HEY GUYS! So here's the new chapter! Hope you like it! PLEASE OH PLEASE REVIEW AND TELL ME WHAT YOU THINK! BTW I do not own Austin and Ally or any of the songs I post. They belong to their rightful owners. ENJOY!

Ally's POV

I walk out of the practice room and down the stairs to the check out counter and I burst out laughing…."Oh gosh" and start to clean up

after Austin and Dez's big fiasco earlier today. Don't ask. After I start mopping up the syrup all over the floor, then suddenly my dad

runs in gasping for breath.

"Dad what's wrong?!" I shout. Just then, Austin comes bursting out of the room.

"Ally…..your mom is in the hospital…in critical condition…"

"What? No, she can't be!" I said tearing up. So many thoughts come to my mind. I knew this was coming but not so soon. She had

been diagnosed with lung cancer 2 years ago and was expected to live for another 3 years.

"Not this soon." I thought. "Not this soon." I stand there frozen. Not daring to move, staring at the ground. I start to lose my balance

and fall backwards to the floor, but someone catches me. I look up and I see Austin's arms wrapped around me, looking at me with

concern.

We stare at each other for a couple seconds. Seeing him gives me a sense of calm and I regain my composure. He helps me back up to

my feet, and my Dad runs over to me.

"Ally! Are you ok?!"

"Yeah dad, I'm fine." I say feeling my head. "I want to go see mom."

"Alright let's go." My dad says.

Little did I know that I was still holding Austin's hand from when I almost fainted. Probably because I was trying to regain my balance? I

slip my hand away and give him a slight smile. Deep down I know that smile won't be coming back for a while.

Austin's POV

When Ally slipped her hand away from mine I can't help but want her to keep holding on to me. I don't know if she was holding it for

balance or if she actually didn't want to let go. I watch her open the door and I walk over to it. The door closes and she looks back at

me. With the eyes of complete sadness and fright. I know she's missing her mom already. With the way it looks Ally won't be with her

for much longer. Ally talked about her ALL the time, how she was such an impact on her music. With that said, I can't help but feel like I

owe her mom for that. Without Ally I wouldn't be living this dream!

I give Ally a reassuring smile before she gets into the car.

"Bye Ally." I whisper. Because I know I won't be seeing her any time soon. Then it hit me! I run up to the piano room and grap my

quitar and struma a couple chords that Ally was playing earlier. I softly sing the lyrics:

There's no way I can make it without you

Do it without ya

Be here without ya

It's no fun when you're doing it solo

With you it's like whoa.

Yeah and I know

I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I- own this dream

Cause I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I got you with me!

There's no way I can make it without ya

Do it without ya

Be here without ya.

My eyes fill with tears because I know all of those lyrics mean so much more to me than words. I breath out a sigh of relief and put the

guitar down. It's just the chorus but right now I'm spent. Plus, it needs Ally's special touch to make it just right. I walk out of the room

and turn back to close the door, and suddenly I have a flashback to the one moment when I heard her voice and her song for the first

time. Little did I know that those 3 minutes of listening to her would change my whole life and career forever. I walk out of the store

and head for the hospital.

Ally's POV

As I walk down the hallway to my mom's room I feel overcome by the feeling of not having a mother anymore. But I can't let that show

in the last days or even hours of her life. Tears make their way out of my eyes and my dad puts his arm around me as I walk into the

room.

"Ally."

"Hi Mom." I say holding back tears.

"Come here sweetie."

I lay down next to her even though she's surrounded with cords that are most likely keeping her alive. We just lay there for a while and

my mom breaks the silence.

"Ally?" she says

"Yeah Mom?"

"Listen to me sweetheart. I know this is going to be hard for you….

"Mom, stop." I say.

"Honey, just listen. You are an amazing young woman. You have grown from that little girl sitting at the piano to a strong beautiful girl

that sings her heart out whenever, well, whenever no ones around!

She starts laughing. Then continues…..

Just remember that no matter how hard life gets for you and how much you want to quit that I'll always be here for you no matter what

happens."

I'm crying my eyes out at this point. And manage to get a couple words out.

"I'll remember. I promise. I love you mom."

"That's my girl. I love you too."

I wrap my arms around her and fall asleep.

HOPE YOU LIKED IT! Review and tell me what you think! :)
