"How are you?" Carter asks.

"I'm good." I say. I go back to cutting the tomatoes. I look at Austin and he's so straight faced. I laugh, and then Austin looks at me and laughs.

"What's so funny?" Michele asks.

"Nothing." I say. Austin and I finish making the salsa, and then Austin and I walk out back and sit with his family. I sit next to Austin, and then Austin's grandad and his mom sit across from us. And then Carter sits next to me.

"Hi (Y/N)." Carter says.

"Hi." I say while grabbing Austin's hand. Carter notices and then rolls his eyes. I kiss Austin's hand, and then he smiles.

"So what are we gonna do?" I ask Austin while putting my head on his shoulder.

"I don't know." He says. I feel someone's hand touching my leg. I look and see Carter has his hand on my leg. I take my free hand and push his hand off my leg, I try not to make a big deal about it because then Austin will lose his mind.

"Well poop." I say. Austin laughs. Then I feel Carter's hand on my leg again.

I push his hand off of my leg again. I swear to god if he touched me one more time I'm going to lose it.

"I love you." Austin whispers in my ear. I smile and then kiss his cheek. Then Carter's hand touched my leg again. But this time it's closer to my lower region. I look over at him and smack his hand.

"Stop touching me." I say. Austin looks over.

"Is he bothering you?" Austin asks as he stands up to get in between us.

"No. Not anymore." I say. I stand up, and walk into the kitchen. I start pouring chips into a bowl, when someone snacks my butt.

I look and see Carter biting his lower lip.

"Okay. You need to leave me the fuck alone. Or I swear to god I am gonna smack that smirk off of your face." I say.

"Wow. You're feisty. I like it." He says stepping closer.

"Back up." I say pushing him away.

"No." He says. He steps closer to me when I notice he has a boner. I almost throw up in my mouth.

I shove him and then walk outside with the bowl of chips. I sit down next to Austin and he looks upset.

"What's wrong?" I ask putting my hand in his hand. He pulls his hand away.

"Nothing." He says. I furrow my brow.

"Okay." I say. Austin stands up, and walks away.

"Where's he going?" Michele asks.

"I don't know" I say. I stand up and follow him.

He walks up to his room, and slams the door in my face. I knock on his door.

"Babe. What's wrong?" I ask.

"Nothing. Just go away." I hear him say. I hear some banging and some shuffling behind his door.

"Open the door please." I say. I jiggle the doorknob and it's still locked.

"I said go the fuck away." He says. Then he starts blasting music.

That really hurt. My eyes start welling up with tears. I walk downstairs and grab my purse, and then walk out the front door and walk to my house. I open the front door and see my parents getting ready to go to the party.

"Are you okay?" My mom asks.

"Yeah. I'm fine. I'm not feeling good. So I'm just gonna stay here if that's fine." I say.

"Yeah. It's fine." My mom says. I walk up the stairs, and into my room. I lean my back up against the door and bust out crying. Austin has never been this rude to me. I walk into my closet and put on sweats and a t-shirt.

Then I climb into bed. I put my face into my pillow and start crying even harder.

I don't know why Austin's mood just changed like that. I hear my bedroom door open.

"Go away." I say into my pillow.

"Baby." I hear Austin's voice say.

"Go away." I say again. I feel Austin sit down on my bed. Then he starts rubbing circles on my back.

"Baby I'm sorry. I just saw Carter all over you and I thought you liked it. But then Carter told me you shoved him, so I knew you didn't." He says. I sit up from my bed and look at him.

"It's just hurt that you yelled at me like that." I say.

"I'm sorry. I was really hurt." He says. I hug him, and put my head in the crook of his neck.

"It's okay." I say.

"So let's get back to this party?" Austin says.

"Okay. Can I go like this?" I ask.

"If you want to." He says.

"Well I do." I say. Austin helps me up off the bed, and then he kisses me passionately.

"I love you." He says.

"I love you too." I say. We walk back to his house.

Let's get this party over with.
