“Damn it! How did it get this bad, this quick? Whatever. Did you call Arizona, get something ready for her?” Austin asked about the rehab center they’d discussed over the phone.
“Yes, they’re waiting for us.” Seth nodded while gnawing at his lip. Austin got the distinct impression he wanted to say more, but didn’t. Austin eyed him closely, willing Seth to say whatever he held back. When nothing came, Austin let it go. He’d find out soon enough. He continued on as if he hadn’t noticed the hesitation.
“Okay, let me go talk to her,” Austin said, and walked through the house into the kitchen. The driver sat at the table, waiting for his directions. His housekeeper looked up. She didn’t speak much English, but worry was clear on her face. Austin gave her a polite pat on the shoulder as he walked by. He prayed this would be an in-and-out kind of deal. The odds of it happening seemed against him with the worry on everyone’s face.
Cara’s history in this area wasn’t good. Usually, when she let herself get this far out of control, she was a raving bitch of a nightmare to deal with. As he got closer to the bedroom, he heard loud music blaring from inside. The temperature in this part of the house was freezing. The air conditioning was turned way down.
Austin didn’t knock and the door wasn’t locked. He walked straight in to see Cara sitting with her robe open, her body nude underneath. Two young men were with her in the room. One sat perched on the floor between her spread thighs, rubbing one hand up the inside of her leg. His other hand massaged her clit where his head was headed. The second man sat behind her. She sat on his lap with her legs spread open, straddling his parted thighs. Clearly, his dick was inside her as he rolled his hips back and forth at a slightly awkward angle. In one hand, he held the crack pipe she smoked from while the other rolled her nipple between his fingers. Cara was so stoned, her eyes weren’t much more than slits as they looked over at him. She sucked in a breath, held it and let it go never acknowledging he walked into the room.
“It’s good, isn’t it?” The man in front of her never heard Austin come in the room, but the one behind her had no problem seeing him. He panicked, trying to get her off him. But, she dropped the pipe and rolled her head back falling straight back on the man, making it harder for him to get out from under her. Cara’s body lay completely bared to them all. She rocked her hips against the penis slipping in and out of her and wrapped her long legs around the man in front of her, ignoring the one behind her trying to get away.
“Fuck me…He won’t fuck me anymore…” She moaned, reaching her hands up around the neck of the guy behind her, trying to hold him in place, trapping him there.
“Cara.” Austin’s only word came out in the despair he felt so deep in his soul. The sight was pathetic, crushing his heart. He couldn’t believe they were here again. The guy between her legs whipped his head around, seeing Austin for the first time. She tightened her Pilates strengthened thighs around him, not letting him move. The guy underneath her finally broke free, rolling as quickly as he could away from her. Austin didn’t pay him any attention as he moved across the room to turn the music off.
“Noooo, don’t stop. Austin, come join us…where’s Seth? Austin, make him come in here and fuck me! He won’t fuck me anymore. Austin…” Tears sprang to her eyes, and she dropped her legs, letting the second panicked man free. He too darted up, making a wide dodge around Austin, and moved fast to get out of the room. Austin didn’t care about either of them. His only concern was Cara, and he went straight to her.
“Baby, you have to stop this.” He covered her with her robe before picking her up and moving her up on the bed.
“No! Austin, no! Don’t make me stop it. I love it! It makes me feel alive.” Cara jerked herself up from the bed, moving erratically. She slung her body around as she spoke until her robe fell to the floor. She grabbed her silicone filled breasts, crushing them together. “Take a hit like the old days and come fuck me, Austin.”
Her step forward had her tripping, and she fell to the floor, splayed open before him, exposing everything to his view. “Make Seth come in here and make love to me. I miss him, Austin. He’ll do it again if you make him.”
“I’m not doing that, Cara,” Austin said. He reached down to pick up her robe, before bringing her back up to her feet. She swayed, and he caught her easily before she fell again. “We’ve got help ready for—”
“I love him. I wanted to marry him, and have babies with him, and live a normal life, like normal people, and he won’t because of you,” Cara said, her eyes sliding closed. She opened them again after a few seconds. “I love him and he won’t…”
“I’m going to get you help, Cara,” Austin said, scooping her up again. She was no help, almost dead weight on his arms.
“I don’t need help. I need Seth.” Her eyes closed as she passed out.
~~~~~~
Tucked in bed, Cara finally slept it off. Austin sat beside her, watching her sleep as he weighed his options. He could load her up now and take her straight to rehab, which would get him back to Texas in the next few hours. Or, he could let her sober up and allow her to walk into the center on her own two feet. Damn it! He knew the decision he needed to make, but it meant longer than he ever expected before he could return back home. Even in all this chaos, a smile spread across his lips as he realized he already thought of Texas as his home.
