~The Next Day
I gazed out my bedroom window as I whiffed on a cigarette. Last night Ally had collapsed leaving me to panic but she had woken up and fallen into a deep sleep after that. This is exactly what I was afraid of but I just can't keep myself from her any more, I love her to much to do that.
"Austin" Ally muttered as she slowly wrapped her small arms around my waist from behind.
"I'm sorry about last night, I know I scared you and I didn't mean to" she sighed resting her forehead on my back.
"It's not your fault Alls so don't be sorry" I said with the cigarette between my lips before turning around and slowly stroking her cheeks as she beamed up at me, She's the only person that makes me happy right now and I really didn't want to lose her any time soon.
I bent down to kiss her until I heard my phone ring on my side table, I slowly pulled away from Ally as I made my way over there before picking up the phone.
"Hello?" I answered sitting down on my bed.
"Hello Austin this is Penny I just wanted to ask if you can look Ally just for today I have an emergency at work that I need to go to" she said quickly.
"Uhh sure Miss Dawson no problem"
"Thank you I'll come pick her up in the evening...also could you help me wish her a happy birthday it's her 17th birthday, I'm running very late" and with that she hung up the phone.
What? I muttered in confusion as I looked at Ally. Why didn't she tell me that it was her birthday today.
"Was that my mom again?" Ally asked walking over to me.
"Yeah she said she had to work again for today and she'll come pick you up in the evening" I stated, "She also said that it was your birthday".
"Oh...right" she whispered rubbing her arm.
"Ally why didn't you tell me it's your birthday today?" I questioned looking up at her. "Well...I-I didn't think you'd care that much so I decided not to say anything" she said and I slowly stood up;
"You're right I wouldn't have cared at all but now that I poured out all my feelings to you, I want no secrets between us" I said raising my voice a little at her.
"Secrets?...since when do you ever tell me anything" she coughed. "You didn't tell me your birthday Dez did and being because I love you so much I threw you a party I shouldn't have because of the way you've treated me all this while but I just couldn't help myself" she snapped.
I sighed as I ran my fingers through my hair, "Look I'm sorry I just got carried away there" I muttered pulling her into a hug.
"Of course this means that we have to celebrate it now" I smirked slowly pulling away from her.
"Oh it's OK Austin you don't have to do that" she laughed shaking her head. "Why not?" I asked. "W-Well I really haven't celebrated my birthday with anyone else apart from my mom and died before he-"
"Before he what?" I asked curiously as I sat down on my bed pulling Ally onto my lap. I didn't really know much about her dad at all.
"Before h-he" she stuttered as she began to cry, "Before he died..."
"Ally I'm so sorry" I whispered holding onto her waist as I wiped away her tears with my thumb.
"It's OK Austin it's not your fault" she sniffed, "It's just been really hard for me and my mom since he died, she's done her best to raise me all on her own and I just don't wanna leave her all alone and cause her so much pain again like when my dad died" she cried leaving me lost for words.
"Don't talk like that Ally" I muttered holding in all of my tears, "You're a strong girl and you're one of the most cheerful energetic girls I've ever seen" I said which made her chuckle a little. "Like I said before you don't look to good when you cry, so show me that smile" I said grabbing her chin so that she could look into my eyes.
She rubbed her nose before gazing into my eyes and a smile slowly crept up on her lips. "That's my girl" I said before kissing her cheek.
"Now hurry we gotta go" I said as I slowly removed her from my lap. "To where?" she asked wiping the last few tears away from her eyes.
I slowly walked up to her as I leaned in closer to her face; "I'm gonna give you the best birthday of your life...and that's a promise" I said grinning at her.
Ally and I talked and laughed as I made a 'U' turn in my car.
"Thanks for taking me to the cafe Austin" Ally giggled stuffing her mouth with blueberry muffins, "Be careful or you'll get fat" I teased turning to smirk at her as she playfully rolled her eyes at me.
"That's not the only place I'm taking you today" I said parking my car down the street at me and my gang's hang out spot.
"Austin where is this place?" she asked looking around the bad neighbourhood. "Uhh just wait in the car al-right I'll be back I just have to take care of a few things" I said getting out of the car.
"Please hurry" she muttered quietly pulling me back, "I promise" I smiled as I quickly kissed her hand before walking out of my car.
"Austin" Dez yelled my name as I slowly approached my gang members.
"Good to see you again man it's been like forever" he laughed, "You to man" I said as we did our special handshake.
"Austin we heard that you broke up with Cassidy" Trent said, "How did you guys know?" I questioned getting out a lighter. "Everyone's been talking about it we heard rumours that you hit her and raped her" Eliot stated.
"What the fuck?" I cursed in angrily, "Who did you hear that from?" I asked running my feelings through my hair frustrated. I can't believe that bitch was al-ready spreading false rumours about me.
"We pretty much heard it from everyone and people are saying that her older brother Michael is looking for you and is gonna beat you up" said Dallas.
"I'd like to see that son of a bitch try" I smirked as I turned to see the guys scratching their heads nervously. "What's the matter with y'all" I asked confused.
"Austin remember those group of guys from Uni that we beat up last year well her brother's the leader of the gang, and we heard that he's coming for us aswell" Dez said as he started to panic.
"You guys make me wanna kiss your asses right now" I spat out at them. "Are you forgetting who we are, are you forgetting who I am?" I yelled at them. "We're the most feared gang in town, we've injured people, we've broken the law and we get all the chicks" I said slapping their heads.
"If Cassidy's scum brother and his loser gang wants a fight then we'll give them a fight they'll remember for the rest of their fucking lives am I right" I yelled once more and they all quickly nodded.
"And we'll be right by your side like we've always been man" said Dez patting my shoulder.
"Good, now I gotta go and if you hear anything else tell me and I'll get to the bottom of this crap" I uttered still pissed of as I bumped fist with them before strolling to my car.
"Is everything OK?" Ally asked as I got in the driver's seat of my car. I ignored her as I ran my fingers through my hair leaning back on my chair.
"Austin?" she muttered my name and I slowly looked over at her;
"Don't worry about it al-right today's your birthday" I smiled before kissing her forehead. "Yes but I can't really be happy if I know that you're not...what happened?" she asked eagerly.
It amazes me how she always puts other people first before, how she cares about my happiness more than anything it's one of the reasons why I fell for her.
"You don't have to worry about me Alls I said stroking some of her hair. "A-Are you sure?" she said nestling into my hands and I quickly nodded. "Why don't we go to the music store, I have to talk to Gavin real quick and I promise we'll do whatever you want after that" I smirked, "That sounds great I haven't seen Gavin in weeks" she muttered before drinking from her juice box.
"Then let's go" I said before driving of to the music store.
~15 minutes later
Me and Ally walked into the music store hand in hand as we searched for Gavin.
"There he is" Ally said pointing to him talking to a girl, I smirked to myself deciding to embarrass him;
"Hey Gavin how did you find this one?" I said looking at the girl who looked like a cheap hooker from down the street, "Excuse me" the girl hissed chewing on her gum, "Who is this?" she asked turning to Gavin as he glared over at me.
"He's just messing around al-right I'll see you later Natalya" he smirked at her, "It's Natalie" she hissed and me and Ally looked at each other trying to hold n our laughs.
"Oh uhh-" "Just forget it Gavin" she hissed at him before walking out the store.
"What the hell did you do that for man?" Gavin sighed throwing his hands in the air. "Oh c'mon dude look at her we both know you were just trying to get laid" I laughed at him. "I uhh actually liked her and I don't go for girls that way any more" he said walking out of the counter.
"Of course you have buddy" I chuckled sarcastically slapping his shoulder.
"What about you look how many girls you've fuc-"
I quickly covered Ally's ears as I glared over at Gavin. "Whatever let's just forget about it" I hissed at him.
"Hey Ally how are you?" Gavin said quickly turning his attention to Ally. "I'm fine Gavin and don't listen to him he doesn't know anything" said Ally grinning up at me. "I'm right here" I said in a d'uh tone rolling my eyes at her".
Gavin quickly pulled Ally in for a hug as he raised his middle finger up at me trying to get me jealous, I quickly pulled Ally away from him as I wrapped my arm around her waist.
"Hey back of al-right she's mine" I snapped at him as he looked at me shocked.
I looked down at Ally as she started to go really red and I smirked to myself before pulling her in closer.
"Oh Gavin I need to talk to you about something" I said to him and he nodded. "Ally can you give us a minute please?" I said to her "Sure" she smiled before walking over to the big piano.
I smirked to myself as I watched her play before being interrupted by Gavin.
"Austin"! he snapped waving his hands in-front of my face and I quickly pushed him of annoyed.
"So I guess you told her how you felt ha?" he asked turning to me. "Actually she told me first and I gotta say man I was pretty surprised" I chuckled to myself. "Really, I know you're slow to figure things out but I thought this would be a no brainer, Me, Dez and Trish al-ready knew about it the only person that didn't know was you" he said patting my shoulder.
"If you hurt her Austin I swear to God I'll fucking kill you" he smirked before drinking a bottle of his water.
"Relax idiot...it's her birthday today" I uttered turning to look at her. "Really why didn't you tell me I would've gotten her something" he whined while scratching the back of his head.
"I would've probably threw it away afterwards but that's not important right now man we got a problem" I said seriously. "Dude what is it, is it something to do with the gang?" he asked eagerly.
"Well you know how I broke up with Cassidy sh-"
"About time you dumped her man she's changed a lot since HighSchool" he said cutting me of "She's been spreading loads of rumours about you".
"So you heard ha" I sighed running my fingers through my hair. "Everyone's been talking about it and if her so called brother wants to fight then you can count me in" he said and I smiled over at him.
"Thanks man" I said fist bumping him.
"Oh and take it easy on him, we don't want another person in the hospital" he muttered and we both burst out laughing.
I looked over at Ally to see her smiling at me softly while playing the piano. I winked at her as she quickly blushed before blowing me a kiss and going back to play the piano.
I slipped my hands into my pocket as I continued to stare at her, after everything we've been threw together and all the shit I put her through she deserves to be happy before it's too late.
