Austin's POV
The next day I was sitting in the courthouse waiting for the trial to start. Finally the judge arrived and proceedings started. Lester walked out and sat at the table opposite to Detective Perry. I tuned out a lot of it because it had nothing to do with what I wanted to know then Detective Perry played the recording of Anna. After it had played all the way through he turned to look at the jury.
"This man stole a girl's innocence. At this moment she is getting surgery because he damaged her so badly. It makes it all the worse that he is her grandfather." He said and went back to his desk. The judge turned to look at Lester.
"Well what do you have to say for yourself?" He asked.
"Her parents shouldn't have had her. Did you know my daughter had her when she was seventeen? If I could do it over I would only change one thing. I would have made it last longer, she screamed so good and felt so nice." He and before anyone could move I was on top of him. I hit him repeatedly and felt people pulling at me. They finally got me off of him.
"That's my daughter you son of a bitch. She's just a child! So Ally and I had her when we were young, so what! You need to get the hell over it, she was your family! How could you do that to your family!?" I went to my knees and buried my face in my hands.
"Order! Order in the court!" The judge yelled. Everything calmed down and the cops made me sit back down. The judge looked at me. "Mr. Moon, another outburst like that and I'll have to charge you with contempt of court."
"Jury, time for your deliberation." He said and the jury left the room. They were back in ten minutes. The judge watched them file in. "Jury have you reached a verdict."
"We have Your Honor."
"Well then. For the charge of kidnapping what is your verdict?"
"Guilty."
"For the charge of child rape, what is your verdict?"
"Guilty."
"For the charge of incest, what is your verdict?"
"Guilty."
"For the charge of child endangerment, what is your verdict?"
"Guilty."
"I sentence you to life with no chance of parole." The judge said and I smiled. I stood up and walked out of the courtroom. I had to get back to my family.
Ally's POV
I sat in Anna's room and waited for her to wake up. I heard the door open and looked up. Austin came in and sat next to me.
"How'd it go?" I asked.
"He got life without parole." He said.
"Good, I don't want him in our lives ever again." I said. Austin took my hands and turned me to look at him.
"Ally, do you really think we still need those therapy sessions? I think we've worked out our problems pretty well." He said.
"I know, I thought it would help to go to counseling but we worked it out ourselves. We don't need to go back." I said and he smiled.
"I'm glad you think so." He said and I looked at him in question. He went down on his knee in front of me. He pulled out a ring box.
"Allyson Marie Dawson, we've been through everything together. The birth of our children, the divorce and the reconciliation. I never stopped loving you and I never will. I will never make the mistake of leaving you again. I love you and our children so will you do me the extreme honor of becoming my wife again?" He asked. I smiled down at him.
"Yes." I said and he slipped the ring on my finger. I looked down at it and laughed. "This is the same ring you gave me the first time."
"Well I figured we came full circle so why not?" He asked and I smiled and kissed him. He stood and pulled me to my feet. He then kissed me again and this kiss lasted longer.
"Mommy, Daddy?" A little voice said and we both turned to look at Anna. I smiled at her.
"Hey baby, it's good to see you awake again." I said and she smiled lightly.
"When can I go home? I miss Adalyn and Sarah." She said and I looked at Austin.
"We'll have to ask your doctor sweetheart." He said and as if on cue she walked in. Anna turned to look at her.
"When can I go home?" She asked and the doctor smiled at her.
"You can go home tomorrow if you work really hard tonight to get better." She said and we looked at her.
"Tomorrow? When will she be ready to travel? We're staying in California after she gets out." Austin said.
"She'll be ready to travel in about a week." The doctor said and we nodded.
"Thank you for taking care of her." I said and the doctor smiled.
"It's sort of my job." She said and left.
"Yay. I can't wait to see everyone." She said.
"Hunny, it'll be a week before we can see everyone because you have to get better first." I said.
"Okay mommy, I'll work real hard to get better." She said and Austin and I laughed.
"You be sure to do that Princess." Austin said.
I smiled at both of them. Maybe the road ahead wouldn't be hard if we could fill it with laughs and love, even when it got tough.
