[A/N This is the last upload for the day. If you haven't noticed, you got a triple update today. I wrote a lot this weekend, so expect a lot of chapters.]

Ryan's POV

''Why did she lie to us!?'' Cassie yelled.

I was going to explode. Everybody was blaming Ali, when all she did was try to protect them.

''Enough!'' I yelled. ''She did this to protect you guys!''

''How would you know?'' Mitch asked confused.

''Because I knew she wasn't dead.'' I finally revealed.

I heard a knock on the door. Great she's here!

Alison's POV

The door opened to reveal a smiling Ryan.

He let me in and took me to the guys.

Their jaws instantly dropped when they saw me, except for Mitch.

''Why? Why did you cause us all this pain?!'' Cassie asked yelling.

''You guys didn't see her did you?'' I asked.

They all shook their heads.

Flashback

I'm so happy I'm ok. But at the same time, I'm depressed. Mitch, the love of my life, dumped me online, stabbed my heart, and the worst thing is I still love him.

I felt excited as the door opened, but when I saw who it was, that changed.

It was the girl, the girl who danced with Mitch and kissed him. Debby.

''Hey Ali, sorry to hear about your injury.'' She evilly grinned and punched my stomach, which was wounded from the knife.

I winced in pain.

''There's more where that came from!'' She laughed evilly.

''What do you want from me?'' I screeched.

''I want to hurt your friends.'' She said with a smirk.

''No!'' I yelled. ''Please don't! I'll do anything…''

''Anything?'' She asked.

I nodded.

''Fake your death.'' She smiled.

My eyes went wide.

''If you don't, your friends' lives will be a living hell.'' She laughed.

She then sashayed out of the room.

Flashback End.

''While all you lazy asses were sleeping, Debby snuck into the ER and threatened to make all your lives a living hell if I don't leave and fake my death. I wanted to protect you, even if it meant hurting you a little along the way.'' I said, and then looked into Mitch's chocolate brown eyes. ''Mitch, I wanted to say this back at the hospital, I love you too.''

He pulled me close and embraced me in a hug, I felt happy, and soon enough, everyone started to hug me.

They all let go.

''We'll leave you two alone.'' Jerome smiled and headed out the room with the others.

I did my signature move and wrapped my arms around Mitch's neck.

He leaned his forehead against mine. I smiled.

I kissed him and he kissed back, with more love than ever!

We started making out and he started stroking my hair.

He pulled away and I frowned.

''Listen Ali, we're all going to the beach tomorrow, so, I suggest you and Cassie go shopping right now. You two need to catch up!'' Mitch suggested.

''Ok, I'll go ask her.'' I kissed him on the cheek and left to find Cassie.

I ran out the hotel room to see Cassie already there.

''Hey Cassie.'' I greeted her.

''Hi.'' She greeted back.

''Umm Cassie, would you mind going shopping with me?'' I asked.

''If you don't want to, I totally understand.'' I added.

''No, I'd love to go we can catch up! It'll be fun!'' Cassie smiled. ''Let's go!''

Time Skip (2 Hours Later)

''Are you sure Mitch will like it?'' I yelled from the dressing room.

''I won't know unless you come outside and show me how it looks on you.'' Cassie yelled back.

I groaned and stepped out of the dressing room. I picked out a pink crop top, which had the words 'Geek' on it. Then, I chose white shorts.

Once I stepped out, Cassie covered her hand in awe.

''Ali, Mitch won't just like it, he'll love it!'' She said in astonished tone.

''You think so?'' I asked.

She nodded.

Time Skip (The Next Day)

Mitch's POV

I woke up to Ali next to me, sleeping so peacefully and serenely. I smiled, this time I'm never letting her go, no matter what!

I saw her eyes flutter open; once she saw me she smiled.

''Mitch.'' She said in a raspy voice.

''Good morning beautiful.'' I said as I kissed her forehead. ''Get ready, we're going to the beach in half an hour.''

''Alright babe!'' Ali said, then got up and ran to the bathroom to change.

5 minutes later, she got out of the bathroom looking gorgeous.

I instantly smiled.

''Do you like it?'' She asked.

''I love it.'' I approached her and kissed her. ''Just like I love you.''

''Now you go change you big giant!'' Ali laughed.

''Is that what you're going to call me now? Big giant?'' I asked.

''You are a big giant, compared to me.'' Ali pointed out. Ali's right, because of her gymnastics, she doesn't grow quickly.

I went to the bathroom to change, I wore my trunk (swimming suit) and put on a short and wore one of my, 'In Benja We Trust' t-shirts. I stepped out of the bathroom and Ali came running to hug me.

''Not that I'm complaining, but what was that for?'' I asked.

''For loving me.'' She smiled.

I took her hand and lead her outside. Outside of the hotel, Jerome had a mini-van waiting outside.

Everybody was already waiting in there, once we got inside Cassie winked to Ali and smiled.

''All right, let's goooo!'' Jerome shouted.

Jerome started the engine and we started moving.

''Are we there yet?'' Ali immediately asked.

We just all rolled our eyes.

''So Mitch, what's up with you and Ali?'' Jerome asked.

''Ali came up with a weird nickname for me…'' I sighed.

''What is it?'' Cassie asked out of curiosity.

''Big giant!'' Ali exclaimed.

They all laughed.

''Ali!'' I yelled. ''Fine then, I'll call you my small leprechaun.''

Now, they all were laughing at her.

''You're lucky I love you.'' She said with an attitude, and her cheeks bright red.

''Ali, admit it, you can't resist me.'' I said with a serious tone.

''Yes I can, you have a lot of flaws.'' She laughed.

''Like what?'' I asked.

''Umm- you don't take your shirt off enough.'' She said with disappointment.

''You don't take your shirt off enough!'' I said mocking her tone.

''No Mitch, just no…'' Jerome rolled his eyes.
