Hello everyone! Thank you for waiting patiently on Auslly 3! It's finally here!

Disclaimer: I don't own Austin & Ally

Ally's POV

"If you wanna cry, I'll be your shoulder. If you wanna laugh, I'll be your smile. If you wanna fly, I will be your sky. Anything you need that's what I'll be. You can come to me." I sang as I put my 11 month old to bed.

Austin came into the nursery. "Knock knock."

"Shhh!" I said, quickly. "She just fell asleep."

He walked over to the crib and put his arm around me. "She's gonna need a big girl bed soon."

"Don't remind me." I sighed as I slipped out of his grip and headed for our bedroom.

"What'd you mean?" He followed me.

"I mean I don't want her to grow up." I plopped on the bed.

He copied. "Als, I'm the one who's supposed to say that." Austin laughed.

I smirked. "I know. But, it just seems like yesterday when we brought her home. When she smiled and laughed for the first time. Next thing you know, she'll be graduating high school and-"

"Whoa, whoa, whoa. Slow down. She's only 1. Ally, you aren't living in the present."

"What do you mean?"

"I mean you're thinking about the future too much that you're missing out on the present. You're missing out on the good things about her growing up." He answered.

I knew he was right. But I kept going. "Good things? Like what?"

"Like, her moving to the big girl bed, losing her first tooth, learning how to ride a bike! Just because her first times as a baby are over, doesn't mean that all of her first times are over."

I sighed as I put my head on his shoulder. "Thank you."

He smiled. "For what?"

"For being there for me, and knocking some sense into me."

"Well, you know." He paused, then started to sing. "You can come to me."

I laughed and hugged him. I then exhaled, deeply. "Well, I am exhausted! I need rest."

"Same here." He said as he turned out the light.

Exactly an hour later, Addi woke up.

I slapped Austin. "Your turn."

"But, Allyyyy." He whined.

Addison started to cry even louder.

"Fine." He huffed. He threw the covers up and landed on his feet.

I had a slight smirk on my face.

"Addi…" I heard him say, hazily. "Go to sleep. You'll feel so much better in the morning."

"Like that'll help!" I yelled from our bedroom.

"Well, what else am I supposed to do?" He yelled back.

I sat up and turned on the light. Then I stretched out my arms. "Let me see her."

He giggled as he bought her in the room and handed her to me.

"Hey, sweet girl." I rubbed her forehead. "Why are you so upset?"

She looked up at me, her eyes still filled with water, as she started to calm down.

"Y'see that?" I asked Austin. "She just needed a little mommy time."

Austin smiled. "You know, it'll be a long time before she grows outta that."

"I guess." I kissed her head as she gently fell asleep. I put her back in her crib and then Austin and I went to sleep.

"Now, turn around so I can see you!" I said as I clapped my hands together.

There she was. Her dirty blonde hair all tied up in a braided bun, her eyes sparkling with joy. She was a beauty in white.

I was speechless.

"So?!" She asked in excitement.

"You look absolutely breath taking." I smiled.

She ran over to hug me. "I love you, mom!"

My eyes started to water. "I love you, too, Addi."

Austin opened the door. "Knock knock."

Addi smiled. "Hi daddy."

"You look amazing."

"Thanks." She giggled.

"Now, before you go out there, I just want you to remember that you're always welcome at our house in case it doesn't work out."

Addison playfully hit his shoulder. "Ha ha."

"But seriously. I'm proud of you. And I'm glad you found a guy that makes you feel happy."

"Thanks, dad."

The bells started to ring. I turned to face her. My voice cracked as I tried to hold down my tears. "It's time for you to go."

She hugged us both. "Thank you."

I watched my husband walk and hand my daughter over to the boy she loved. He came and sat next to me. I put my head on his shoulder, crying. Not because it was a wedding and it made me cry, but because it all happened so quick. Her life was like a lightning bolt.

"AH!" I instantly sat up, breathing heavily.

Austin turned the light on. "You ok?"

My eyes were wide. "It- it happened so fast!"

"What happened?"

"Addison!"

"What about her?"

I then realized it was all a dream. That our daughter was still 11 months old. That that's what will happen if I keep thinking about the future. I looked at Austin. "I am going to start living in the present and stop worrying about the future!"

And that sets the scene for Auslly 3! :) Love you guys!
