Chapter 9 Elizabeth's POV I shouldn't have listened to Evelyn. It was such a terrible idea! In the moment I instinctively chose to trust her, those terrible words slipped out of my mouth. Seeing him jealous was one thing, but using James as a shield made me start to feel guilty. Clearly, this wasn't fair to that innocent boy. Now, we were both trapped in silence. Even when we arrived at the restaurant, the awkwardness didn't ease. We used to argue and bicker all the time, but now, sitting there in silence, I felt completely out of place. I should've properly thanked him. "I'll be right back," I said, standing up quickly, looking for any excuse to escape. I couldn't stand this awkward atmosphere any longer. Austin didn't stop me, so I walked away. The restaurant was huge, and after 10 minutes of wandering, I still hadn't found the restroom. I had no choice but to ask a waiter for directions. After thanking her, I headed in the direction she pointed. But just as I was about to push the door open, I thought I heard Austin's voice. I froze in place. "Tina, I don't want to embarrass you, but I'm not interested." Who was Tina? Did she know Austin? My ears perked up, leaning a bit closer to the door. They seemed to be speaking deliberately softly, and all I could catch were fragments. On the other side, the woman, Tina, spoke up in a flirtatious tone, "Oh, come on, baby. I'll even pretend to be that little stepsister of yours. You know you love that little fantasy. It'll help you forget about her." I widened my eyes. How did she know? I only learned about this at the camping trip. I felt a rush of frustration. I refused to listen any longer, gathered my courage, and pushed the restroom door open, determined to see who this attention-seeking woman really was. However, all the words in my throat died as I took in the scene before me. My face flushed bright red as Austin and the unknown woman turned to me wide-eyed. At this time, a waitress kneeling on the ground, holding his member to her lips. God, his cock was so much bigger than I imagined it would be. Seeing it held in her hands, though, sent a rush of anger and embarrassment through me. I've always known that Austin was a playboy, but I didn't expect him to be Chapter 9 this reckless, even in a restaurant, without a care in the world. Maybe Evelyn's advice was right; I should date someone new to forget about him. "I'm sorry." Although I didn't know what I was apologizing for, they should have been the ones saying sorry. I pinched my trembling hands behind my back as I tore my eyes away from the scene. Even as I pushed my way out, Austin didn't say a word or even try to explain himself. I felt a little bit of my heart breaking. The fact that he could do this right after he confessed to me, after kissing me... It was hypocritical, since I'd been the one to reject him. I'd been the one to draw the line between us. I shouldn't be so upset that he'd chosen to just jump on the first girl who offered to get on her knees for him. Even if it wasn't that girl, it would have been someone else, not me. We no longer have a chance. Now our family was safe. It was the right thing. I couldn't bear to go back to the booth so instead, I ran back to the car. As soon as I saw Austin approaching the car through the reflection, I shut my eyes and pretended I was asleep. I heard the front door open and Austin get inside, his breath heavier than normal. Chapter 9 I heard a thump like something had hit the steering wheel but I still refused to open my eyes. "Are you asleep?" Austin asked tentatively. I didn't respond to him; I couldn't face him, not right now. He sighed, "It's not what you think, bookworm, I..." He stopped, as if not knowing how to explain it to me, but quickly started speaking again, "She's my ex-girlfriend. But not exactly. I used to be a jerk, I know. But this time, I didn't do anything. I don't want you to misunderstand." Tears started sliding down my cheeks. I turned my head away, not wanting him to see. It didn't matter anymore. He sighed again,and then I felt something warm and cozy fall on me. He'd covered me with his jacket. His scent, so familiar and comforting overwhelmed me. The car rumbled to life and the exhaustion from the day, too many thoughts combined with Austin's scent slowly lulled me to sleep. The darkness pulled me into a dream. In my dreams, I was staring at Austin's back in the bathroom. At this time, an unknown woman swallowed his massive cock into her mouth. She moaned, the sound ringing out. I wasn't in control of my Chapter 9 body this time as I stepped forward. "That's great, babe." The woman pulled back, her eyes gazing up at Austin with lust as a coy smile played on her lips. My whole mind went blank as I saw her face. It was me. "Beth...Beth." A warm voice called out to me and I awake slowly, still felt dizzy. As I opened my eyes, Austin was in front of me. My blurry eyes dropped from his face to his hips, which were right in level with my face. Just like before. So the dream continued. Perfect. To hell with reality. I'd rather stay lost in the dream-it's the only thing that gives me the courage to be bold. I licked my lips, wanted to taste him again. "I want it," I murmured, reaching out to grope over his jeans. I felt his hardened member as I stroked it slowly. Austin's dark eyes looked down at me. "I listened it. That girl said you fantasize about fucking me. Is it true?" I whispered only loud enough for us to hear as I undid the zipper, my hand dipping underneath his waistline as I found my prize. "Elizabeth," His hands gripped onto my wrist, stopping me any Chapter 9 further. I frowned up at him. Why would he stop me in my own dream? "Let go, Austin. Listen to me in my dreams. You can't have your own thoughts. I'm going to lick you now, and you have to let me." Austin took a moment. "Oh," a smile quickly turned his lips. "Really? So what I have to do now is obey." "Exactly." My hand continued to slide over his member, ignoring his heavy gasp. It was as if I was holding a fire, and when I saw that his front end was melting from me and about to drip into my hand, I opened my mouth. At this moment, Dad's voice aroused. "There you two are!" I blinked my eyes. Dad couldn't have come into my dream at this time, and I didn't let him. When my hands became empty, I looked at Austin, who quickly put his member back. It's so real. This touch, this sound. I woke up with a jolt. Shit, this was not a dream! I froze in place, my eyes going wide. I quickly looked around, and now we are far away from the restaurant and in the driveway of our house. Austin was standing outside the car Chapter 9 door to get me outside. His playful eyes met my panicked ones as we both heard Dad approaching. Discover our latest featured short drama reel. Watch now and enjoy the story!
