Hello! Sorry that it's taking me such a long time. School is eating up my time, so this is the last chapter for this story. I feel like if I go on, this story is just going to get boring and stale, so I'm ending it now. Plus, with all of my AP classes it would just be adding to my pile of stuff to do. Anyway, I hope you guys like the last chapter. Enjoy!

Austin POV

I woke up feeling really warm and cozy, which is weird for being on the floor. I felt something next to me and I opened my eyes. Ally was right next to me still sleeping. When did she get out of her bed? Either way, it felt so warm and her head way nuzzled on my chest. I checked my phone and it read 6:30am. It's kinda early, but I knew I had to think of something fast to give to Ally. Then I remembered something. I still have the charm bracelet I bought last week. I should give it to Ally, and maybe it will cheer her up a little more. I got out of bed without waking Ally and went downstairs. I looked out front and the car was gone. Mr. Dawson must have left early to run some errands. I went in the kitchen and drank a glass of water.

I really should do something for Ally. I am in the kitchen after all. I might as well make a wonderful breakfast! Pancakes all the way!

Ally POV

I smell food... I reached over to get closer to Austin but there was no one there. I stood up and he was gone. Why do I smell food? I looked at my clock and it read 7:30am. I went downstairs and found something so unexpected.

"Good morning, Ally! Hope you feel better! I made you a pancake buffet. I made the classic, blueberry, chocolate, banana, and cinnamon. Enjoy!" Austin looked so happy about his accomplishment. I had this huge smile on my face, and it made Austin smile too.

"This is amazing! I can't believe you did this all for me." I walked up to Austin and gave him a huge hug. My stomach started to rumble, so it's time to eat.

The pancakes were amazing, especially the banana one. I ate as much as I could, but I still didn't eat as much as Austin, who had like twenty. We didn't really talk that much, mostly because our mouths were full, but also because that we didn't have to. My sister going to jail has past, and a new chapter is rising. In a weird way, Austin became my sister, like how he is my goose. I don't think of Austin as a sibling, but something way more powerful that I just can't explain. I usually mourn about something for a couple of days, and for this particular subject I should be mourning for like a month. But for some reason, my mourning period only lasted a day. Maybe this is what my sister wanted. Abby didn't want me to suffer and shut down. She wanted me to live and feel free. There's nothing I can do about Abby going to jail, but there is something I can do about myself.

"Austin, you're such an amazing friend, and I don't think I could live without you." He frowned at me and I didn't know why. "Did I say something wrong?" He stayed silent for a while and then broke the silence.

"Friend? So I'm only a friend to you?" He didn't say it in a harsh tone. It was more like a whimper. "C'mon, Ally. I thought I meant more than that." I was a little shocked, but he was right.

"So are we having the talk? I guess so. Austin, there is no one else in the world that I would ever be with. I would be honored to be your girlfriend, and I'm hoping that I get to call you boyfriend." I smiled a little and he did too.

"I guess it's official! Ally Dawson is officially my girlfriend! I guess now I can give you this." What is Austin up to?

Austin stood up and knelt down on one knee. He took out a jewelry box and showed it to.

"Uhh. What are you doing?"

"Just go with it." He smiled. "Ally Dawson, will you accept this charm bracelet as a symbol of our new relationship?" He opened up the jewelry box and show me this beautiful bracelet with music notes and clef symbols. It felt like this charm bracelet was made for me.

"It's beautiful! I love it. Just as much as I will love you." He put it on my right arm and he gave me a hug. We hugged for a really long time, and when we broke apart our lips met.

This was a start of a new chapter. The past is the past, and it will stay there. Now, the future is calling me and Austin is right by my side.

Yay! It's done and over! They are together and they lived happily ever after. Hope you liked my story and tune in if I ever make another one.
