Hey! I just thought of this idea while listening to Hard to Love by Lee Brice. It has absolutely nothing to with the song. Hope you enjoy! Review! :)

Disclaimer: I don't own Austin and Ally. Must you torture me like this. -_-


"Ally! Just get over it. He didn't love you!" Austin yelled at the brunette. She gaped at him and her eyes filled with new found tears. Austin had never yelled at her like that. Never. He saw her tear-filled eyes and quickly began to apologize for his out-burst. It was too late, however. She was already running outside to the second place she felt safe. The first was Austin, but she was starting to doubt even him.

"Ally! Wait!" Austin called out. She was far gone though. He was too late. He had really blown it this time. He knew it wasn't like other times where she would come running back to him. No, this was different. He could feel it.

He looked for her in every place he could think of. Her house, the park, the practice room. Just about everywhere.

The thing he didn't know was that she was in the one place where she knew she wouldn't be judged. She wouldn't be yelled at. She wouldn't be betrayed.

*Flashback*

"Mommy, look what I found!" Exclaimed an enthusiastic 5 year old Ally. Her mother looked up from her place at the kitchen table and saw her daughter with a stuffed teddy bear. "Ally-Gator, where did you get that?" Her mother asked curiously. Ally looked up with her big brown eyes and giggled. "In your closet." She smiled sheepishly. For she knew not to snoop in her mother's things. Penny, Ally's mother, looked at her daughter with a distant look. As if she was remembering something. "Mommy, are you okay?" Ally asked in her most concerned voice. Her mother smiled slightly and nodded reassuringly. "Yes. Now go put the teddy bear back in place." Her mother demanded. Ally shook her head. "I want to sleep with it tonight." Ally whined. Her mother looked at her surprised. Ally wasn't a whiny child. She was very obedient and polite. It would've shocked anyone to know that she had just disobeyed her own mom. "Ally. Listen to me." Penny said sternly. Ally, however, refused to listen. Instead, she just shook her head repeatedly and stomped her foot madly. "No." Ally would say when her mother told her to listen.

"Allyson, don't disrespect me. I'm your mother." Penny said trying to be as calm as she possibly could. What happened next was a surprise to both of them. Ally hadn't been thinking straight and blurted the worst thing a mother could ever hear. "If I can't keep this bear then I don't want you to be my mother!" Penny stared at her wide-eyed. She was on the verge of tears. That was too much for her. "That's it Ally! Enough! Stop being a brat and go up to your room! If you want that stupid bear then keep it!" And with that Penny went out the door into her car. She needed to cool off, or she too, would say regretful things. She grabbed her keys and drove off to nowhere. She couldn't see very well from the pool of tears in her eyes. She swerved off the road and crashed into a tree. She had many injuries and was put into coma. She never woke up.

*End of Flashback*

That had been the last time Ally spoke to her mom. She never wanted to visit her in the hospital because she knew it was all her fault. If she hadn't been so stubborn, Penny would still be here.

She never told anyone about her mother for one reason. They would all say the same thing. 'I'm sorry.' They all pitied her. No one cared to ask her how she felt, they just assumed she would be sad. It's true she was, but it was much more than that. It was anger mostly. Anger at herself.

She picked at the grass and stared at the tombstone in front of her eyes. "Hey mom." She said smiling sadly. "How are you?" She looked up at the sky and imagined her mother smiling down at her. Her mother had the most amazing smiled. It's no wonder why Lester, Ally's father, had fallen for her. She ran her hands over the engraving.

'Loving mother and wife. Never forgotten. Forever in our hearts.'

She let the tears fall once again. She truly missed her mom.

Ally would give anything to see her again just to tell her how much she really loves her. She wanted to take back everything she said on the day her mom passed away. That's all she asked for.

That had also been the last day anyone she truly cared about yelled at her, until today that is. She doesn't exactly remember what happened to lead up to the argument. One minute she and Austin were happily practicing a song for his next show, and the next she was crying and he was yelling at her. She didn't want to think about it. It would only make her anger towards herself and Austin stronger. Something she wanted to avoid for everyone's sake.

She continued to run her hands over the engraving and the picture that had been placed there on the tombstone. She could hear the birds chirping and the wind whistling. It was the middle of fall, and the leaves were falling to the ground slowly like a light feather.

Fall was Ally's favorite time of the year. Nothing could top the beautiful colors each tree's leaves were. They were all different shades of orange, brown, and red. Sometimes they were too colored for Ally to even classify a color for them. The way the weather was just perfect on certain days really soothed her, especially on stressful days like these. She loved to step on the leaves just to hear the crunch they made.

She stared up at the sky again and noticed that there was not a single cloud. She would usually lie down in the grass and watch the clouds float through the blue sky. Today, however, was a dark and gloomy day. Not one of her top days to be exact.

Ally tried not to think about earlier, but it was a very difficult task. Fall was also Austin's favorite season. They liked the exact same things about it. Everything was just mocking her. They all taunted and reminded her of Austin.

How were things going to be fixed? Were they going to be fixed? Will things ever be the same again?

She had so many questions and no definite answers. She feared many things. But losing her best friend was the most feared. Also the most possible at the moment.


This is a three-shot. This first one is in mainly Ally's POV, the next will be in Austin's POV, and the third and final one will in both POV's and also the solution to this mess. Thanks for reading, now you get to review! Yay! Make me a happy person and pretty please review. Even if you absolutely hated it. :) Thanks!(:
