stared back at me with arched brows and a smug look on his face.

As if he was reading every single thought in my head.

As if he knew exactly what I wanted.

I opened my mouth to speak, waiting for the courage to magically enter my mind.

But for some reason, the nerves and butterflies in my stomach took over as Austin's deep blue eyes blinked steadily at me.

"I want-" "I want tacos!" I exclaimed, making Austin chuckle as he rose to get up from my lap.

"I thought I heard your stomach making growling noises. Always thinking about food Amelia." He shook his head as he picked up a sleeping Ava and walked over to the playpen to place her down.

He walked back over to the couch and leaned down towards me. Before I realized what he was doing, he quickly pushed one hand underneath my legs and placed the other against my back and picked me up bridal style as I let out a small surpised scream. I quickly wrapped my arms around his neck to balance myself.

"Where are we going?" I laughed as he carried me out of the living room.

"To order tacos of course!" He exclaimed as we entered the kitchen. He set me down carefully on the counter and pulled out an spread of different take out menus from one of the drawers.

"You couldn't just bring the menus to living room for me to look at Einstein?" I laughed. "Or maybe you just wanted an excuse to carry me again."
