"Oh…" Ava nodded in understanding. "So that's how you broke your leg. Why would you do something stupid like that when you knew it could end your career?" She asked her father, who chuckled.
"That's exactly what your mom said to me in the hospital, that is after she stopped fussing and worrying."
Ally scoffed. "Well excuse me for being worried. I knew you shouldn't have tried that flip…"
Ava laughed, enjoying her time visiting with her parents. Adam sat beside her, smiling gently. Anthony was playing with his legos on the floor. "So what happened next?" Ava inquired.
"Well…" Austin sighed. "I was rushed to the hospital, I don't remember much but it was not pretty."
x.x
Ally screamed as she watched her fiancee crumble to the floor. As he fell, he hit his head quite hard and it knocked him out. The crowd and security was freaking out within seconds. Ally ran over to Austin, who was barely awake as a result of his rough fall. An ambulance was called and park security ushered everyone out, promising them refunds on the show.
Ally could already hear the sirens, but that wasn't her main focus. She teared up as she kneeled by Austin's side, gripping his hand tightly. "Austin… can you hear me? P-please give me a sign if you can hear me…" She couldn't hold it in anymore and she started crying in concern.
He squeezed her hand weakly. His eyes were half-lidded and he seemed quite pale. "I love you…" He whispered, letting her know that he was still there.
He wasn't dead. She didn't even know why she was freaking out so much. He fell and probably broke his leg and he possibly has a concussion. She knew he wouldn't die.
Yet, she worried. Because she had a tendency to have panic attacks easily. And she loved him.
The paramedics arrived, loading him on a stretcher because of his obvious inability to walk. She climbed in the back with him, not wanting to leave his side.
He started coming to after they got him situated. Ally's meltdown left her with red-rimmed eyes and mascara stained streaks across her cheek, and that was the first thing he noticed. "A-Ally?"
She was the first thing he saw as his eyes adjusted to the light. Ally wanted so bad to yell at him for his stupidity, but her concern for him overpowered any other emotion.
"Austin…" She kissed his hand, which she was still holding. "Don't ever scare me like that again…"
He sat up slowly, using his arms to help him stay upright. He winced as he lifted his head from the pillow. The paramedics wrapped it up right away.
"You're lucky son…" A young EMT told him. He had dark brown hair and glasses, and he kind of reminded Ally of one of their former classmates. "That was a nasty fall, but it seems to be just a bad bump on the head. Also, you're really lucky that your girlfriend is taking good care of you."
Austin smiled and kissed Ally's cheek. "She's my fiancee actually.. We are getting married in July."
The EMT smiled. "Good for you. We will be at the hospital soon. Your head seems to be fine, but we need to make sure that you don't have a concussion. Also that leg of yours looks pretty bad. Just looking at it, I'd say it's broken."
Austin's eyes widened at this. "Broken?!" He tried to move his leg and shrieked in pain, just now realizing the throbbing, stabbing feeling whenever me tried to move it.
"Woah, I wouldn't recommend that." The EMT said. "It'll only hurt worse if you move it."
Austin immediately sat still, feeling pain and guilt that swallowed his entire being. How would he perform? Would Jimmy be pissed? Will this prolong the wait on their album? How was he supposed to perform at Dez's wedding in a month.
Dez's wedding was in a month.
All of these thoughts raced through his brain, and he didn't even realize that Ally and the EMT had been conversing the whole time.
"So your name is Eric?" Ally asked.
"Yup. Eric Christian." He shook Ally's hand. "Why do you ask?"
"You remind me of someone I went to high-school with. Same name too." He answered.
"Did you go to Marino High in Miami? Wait a second, it's Ally Dawson right?"
Ally nodded and he chuckled. "Yeah! I remember you from the 'Ally Way' video!"
Her face flushed in embarrassment. "Yup. That was me…" She turned her focus back to Austin, who seemed to be lost in thought. "Honey, are you okay?"
"Pfft.. why wouldn't I be okay?" He answered in a very shaky, nervous voice. A voice he only used when he was lying or in trouble.
Just then, the ambulance arrived at the hospital, and Austin was wheeled into a room and put on a small bed. They attached an IV bag to him to keep him stable, which was a struggle because Austin is terrified of needles. However, they managed to do it, and the doctor left the room, promising to come back soon with the results.
Austin squirmed in the uncomfortable bed. "I hate hospitals… they always freak me out…"
Ally sighed. "Well, I did tell you not to do that flip…"
He rolled his eyes slightly and sighed. "Yeah… I know… but what am I supposed to tell Dez? He was counting on me to put on an awesome performance at his wedding, and I don't want to let him down."
"Well," Ally grabbed his hand. "You just have to be honest with him and tell him what happened. You might not even have to. The word about your accident is all over the Internet."
His eyes widened and his voice went up a few octaves. "The Internet?!"
"You know," Ally continued. "The place where people go to look stuff up and shop-"
"Ally, I know what the Internet is… I just wanted to be the one to tell Dez. I didn't want him to find out through the tabloids."
Before Ally could say anything more, the door opened followed by Trish and Dez, who were carrying a bunch of get well balloons, stuffed animals, and flowers. Actually, Dez was carrying everything, including Trish's purse.
"Austin!" Trish cried worriedly and ran over to hug him. "Are you okay?!"
Austin smiled and squeezed her back gently. "I am now Trish, thanks for car-"
"Of all the selfish and idiotic things you've ever done Austin Moon, this one takes the cake!" Trish scolded him loudly and he flinched back, confused by her sudden change of mood. She sighed, "Austin, as your friend, of course I'm worried. But as your manager, I have to scold you for the stupidity of your actions."
"But on the bright side," Dez said. "I bought you some cards, flowers, stuffed animals, and balloons to help you feel better!" Dez set all the goodies on the table beside him.
Trish chuckled nervously. "And I signed the card! Because I care that much about you."
Austin smiled. "Thanks guys, but you didn't have to do all this! It's just a broken foot! I'm not recovering from surgery or anything."
"Alright." Dez picked up the stuffed bunny and ducky and headed to the door. "Suit yourself."
Austin's eyes widened. "Wait! Dez! I'll keep the stuffed animals!" He fought off a minor blush as his fiancee and Trish looked at him in amusement. Dez brought back the stuffed animals and Austin snatched them and nuzzled them.
Just then, the doctor walked into the room. "Austin Monica Moon?"
Austin set down the stuffed bunny and sighed, "That's me." Dez chuckled at the mention of his best friend's middle name and Austin slightly glared at him.
"Well, Austin…" The doctor started. "You took a very hard fall, but miraculously, you don't have a concussion. Only a small gash on your head that can be fixed with some stitches."
Austin whimpered slightly at the mention of the needle and Ally stroked his palm with her thumb to calm him down.
"Also, you have broken your leg in two different places, so you will be required to wear a cast. You need to stay off your foot for the next three months."
"Three months?!" Austin cried. "But, that means no performing… Jimmy is gonna kill me… And, Ally and I are getting married in July… will I still be able to dance with her?"
The doctor walked over. "If you are able to rest and stay off of your foot for the next couple of months, you may be able to make a full recovery by July. It's all up to you, though. Ally, you live with Austin yes?"
She nods. "Yes, we have a house together."
The doctor nodded. "If you could, I would like to discuss some details with you in the other room." Ally kissed Austin's cheek and followed the doctor into the hallway, Trish followed, leaving Austin and Dez alone.
"Buddy," Austin took a deep breath. "I'm really sorry. I really wanted to make your wedding special for you, and I messed that up… are you mad?"
Dez smiled at his friend. "Austin, I can never be mad at you. I am a little disappointed, but the most important thing is that you're okay. Also, you can make it up to me by letting me plan your bachelor party."
Austin grinned. "You're going to have to clear that up with Ally first."
Ally, Trish, and the doctor walked back into the room. Ally resumed her original position of holding Austin's hand, as the doctor jotted down some notes on his clipboard. "So, I have taught Ally how to change the dressings and how to properly take care of you while your leg heals. Elevate it as much as possible and we will schedule another check up in two weeks. Sound good?"
Austin nodded. "Thank you Dr. Sullivan."
Dr. Sullivan smiled. "You're very welcome. We need to get you your stitches before that cut gets infected," He pointed out the damp redness that stained Austin's blonde hair.
"I'll call Jimmy and Ronnie." Trish offered. "But just warning you, they will not be happy."
"Ooh! Tell Jimmy I say hi!" Dez said. "And Ally, we need to discuss a certain bachelor party in July that may or may not include cheerleaders and reruns of Zaliens 8."
x.x
It was now April 19th, nearly a month since the accident. The fans were scared for Austin and constantly checking up on him through Tweeter and other forms of social media. As Trish predicted, Jimmy and Ronnie weren't happy at all. Austin could still perform, but only sitting down. It would be at least six months until he would be able to dance like he used to. Ally helped Austin with everything. She helped him get up, get downstairs, get into the car, and even helped him shower so he wouldn't get his cast wet. Ally ended up seeing a lot more of him that she thought she wouldn't see until her wedding night, but they were both so comfortable around each other that it was okay. Dez's wedding was coming closer and closer. Carrie had gotten her dress and the dresses for all the bridesmaids, which Trish was not happy about. Dez and his groomsmen got tuxes. Dez's younger niece, Destiny, would be the flower girl and Carrie's five year old cousin, Connor, would be the ring bearer. Trish helped Carrie and Dez's mom set the whole thing up, but they still needed a cake and decorations. There was a lot to do.
As of now, Austin was still on bedrest, unable to move unless it was necessary. Austin is a very high energy person and he needed to be moving all the time. He hated being restricted.
Ally came up, with a cup of soup and a PB&J sandwich on a tray. "Hey, how are you feeling?"
Austin sighed, and stared at the ceiling. "Same as yesterday...and the day before…."
She smiled at him sadly, feeling bad. "I'm sorry, Austin." She set the tray down on his lap and he sat up to eat. "But hey, things will get better. The doctor said you'll be able to walk within two weeks if you keep resting."
He nodded and took a bit out of his sandwich. "I know, I just miss performing. It's something I lost once, and I don't want to lose it again. Also, I want to be able to dance at our wedding. And at Dez's wedding…"
Ally saw the sadness in his eyes. "It's okay. Just come here…"
Austin set the tray on the nightstand next to him and rested his head on Ally's stomach. She gently ran her hands through his wavy blond hair and she softly hummed. He rested his eyes and sighed in contentment. "Thank you for doing all of this, Ally. You are amazing."
"In sickness and health, remember?" She giggled. "I know we haven't recited our vows yet, but they were always in my heart."
He opened his eyes and looked up at her, "Speaking of, I was wondering if you'd like the idea of us writing our own vows?"
She smiled. "I would love that. But, you aren't the best writer, Austin…"
"I'll figure it out." He answered. He paused for a second. "Hey, Ally?"
"Hmm?"
He sat up to make eye contact with her. "My leg may be broken, but my lips aren't." He smiled coyly as Ally rolled her eyes and leaned in to kiss him deeply.
x.x
It was finally here, May 5th, the eve before Dez and Carrie's wedding.
They spent the whole day at the rehearsal dinner, which was designed to help things run smoothly, but that was not the case. Dez's great aunts and uncles were an hour late, and Carrie complained that the turquoise bridesmaid dresses were the wrong shade of purple.
Yep, it did not go smoothiely.
But, everyone finally showed up who was involved with the ceremony, Dez's niece finally learned how to scatter the flower petals instead of drop them in one big pile, and for once, Dez and Chuck did not fight.
Austin was now in a boot, which he was sad about because he liked his yellow cast with random lyrics that Ally had scribbled everywhere. However, he was now able to walk and slightly dance. But only a slow dance, which he was fine with because he promised Ally to dance with her at the reception.
He wouldn't see Ally until late that night, because it was the last night for Dez and Carrie to be single. And a lot was going to go on.
Carrie didn't know what a bachelorette party was until Trish explained to her. She didn't even know what a bachelorette even was. Carrie, Trish, Ally, Didi, and Piper decided to go into the city. They went to a Taylor Swift concert, which Ally was happy about.
And so here they were, in the middle of a huge crowd of families and screaming teenage girls. Ally was surprised that she wasn't recognized yet.
"Remind me again why we are spending the party seeing Taylor Swift?" Piper shouted over the roars of the crowd.
"Because, this is Carrie's last night to be single, and what represents 'single life' better than Taylor Swift!" Trish yelled back and danced to the music. Piper shrugged and continued to dance with everyone else.
Ally was enjoying the concert until she felt her phone vibrate in her pocket. She pushed her way out of the screaming crowd and went to the lobby. Her ears were buzzing.
"Hello! Austin?!"
Austin, who was on the other line, jerked away the phone from his ear. "Geez Alls, there's no need to yell. What's going on? Where are you?"
She ran outside super fast. "I'm sorry, I'm at a Taylor Swift concert and it was difficult to hear."
"Awh…" Austin whined. "I wanna go to a Taylor Swift concert… we're about to play laser tag, but Chuck and Dez are fighting about the team names…."
Austin was not allowed to run or put extreme pressure on his leg. He could still play, but he would be forced to walk the entire time. Ally chuckled. "That sounds like them. Who all is there?"
"Me, Dez, Chuck, Jimmy, Johnny, and Logan."
Ally nodded. Johnny was one of the guys who worked in the studio with them and Logan was Didi's boyfriend. "Wait, Jimmy is there?!"
"Yeah, he's one of Dez's groomsmen. It took a lot of pleading but I got him to come. He doesn't seem to happy though." Austin looked behind him at the fighting boys and the older man, who was rubbing his temples.
"He just doesn't seem like the guy to go laser tagging. He seems more professional than that. That's like imagining him going down a waterslide."
Austin laughed out loud. "Well the game is starting soon. I just called to check up on you.
Ally smiled. "That's sweet. But depending on how late this concert goes and whatever the girls have planned after, I may not be home tonight."
His tone got serious. "Ally Dawson, you are not leaving me alone tonight. You're not the type to break curfew."
Ally grinned, hearing the joking tone is his otherwise serious voice. "Well, I'm not the type to date famous pop stars either, but I think that worked out in my favor."
He smiled. "I think so too. But I will see you tomorrow?"
"Yes. I may be only walking down the aisle as a bridesmaid, but in just a couple of months, I'll be walking down the aisle to become your wife."
His smile widened. "I like the sound of that. I'll see you later Ally, I love you."
"I love you too." She couldn't wipe the grin off her face as she hung up. She headed back inside, where the crowd was chanting "Shake It Off".
"Where'd you go?!" Trish shouted as Ally resumed her place beside her.
"Austin called."
Trish snatched Ally's phone. "Tonight is a night to be away from guys. No Austin."
x.x
"No Ally." Chuck scolded as he took Austin's phone from his grip.
"What was that for? I was just texting her to see how she was doing…" Austin replied in an annoyed tone.
Chuck sighed. "Tonight is a night to be away from girls. As much as I want to be with my Trishy-poo, I know Dez needs time with his friends."
Austin looked at him weirdly, not sure if it was the mention of Trish's nickname or that he called Dez his friend that threw him off.
Dez bounded over. "I won the jackpot!" He squealed.
"You bought a lottery ticket?" Chris asked.
"No, I won the arcade jackpot! Five thousand tickets!" He started pulling them out of his satchel, which would ultimately take a good ten minutes.
Jimmy rolled his eyes as Austin gasped at the thousands of tickets. "No way! That's way better than winning the lottery!"
Chuck sneered at him. "Easy for you to say, you're rich."
"C'mon!" Dez dragged them away. "I wanna go bowling next!"
After winning many prizes at the arcade, bowling, and downing bottles of root beer, they decided to call it a night.
Austin ended up getting home at two in the morning. He groaned, knowing he would have to get up at five hours. He kicked off his shoes and bounded upstairs to change into his pajama pants. Sure enough, Ally was already passed out and snuggled into the covers.
He smiled softly and quietly slid in next to her. He wrapped an arm around her waist and buried his face into her soft hair. "So you came home after all…" He whispered.
She smiled. "I'll always come home to you."
x.x
The next morning came by fast. Austin and Ally scrambled to get up and get ready for the day. After an hour, the arrived at Miami gardens, where the spring wedding would take place.
Ally went to the back to help Carrie get ready. All of the bridesmaids were dressed in turquoise and pink frilly dresses with off the shoulder straps. Didi and Ally wore the turquoise dresses and Piper and Trish were in the pink. Their hair was curled and pinned to the side. Carrie's dress was very fluffy on the bottom and it had a turquoise sash in the middle. The bodice was covered in feathers and the top was strapless. She had a very long veil and wore pink flowers in her hair. The flowers that she would carry was a mixture of turquoise and pink roses. They were in a back room, making sure that everything was perfect.
"You look beautiful, sis." Piper smiled. "I'm so proud of you."
Carrie grinned and hugged her twin sister. "Thank you. I'm so excited but also very nervous."
Trish picked up a clipboard. An earpiece resided in her ear so she would be able to keep in touch with the catering and limo people. "That's to be expected. But this wedding is going to go off without a hitch. She walked over a tripped over the long, frilly pink dress. But you could've done better about choosing the dresses."
Ally rubbed Trish's back. "There is no need to be stressed. Everything will turn out fine, just you wait and see."
Didi giggled. "This is Dez we're talking about though." Her long, curled, red locks and turquoise dress reminded everyone of princess Ariel.
Trish took a deep breath. "Alright. Catering has arrived and everything is ready at the reception hall. The flowers and decor are set in the gardens and people are starting to arrive. It's time to get this show on the road."
Meanwhile, on the other side of the building, Dez was getting ready. He took less longer than Carrie, but he still wanted to make sure that he looked his best. His hair was gelled up, as well as Chucks. Jimmy and Johnny looked sharp in their tuxes and Austin was gelling his hair. Chuck and Johnny wore pink flowers in their front pockets. Austin, Jimmy, and Logan had turquoise flowers.
Dez sighed. "This is it. I can't believe this day is finally here…"
Austin smiled and pat his best friend's back. "I'm so proud of you, Dez. I'm glad that you found the one to spend the rest of your life with. Your first girlfriend, nonetheless."
"I know." He grinned. "And I am going to be here for you when you and Ally get married. I can get some great footage for my 'Austin and Ally Story'." He hugged Austin. "I love you, man."
Austin hugged back. "I love you too. Where are you guys going on your honeymoon?"
"The Bahamas." Dez answered without hesitation. "Carrie didn't want to be too far away from home. Also, they have beautiful beaches, wonderful cruises, and a large variety of different birds." He did his bird gesture and Austin laughed.
Dez's father, Dennis, came in. "Hey son, are you ready? You and Austin need to be out there in five minutes."
Dez took a deep breath and nodded. "Let's do this."
x.x
Dez stepped onto the altar with Austin beside him on his left. He looked to the audience of people sitting on the white garden benches. He saw his mother, Donna, and his father in the first row, smiling proudly. He saw his great aunt Edna with his cousins Jessica, Donnie, and Liv. He saw his great grandma Ruth and his great grandpa Rufus. He also saw his cousin Dwayne Wade with the rest of his family. Near the back sat Trish's parents with JJ. Ally's family was also there. Her mother wasn't there, but Lester sat next to Mike and Mimi. Carrie's family took up the other side of the aisle, including her parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles, and cousins. The flowers were in full bloom and the day was beautiful. The only thing stopping it from being a perfect day was Miami's muggy weather.
The music started and Dez took a deep breath. This was the moment he had been waiting for.
The officiant stood beside Dez and Austin stood on the other side. The bridesmaid and groomsmen starting making their way down the aisle. Didi and Logan were first. Didi's long turquoise dress dragged across the sidewalk but she still looked elegant.
Next was Trish and Chuck. Trish linked arms with her boyfriend and hugged him close to her side. She smiled at Dez as the stood in their places.
Ally walked down with Johnny. Austin was awestruck by her beauty and he could already imagine what she would look like walking down the aisle. He couldn't wait for that day.
There was an uneven amount of groomsmen and bridesmaids, so Jimmy walked alone. Kira attended the wedding as well, looking elegant in a mint green dress.
Piper, being Carrie's sister and maid of honor, walked next. Her dress was the same style as the rest, but it had a silver sash and she carried Carrie's turquoise and pink roses.
Destiny and Connor came next. Destiny was still quite young, so her mother helped her with the flowers. Connor was a bit older and carried the rings proudly to the front.
Everyone's eyes turned to look at the bride to be, who was being escorted down the aisle by her father. She looked more beautiful than any of the flowers in the garden. She glowed with the happiness of her wedding day. Dez sniffled as a few tears of joy escaped his eyes.
Carrie's father gave his blessing and handed her to Dez. They stood together, as the officiant began the very long speeches that came with the ceremony. They couldn't keep their eyes off of each other as they recited the vows. They both started crying, which made everyone else start crying.
"Dezmond Hatfield Wade, do you take Carrie May Fletcher to be your lawfully wedded wife?"
Dez smiled and squeezed her hands. "I do."
The officiant turned to Carrie. "And do you, Carrie May Fletcher, take Dezmond Hatfield Wade to be your lawfully wedded husband?"
She smiled brightly and nodded enthusiastically. "I do!"
They exchanged their rings and Dez kissed her sweetly. Austin took Dez's camera and snapped a picture. It was a moment they would always remember.
x.x
After a bit of downtime, the wedding party made their way to the reception hall, which was in a beautiful hotel nearby. Dez and Carrie were still in their limo, but the rest of the wedding party sat down at the table.
"Wow." Trish sighed. "Wedding's are a lot of work." She leaned her head on Chuck's shoulder. Chuck shifted his eyes and smiled.
"But Carrie looked gorgeous!" Didi exclaimed. "I'm surprised that she didn't drop the ring."
Austin sat down, not able to stand up for long periods of time. "I'm so happy for him. I still remember when it was our first day of second grade."
Ally sat down beside him. "I know. I can't believe we've all known each other for nearly ten years. It goes by so fast."
The guests started piling into the beautiful ballroom. Soon later, Dez and Carrie came down the stairs and sat down at the head of the table. Everyone clapped and congratulated them.
Austin stood up and clinked his glass. "Attention everyone! It's time for toasts!" Everyone turned their attention to Austin. "I would like to start by saying, that Dez is my best friend. He's been my best since we were kids. We grew up together, and it is so weird that after all we've done together, that there are some things we are going to be doing separately." He turned to his best friend. "Dez, you have always been there for me and I'm so proud of you. You went to L.A. to achieve your dreams, and I know that you will be an amazing director one day. Carrie, thank you for making him happy. I love you both and I know you two will be very happy together. To the bride and groom!"
Everyone repeated and cheered, clinking their glasses together and celebrating. It was definitely a time to celebrate. Piper made a similar speech and dinner was served. Ally had made the wedding cake, and this time, it was whole and perfect. Dez and Carrie fed each other the cake and it got smeared all over their faces.
Austin grabbed a microphone and sat on a stool. "It's now time for the bride and groom's first dance as a married couple. I can't perform like I was planning to, but hopefully this works. This is for you, Dez and Carrie!" He set the microphone on the stand and grabbed his guitar.
You like mismatched socks with polka dots
You like your pizza cold; I think that's hot
You like to swim at night when the moon is full
You think that makes you strange; I think that's cool
And you say you're scared
That I won't be there
Baby, I swear
I'm not going anywhere
You can change your hair
Five times a week
You can change your name
Get a little bit crazy
You can dance in the rain
Rockin' secondhand chic
But I live for the day
That I'm calling you baby
'Cause I'm falling for you
For everything that you do
Baby, I'm falling for you
You might be crazy
But baby,
I'm falling for you
I seem predictable, vanilla plain.
And all the mannequins they look the same.
There's no one else like you one of a kind.
And I'm a lucky guy 'cause you're all mine.
And you say, you're scared
That I won't be there
Baby, I swear
I'm not going anywhere
You can change your hair
Five times a week
You can change your name
Get a little bit crazy
You can dance in the rain
Rockin' secondhand chic
But I live for the day
That I'm calling you baby
'Cause I'm falling for you
For everything that you do
Baby, I'm falling for you
You might be crazy
But baby,
I'm falling for you
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
You might be crazy
But baby I'm falling for you
You like mismatched socks with polka dots
You like your pizza cold
Yeah, I'm falling for you, falling for you
You can change your hair
Five times a week
You can change your name
Get a little bit crazy
You can dance in the rain
Rockin secondhand chic

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
You might be crazy
But baby I'm falling for you
Dez and Carrie ended their dance with a kiss and everyone clapped and cheered. Trish took the microphone and announced that the dance floor was open to everyone.
Austin turned to Ally. "Would you like to dance?"
She smiled. "I'd love to."
He led her out to dance floor, where they began dancing and swaying in harmony. His moves were small, because of his leg, but he held her close and they kept dancing.
"This seems oddly familiar." She commented, referencing their dance at Trish's quinceanera.
"Yeah." He smiled. "Who knew we'd end up here? I guess we are just dancing our way through life."
She nodded and rested her head on his chest, listening to the steady beat off his heart. The soft spotlight landed on her engagement ring, sending reflections of sparkles on the walls.
Forever was coming.
I'm sorry for the rush. I had to finish up this chapter as soon as I could and I have tons of school work to do. Next chapter is the Auslly wedding. Should be up by next week. Thank you for all of your support.
The song was "Falling for You" by R5.
