Previously on "Getting the Girl"…

"Ally, this is inexcusable, unacceptable!" Coach Sarah started to yell when Ally only stared at the picture in shock, not explaining herself. She couldn't.

"Coach Sarah, she was drugged and assaulted! It wasn't her fault!" Austin was quick to make his way over to her to defend Ally against the accusing Coach.

Hearing a room full of gasps, Ally turned to find the entire cheer squad standing at the entrance of the gym.

"Oh, would you look at that, Miss 'Captain Perfect' is a slut."

/

The entire gym was quiet after the sentence was spoken aloud from none other than Brooke Stevens. It took everyone a minute for everyone to process what was said over, then mummers began to feel the room.

"Brooke, the only slut in the room is you," Leo fired back after the shock left his body. This caused the entire cheer squad to start arguing. The ones on Ally's side and the ones on Brooke's.

Ally felt her breath catch in her throat as she looked around. Everyone was a blur as she felt tears feel the brim of her eyes once again has they had done several times over the past two days. She looked at Austin as he stared at her in worry. Walking quickly to her, he firmly, yet gently grabbed her arm.

"Not here you don't. Come on," he whispered, pulling her as quickly as he could with her crutching, along with him across the gym. Everyone was so absorbed in their little civil war that they didn't notice the duo slipping out the back of the gym.

Ally took a huge gasp of the fresh air as soon as the stepped out of the gym. Austin stayed still, supporting her with his hand on her arm firmly. In front of them was the parking lot of the school where the students parked. Feeling for his truck keys, Austin gently pulled Ally towards the parking lot where his truck sat.

"Austin, wha-what are we doing," Ally questioned, gaining her composure while wiping her face free from the tears that managed to escape. "We are getting you out of here," Austin informed her, and Ally's eyes widened as she straighten her posture and loosened Austin grip on her arm. "What do you mean we are 'getting out of here'," Ally quoted him, starting at him in bewilderment.

"Ally, you are not in any sort of mental state to face the things people are gonna say to or about you today. Why don't we just go out and have a day to ourselves?"

"But Austin, what about my dad and school?"

"Als, you dad will understand. Plus, you never miss, just come with me," Austin pushed for her to agree, but noticed the look of doubt on her face. He frowned and sighed, walking over to her placing his hands on her shoulders. "Look, if you really don't want to do this, then we will go to first period and I'll be there to face the day with you. But Ally, I really don't think you can handle today, I don't mean that in any bad way, I'm just worried about you," Austin spoke sincerely.

Ally stared up into the eyes of the guy made tears fall from hers no more than a week ago, yet here he was being the person who kept her from falling apart. The way they used to be. No peer pressure to be someone they aren't. No friends to watch their every move. No one to be jealous of. No problems. Like they had started over.

"Yes."

Austin felt his smile widened and he reached down to intertwine their fingers. "Well come on then gorgeous."

/

Ally felt free.

All the stress she had endured over the course of the past two days, the past week, had all faded in this moment.

The wind whipped harshly through the truck's rolled down windows, forcing her hair to fly in all different directions. Her bare feet were propped up on dash as she was leaned back in seat, her eyes closed taking in the sounds of the ruthless wind and the blasting radio that played the current common pop songs.

Austin hand had somehow found a place on her bare thigh, not to low but not high while he glided his thumb back and forth soothingly. Before ditching school, Ally had managed to grab some denim, ripped shorts from her car so she could enjoy the last bit of the moderately warm, Miami summer weather that they had left. Yet, she styled one of Austin's tees that she tied up with a ponytail. When he handed it to her, she didn't miss the fact that it had his last name and football number on it. Not that she was complaining about any of the prior, she quite enjoyed it actually.

Austin looked over at Ally's relaxed figure and smiled. He had finally gotten her to settle down after everything that had happened, and he was genuinely happy she was happy.

"What do you say gorgeous, how about an ice-cream cone and a walk on the beach," Austin questioned, and Ally looked at him, smiling. "Sounds like a plan," she agreed, and with that, Austin pulled into a parking spot next to the beach where the ice-cream shops and boardwalks were.

Austin cut off the ignition and hopped out of the truck along with Ally following him.

As they grabbed their ice cream cones, they started making their way to one of the abandon piers. They were both very thankful that the beach wasn't very crowded due to people working and teenagers in school. Also, they couldn't rule out the fact that it was just the starting of September, but with it being Miami, Florida, the weather definitely wasn't below the 70's.

Reaching the end of the pier, they sat on the edge, swinging their legs back and forth, eating their ice cream in a comfortable silence. As they finished, Austin watched as Ally propped her hands on the pier beside her, looking down into the water below her.

"Ally."

Ally turned to Austin, taking in the serious tension around them as Austin's expression was firm. "Yeah," Ally furrowed her brows in question.

"I'm really sorry about what happened at the beach the other day. I really regret the way I acted, and I hated that I didn't listen to you. What I said to you was unreasonable and unforgivable. Hell, I didn't even come to the hospital when you were hurt," Austin apologized but muttered in anger as he ran his hand through his hair at remembering his actions. Ally frowned.

As much as she wished she could forget what happened between them at the beach last week, she couldn't. She knew that they had to talk about it at some point, but she also realized that she valued her friendship and confusing relationship with Austin too much to hold a grudge over what happened.

"Aus," Ally whispered, placing a hand over his free hand on the pier. "I don't want to hold anything against each other because of that. I'm not gonna say what you did was okay, but I said some things that I regret too. I missed this. I missed us, whatever we are or were. I missed you. I just want to forget about it. We learned from it, but I don't want to dread on it," Ally whispered, looking down at the boardwalk, nervous that her confessions weren't something he would return.

Placing a finger underneath her chin, Austin tilted her head up to lock eyes with hers. "Ally Dawson." Austin smiled when he watched her eyebrows raise, and her bottom lip forms her natural pout of hers that he loved so much. She looked so curious, yet so adorable. Leaning towards her, he stopped right before his lips touched hers.

Ally let her eyes flicker to his lips and then back to meet his eyes. "Can I kiss you?" Ally felt his breath tickle her lips as he whispered his question. Ally let her lips flick just slightly as she wanted to smile, but kept her reaction nonchalant, nodding.

Austin smirked, and finally let his lips capture hers in a firm, tender kiss. Austin smiled as he felt her sigh in satisfaction. He let his other hand come up to grip her other cheek as he deepened the kiss.

Soon, Ally lost track of how long their lips stayed connect, but soon she broke the kiss for air. He leaned his forehead against her, kissing the tip of her nose. "God, I missed you," Austin growled roughly, breathing heavily, and Ally felt plenty of emotions surge through her body.

Ally smiled, leaning in to kiss him lightly once more in order to express her emotional state.

But soon, realization her as she frowned and pulled away. Austin instantly became worried, "Ally, what's wrong?"

Ally let out a scoff, but he knew it wasn't directed towards him. "How? How could you still want to protect me, kiss me, want me after the position I put myself in the other night. Austin, I-I don't know what I did. I could have done something that I don't remember. What if it wasn't sexual assault? What if it was consensual," Ally throughout in a heap of worry.

Austin felt shock take over as he tried to comprehend why she would think any of that for a spilt second. "Ally." Reaching over to grip her face in his hands once again, he forced her to look and listen. "What happened is not in any way, shape or form your fault. It was not consensual if anything even happened. You would not have called me if it was. This is a serious situation, and I know you don't remember what happened and I know that something could have." He was stern but yet his voice wavered at the realization that something could have actually happened, and he watched as the tears fell from her eyes. Letting his thumbs reach over, he gently wiped them away.

"But guess what? You are mine, Ally Dawson. It doesn't matter about labels, our peers, or our friends. It doesn't matter if something happened, it wasn't your fault. You're mine, and I'm not letting you go. Do you understand that?"

Ally felt her eyes widened in shock, and while she was still upset about the current stressors she was having to face, she couldn't begin to explain how weak her knees felt and she wasn't even standing up. Ally took in the possessive side of Austin that she had yet to see, until now, and while a majority of girls wouldn't find it attractive to be talked about like an 'object' almost, she didn't see it like that.

She saw the confidence roll of him, claiming that he wanted her. That no one would take her from him, and he would be prepared to confidently defend that. He wasn't playing games with her, he wanted her and everything that came with her. He was serious about her, about them.

The past month, they had been running around in circles. They kept trying to figure out what they were, and while they didn't necessarily need a label to all of their peers, friends, or the rest of society, they need a label amongst themselves. Austin was hers and she was his. It didn't matter about what other people thought, they were focused on each other and their status they needed for themselves.

Ally smiled. "I'm yours Austin Moon, but guess what?" He raised his eyebrows. "You are mine as well."

He smirked and nodded. "Whatever you want, gorgeous." And with that, he sealed her lips with his.

Two weeks had flown by before Ally knew it.

Two weeks, but yet so much and so little had happened.

She still had no memory of that night that took place nearly three weeks ago, and she was beginning to grow frustrated. Her fear wasn't on who did it, more like did it get that far? She was still 'intact' as some people would say, and her plan was to not do anything with anyone unless it felt right. It sounded cliché in her mind, but she was waiting for the right time and the right person.

If she still had that privilege…

The principal eventually found out about the situation from her cheer coach and a whole investigation was thrown at her. Pretty much the entire school was at the party that night, but no one recalled see Ally being forced upon.

She didn't want the investigation, but after talks with her father, friends, and Austin, they encouraged her to agree.

Austin and she had been dating for the past two weeks ever since that day at the pier. While they didn't announce their relationship, people gathered information either from their display of affection in public, their social media's, or the talk that had formed around the school.

Austin and she didn't really care for telling everyone, but they weren't shy with their relationship. In the beginning they didn't display any affection, but once Austin had posted her upon his snap chat last Saturday, her throwing up a peace sign while kissing at the camera from the passenger side of his truck along with the caption 'I sure did miss my gorgeous girl', had everyone talking in an instant. She wasn't angry at him outing their relationship to the entire school, she was just angry with the picture, which consisted of her in no makeup and a messy ponytail. In the end, it just consisted of Austin telling her to get over it, that he loved the picture and that he wasn't deleting it. That ended with Ally shooting a ponytail at him from the passenger side right in the ear.

Ally was currently packing up her gym bag, a feeling of nervousness settling in her stomach at having to go see Austin. It wasn't that she didn't want to see him, it was what she had to tell him that was so nerve racking.

Walking, yes walking because she had finally been put into a knee wrap instead of on crutches, to the field, she saw Austin laughing along with Dez and Shane outside of the weight room. Upon arriving, Austin smiled and reached out to pull her into a hug, kissing her forehead. "Hey gorgeous."

"Ugh, you two make me sick," Shane joked, and Austin chuckled. "Oh well, sucks for you," Austin fired back playfully and bided a goodbye to his team mates, walking Ally over to her car. Noticing her fidgeting with the end of her tee, Austin stopped causing her to as well.

"Als, what's wrong?" Austin looked down at her and he grew nervous as a look of worry over took her face. "I have something to tell you," Ally admitted, and Austin nodded, motioning for her to continue.

"I couldn't handle not knowing ho-how far that night went, so-so I kind of made an appointment with the do-doctor to find out results about…that," Ally sputtered lightly, and Ally watched as Austin looked around putting two and two together.

"Oh. You are," Austin questioned, shocked upon hearing the news. "Ye-yeah. I need to know, it is driving me crazy. I can't sleep, so I think I should go," Ally self-confessed and Austin nodded slowly, processing her decision.

"Okay, um, when is it," Austin quizzed, and Ally looked down. "Today, in like an hour."

Austin took in a quick breath at this. He wasn't angry or annoyed with her decision, it was her body, and he was just worried.

"Are you angry," Ally questioned softly. Upon hearing her soft, worried question, Austin snapped out of his daze. "No. No, no gorgeous." He brought her into a hug, feeling her relax. "I'm not angry, I'm just worried about the outcome," he admitted, and while he knew it would lead her to unnecessary thoughts, he wouldn't lie to her. He would simply ease her doubts as best he could.

Pulling away from his slightly so she could look up at his face, she asked the question that had been swarming in her head since she thought of all of this.

"Wou-would you leave? You-you know, if I wasn't-," he quickly cut off her question with a soft kiss of reassurance. "No, don't even let that cross your mind for a second," Austin soft informed, and Ally nodded quietly.

Austin wasn't use to see Ally so vulnerable as much as he had seen in the past two weeks. To everyone else, she was the same confident, lovely, cheerful person she had always been, but to him and very few others, they saw the same no others had seen.

"Do you want me to go with you," Austin asked, reaching up to move a fallen hair from her face. "In all honesty, it would probably make me feel better," Ally admitted softly. Austin smiled lightly as she hid her face behind her hair as she looked to her feet.

He kissed her head and tilted her head up to steal a kiss from her lips. "You got it, sweetheart."

/

Ally sat nervously on the doctor's bed like thingy that really hurt her bum. She looked around the room, moving around on the bed as she waited for the doctor to come back. "Als, calm down gorgeous," Austin reached over to place a comforting hand on her knee.

"Sorry, sorry. I'm just worried," she spoke, and Austin sent her a comforting smile. "I know, but I'm gonna be right out here. You'll go back for only a few minutes, and they will give you the results as soon as they are done," Austin informed, and while Ally knew how it worked, she was curious as to why he knew.

"How in the world do you know how this process works," Ally interrogated, and Austin shrugged.

"Almost got a girl pregnant once, no big deal." Austin shrugged, and Ally reached over to slap his shoulder.

"Ow shit, Ally, I'm kidding," Austin laughed, and Ally took in a breath finally realizing that he was obviously joking. "Sorry." Ally leaned her head down and placed them in her hands. Austin sighed, feeling bad. Standing up, he stood in front of her.

"I'm sorry gorgeous."

Ally shook her head, placing her forehead on his chest. "No, it's fine. You were just messing with me, I took it too seriously."

"You didn't, you are just nervous."

"Hello."

The door opened and the doctor stepped in. "Ally Dawson," she questioned, looking down at the clip board that was in her hand. She shook her head, and the doctor pointed to the door that leads to a private room.

"Ready?"

"As I'll ever be."

And with that, she let Austin kiss her head and she walked in.

/

Austin patiently waited. It had been about fifteen minutes since Ally had gone back and he was growing antsy. The entire time he had been trying to keep his worry to a minimum for Ally, but he couldn't help but be worried for her.

What if it wasn't the news she had hoped for? What if she was pregnant? What if she had caught a disease? There were so many things running threw his mind, and as the door opened, he jumped from his seat onto his feet.

"So?"

Her face still held worry, and he felt his heart drop. "I told her to wait and tell me the results with you," Ally admitted, and Austin let out a breath and nodded. Sitting back down, he motioned for her to sit in his lap as they awaited the doctor. She appeared not too long later.

"So Ally, you visited today for results of any signs of any forced intercourse and the risks that followed with it, and I am happy to tell you that there is no sign of rape or sexual assault."

Ally felt relief surge through her body as she dropped her head onto Austin's shoulder, letting tears of relief fall onto his neck. With that, the doctor left the room to give the teenagers some privacy.

Austin tightened his grip on her as he then felt relief. She was okay. She was physically okay.

/

I hope you all enjoyed that chapter.

As you read this, I want you all to know how important sexual assault and rape is. Ally is not being a 'wimp' or a 'diva' as some would call it. When put into a situation like that, extreme measures need to be taken. I hope you all understand that.

Anyways, until next time.

Have a great Easter and God Bless!
