Disclaimer; Woo I'm back! So I did my RE exam today and considering I only revised the first 2 pages of the wrong booklet, I think I did pretty well. Shout out to Rachel! Dats muh best friend. Okay, Here's chapter 4!

"Just Know that I Love You"

*Austin's POV*

It was one week after Ally had tried to overdose herself and honestly, it was a tuff one. I stayed with Ally (with her dads permission of course) all weekend.

I cant believe someone would be so cruel to send Ally those kind of messages. How fucked up do you have to be to end up like that?

Well anyway, it's 1:47am, so Ally's soundly asleep. Me? Not so much.

I looked over at Ally. She looked so peaceful.

I got up out of bed and started making my way down stairs for a glass of water when I heard the stairs creek. I turned around and stood there was Ally.

"Hey" I said in a whisper, trying not to make so much noise. I didnt want to wake her dad up.

"Hey" I walked closer to her and pulled her in for a gentle hug. "What are you doing up?"

"Same as you, I guess. Just came down for some water." you could hear the tiredness in her voice. I gave her a soft smile. "I'll bring it up to you"

"You dont have to do that, you know." yes I do. I thought inside my head. I'd do anything for her. "I know, but, I want to. Really, go back to bed. I'll bring you a drink up" she hugged me and then thanked me and made her way upstairs.

I poured the water from the tap into a glass and brought it up for her. I opened her bedroom door but she wasnt there. I heard someone sigh, it came from the bathroom. I set the glass down on her beside table and opened the bathroom door quietly.

She was standing there... without a shirt.

She was looking over all the cuts and bruises she had. Scrapes on her ribs, bruises on her stomach, cuts on her wrists. She must have saw me through the clear glass mirror because she turned around and gasped.

"Austin, what are you doing?" her voice was shaking slightly. I didnt reply. Instead, I just walked closer to her. She back up, only a little. She knew I wasnt going to hurt her.

I gently brushed my finger tips over her bruised stomach and ribs. She shivered at the touch. I then softly grabbed her wrist, being careful not to hurt her. I brought her hand up to my lips and kissed her wrist softly. She just stared at me.

"Dont do it again, please." I whispered in her ear. It sounded like I was begging. I started to feel tears well up in my eyes. I fought them. I will not let them fall, I have to be strong for Ally right now.

I looked at her uncovered stomach again, and then back in to her eyes. She knew what I was going to ask her.

"Who did this?" I gritted through my teeth, but saying it in a soft, yet serious tone. I was angry now. Beyond angry. I didnt show it though. I didnt want to frighten Ally.

She looked down.

"Ally? Please." I leaned down so that my forehead was resting on hers. "I dont know" was all she said.

"Who's been texting you"? ... "I dont know.."

"Is it the same person who's texting you been hurting you?" "Yes." Okay. I was a step closer to finding out who this dick was. Right?

"Where, when and how did he do this?" I was gazing in to her eyes. Letting her know that I was going to protect her, no matter what. "After our date. He pulled me in to an alley way. Him and his friends... they just.." "They just what?" She was trying not to let tears escape her eyes at this point.

"They pushed me and shoved me. They kicked me, hit me. Told me I was useless. Worthless."

Okay now i'm pissed. More pissed than I've ever been in my life. These guys were going to get it. I'll kill them.

"Austin dont." what?

"Just leave them. Please. I dont want you to get in to any trouble."

Oh. I must have been thinking out loud. shit.

I just hugged her. I didnt say anything, because I really cant promise her that i'll stay away from them. They hurt her.

And I wasnt going to stand back and let them get away with it.
