Author's Note: Here is the final installment of this story. I hope you enjoy it, this one starts out a little hot but, no fear, it's still PG-13. Thanks for all of the reviews!

Disclaimer: I do not own any part of Disney's Austin and Ally, but I don't mind borrowing them for a bit.

The kiss was hot and getting hotter by the moment. Austin had one hand deep in Ally's heavy, dark hair and his other had crept under her sweatshirt to caress her back. Ally, in an attempt to get closer to Austin, had slid her leg over his and wrapped one hand into the fabric of his shirt with her other hand toying with the hair at the nape of his neck.

She moaned softly into his mouth and Austin reacted by pulling her even closer, practically onto his lap. She shifted in his arms so she was sitting sideways in his lap, her legs stretched across him and onto the couch. Their mouths were still connected but now her hands began roaming. She untwisted his shirt from her small hand and smoothed the fabric over his chest, caressing the muscles that she found there.

It was Austin's turn to moan as she brushed her hand gently over one of his tight nipples. He tightened his grip and the hand under her sweatshirt began to toy with the skin that was now showing between her cami and her yoga pants.

Ally gasped as she broke away for a moment to desperately introduce some much-needed air into her lungs. Austin, who apparently didn't need to breathe at all, latched his mouth onto her neck, licking and sucking while running his nose from just under her jawbone to the base of Ally's throat.

Ally slid herself closer to Austin as he slipped his hand up under her camisole to touch the skin of her bare back. Ally groaned as his hand made contact with her skin, feeling the heat and tingles produced from his touch.

Austin pulled back for a moment glorying in the fact that Ally was on his lap, in his arms. He tilted his head to brush her lips with his again leaving her wanting more as his mouth charted a course for her ear. He licked at the shell of her ear making Ally shiver even closer to him before grazing his lips back across her cheek and finding her soft, pliant mouth again.

Their mouths melted together, tongues teasing and touching, heat building between them. The kiss continued, hot and bothered, consuming them.

The first time Lester called her, Ally thought she heard something but she was too caught up in Austin to do anything about it. The second time he called she broke the kiss and dragged air frantically into her lungs so she could answer him.

When her dad said how late it was she and Austin looked at each other in shock.

"Crap," Austin whispered checking the clock on the wall. "My parents are going to freak if I don't get home soon."

"I'm so sorry," Ally whispered back.

"No, no, no. You don't get to be sorry about this. I hope we have many more chances to lose track of time like this. Let me answer your dad and then I have to go, but I'll see you tomorrow."

Ally looked at Austin in wonder as he called up to her dad. She was still marveling at him when he raised his eyebrows at her and shook her arm lightly to get her to answer her dad. "Okay, Dad," she called before whispering to Austin, "What did he just say?

Austin chuckled softly as he gently slid her off his lap and stood up, pulling her up after him. "He said that I need to say goodnight to you and go home but he'd see me tomorrow and that you should see me out and you and he would talk in the morning."

Ally laughed at Austin's whispered explanation of what she missed as she followed him to the door. "Thank you for that rundown," she whispered glancing up the stairs but her dad had gone back to bed already.

"Anytime, I know I was completely distracting you with my good looks," Austin smiled down at her.

Ally laughed as she tried to find her footing, but her equilibrium was off, that kissing session had really thrown her for a loop. "You were distracting me, I don't know if it was your good looks or..," she trailed off, blushing madly.

"Or...my awesome kissing skills?" Austin offered causing Ally's blush to deepen even more. He reached out and traced his fingers from her collarbone up her neck to tuck her hair behind her ear again, delighting in how her eyes darkened and her mouth fell open a little. "I'm just happy that we have worked things out between us and I can't wait to see you tomorrow."

Ally blushed even deeper and looked away. Austin grinned and slid his hand under her chin to tilt her face up to his, relishing the fact that he was able to touch her like this now. "I really can't wait to see you tomorrow," he whispered leaning down to brush her lips with his lightly.

Ally lifted herself onto her tiptoes and slid her arms around his neck, pulling him down to fuse their mouths together once again. His mouth met hers happily and his tongue plundered her mouth briefly before he reluctantly pulled back.

"I can't wait to see you tomorrow, either," Ally sighed. "What time are you coming to the store?"

Austin smiled down at her and brushed her hair back from her face, cupping both cheeks as she smiled up at him. "I can be there by ten, we can work for a while then get some lunch, if that's alright?"

Ally smiled back at him. "That sounds good to me. Goodnight, Austin."

"Goodnight, Ally," he answered, leaning down to capture her lips with his again. Ally felt his arms slide around her and lift her slightly as he tilted his head to deepen the kiss. Her arms tightened around his neck as she enjoyed the feelings coursing through her. Wow, he was a good kisser, No, he was a great kisser, no, amazing might be a better word. Wait, what was she trying to think about when Austin had his hands on her, his mouth on her?

"This is going to be a problem, isn't it?" he asked softly when they broke apart and he set her gently back on her feet reluctantly dropping his arms causing Ally to gasp and a hurt look to cross her face.

"No, no," he said quickly. "That's not what I meant. It's just...I'm never going to get enough of you now that I've got you. You need to remember that I'm stuck on you. We're never going to get any work done if I can't keep my hands off you."

Ally laughed up at Austin, her eyes sparkling at his words and her racing heart slowing down. He had freaked her out a little, tiny bit there but now she completely agreed. "Probably, since I can't seem to get enough of you either, but I'm not going anywhere."

"Me either," he answered before tilting his head and speaking again. "Except if I don't go home soon my parents might send out a search party and your dad might kill me if he catches us doing this kissing thing, so..."

Ally giggled as she glanced up the stairs again but there was no sign of her dad. "Okay, well you should go then."

Austin frowned at her. "You want me to go?" he pouted.

It was Ally's turn to reassure him. "No, not really, but it is getting late. I'm very glad that we talked and worked things out and that we're going to try again. I missed being your girlfriend."

"I missed being your boyfriend, but we have to try harder this time." Austin grew serious as he tried to say what he wanted to say. "We have to remember to just be ourselves, that we actually like each other the way we are and not let anyone else's bad advice come between us. I promise that I'll try harder this time. Deal?"

Ally smiled back and almost got lost in his eyes, they were so sparkly and such a pretty shade of hazel with gold flecks. She had to make herself focus on the words he had just said. "I know. I promise that I'll try harder this time as well. We really have to keep in mind that there is no need for us to change to please the other."

"Exactly," he agreed smiling down at her, shifting from one foot to the other. He needed to get home, he knew his parents would be calling any minute but he just couldn't make himself want to get in his car and drive home. He just wanted to stay here and talk to Ally some more.

Ally turned slightly and lifted her hand to play with the lock on the door not quite ready to send Austin off, she could stand here talking to him all night. She pulled her sweatshirt tighter around herself and pouted up at Austin for a minute. "I wish you could stay."

Austin agreed wholeheartedly. "I wish I could, too. We both know that wouldn't be good for us though, right? My parents would be angry and your dad would probably find a shotgun somewhere to chase me around with..."

"Well, I can't speak for your parents, but my dad doesn't really get how punishments work," she breathed quietly, her brown eyes flicking over his face.

Austin grinned wryly as he turned toward the door. "Not punishments for you, but I'm betting he could dream some up for me."

Ally laughed at Austin's expression and unlocked to door to swing it open so he could go home.

He smiled down at her and pulled her into a tight hug breathing in the scent of her shampoo and hair products trying not to think too much about the fact that she was pressed up against him tightly and her arms were creeping around his waist holding him snugly. "Good night, again," he whispered into her hair.

Ally was safe and warm in his tight embrace and she didn't want to let him go, but her dad was going to figure out how to punish her one day, she really didn't want it to be tonight. "Goodnight, Austin. Drive carefully."

He released her and turned to make his way out of her house to his car. He turned and winked at her causing color to flood her cheeks again as she watched him walk gracefully away.

As he drove away from Ally's, Austin could hardly believe how well it had gone. He had Ally as his girlfriend and he was determined to make it work this time. He would do his best to remember that while there were no guarantees in life, he really could do anything with Ally by his side. He would probably always struggle to not be tongue-tied when he was around her, but he knew she would always stand by him.

As Ally climbed into bed, she smiled to herself. She was so happy that Austin had come back over and that they had talked. She was positive that they would make it work. She just had to focus on not freaking out around him and just being herself and enjoying him for who he was. When they were together and remembered all of those things, there was nothing that they couldn't accomplish.

Ally woke early the next morning and rolled onto her back grinning to herself as she remembered last night. She lifted a hand to her mouth which was no longer swollen from Austin's kisses. She laughed as she hopped out of bed and made her way downstairs to find herself some breakfast.

Ally skipped into the kitchen, singing under her breath. She pulled open the refrigerator and perused it's contents. She almost jumped out of her skin when her father spoke behind her.

"Good morning, Sweetie, you sound happy today."

Ally had flung herself into the fridge after spinning around crazily. She pushed back the hair that had fallen over her face. "Good morning, Dad."

Lester chuckled to himself at the sight of his flustered and disheveled daughter leaning up against the fridge. "What did Austin need?

"Austin?" Ally queried looking at her father in confusion.

"He came over last night, late," Lester said eyeing his daughter as she began to blush. "I was just wondering what he wanted."

Ally was completely flustered, what was she supposed to say? What if her dad said they couldn't date? He didn't say that the first time, but you never know what he was going to say or do now.

"Ally?" Lester pushed, waiting for her answer.

She glanced at him and blurted, "He wanted me."

"Excuse me?" Lester asked as he became almost as flustered as Ally was.

Ally covered her mouth with her hand and started babbling. "Dad, that's not what I meant. I meant that he just wanted me, not, you know, because he wants me, wants me. But, because he wants to date me again. I know you may not be very happy about this, but, Dad, I can promise you..."

She trailed off as her father held his hand up to stop her in mid-tirade. "Ally, I like Austin. I trust you and I trust him. If you want to date him, I am completely fine with that."

Ally looked at him with wide eyes. "What?"

Lester shook his head and laughed. "Honey, he makes you happy. I like it when you're happy. Just, tell him that on weeknights you need to be home, alone, by 10 and on weekends the same goes except by 1. Is that agreeable?"

Austin burst out laughing at the look on Ally's face. He slid closer to her on the piano bench and slipped his arm around her waist, tugging her into his side. "Seriously, he asked you if your curfew was 'agreeable' to you? Your dad is hilarious."

Ally chuckled as she relaxed against Austin. "Yes, he really asked me that. I told him I had to think about it."

He laughed even harder at her words, imagining the discussion that Mr. Dawson and Ally had had. "You have to think about it?" he asked, spluttering through his laughter. "What did he say to that?"

"Not to push my luck," Ally answered before she began laughing as well.
