A/N: I don't own Austin and Ally
It has been a month an half and Austin hasn't heard one word from Ally. He sent birthday card to her a couple weeks ago and no word. He began to wonder if something went wrong when he told her his feelings, but she was the one to tell him first.
With the rainy days now, all Austin had to do was sit inside. He expected this, but with no letter from Ally, he never came out of his room. All day, inside his room he would either: sit in bed all day or sit at his desk and watch the rain fall down the window. He skipped many trips to leave the room only once to do everything; eat and go to the bathroom.
Some would say he was being over dramatic but that was how he got, he wouldn't help it. Everything with Ally got him more confused than ever. He truly did love her and she wont even speak to him. If she was just too busy and he was sitting around here for nothing, he would be very angry with himself, but it has been over a month.
With his back facing his bedroom door, he heard a knock and never once moved.
"Austin?" His father asked.
Still Austin didn't move at all. Mr. Moon walked up worried and looked hardly at Austin, to make sure he was still alive.
Once he saw him breath and heard him take a deep sigh, he said, "Austin... you can't keep doing this. It was going to happen sometime. Did you really think you would be talking to her forever?"
This really didn't help Austin at all. He looked up at Mr. Moon, glaring sightly. He couldn't help to think it was all his fathers fault for everything with Ally.
Sighing, Mr. Moon started towards the door, "I'm leaving. I'll be back in about an hour." Without another word he walked out of the room.
Austin went back to looking at the window and listening for the front door to shut, giving the sign his father is gone. Once he heard the faint noise of the door shut, Austin got up and headed down stairs. He was starving! He wasn't starving himself because of Ally, he just plain out didn't want to see his fathers face anymore, so he avoided him at all cost. He even started to bring bags of food into his room. Knowing that ran out, he knew it was time to make a trip to the kitchen soon as his father left.
From not being down stairs all weekend, it was pretty messy. Mostly his fathers business work everywhere and pointless crap laying around he never bothered to clean up at the moment. It was this way threw the whole bottom level. Getting into the kitchen he headed for the refrigerator He grabbed a few bottles of water and headed towards the pantry to get whatever was there.
Before he could even taking a step away from the refrigerator, he stopped a box. It looked very old. He couldn't figure out why it looked so familiar, but then he remembered it was his mothers. For years, Austin hasn't seen anything of his mothers. He hasn't even seen her since he was five. Mr. Moon got rid of everything of hers. Austin never asked questions about her though. All he was told was that she was gone.
With the box being his mothers Austin thought there would be something or somethings of hers inside. Placing the waters down he lift the top and found a bunch of paper. This made Austin narrow his eyes in wonder. Grabbing a folded paper he opened it and found many words written. Seeing that there was a date at the top, it read this was written only ten years ago. Curious to what was written he started to read.
I would love to say I'm sorry I left to you, but there is no way I would ever. The one I'm sorry to, is Austin. I wish I could say sorry to him and he would remember and know why but he is too young. Even if I'm leaving, don't expect this to be the last time you hear from me. You only will for Austin's sake, never yours.
I can't believe after everything we went threw, I still stuck with you. I would love to take Austin with me, but I need to start new. Forget you and me.
~Monika
Austin was a bit shocked. How would she know she was leaving? Did she kill herself, knowing? And why did she want to forget her and dad, Austin wondered to himself. Placing the letter down he randomly grabbed another and read it was from six years ago. Once again, he opened it up and read it.
I know you are ignoring my letters and not letting Austin remembering me. Why do you want Austin to forget me? I didn't truly want this. I had to get away from you and I couldn't take Austin with me. Everything he need was with you. He could live a good life without not getting the toy he wanted of things he wanted because his parent didn't have enough money. That is what I would have to do to him, nothing a mother would want.
Austin didn't both to read who it was from, he already knew. Behind the letter was another, a copy.
Monika, you truly didn't have to leave. I'd say everything was a mistake, but I wouldn't have you and Austin at the time. You seemed to ruin everything my leaving. There was no reason to leave. You'd say there was only because you had enough of me for six years. I don't want Austin to know about you because of what you did. It would break him. I had to protect him, something you never did for the last six years of his life.
Austin was in shock and anger. His mother has been on this earth for more than he thought. Forgetting he only had an nearly forty minutes until his father said he'd be home, Austin grabbed to box and letters he read and headed over to the dinning table. Closing the box he shook it up. He was so curious of everything, he wanted to be surprised with the next letter he would get from him mother, well at least he thought.
Opening the box again he grabbed a folded letter and opened it up. Once he saw the hand writing that was too familiar, he became outraged.
Dear Austin,
Why haven't you written me? I'm beginning to get worried I've done something wrong. Are you too angry with me from my last letter? I thought this would only be best for us. I'm sorry but for everything, we just can't be together. I cry myself to sleep every night thinking I can't have you. I've been very sad the past month knowing I can't have you and that you haven't replied. I beg you to say something to me. Anything! I need to know where we stand. Even if they say you are very unhappy with me and that you changed your mind, anything. Please? My birthday is next week, I know you won't say anything, why would you if you wont even reply to my own letter? I just want to tell you, I really wish you could be here for it. It wouldn't ever be the same without you.
~Ally.
Austin threw the letter down on the table hard and started digging threw the box for any other letter from Ally. He only found three. One sent to him before the one he just read, saying: No matter how much Ally and him liked and loved each other, it just won't work out. The second and last one he found said, that Ally was happy Austin sent her a birthday card and thank you, but wondered why he never said anything about her last letters. She said she started to think it got lost in the mail. Austin even ended up finding a letter from Trish asking what was wrong with Austin.
From searching for every letter from Ally in the box, papers were all over the table, the table was pretty small though because there was only Austin and Mr. Moon. Austin sat down and slouch in his chair starring into space. He must have not blinked for the past five minutes, when the silence in the house was broken with Mr. Moon opening the from door.
Taking him shoes and coat off, Mr. Moon saw Austin sitting in the kitchen from the corner of his eye. Smiling a little he said, "It's good to see you out of your room finally."
Austin looked up at Mr. Moon, looking pretty infuriated.
Mr. Moon looked up once he heard nothing from Austin. His expression changed completely once he spotted Austin's angry face and all the letters everywhere surrounding the box. Mr. Moon looked: shocked, scared and slightly upset at himself.
"Austin..." he said quietly while walking into the kitchen.
Austin picked up the first thing he saw, which was a piece of paper. He rolled it in a ball and threw it hard at his father, hitting him in the face, right in between the eyes.
"Don't Austin," Mr. Moon said again.
"You can't stop anything from me anymore," was all Austin said.
It was dead silent in the house, almost, you could just hear the anger in the room.
"Let me explain-" Mr. Moon told Austin slowly, but was cut off.
"No, I don't need any explaining from you. I got it all from these letters," Austin said, while grabbing a hand full of paper and showing his father before throwing them harshly on the floor.
"You told me mom was gone. The first thing that came to my five year old brain was that she was dead. Gone from this earth and my life for ever! No way for me to see her ever again," Austin told him, raising his voice and standing up.
"It was her choice," Mr. Moon told him.
"Yes, and you never tried to help her back...all you did was drive her away from my life."
Austin ran a hand threw his hair and took a deep breath.
"Don't even say it was her fault! She tried to be in my life, even if she wasn't physically there," Austin yelled at his father.
"Why do you care? She left, she wasn't a good enough mother to get up and leave all the perfect thing she had here."
"Bull shit,"Austin yelled looking back up at Mr. Moon, which who gave him a disapproving look for using such language, "She tried! It don't blame her one damn bit for leaving you! I thank her for leaving me here with you so I could live a happy life, but I'm unhappy it had to be you! If she could have provided both me and her money she would gladly take me with her! I know she never wanted to leave me here with you!"
Mr. Moon had nothing to say. He knew Austin was right, he just didn't want it to be known.
"Oh, and don't let me get started on Ally!" Austin was slightly more upset about the whole Ally thing.
"How could you steal those letters from me," Austin yelled in a disgusted voice.
"I wouldn't let you be with her. She don't deserve you... Anyways, she too much like your mother," Mr. Moon said and added a harsh laugh, "Yes, just what I need. Another Monika in this family."
This sickened Austin. Taking a deep breath, Austin grabbed the letters from Ally and the important ones he found from his mother and headed for the stairs.
Mr. Moon turned around and fallowed Austin up the steps. Austin jogged towards his room and slammed the door before his father could come. Then he took his dresser next to the door and pushed it against the door, just so Mr. Moon had no way of getting inside. Grabbing a suitcase out of his closet, Austin opened it and began to stuff random cloths inside. He didn't both to fold any or pick specific ones. Once he thought he had enough clothes he put threw the letters from the box in the bag and grabbed the letter from Ally in his desk. Looking around he made sure there was anything very important he needed. He had to get out of here so he couldn't bother to pack anything but things that would fit inside the suitcase. He grabbed a pile of he used to record songs. He had to bring them because nobody else had them, let alone listened to them. Sadly he had to leave his instruments, but if it meant to get out of this hell hole, it was worth it!
Getting his shoes on he opened his window up and looked out to see how far his suitcase would have to travel. He would throw it out his window, down into the house's little garden. Even if it was raining and it would get wet, he could care less! It was better than him leaving his room with his suitcase and his father asking questions. When he saw it was safely on the ground, he closed the window and started towards the door. Before he moved the dresser away he opened his wallet to make sure he had everything. He had his drivers license and cards for the bank, everything he would ever need. From the past many years of working on his grandfathers farm in the country and getting money he saved that up for a rainy day. Also from the few jobs he had, the Melody Dinner, the little job he took for the summer in Miami and the job he got here, he believed he had enough to get back to Miami. Then after enough money he needed to pay whatever he may need. He could think of a few things too, like his bathroom things he never got. After making sure he had the things he needed in his wallet, he made sure he had his phone.
Once it was clear he had that he moved to the side of the dresser and pushed it over, back to where it was not even an hour before. In his room he had hard wood floors, so under closed door you could see about an inch off the floor, out into the hallway. Getting to the floor, Austin looked out to the hallways floor to see nothing in the way. That meant his father walked away from the door and it was clear to open it.
Standing up he opened it and headed out. Walking down the stairs he pulled the hood of his jacket up.
Mr. Moon was in the kitchen finishing cleaning up the letters and putting them in the box and next heading to make something to eat. When he saw Austin he raised an eyebrow, "Where are you going?"
Austin didn't even glance at his father, his back only face him. "John's," he simply said.
"Alright," Mr. Moon muttered. He thought if Austin left it would get his mind past everything and things will get better.
Austin was a bit shocked he said yes, but then again saying no wouldn't stop Austin anyways!
He heard Mr. Moon pull a kitchen chair in and walking away. The steps became faint, meaning he walked more into the kitchen. There was a big wall blocking the kitchen and living room off, meaning Mr. Moon wouldn't see Austin grab his suitcase outside the living room window.
Opening the door, Austin walked out into the rain. He grabbed his wet suitcase from the grass and headed down the street, deeper into town. Once there he waited for a taxi to pick him up to take him to the airport. Next stop would be Miami, Florida.
