I have not updated in literally almost a year! And I feel really really bad and im so sorry I was so unfaithful to you loyal people who stuck with me through the whole who said life was easy series! I know it sucked and I just wanted to thank each and everyone of you who were there from the beginning! I'm back and I've learned a lot in my English class that will help me with this story. But please understand that updates won't be frequent. I'm making a D in Algebra and grades come first. I have to keep them up to do sports. But I hope I can continue to update as often as I can instead of procrastinating. So, back with a bang, Is the… Who Said Life was Easy remake! That's right, I plan on making it bigger and better! Enjoy my loves!

Ally's POV

I can remember it. Every single detail like it was yesterday. It was about a month ago. What started as a normal day though, would soon change Austin and I's life. Forever.

We were at a party for Austin's second album/ his birthday. His 17th. Someone snuck in Alcohol. My dad was no where around. Neither were his parents. It was getting too late for them to be out on a weekends anyways. Austin, being himself, was all for taking a risk and trying something new. He brought one over to me, but of course little goody two shoes Ally wouldn't cave in to underage drinking. Or so I thought.

"Austin, you know I don't drink."

"I know you haven't, Alls. but I haven't either. Live a little, let loose. We're in 11th grade."

His face got closer to mine and I could feel his breath on my face.

"I won't let anything happen to you. I promise."

I was hesistant, but I took the beer from him and chugged it. Surprisingly, it was kind of good. It gave me a rush. Not the kind of rush I got when Austin and I had our intimate moments, no. this was different. I was craving more. I needed a bigger rush.

It didn't take long for me to get flat out wasted. Austin the same. I was searching for him in the crowd of people. When I finally found him, I wanted him. Like I have never wanted anyone else.

"oh hehe. Heeeey Ally."

"Hey Austin."

"I just wanted to say thanks for this. You were right, I did need to let loose. And I think I need to let loose more."

"What do you mean?"

"I want you-no, need you Austin."

"Well I need you too. I need a girl best friend in my life."

"No, Austin. I NEED you."

"Oooh, that? That… actually sounds pretty nice."

"I trust you, Austin. I know that you won't let anything happen to me. You said so yourself."

*The next thing I know, I was upstairs with Austin, in someone's bedroom. Making love to my best friend.*

And here I was. Standing over my bathroom counter. With Trish by my side. Rubbing my back as these tears fell freely. Through the blurry tears, I was staring at a positive pregnancy test.

What was I going to do? my first album was about to be released, Austin's second was in the making. We were Juniors in high school. Abortion was never an option. Even Austin felt that. There had been an abortion in his family not too long ago. He came over one night, just needing to someone to talk to. He gave a big speech about how wrong it is to kill a living, breathing human being who hasn't even gotten a chance at life yet. This left us with 2 options. Raising the baby, or placing him or her for adoption.

I'm not sure how Austin felt about adoption, its probably the one thing I didn't know about him. But could we stand to just give our baby up to some strangers? Also, could we take care of this human being for the next 18 years? Money wasn't an option with the albums' release, but with school and our careers, could we somehow find time in our day for this child?

I cant tell Austin, not just yet. I need to get an idea of what I want to do first. Of course it's Austin's baby just as much as it is mine, but I don't know how to tell him. Besides that, we'd have to tell our parents, Jimmy Starr, Ronnie Ramone, Dez and all of our other friends. I'm not ready to tell everyone. I wiped my tears, coming back from my thoughts.

"Trish, please don't tell anyone. Not yet."

"I won't Ally, I won't"

The next day seemed to drag on forever as I tried to keep my secret. Everytime I came face to face with Austin, my father, or anyone else who didn't know for that matter; I had to fight the urge of keeping my mouth shut. I had never been good at keeping secrets, so this was especially hard. But somehow, I slipped up. To none other than Dez.

"Hey, Ally." He said as he came up to me at my locker.

"Hey Dez."

"Austin wants to know if you two can go out for sushi after song practice today. He said he'd ask you himself, but he's got a detention."

"Detention? For what?"

"He had too many tardies. So, does sushi sound good to you?"
"It does sound good, but I can't." my hand instinctively went to my stomach without my knowing.

"You can't? Why?"

Now, Dez wasn't the brightest crayon in the box, but he did have the least bit of common sense.

"Ally, are you pregnant?"
"What? No. where would you get such an idea, silly boy?"

"Ally." His face became serious. I sighed.

"Okay yes, I am. Just please please please don't tell Austin. I'll tell him when the time is right."

"You've got to tell him. It's his child too. Wait, you are having a baby right? Not a kitten or anything?"

I rolled my eyes. Classic Dez. "Yes, I'm having a baby."

"Okay good. Because Austin is allergic to cats. Well, I gotta go, see ya later."

"Bye."

Little did I know, that conversation would be crucial. I love Dez like a brother, but the poor boy doesn't know what a secret is. Because soon after detention, when Austin came for song practice, he brought it up. Meaning he knew. And Trish hadn't talked to him all day.

"Oh hey Austin." I said, trying not to show the nervousness in my voice.

"Hey. So, I heard something today."

My heart started beating so fast I thought it was going to pop out of my chest.

"Really? Wha'ja hear?" I tried to sound perky.

"I heard that you got a kitten! Just make sure you keep the little thing away from me, you know I'm allergic."

Oh, Dez. I slowly calmed down.

"Uh, Yep. I know."

"Just kidding. I heard you were pregnant."

How's that for you guys? I felt like leaving a cliffhanger after my long absence was pretty cruel, but I thought that was also a good place to leave off. I'll try to update as soon as I can but until then, see ya!(:
