Promises Were Meant To Be Broken

Chapter 23

"You could've just told me. I would've understand"

"I know. And I'm sorry. For not telling you and the way I've been acting"

She pulled back

"But I thought you're dating Ariana?"

"I am but...." I trailed off with nothing to say

I like Ari, don't get me wrong. But she'll never make me feel the way Becky did. Honestly, I feel like this relationship is going nowhere.

She looked at me, expecting to continue

"Things aren't working. I'm in Maimi, she's back in Texas, we can't work"

"None of this is my business but you shouldn't be leading her on if you don't feel that way with her"

I wanted to object to her but I decided to keep my mouth shut. Wanting nothing more but to end this talking session

But she's right. I shouldn't be treating her this way after all she's done for me.

"You're right. I'll call her now"

"Becky or Ariana?"

I bit my lip

"..I don't know"

I got up

"Austin, you'll always be my baby boy no matter how old you get. I'll always be here for you through anything. You know that right?"

A small smile crept on my face as I pulled her into a hug

"I know, mom. Thanks."

Quickly kissed her cheek and went towards my room

Going through my contacts, her name popped up

Should I call her? Maybe she's over me. Maybe she wants nothing to do with me. But it wouldn't hurt to try, right?

All these thoughts kept filling my mind.

What about Ari? What do I do? Maybe it's better if I break it off. But I don't want to hurt her.

I finally made up my mind. Maybe texting her will give me some relief.

"Hey"

was all I sent, hoping she'll at least reply back

Minutes passed by and I still didn't get a reply.

Sighing, I understood. She wants nothing to do with me. But that doesn't mean I'm giving up.

Now, I need to call Ari

Going more through my contacts, her name glowed

I pressed the call button and waited

After two rings, she picked up

"Hello?"

"Hey Ari, we need to talk..."

Becky

"What's your laptop?" Rita asked getting up

I let out a chuckle at her excitement

"Next to my bed. Just calm down, stop getting too excited"

She took it and sat next to me getting comfortable. That grin in her face wouldn't go away

"How can I not?! I've been watching his youtube videos since forever! You didn't tell me your best friend is Alex Constancio!"

"Oops? How was I suppose to know you're in love with him?"

"Point taken. Just log in and call him already!"

"Ok ok geez calm down"

I logged in and called him

"Do I look ok?" she asked

My eyes rolled

"You look perfectly fine. Now y-"

"Hey Becky!" someone called out

I looked at my screen and started smiling

"Alex! How are you buddy?"

He looked at me weirdly until he pointed at Rita

Her expression was priceless

"Ignore her. She's just really in love with you. She watches your youtube videos" I told

"Oh, well I guess she's a fan. Hey!" he greeted her

"Oh my gosh!!"

A/N: Loving You Is Easy was an official song in Austin's Japan EP way before Union J released their version so please don't be confused.
