Hey, guys! I gotta say...I'm a little disappointed in myself. The last chapter obviously wasn't good enough, since barely anyone reviewed on it. So, to make it up to you guys, I'm gonna throw in some Auslly in this chapter, even though it isn't a part of the plot line that you guys gave me just for you guys!

Also, I've been getting some PM's that are about how I must be from Oklahoma. Well, I used to live there, but I moved to another state just a couple of months ago. Looking back on my old work, I'm surprised that there weren't more guesses sooner. Just to clear all that up! GO RHINOS!

Let's do this!


Ally

"Ally, time for dinner!" I heard my dad call out from downstairs, through my closed door. I slammed my diary shut and clicked the pen I was writing with, struggling to sit up from my bed that I was previously resting on.

I was now six months pregnant, and my dad still had no idea. I wouldn't blame him, considering the poor man has been traveling to non-stop conventions to learn more about how to make more money.

If I were in his shoes, I wouldn't know that my now eighteen-year-old daughter was pregnant with twins.

As I struggled to stand, I made sure that I didn't fall over, since the weight was pulling my body down. To me, it doesn't matter. I have two, beautiful kids growing inside of me, and I truly can't wait to meet my little boy and my little girl in just a short amount of time. I thought this as I placed the latest ultrasound of Alex and Andrew.

Yeah, that's their names, and they couldn't be better. Alex's full name is Alexandria, but I'm just going to call her Alex for short. I'm going to call Andrew "Andy" for short.

Both A names, just like Austin and myself.

Descending down the steps with an unstable gait, my hand caressed my stomach as I gripped tightly on the railing, trying my best to not have the wrong footing, since I was unable to see my own two feet.

The sound of two voices talking snapped me out of my trance. I recognized one to be my dad's...

...and the other to be Trish's, and Dez's, and Austin's.

Oh, God, Austin's here. I don't think that I can handle this right now.

Wait...is that cottage cheese I smell?

Oh, the babies don't like cottage cheese! They like pretty much everything but the foods that I enjoy.

I raced up the staircase as fast as I could, trying not to jump on the steps. I ignored my dad calling my name and asking why I hadn't talked to them in a while, doing my best to choke down the oncoming sickness. I raced into the room, faintly hearing the sound of footsteps pounding behind me.

Raising the toilet lid in my bathroom, I knelt down and opened my mouth, letting all of the contents in my stomach empty.

What surprised me was when a large, warm hand was placed on my back and started to pat it lightly., just like when you burp an infant.

Austin.

I immediately turned away from his touch and looked him dead in the eyes.

God, I missed those eyes. Those warm, comforting, hazel eyes.

"A-ally?" He whispered, almost like he couldn't believe what was right in front of him.

Truth be told, I'm feeling the exact same way right now.

Suddenly, one of the babies kicked, and I gasped, tears leaking their way out of my clouded eyes.

He was here, we were all here. I can see it all now―our future. He would kiss me before fleeing off to work in the early morning, say goodbye to Alex and Andrew on his way out, and we would all hug him goodbye.

Picture perfect.

I felt those warm, masculine arms wrap around my torso and pull me in closer, him leaning over to dig his head in the crook on my neck.

I gasped, now letting myself cry for the first time in a long while.

"Austin," I whispered, my eyes shutting closed and inhaling the familiar scent of his body spray through my red nose. I almost forgot to keep my stomach away from him, but I knew that I couldn't let my guard down, not even for a second. I can't ruin his career.

I dismissed the sound of him crying, thinking that it was just my mind playing tricks on me. He was on that date with Cassidy, and he seemed to happy.

That happiness couldn't have been because of me.

But, for a moment, I forgot about the logic and wrapped my arms around his neck bringing him in closer than he was before. I could feel him shaking with sobs, and I knew that it was somewhat due to me. I've never seen Austin cry, ever.

Austin whispered, muffled, "I missed you." I repeated his words, and I could feel his smile emerging against my sweatshirt.

We both pulled away, let the other stare at our red eyes for a split second, all before smashing our lips together, letting the two words, that missed each other, collide. Our lips smashed against each other, the feeling of desperation unleashing itself from the prison cell.

My hands mimicked his actions and cupped his face in my hands as the kiss grew slow and sensual, like this was our first kiss all over again.

It seemed like it was, due to the massive amount of sparks flying and stomach churning. I was surprised that I never felt sickness. It was almost as if Andy and Alex wanted this to happen, like they could see how much I wanted this, so they gave me a freebee on this one.

Without any sort of warning, I heard a small child whisper, "Daddy," causing me to halt my actions. Seeing as though Austin never reacted any differently, I discovered that the voice was just in my head.

I must be going crazy if I'm starting to hear voices in my head.

Austin and I were soon out of breath, so we pulled away, panting heavily.

Austin's voice cracked as he said, "you have no idea how much I've missed you. I know you probably are happy without me, but I just thought that there might be some sort of feelings left over from when we were together―" I cut him off with a sharp kiss.

"Don't worry," I whispered, soothingly, "I feel the same way." I then searched his eyes for that familiar glint in his eyes, that could light up someone's whole day.

And I found it.

His eyes were then perplexed. "But, if that was the case, then why'd you break up with me?"

Shit.

I can't do it. I can't tell him that I'm carrying his two, unborn children and just a little ways away from greeting them into this world. I can't put a stop to his teenage years and force him to become an adult. He's too sweet―he'll drop everything that's going on his life to support us, and I can't let him do that.

"You should go," I said, turning away from him as I stood up and walked into my room, him following me suit.

I could practically feel his heart sinking, or maybe that was just mine.

I sat on my bed, covering my body with the thick, white blanket I owned to cover up my stomach as I sat down.

There's no way I can let him see the children, no matter how much I want to.

Man, this is so confusing! I want him to find out so we can all be one big, happy family. But, at the same time, I don't want to ruin his career.

Austin knelt down in front of me, taking my hands into his. "Ally," he said, "I'm not leaving until you give me a reason." I tore my hands away from his and my eyes from his gaze. There's no way he's going to see me break down, not like this.

"Get out," I seethed, my jaw tightening and my heart clenching with agony.

Out of the corner of my foggy eyesight, I saw Trish and Dez standing right outside of the threshold, melancholy expressions painted across their faces. I refused to let them see me week, so I raised my voice to be a little bit louder. "Get the hell out of here and leave me alone." It shocked Trish and Dez slightly, since they had never heard me curse before, but Austin barely looked phased as he stood up and pushed his away out of my room, dashed down the steps, and slammed the front door shut as he exited. I winced slightly, knowing that he probably was never going to come back.

Trish took a step towards me, "Ally...we know," she said, cautiously.

They...they know? How could they? I haven't had any contact with them since I found out about the pregnancy.

Oh no...what if Elliot told them? I wouldn't be surprised one bit. In fact, he's changed so much, I half-expect it now.

I wrapped my arms around my stomach lightly, but enough to give them the impression that I was uncomfortable. Looking down shyly at my feet that were covered by the blanket, I murmured, "how did you find out?" I can't believe that they found this out, especially before Austin did. If Austin did know, then he would've said something.

"Austin told us." This caused my head to snap up. "He broke down one day, after weeks of sulking, saying how he missed you so much. I just thought that he was screwing around with some slut and he caught her with another guy. I had no idea that Little Miss Innocent gave up her virginity to her best friend and started screwing him!" She was infuriated, and the tears stung my eyes.

I sniffled lightly, but she continued. "I expected more from you," she told me, "I thought that you had morals and were better than that type of girl. I never thought that I'd see the day where my best friend became a whore―"

"GET THE FUCK OUT OF MY ROOM BEFORE I MAKE YOU," I roared, my fingers balling into fists as I launched onto my feet, rushing over to Trish as I shoved her past my open doorframe. Once she was few yards past the threshold, my voice broke as I demanded, "Don't come back." I glared at the two of them one last time, before slamming the door on their faces.

Once the sound of their footsteps had faded, I wailed out, sobbing loudly as I rampaged throughout my room, breaking absolutely everything that I could find. I threw items onto the floor, flipped over furniture, and chucked valuable items towards the wall, which was now chipped and bore holes.

I thought that my room was going to end up in ruins, but I stopped dead in my tracks once I was about to throw the picture of Austin and me into the room.

I turned it over, and my heart stopped for a second. I gasped, sloppily wiping the tear stains from my eyes as I gazed down at the picture.

Austin had his arm loosely around me, and I could see the love in his eyes and smile as he stared at me. I had been laughing, my cheeks turning to a shade of dark pink as I leant my forehead against his. The photo was in black and white, but I'm glad I decided to filter it that way.

I remember that day perfectly, and it seemed like it was playing whenever I really opened my eyes.

The memory was joyful, but it was too painful to reminisce. It broke my heart so much, that I could feel Alex and Andrew crying out in pain by sensing that I was doing the same.

I carefully slipped the picture out of the silver frame and folded it up, shoving it in to my pocket, knowing that I had a later use for this.

Turning my body around to look upon my destroyed room, I decided that I couldn't stay here long. Dad might not notice a lot, but he'll surely notice a child in the house hold.

This is too risky―staying in the same household. I need to leave.

Dad's shockingly calm voice called up to me, "Ally, you need to eat your dinner before it gets cold." Was he not mentally present for what took place just a few minutes ago? Did he not hear when I was sick and crouching over a toilet? When I screamed at Trish and Dez? When Austin left for…for good?

"Just give me a few minutes," I replied, walking into my closet and fishing for as many bags and suitcases that I could find.

Collecting a grand total of seven bags―three suitcases and four backpacks, I laid them down on my littered bed and began packing as much necessities that I could.

All the money that I saved from working at Sonic Boom and being Austin's songwriter is now going to pay off. I'll finally be able to buy more baby supplies and afford a small apartment, just for the three of us.

It really is the kids and myself against the world.


I entered the small coffee shop, the aroma of caffeinated beverages causing me to envy, since I was unable to drink anything with caffeine in it.

Due to it being my third trimester, I waddled towards the only available table in the entire shop. Unfortunately, it consisted of a wooden chair, which would hurt my back to no end.

I sat down, suppressing the groan of pain that emerged. I squeezed my eyes shut and prayed that I'll just wait for the line to die down, then place my order.

Abruptly, I felt someone tap my shoulder.

"Excuse me, Miss, you're probably not comfortable there. Here, I'm not waiting for anyone, you can take my booth."

My eyes averted from darkness to find their way on a stranger.

A very cute stranger, at that.

I smiled warmly, but I felt guilty. "Oh, you don't have to do that," I had told him. A booth sounded wonderful, but I just can't kick them out.

The man had straight, raven hair that barely fell over his piercing, blue eyes. He had pale skin, just like me. His body wasn't massive, but there was enough muscle for him to be considered attractive.

He shook his head, "I want to." He outstretched his hand towards me, and I lightly shook it, my fingertips barely going to his palm. "I'm Daniel."

"Ally," I greeted.

The silence began to turn into awkwardness, so Daniel helped me stand up and led me towards his booth, which was not too far away from where I had been originally sitting.

"Are you waiting for someone?" He asked me, moving the table to where my stomach had more room. Once I sat down, he took a seat in the wooden chair that was across from me.

I pressed my lips together. The baby's due date was next week, and I now needed someone, more than ever. "I'm not waiting for anyone. It's just me."

Daniel looked confused, so he asked why a girl like me would be all alone, especially this far along. Since I moved to Jacksonville, still located in Florida, I decided that I didn't have to risk running into anybody, so I wore maternity shirts. They're incredibly comfortable, I must say.

We began talking, and I found out that he's lived here all of his life, so he told me what places would be the best to go. We exchanged numbers, and I now made my first friend, after living here for about two weeks.

Daniel shifted in his seat, embarrassed. "If you don't mind me asking, where's the father?" I could tell that he felt antsy asking this question, but I knew that it was because he didn't want to be with someone else's girl.

Too bad I'm not anybody's girl.

I took a deep breath. Here I am, talking with a stranger, and I'm about to open up about Austin to him.

"He doesn't know. I broke up with him right after I found out about the twins. We were dating, and we were in love, but I didn't want to ruin his teenage years and early adulthood with something like this." My hands laced on the top of the table and I twirled my thumbs around each other. I felt a warm, thin hand cover over mine.

I looked up timidly and saw Daniel looking at me with sympathetic eyes.

In that instant, I knew that he could never compare to Austin, but Daniel was the closest I was going to get to someone who gave me their whole world.

And I threw it all away.

This was my second chance―this was my rebound for life.


The conversation lasted for what seemed like hours, and I downed my second bottle of Naked. Daniel had snacked on a blueberry muffin, where as I had a cinnamon roll. He tried to pay for it all, but I insisted on paying for at least half. I laughed so hard, I was convinced that the surrounding people thought that I was in hysterics, considering I had begun crying at one point.

I stood up, wiping the crumbs onto a napkin before throwing that away. I met back up with Daniel, hugged him, saying that I'll keep in touch.

But what startled me was when I felt a warm liquid running down the inside of my stretchy jeans.

I pulled away from the embrace, confusion etched on my face, then I heard a faint 'pop'.

My eyes widened in realization.

I looked at Daniel and urgently said, "my water just broke!"

My water just broke.

Oh my God, my water just broke!


I know…CLIFFY. You guys haven't had one of those in a while, right?

Don't worry, THERE IS A HAPPY ENDING. YOU GUYS REQUESTED ONE, SO I DELIVER.

I wrote this in a couple days, and it would'vebeen one, but my iPad decided that it hasn't screwed with me in a while, so it decided to drain all of its battery life in a matter of twenty minutes.

I guess it's good for only one thing: watching 'X-Men Evolution'. Looks like that one techno dude from one of the beginning episodes is mad at me for not re-watching that episode.
