Chapter 11: Media Sensation

"Austin, lean in like you're about to kiss Kaylie." the photographer directed as flashes went off.

Once again, Kaylie and Austin were at another campaign shoot; this time Michael Kors. Who would have thought elite gymnasts would become the face of every major fashion designer. Ever since they became public with their relationship, it's been magazine cover after cover, interview after interview. It's turned into a world wind tour. They were dubbed as the new gymnastics media sensation; formerly known as "Kalicky" and currently known as "KayAus" (pronounced Chaos) or "Kaystin". However, things are little bit reversed in their case. Though they are a couple to the rest of the world, their closest friends, families and teammates have to believe it is publicity. It keeps everyone happy, including the lovebirds themselves.

"That looks amazing, you guys." MJ called out from the sidelines.

"Alright, last shot. Kiss her, Austin." the photographer spoke.

Their lips met for a sweet kiss, holding it till the flashes stopped.

"Great job, that's a wrap!" the coordinator clapped as did everyone else.

Walking hand in hand to their dressing room, they closed the door behind them. The next thing you know, Kaylie is pinned against the door as Austin's lips covered her own. She snaked her arms around his neck while he wrapped his arms around her waist pressing his body against hers. Lips moved in unison and tongues dwelled and danced. His hands traveled up her shirt and roamed the soft skin on her back as he kissed her neck. Kaylie let out a moan. Just then, they heard a knock and reluctantly pulled back.

"Just when I thought I finally had some alone time with you." Austin spoke with an annoyed tone.

He opened the door a quarter of the way, enough to stick his head out.

"Hey MJ. What's up?"

"Nothing. I just wanted to tell you what a great job both of you did today."

"Yeah, thanks." Austin smiled and closed the door.

MJ rolled her eyes before knocking on the door again.

Austin popped his head out once again. "What?"

"You didn't let me finish. As I was saying, you both did a great job this past week which calls for a day of well-deserved rest. You can have the day off tomorrow. Sleep in, hang out, take it all in because the pandemonium will resume the following day."

"That's awesome, thanks." Austin replied.

He was ready to close the door, when MJ stopped him.

"What now?" the obviously frustrated Olympic gold medalist spoke.

"Whatever you guys are doing in there, keep it down. I heard you from down the hall." MJ said walking away.

Austin closed the door and turned his attention back on Kaylie who had her hands over her face.

"That was embarrassing." Kaylie said.

"No, it would have been embarrassing if she showed up 10 minutes later." he hinted.

Kaylie chuckled. "Yeah, yeah."

"So where were we?" Austin hinted suggestively leaning in to recommence their interrupted make out session.

"Nuh, uh." Kaylie replied lightly shoving him away. "It's been a long day, I need sleep."

"It's only like…" Austin looked down at the watch on his wrist. "11:45."

"Wow, that was a long shoot."

"You just realized?" Kaylie spoke sarcastically while packing her things and throwing it over her shoulder. "But there is a bright side."

"Oh yeah, what's that?" Austin asked.

"Now that we've gone public, I get to sit in a $120,000 car and nap all the way back while my chauffer, as in you, drives." she spoke with a big smile on her face before walking out.

"Oh the perks of being a media sensation." Austin mumbled sarcastically.

The next morning, Kaylie was up and early. Well, not exactly early unless 12 in the afternoon is considered early. But she on the couch at Austin's lake house eating her plate of eggs and reading the latest issue of "In Touch". Kaylie knew better than to read gossip columns and tabloids, but frankly reading about Hollywood gossip was an entertaining way to kill time. She quickly glanced at each page before flipping to the next. Nothing seemed to catch her eye until she came across a headline that read "Austin Tucker: Still a Player?" This specific topic consisted of a 3-page spread filled with scandalous pictures and captions. Kaylie looked at each photo intently. She didn't know whether to be mad, or shocked. But speechless was definitely a term that could be used to describe her.

Just as she got to a picture of her and Austin captioned as "Real Deal or Just a Fling", he strolled into the living room. His timing was impeccable.

"What are you doing?"

Kaylie stood up and began to walk over to him slowly, continuing to stare at the pages of the magazine.

"Oh nothing. Just looking at pictures of you doing body shots off a blonde, a brunette and a red head. It is quite amusing actually. You should take a look." Kaylie said slamming the opened magazine onto his chest, then walking away.

Austin looked at the pictures and sighed. He sat down for a few minutes analyzing the photos to give Kaylie some time to cool off.

Austin walked into his bedroom where Kaylie laid flat on her stomach staring at the headboard, hands supporting her chin.

He sat down next to her and placed his hand on her shoulder. But she shrugged it off.

"Kaylie, these pictures are old. The dates are in the captions. I'm not that person anymore."

Austin waited for a reaction, a response, even a flinch. Instead, he got nothing. She continued to stare at the headboard.

He lay down next to her, wrapping his arm around her petite frame. Their significant difference in height caused him to tower over her, even when lying down.

"Don't be mad. You know I love you." he said leaning the side of his face on the side of her head.

A few moments of silence later, Kaylie spoke. "I'm not mad."

Austin raised his eyebrows in confusion.

"I knew those weren't recent pictures, but seeing them flooded me with emotions I couldn't decipher. You're Austin Tucker, life of a party. Sometimes I just worry about whether I'm enough to keep you happy. I know I'm not remotely close to the girls you go for."

"Kaylie, the difference between you and other girl is the reason why I fell for you. I had a good time with them, but that doesn't mean I was truly happy. It's part of my image to be the bad boy player. You're more than enough. You're all I need."

He reached down to her chin tilting it towards his face where their eyes connected. "I love you. Don't ever forget it."

Kaylie leaned in to kiss him.

After the chaste kiss, she rolled on to her back bringing him with her. He hovered over her with his hands placed of both sides next to her ears, holding himself up to prevent him from crushing her.

"So, where did we leave off yesterday?" she said twirling her fingers around his chain.

"Hmm, I believe I got up to here." he said kissing her neck softly.

Kaylie closed her eyes and threw head back providing him with more access.

Making his with butterfly kisses down her collar bone and onto her torso, he reached for the hem of her black beater and pulled it over her head. Then, he removed his own shirt as well. As he continued to kiss her, he made is way to her chest, cutting it dangerously close.

Unfortunately for him, his phone rang.

"Fuck, you have got to be kidding me." Austin cursed.

Pulling the phone out of his pocket, he read the caller ID. It was MJ, of course.

"Hello, MJ. This is not a good time right now." he spoke into the phone.

"Whatever you're doing with Kaylie can wait a couple of minutes."

"What makes you think –"

"Don't bother getting all defensive. It's not my concern. But I am speaking to you from agent to client. Put me on speaker as I'm assuming Kaylie is there as well."

Austin hit the speaker button, then set the phone down on the bed.

"Hey MJ." Kaylie said.

"Hey Kaylie. I've got some wonderful news. Michael Kors is holding a launch party for the both of you as the new faces of his Fall 2010 collection. You will be flown via private jet and styled from head to toe in the new collection to the star studded event, where of course, the spotlight will be on "KayAus/Kaystin".

Kaylie squealed. "So where will it be? California again?"

"No, even better." MJ replied.

"Miami?"

"More like Cancun."

"Cancun as in the beautiful beaches of Mexico?" Kaylie spoke with her mouth wide open.

"You got it. 5 star hotel, amazing swag and best of all media exposure. So be ready to leave Friday night. I'll see you then." MJ said before hanging up.

Kaylie rolled the two of them over, where she was now on top straddling his waist and he was on the bottom.

"Oh my god! I love Cancun!" she yelled leaning down to place a kiss on his lips before getting off the bed.

"Where are you going? We're not done yet!" he called out as she walked out of the room.

Austin chuckled and shook his head.

**And back in chapter 5 (I think) I told you guys that I would write a chapter based on where I vacationed that last week in August, but I kept the location a secret. Well, now you know. It's CANCUN, MEXICO. It's absolutely beautiful there and the beaches are gorgeous. If you have ever been there, let me know what you thought about it in your reviews.

REVIEWS = NEW CHAPTERS! -DO IT! cause i'm a review whore :)

***I'm also working on a brand new story that some of you may know about. A couple of chapters ago, I asked you guys if you would rather read a sequel to this story (which would involve me finishing this one first) or an entirely different story that shows Kaylie/Austin in a different light. You picked the entirely different story. I'll put it up as soon as revise and put some finishing touches on it.

PLEASE REVIEW!
