NOT EDITED!

AUSTIN'S POV-

I looked down at Ally, she was finally asleep. She had been crying for hours, just sobbing. I tried everything to calm her down. She finally fell asleep after lying on the couch for a little bit. I replayed every moment of that day so far in my head, thanking god that Ally was ok.

I remember Ally's call, her sobs through the phone as I scrambled to my car. I remember speeding to get to her side. When I got there I saw two cars, both very mangled. I noticed a body, sprawled out on the hood of one. The scene in front of me made my stomach churn and caused chills to run up my spine. I hopped out of my car, searching for Ally. I finally found her on the sidewalk, hunched over. I ran to her, heart stopping as I reached for her. I needed to feel her in my arms, I needed to know that she was ok.

"Als?" I asked when she was finally in my arms. "Please tell me that you are ok." She nodded.

"I'm...ok" She sobbed.

A police officer approached us, pulling a pad of paper and pen. "Hello miss, you are the one who witnessed this correct?"

Ally pulled away from me, but I kept my arm around her and she held onto my hand for dear life. She simply nodded and he continued.

"Do you think you could explain to me what you saw?" He asked, trying to be as polite as possible.

She nodded and I braced myself for the full story. "I was on a run, and was waiting to cross the street. The blue car was speeding to catch the light, and the black one wasn't paying attention and turned left. I looked away and braced myself. The next thing I heard was a loud crash and horns blowing. I looked up and saw broken glass, people getting out of their cars to help." She paused and bit back a sob. "I heard a scream, a scream that just shoots through you and causes goosebumps. I walked over to the car slowly and tried to find the source of the cry. I went up to the car and saw the man he was wincing in pain. I tried to find the source but couldn't so I tried to calm him down."

The officer cut in, "Sorry, which car was he driving?"

"The black one." He nodded, and she continued. "He stopped responding, there was a lot of blood. The woman next to him looked at me, terrified, weak, and in so much pain. I noticed her head was bleeding and then I saw it, the glass wedged in her stomach. She looked down at it and began to panic, I ran around to her side and tried to calm her down. That's when the firefighters came and made me go to the sidewalk."

He wrote down a few more words as I pulled Ally into a tight embrace, trying to take the pain away. "Thank you ma'am, and you're not hurt correct?" She shook her head and he turned to leave but Ally stopped him.

"She was pregnant wasn't she?" She shuddered at the sentence.

He simply nodded sadly "Yes"

"And they didn't make it did they?"

"I'm not aloud to say, I'm sorry. Thank you again. Goodbye" He nodded at Austin and walked away.

I could tell by the look on his face they didn't. Ally knew too and she began to cry again. I took her back into my arms and she cried against my already tear stained shirt. "Are you ok? You weren't involved right?"

She shook her head against my chest. "No, I was just um..waiting to uh..cross. It was so scary, the sound, the screams. They just keep replaying in my head."

"Shh, try to think of something else ok?" She nodded. "Come on, lets get you home."

I scooped her up and drove her home. We had been in the basement since, he dad was away on business but her mom came down a few times to check up on food but Ally denied each time. She was shaking with fear when I found her on the sidewalk and the drive home she was holding on for dear was terrified, I saw it in her eyes. Even though she didn't know the couple she felt for their loss and she was shell shocked. She hadn't spoken since we left the accident and I was worried that the dreams would come back. That was last thing we needed was to take five steps back after taking two forward.

My eyes started to become heavy but I was fighting sleep. I didn't want to fall asleep and have Ally wake up or have a nightmare. It was my job to protect her, nothing was going to happen to her as long as I had something to do with it. I stayed awake for another hour but my body begged for sleep. I'm sure if I just rest my eyes it wouldn't be that bad, right?

ALLY'S POV-

My eyes fluttered open, I looked around and found Austin laying next to me. He looked worried, not peaceful as usual. He had bags under his eyes and I knew that he was probably fighting sleep all night. I knew he was worried about me, worried I would get the dreams again. But, I came to far to go back to that. I was stronger now, I fought off my demons and they weren't coming back, as long as I had Austin.

I closed my eyes and snuggled closer into Austin's chest. I don't know why it affected me so much, I didn't know these people. I've never met them in my life, but the fact that this couple lost their unborn child? That just got to me I guess. I felt better now, I was still a little upset but it was nothing to cry over. I had school in the morning and even better lacrosse tryouts. I usually would be super nervous but right now I was only a little nervous. I haven't played in a year and would probably have to knock off some of the rust. After that though I would be back to the well oiled machine, pumping out goals, wins, and championships.

I felt sleep overtake me and the last thing I thought of was how lucky I was. I had a good life, and the love of my life.

I felt the warmth next to me shift and let out a groan. He pressed back against me and I felt something stab my leg. A smile formed on my lips.

"Geez Austin, control yourself." I laughed, eyes still closed.

"Ally, It's the morning" He whined and I imagined his cheeks heating up.

"Yeah, sure." I opened my eyes and his met mine instantly. "I wish I didn't have school today."

"Yeah, but you have tryouts. So, you have to go. Plus you'll be able to see all your friends, that's something I miss about school."

I felt bad, Austin didn't really have any friends here. Scott and Tony would come down on weekends and Austin made a few at his new job but other than that he didn't really hang out with anyone but her.

"I'm sorry, that you don't have any friends here. I'm sure you wish you could go back to New York." I looked down, avoiding his gaze.

"Actually I wouldn't rather be anywhere else than here with you, but I do have to talk to you about something." He trailed off and I began to worry. "But, I was trying to wait till after tryouts so it doesn't mess you up or anything."

"Well, now you have to tell me because I'm going to worry more not knowing."

He nodded, "I know, and it's not anything bad. But, your mom's taking me to have a meeting today with my lawyer." I tensed up and his grip tighten. "He said we needed to talk about my living arrangements because right now I'm still supposed to be with my Aunt and if she can't care for me then I'm going to be given to the next person on the will." His voice softened along with his eyes.

"Which is?" I asked, afraid of the answer since most of his family lived in Indiana.

"My long lost grandfather in Antarctica.."

I looked up to see him smirking, and smacked his arm. "Stop it! I'm being serious. Who?"

He gave me a small smile. "My godparents." I gave him a confused look. "Scott's parents" I relaxed a little.

"Oh, well that's not too bad. I mean obviously I'm gonna miss you more than anything but you would be going home. You would be around your friends, you'd be happier." I said, sitting up since I would have to get ready for school soon.

He shook his head. "Als, nothing would make me happier than to stay here with you, you know that."

"I know, but you don't do anything here. You don't go out except for on the weekends with me or Scott and Tony when they come down. I feel bad, and lacrosse is starting now so I won't be home as much. I want you to be happy, and you being back home going to school with all of your friends will make you happy. Sure, I won't be able to see you as much, but we'll still see each other on the weekends. Right?" He nodded "And we only have like four months left till graduation. We can do this, I know we can. As long as we are together, we can do anything."

A smile crept across his face, "I love you so much, you know that right?"

I smiled back, "Yeah, but it's nice to hear it every once in a while."

He let out a laugh. "Come here"

He pressed his lips to mine and I felt something vibrate below us. I pulled away and heard the alarm sound and realized it was my school alarm. I smiled apologetically, and Austin just smirked.

"Go!" He yelled. "And knock em dead at tryouts today!"

"Thanks babe, love you!" I kissed him quickly before hopping off the couch.

"Love you too, always!"

"And FOREVER!" I yelled as I skipped up the stairs. Today was going to be a great day.
