Keely was sitting cross-legged on the grass, watching the river run its course, a calm feeling ascending upon her. She smoothed the skirt of her red dress over her legs, she had taken her shoes off, which were now sitting beside her, when she arrived here. She had decided to come here and relax a little, her doctor had told her she needed to take it more easy, that she was too stressed out, so she couldn't think of anything better than to sit by the river for a while and forget about everything else.

Austin figured he'd find Keely here, she was 23 weeks pregnant and she needed to relax and there wasn't much for an unmarried pregnant woman to do around here but sit around and take it all in which was good because it made life much easier.
Austin crept over and knelt down, softly placing his hands over her eyes. "Guess who?" he said before pulling his hands away and sitting next to her, he had just came from the farm and was wearing the usual; Wrangler jeans, a long or short sleeved button up shirt of some kind but today it was a bright and clean, thin white long sleeved shirt button shirt and a dirty tan baseball hat with a worn out bill...looked as comfortable as it was.
"How you feeling?" he asked quietly, he didn't want to disturb the wild or Keely from relaxing and he hoped finding her here wasn't bothering her, he didn't want to seem like he was stalking her but Austin had learned a lot about Keely in the 3 weeks they had already known each other, their friendship was strong and they had more in common then anyone else around.

Keely jumped slightly when Austin covered her eyes, but upon hearing his voice, she immediately relaxed again once she knew who it was. "Hey, didn't expect to see you here," she said in greeting, giving Austin a smile. "I'm doing alright, the doctor's told me I have to be resting more and that I'm not going to get anywhere being as stressed as I have been." She rested one hand lightly on her bump, the other sitting on her knee, the slight breeze that was going past playing with her black curls. She was really quite content right there and then, a lot more calm than she had been in a while in fact.

"I didn't expect to come but..." He quit talking when she started to speak again, He listened and agreed to whatever she said, but he really did agree with what the doctor wanted for her, she needed to have fun an relax, not be stressed...that was no good for a mom to be or a baby in womb.
Austin smiled and just wanted her, she seemed so content in the breeze of the beautiful summer/fall breeze and always beautiful no matter what. "You're awfully stunning today I have to tell you" he said in a soothing voice and touched her hair gently, feeling its softness at his finger tips. He offered a caring smile as he let her hair fall from his fingers back to her neck.

"Uh, thanks..." Keely replied, voice trailing off at the end of thanks, the faintest blush creeping across her cheeks. She wasn't sure how she was meant to react to Austin's actions, to be honest, she wasn't sure of the context in which he did them. She gazed out at the water again, willing herself to stay relaxed, trying not to dwell on it for too long.

"No need to say thanks..." Austin then said and pulled his hand back to prop himself up on, he surly didn't want to make her feel uncomfortable, that would defeat the point of her relaxing and taking it easy all together. He let out a soft sigh and gazed out himself, watching the water rush past but it was a soft noise, not loud and impossible to hear past but a trickle, it was nice.
"Do you like massages?" He questioned softly then quickly added "I just remember while Cara was pregnant with Devin she always got stiff and sore because of how she had to lay and go about on a day...A nice massage always seemed to help her, even the mood pregnancy can put you in..." He too trailed off, again he didn't want to seem weird, he was just being himself...Overly friendly.

"Mmm, I'm not as sore today as I usually get," she replied. She had actually gotten a decent sleep the night before, that was hard to come by these days, she always felt too uncomfortable to sleep.

Austin smirked "Well thats goodm neabs your getting the rest that you need" He glanced at her large belly then back up to her eyes but closed his for a few seconds before opening them back up the lay down the back of his head on his hands "Devin was sick all night last night, he's with my dad right now...Which no doubt my dad is grumbling wondering when I'm gunna get Devin." A sigh pushed its way from his lungs straight past his lips the the open air once he was finished.
Austin was tried, unlike Keely he didn't get nearly any sleep last night, it was always that way when Devin had the stomach flu or a virus...He just didn't get lucky enough to fall asleep inbetween the gagging spells.

"Oh, that's no good...I hope he doesn't stay sick too long," she replied, tone concerned. His words made her think about how she would cope when her child got sick for the first time...She'd probably freak out completely at the slightest sign of a cold or something, even if it didn't actually turn in to anything.

"I think he'll be fine, probably got it from school...He's always brigning home some kind of cold or something. Luckily he hasn't gotten me sick yet." He chuckled, it wasn't funny but he knew now that he said that he woul probably get a cold of some sort next time Devin got sick, thats how it always goes, you go jinxing youtself and your screwed.
Austin smiled at her still concerned look "No worries, I know...Your thinking now how you will react when yours first gets sick...Its not biggy really as long as it isn't serious and ninty nine percent of the time its really nothing but a cold or the flu, I was nervous the first time Devin got sick but its really simple to take care of, though Devin is very whinny when he's sick and just wants to lay down which is all fine and good but he wants me to just lay down too!" He didn't mean to sounds like it annoyed him that his son loved himand wanted to snuggle but when Austin had other things to do and Devin was whinning at him it became hard at times.

Keely gave out a light laugh. "I'll still have a complete freak out anyways, no matter what it is," she replied, shifting her position slightly. "At least him wanting you there is better than him refusing to have anything to do with you when he's sick," she commented, thinking to cousins she had that almost became recluses and were difficult to look after whilst sick.

Austin chuckled himself when she spoke of her freak out, thinking that Cara probably would have freaked out too if she had still been alive after Devin was born.
He sat and thought about the comment she made about Devin being sick and nodded "This is true, its just been a little hard for me. My fathers always made me tough, I don't think I have ever hugged that man or the man me. Not even when my wife died..." he struggled out, clearing his voice. "Now its hard for me to show affection when my kids dying for it." Austin said lastly and shrugged his shoulders, he was very soft spoken and kind hearted but he was still a man and had a hard time showing his emotions.

Keely listened quietly to Austin's words, green eyes watching him as she did. "It might get easier with time, it might not...but at least he'll know that you love him, that's the important thing," she said after a few moments.
ooc: Sorry, it's not that great lol

Austin nodded in agreement. "He knows, at least I think he does." he replied quietly and looked into her eyes, getting a little lost in them before he broke away from the stare "Sorry" was all Austin could peep out, he hated the thought of making her uncomfortable, it again was really the last thing he wanted her to feel towards him.
There was a tiny bit of Austin that was falling for her, his heart. He didn't know why he felt like it after only 3 weeks of knowing her, she wasn't single and she seemed happy in the relationship she was in but he just felt a connection, they were in the same situation, young with kids...or in her case a baby on the way but it was the same difference. She was going to have her baby the same time he did when he was her age, 18.
It was far to young to have a child but Austin managed all on his own, raising Devin without help, his father didn't know how to raise a child because Austin's mother did it...Austin's mother left when he was 17 anyways so really, he wasn't there to help either so Austin did it all on his own. He raised his child without help.

"I'm sure he does," she replied, watching Austin for a few more brief moments before she too looked away. She shifted slightly where she sat again, fixing up the skirt on her dress, sitting on the ground was starting to become uncomfortable, and she knew if she didn't get up and walk around a bit soon she probably wouldn't be able to get back up at all.
