On Your Doorstep 10

Austin stands up and opens the door. A man and a woman enter the house. "Austin, how's it going?" The woman asks.

"Uh...when did you guys get here?" Austin asks nervously.

"We thought we could surprise you."

"Yeah, you surprised me alright."

"Good." Austin's dad says.

"Who's their?" Ally asks from the living room.

"Austin, you have a girl over? Who is she? Sorry if we bothered you." Austin's mom says.

"Mom, dad, you flew across the country to come visit me. You couldn't have possibly bothered me." Austin says.

"Good, now who's this girl you have over?" Austin's dad asks.

Ally walks around the corner, "I'm Ally."

Mimi, Austin's mom, looks at Austin. "Ally?"

Mike, Austin's dad whispers to Mimi, "Probably not who we think she is. That couldn't even be possible." Mimi nods her head.

"I'm Ally..." Ally starts when Austin interrupts her.

"Ally, you've guys have met."

"I know but it's feels like forever."

"Austin, what's going on?" Mimi asks.

"Mom, dad, this is Ally. Ally...Dawson." Mike and Mimi's mouth dropped to the floor. "Mom? Dad?"

"Ally! What's got you down here?" Mike asks.

"How about we go sit down?" Austin asks. The four go sit down in the living room. Austin and Ally sit on the couch across from Mike and Mimi.

"So what brought you to Los Angeles?" Mimi asks.

"I actually been living here for a few years now." Ally answers.

"Oh, that's good. So what's brings you here? I thought that you...Uh."

"It's fine. I thought it wouldn't be healthy to ignore someone who changed your life in so many ways. And it's not fair to leave Austin hanging. He deserved to know what happened to me and I've explained to him. Now I'm going to spend as much time as I can making up for all the lost time. Especially with this big news." Austin looks at Ally and she just realized what she said. At least she didn't tell them that she was pregnant.

"News? What big news?" Mike asks.

"Uh...that Ally is back." Austin says.

"Yeah, but you knew that. She's obviously been back in your life for some time. How long is that, anyway?" Mimi says.

"Little over a month."

"Wow. And you never left to mention that she's been here? Where do you live?"

"I, uh, live with Austin." Ally says carefully.

"Oh, wow. And no stress or drama." Mimi jokes.

"Mom!" Austin says.

"I'm just kidding. Well, I guess we'll let you guys be. We still have to check into our hotel room." Mimi says.

"Sure. How about you guys come back for dinner tomorrow night?"

"Yeah. That would be great. And we can catch up."

"Sounds great." Ally says.

Mike and Mimi leave the house and Austin and Ally take a deep breath and exhale. "Ally, I had no idea that they were coming down."

"It's fine."

"What are we going to do? We can't tell them what's going on. We don't even know who the baby's father is."

"That's why we're going to take a paternity test."

The next day Austin and Ally get back from taking a Paternity test all they have to do is wait for the mail. "So all we have to do now is wait." Ally says.

"This could take weeks. Maybe even months. It takes a long time for the test to come in. Well, that's what I know from TV shows."

Ally laughs, "Yeah, and you watch too many of them. Paternity tests could takes up to a few hours to a couple days. It's not going to take as much time as you think it will."

"Well, okay. Then we wait. At least we know now that you're two week in. Ally, I want you to know that no matter what the results are I'm gong to be their for you. I want this baby to live a happy life."

Ally looks into Austin's eyes. Her heart flied. She knew deep down what Austin was all about. Ally went for it and grabbed Austin's face and kissed him. "I love you." Ally says.

"I love you, too." They continue kissing. Austin stop and goes on his knees. He puts his head against Ally's belly and she smiles. "Hi little one. We're going to have so much fun together when you're out in the world. I'm going to take you to the park, play in the swings, and eat ice cream. You'll try licking the ice cream and it's going to fall off the cone and we'll both laugh. Mommy will rock you in her arms and sing you to sleep. She's got a beautiful voice you know? I wake up every morning when she does so that I can hear her sing in the shower. All I know is that I'm going to have a life with you and no one will take that away from me." Ally grabs Austin's hands and kisses him.

"Austin... What you just said was the best thing I have ever heard. Five years ago I would never have thought that I would be here." Austin sets Ally on his lap. Ally puts her hands to his face. "I would have never thought I'd be this happy with someone ever again."

"I'm glad that we can do this again."

"Me too. Well, I guess I should start on supper. You're mom and dad will be here in a few hours." Ally kisses Austin's cheek.

"I'll help." While Ally finishes up the supper Austin sets the table. The doorbell rings and Austin answers it. "Come in. Ally is just finishing up."

"Okay."

"Supper is finished." Ally announces. They sit at the table and put the food on their plates.

"So Ally, do you sing too?" Mimi asks.

"Uh, no. I'm a Fashion Designer."

"Oh. So there has been this one thing that's been bothering me. You leave out of no where after Austin proposes and then never talk to him since. And for what I know is that you come around and use Austin for a place to sleep."

"At least she has a job." Mike says.

"Ally is not a bum. She cooked this supper and she works hard. We take turns buying groceries and I want to help her threw everything."

"What trouble are you in, Ally?"

"Oh, nothing." Ally says. The doorbell rings. "I'll get it." Ally walks to the door and opens it up. "Gavin? What are you doing here?"

"I found out what happened. And the baby is mine." Gavin says.

"How did you find out about me?"

"I have my ways."

Suddenly the phone rings. Austin was about to grab it when Ally sees the caller ID is the hospital. Ally answers it. "Hello." Austin could hear mumbling from the other side. He knew that it was probably the paternity results and it was making Austin really nervous. Austin looked up and saw Gavin at the front door. Austin was ready to pounce when Austin notices Ally's face expression.

"Ally?" Austin asks in concern.

"Thank you." Ally hangs up the phone and sets it on the counter lightly. She takes a deep breath.

"What's going on?" Mike and Mimi enter the room.

"Mike and Mimi, maybe I should have told you but I know I have to tell you now. I'm pregnant and I just found who the father is. It was going to be either Austin or my ex Gavin. He's standing at the door."

"Oh, my God. Who's the father?"

Ally looks at Gavin and then back at Austin. "The father is..." Ally stops and takes a deep breath. "Austin." Ally goes to Austin and they share a relieved hug. Austin kisses Ally on the cheek.

"Are you two dating?"

Austin looks at Ally and smiles, "Yeah, we are." Ally looks at Gavin who walks out the door. Ally feels relieved that it's not him.

Later that night when Mike and Mimi congratulate them and left, it was just the two of them left in the house together. The cuddled on the couch hand in hand. "I'm glad it was you."

"I'm glad it was me too." Ally groans in pain. "Are you okay?"

"Yeah. Just cramps. Probably just a yawns. "I think it's time for you to go to sleep." They change and go to bed.

A few hours later in the middle of the night Ally wakes up to a large amount of pain in her stomach. She jumps out of bed to see if it would help but it didn't help. "Austin. Austin!"

Austin opens his eyes to see Ally in pain. He jumps out of bed and helps Ally. "What's wrong?" Ally looks down and noticed that she is bleeding. "Ally, we need to get you to the hospital."
