"Let me talk to her, then," Austin said as he looked at Molly. "and I will tell her everything that I told you. I was happy at first that at least someone was giving me a little action. Then I regretted it as I woke up the next morning with Emily laying next to me naked."

Molly nodded as she waited for Austin to talk to Chloe.
Chloe was rubbing Ellie behind the ears, when she no longer heard Molly. "Mols?" Chloe asked, as she waited to here her best friends voice. The voice she heard next...hurt Chloe like a brick. "Don't count on seeing Lia ever again" Chloe told him until he started talking.

"Chloe...listen we need to talk. I know what I did to you can never be forgive . I don't forgive myself from doing it either. Yes, I slept with someone...but I regretted it after it happened. Lauren was pissed that I did this too. I had to tell her. She was the only other person who would have knocked some sense into me and would have stopped me, Austin announced, having gone into another room.

"We made a promise..." Chloe said into the phone. "when we got married, we made a promise to protect and LOVE each other through thick and thin!" she said again. "and the thought of you...laying with someone else on your bare chest...other than me...it pissed me off badly, yes I took off my rings, but that was because i was convinced you had cheated on me....which i guess you kinda did." Chloe said. "look, if you want to make it up to me...get your ass over here and prove to me that you will always choose me, no matter what, prove to me that you love me as much as you did before all this happened" Chloe said

A smirk appeared on his face as he smiled. "That I can do, baby. I'll be over in an hour" he the hung up and handed Molly her phone back before he looked at Aidan. "I need your car."
What the Demons do you need my car for?" Aidan asked as he looked at Austin.
"I need to get to Chloe, and fast. If I get any speeding tickets, I'll pay them myself," Austin announced.
After a moment, Aidan gets his keys off the counter and starts the auto start button. "Do everything you can to get her back."
"You know I will. And take my truck if you need anything," Austin announced as he threw Aidan his keys. "I'll be back in a few hours."

Chloe didn't want to hear him call her baby after what he just put her through. How could he just sleep with another woman. Chloe sighed and headed downstairs to check on Lia. "How's she doing?" Chloe asked her mom. Andrea smiled at her daughter. "she's still asleep" She said. Chloe nodded and hugged her mother before she went back to her room, and turned on the tv, as she felt tears fill her eyes once more

It was like a blur to Austin as he drove to San Antonio. To him, it only took seconds as he sped the entire way, doing at least 90mph. The only time he slowed down was when he saw a trooper or any other law enforcement that was on the road. Luckily he knew the route and was there in half an hour. When he pulled up to Chloe's mothers house, Austin turned off the engine as he stepped out of the car to run up to the door and started knocking on it.

Andrea opened the front door after she had calmed Ellie down, who had come running down from Chloe's room, barking. "Austin" Andrea said. "come in" he let him inside, and lead him to the living room. She sat down and looked at him. "Do you understand how much you hurt my daughter?" Andrea asked him, as she rubbed Ellie behind the ears.
(did he bring the rings?)

"I know...I know. What I did, I can never make up for, Andrea. But I need to see Chloe, please." Without getting a yes or a no from her, he ran up the stairs as he burst through Chloe's door. He looked at Chloe as she laid on the bed. In his pockets, he could feel the rings in his hand as he clenched his fingers around them. "Chloe..." He breathed as he looked at her.

Chloe was watching F.R.I.E.N.D.S on her tv when Austin burst through her room. She looked at him, and all she saw was the face of a man who slept with another woman. Chloe knew she wanted to know if he still loved her....but how could she trust him again? After everything they had been through...he still slept with another woman. "You cheated on me" Chloe whispered. "you swore to me you never would, and you did" she looked at him, as her eyes filled with tears. "how could you do that to me...?" she asked. "to...to us?" she indicated Lia

Austin slowly walked over to the bed and sat down on the bed as he placed his head into his hands. "I know. What I did, I can never be forgiven. But after it happened, I regretted it. Every second of it. I wish I could turn back time and stop it. I really would! But I know that I love you so much now. And I am sorry for how I acted. Lia and you are my world. If I never see you again after this, then so be it. But know, I will always put you two first from this moment on."

"Now?" Chloe echoed. "you love me so much...now?" she looked at him. "I have never stopped loving you...but...hearing you say the words that you love me so much now...NOW...what...what am I supposed to take from that?" She asked him. "Yes...people have tried getting with me, but I tell them I have a boyfriend...and it did happen a few days ago...I said, sorry I'm married. and what you do..." Chloe stopped. "look, I love you, you know that...but right now...I'm not so sure you love me" she said

"That's fair. I understand if you want to get a divorce. I understand if you never want Lia to ever see me again," Austin spoke as he felt his eyes filling with tears. As he looked up at her, one was already falling down his face and dropped onto his uniform. "Chloe, I have always loved you. I have always realized that. I want to promise you and Lia that I will always love you."

"Austin..." Chloe mumbled. "Why would I want to get a divorce right now?" she asked. "I can see that you love me, and I suppose I know that what you did was a one time thing" she said, hopefully. "but...now..." Chloe stopped and she took a slow breath. "You...you're promising that you love me and Lia?" Chloe asked. When he nodded she closed her eyes slightly. "you....you're forgetting someone" Chloe finally said, as she looked into Austin's eyes.

"What? Do you mean Ellie?" Austin looked at Chloe. "Yes, then I promise you, Lia and Ellie that I will never do this again," Austin announced reaching into his pockets. He produced the rings as he looked at Chloe.
