A/N: I'm so sorry for the wait guys! I had a friend come down for a week and had no time at all to break away. But I did spend the week thinking about how to continue the story. It will be rather short because it basically just wraps up her birthday. There will be a chapter or two after this one and then my first fan fiction will be complete! I am so glad you guys are enjoying it! Thanks for reading and don't forget to review!

Ally's POV

Austin hated when guys disrespected girls. I've never even heard him call a girl hot because he thinks it's meaningless and stupid. He was a total gentlemen when it came to that stuff. So when Tom did the unspeakable, Austin yanked me out of the Tattoo Parlor faster than my mind could register. Once we got outside, realization had hit me on what just happened. I stop walked, causing Austin to look back at me. The tears started to flow out of my face for the 3rd time that night. I close my eyes tightly and curl my lips inside my mouth. Austin had dropped my hand and pulled me into his muscular embrace. He stroked my hair softly and whispered reassuring words into my ear.

He pulls me out of the hug and looks me dead in the face. I open my eyes and look at his worried expression. He grabbed my shoulders and said, "Ally what did he do to you?"

I gasp for air and try to speak. My breath gets hitched as my mind was trying to blurt it out. Austin's eyes searched through me, looking for an answer. I finally spit out the hurting words.

"He grabbed my ass, just l-like Da-Dallas did before he-," I cry out but before I could finish, Austin pulled me into his chest once more. He knew all about what Dallas had done to me just a year ago. I try not to think about it much but it comes back haunting me every now and then. I wrap my arms around Austin as I sob into his sweatshirt. My tears sank into the fabric as Austin pulled me into a tighter hug.

"Ally, I'm so sorry. I ruined your birthday. You must hate me now." I hear Austin mumble into my hair.

I pull out of his arms and make him look at me. Austin's face had the saddest expression and it made my gut tighten.

"Austin, this isn't your fault. The tattoo is the sweetest thing anyone has done for me. I could never hate you," I whisper.

A soft smile forms on his face and a matching one forms on mine. He grabs my hand and leads me to his truck. As we drove, we sat in comfortable silence; listening to the radio hum some new songs. Austin glances at me every once in awhile and smiles as I try hard not to blush. Austin and I are great friends but I can't help but have feelings for him. He's such a sweetheart and he's just an amazing guy. For years, everyone we know has been trying to get us together. I just wish that one day all the convincing will work.

Austin's POV

It took every bone in my body not to punch Tom straight in the gut after making Ally cry. That little bastard. But I knew that Ally was hurt and hurting Tom wouldn't make anything better. We were heading to my favorite part about her birthday present. I pull my truck into a patch of grass and park. Ally looks through the window and glances around curiously.

"Where are we?" she asks.

"You'll see," I say, smirking.

Ally rolls her eyes and smiles slightly. I go to open her door and lead her outside. I run to the back trunk as Ally stares at me confused. I grab a blanket and and the picnic basket. Ally looks down at my hands and smiles brightly.

"A picnic? How sweet," she exclaims, beaming.

"It gets better, trust me." I say as I motion her to follow. She jogs up to my side as we start to climb the stairs. We end up on a roof with the most amazing view in Miami. Ally gaps, taking it the beauty of it all. I can't help but laugh at her. She's so adorable.

"Austin this is amazing!" she screams while twirling around like a little girl.

I chuckle to myself as I set up the blanket and picnic in the center of the flat rooftop. Ally is running from corner to corner, peering over the edge. I sit down and just watch her for a minute. She's absolutely amazing sometimes. Scratch that, all the time. The way her petite body gets so excited and happy with the littlest things. It makes my heart swell thinking about it all. All Ally and I have been through these past few years. Just then, Ally runs over and plops herself rather close to me.

"So what are we eating?" she exclaims, clearly out of breath.

I smile and open up the basket that fills the air with an aroma of pickles and sandwiches. Ally gaps at the food and smiles huge. I set up two plates with sandwiches, pickles, and chocolate-covered strawberries. Ally starts digging in right away and I follow along. She's smiling until she looks at the bottom of the basket.

"Wine? Austin you know I don't drink." she whispers, looking away shyly.

"C'mon Als, it's your birthday! I promise I won't get you drunk off your ass." I said, hoping she takes the offer because I had brought nothing else to drink.

She finally glances at me and laughs loudly. "Alright Moon, you better keep that promise unless you want my dad to puree you in our new blender!"

My eyes grew wide at her rather bold statement. She notices my expression and falls on her back, laughing to her extreme content. I loosen and smile down at her. Ally is wiping imaginary tears from her eyes as she starts to lean back up.

"Well, crack open the wine strong boy," she whispers, touching my shoulder sexily.

My breath is hitched at her flirty comment and I try hard to regain my focus as I nervously pour the wine into two glasses. I hand one to her and our hands brush slightly. Although we've been holding hands for most of the night, the contact puts lighting through my body. She blushes slightly as she sips on her wine, focusing on the sky. My eyes got the best of me again because I was hopelessly staring at her.

"Hey Austin?" she asks softly.

"What's up Als?" I say, not breaking my gaze on her.

"Why did you do this all for me?" she asks shyly, glancing in my direction.

The answer took no time at all. She was the greatest girl besides my mom that I've ever met. She puts up with me when I'm crabby, whiney, or upset. She never judges me or hurts my feelings on purpose. She's been there for me again and again after the stupid girlfriends I wish I never even attempted. She was amazingly beautiful and wonderful.

"Because you're you. There is no reason why I wouldn't do this for you" I say, looking straight into her eyes and smile slightly.

She blushes and looks down again. I figured this was a good time to give her one last present. I reach into the picnic basket for a box under the napkins. Ally is looking at me with curiosity while I pull out the slim velvet box.

"What's that?" she exclaims cutely.

"One last present for the best girl on the world" I say standing up and walking behind her. I open up the box and pull out a gold necklace. I undo the chain and string it around her neck. I clasp it and return to my place on the blanket.

Ally looks down at her neck and grasps the chain gently to observe. She smiles hugely and looks up at me with kind eyes.

"Beautiful?" she asks repeating the cursive word on the gold charm hanging on the chain.

"It describes you, Ms. Dawson," I say grinning.

Her grin never fades as she continues to gap in awe. I catch my self staring at her intently once again. To break my gaze, I pick up the last strawberry from the bowl.

"Happy birthday Ally," I say showing her the strawberry right in front of her face.

"Austin, that's the last strawberry. You went through all the trouble tonight for me, you should have it." she exclaims softly.

"You're the birthday girl. For all you know this could be the best strawberry in the world and you won't be able to taste it." I said. [1]

Ally smiles at me and exclaims a quiet, "If you say so" and takes a bite out of the strawberry, her lips barely grazing my fingers. The contact sent hot vibes through my whole body. This girl will be the death of me.

"Well?" I ask, joking around.

She swallows and lets out a soft moan of pleasure. I shiver at the moan, my teenage hormones kicking in.

"You're absolutely right Moon, best strawberry ever." she said, grinning from ear to ear.

We're staring at each other now. Hazel meets brown in an intense gaze. The pools of hazel on her face continue to mesmerize me. I wasn't sure how long the staring went on but I never wanted it to end.

A/N: If this chapter gets five reviews by tomorrow, I'll put up a new chapter right away! Don't worry the next chapter will explode your Auslly feels! Lol! Thanks for reading again!
