Austin's POV:

We finished up the show and I thanked the crowd as we ran off. Tino through out his drumsticks into the crowd and we heard the girls fight over who caught it first. I ran straight to Leilani and scooped her up into my arms. She giggled as I tickled her, kicking and screaming as we laughed. I placed her back down but still held on tight.

"You like that huh?" I whispered into her ear. I laugh filled the room and made my heart melt.

"Not as much as I'm starting to like you," she said nothing else as she wrapped her cool, soft hands around my neck as she stood on her tippy toes.

"Oh is that right?" she nodded as she bit onto her bottom lip. "If I kiss you now are you going to turn me down again?" this time she shook her head. I leant down to meet her half way our noses touching. I rubbed them together and she giggled again. My stomach churned as the nerves started to get to me so I just went for the kiss. Our lips smashed together forcefully and her fingers interlocked into my hair. God, she was so sexy. I licked at the bottom of her lip asking for entrance and she allowed it. Our tongues wrestled together igniting my urge to rip her clothes off then and there. I pulled her closer gripping at her jacket. She pulled away slightly and leant up to whisper in my ear.

"How about instead of staying at your hotel we go back to my place tonight?" a hint of seduction in her tone, I simply nodded. I took her hand in mine and we made our way to find the rest of the guys. We found them all out by the car.

"Uh were gunna go get something to eat. You guys head back to the hotel and don't wait up," I rubbed at the back of my neck trying not to hint at where we were really going. Everyone laughed.

"Yeah right Austin! We know you're not eating food," Alan yelled, pounding fists with Tino laughing.

"Oh shut up assholes!" Lani yelled out. She grabbed my hand and we headed for on of the cars and jumped in. She gave the driver and address and we headed off.

Leilani's POV:

We arrived at my house and I was surprised to find my Dad still wasn't home, I shrugged it off. I'd shown Austin to my room and he placed himself on my bed laying back with his arms and legs spread like a starfish. I walked out to the kitchen and opened the fridge.

"Hey Austin, did you want a drink?" I called out.

"You got any Monster?" I rolled my eyes.

"No I meant like a beer!" I heard him laugh at himself from my room.

"Oh, oh yeah please!" I pulled out two from the fridge and headed back to where Austin was. I held out the beer to him and he took it from me.

"Thanks," he smiled that adorable smile. I laid myself next to him almost cuddled up to his warm body. He opened his drink as I did mine. I took a gulp hoping it'd help with the nerves thumping inside of my chest.

"Woah slow down cowboy, I want to remember tonight," I blushed at his words and he took my beer from my hand placing it on the bedside table along with his own. He pushed me back to the bed so I was laying completely back. He propped himself up on one elbow so that he was leaving over me. He closed the distance allowing us to kiss once more. It got better each time. I delved in the moment hoping it would never end.

I tugged at the hem of his shirt urging him to rip it off. He did as I wanted and pulled at the back of his neck as he pulled it over his head. I pulled back to take in the beautiful man that laid on top of me. His chest was covered in tattoos. I stared wondering what meaning they could possibly have to him until I noticed the large, vertical scar down the centre of his breastbone. I reached out and with a single finger and stroked down the scar just as he did with the one on my ribcage. I looked up and I could feel the sadness in my eyes. He looked away but I pulled his chin back to look at me.

"What happened?" I whispered not wanting to ruin the perfect moment with my loud, husky voice.

"I needed open heart surgery to replace a valve that wasn't functioning properly. I have Marfan's Syndrome and it complicated my heart from working properly. My Mum had and it's genetic so that's why I have it. I had surgery when I was seventeen..." he trailed off as if it was a touchy subject.

"Isn't it funny that when you were seventeen you were having life saving surgery and I was being thrown into juvenile detention ending my life for years ahead," he looked sad.

"Hey, hey. You're out of there now stop thinking about it, you can start fresh now, you're still only young," I nodded and leaned up for another kiss. He pushed me down back into the pillows and kissed back harder. We forgot about our conversation as he pulled me to sit up so he could yank my jacket off. I wanted Austin and I wanted him now, I couldn't take things slow any more. I haven't had any sexual contact in eight god damn years.

I pushed Austin back so I was now straddling him, I clenched my legs tightly against his thighs. He let out a small moan as I started to thrust against his jeans pulling my tank top over my head. His hands reached up pushing his hands up under my bra squeezing my breast tightly. I threw my head back gasping at his rough yet gentle touch. I unclipped the clasp to my bra and threw it on the bra behind me not caring where it landed. He gazed at my bare stomach and chest from underneath me and moaned.

"Mmm I love a girl who takes control," he groaned through gritted teeth.

"Oh is that so?" I teased, motioning to come closer for a kiss. He pulled up but before he could reach my lips I pushed my hands into his chest pushing him back towards the bed, "Nuh uh, not before you fuck me first," I tightened my grip at the waistband of his jeans. I crawled back a little, enough so I could bend over and undo the button of his jeans with my teeth and pull them back a little. He moaned as I licked his skin at them hem of his boxers.

"Babe, stop teasing please," he extended the 'e' obviously desperate for more.

"Mmm Austin beg for it!" I demanded but I didn't wait for a reply, I wandered my hand down to rub my palm over his erect penis on the outside of his jeans before ripping his jeans off around his ankles and throwing them on the floor with my bra. Before I could pull his boxers off he unwrapped my legs from around him and lifted me flipping me onto my back.

"I'm nearly naked here getting all hot and bothered and you don't even have your pants off," he growled in my ear as he bit at my neck. I motioned for him to take action and so he did. He yanked my jeans off swiftly down my silky legs and threw them backwards. I jumped lightly at the feeling of his cold hands stroking down the top of my thighs but relaxed as I became used to his gentle touch. He was now exposed to all the old scars left by Cole. His face became enraged. I sighed not wanting to stop.

"Did he do this?" he growled but not so sexily this time it was almost like his voice was filled with hatred for a man he'd never met. I nodded answering his question.

"Please don't let this ruin tonight they're just scars, just like yo-" he cut me off.

"They're nothing like mine! I was sick, you weren't! He hurt you Leilani!" his voice was raised and I flinched. I cringed at him using my full name in such an angry tone. I pulled him into a gentle kiss to calm him down but it didn't work as well as I'd of liked.

"Hey, I'm still here aren't I? Isn't that all that matters?" he sighed admitting I was right as he nodded.

"I'll kill him Lans.." he trailed off in his own thoughts contemplating what he could do to Cole. If only he knew.

"You can't" I breathed out, his face full of confusion.

"Why not? Look what he did!" his voice was raised again, pointing at the scars scattered all over my frail body.

"Because I already did Austin.." I sobbed, "I already killed him," I couldn't hide it from him any more. I wasn't surprise by the horror that lit up on his face.

Notes
