Chapter 36:
Review! Here's the next chapter everybody!
Ally's POV
"Okay so maybe we shouldn't of gone ice skating." Austin said walking into our room. Wow. OUR room sounds nice doesn't it.
"But it was so much fun." I smiled trying to sit up but coughing loudly.
"Not exactly how I imagined our first day here." Austin sighed as he tried opening a cough medicine bottle.
"Sorry." I said sadly but then coughed. Have you ever had such a horrible cough, you feel like you sound like a huffing dragon? That's how I sound like. Or at least that's how I feel like I sound like.
"Why are you sorry? It's not your fault you got sick." He said pouring the sticky liquid into a spoon.
He sat next to me on the bed but I crinkled my nose and went under the sheets.
"Alls you have to take it." He sighed.
"No."
"Ally." He whined.
"Fine." I muffled and sat up.
"Vooom! Here comes the aero spoon!" He exclaimed hovering the spoon in my face.
"Really?" I glared.
"Sorry." He said quickly shoving it into my mouth.
"That's gross." I said making a disgusted face making him laugh.
"I really thought we were actually gonna sleep in the same bed together for once without being worried about being caught." He laughed.
"Yeah... My throat had other plans." I said sheepishly. Last night Austin and I spent the night watching movies together and then I started coughing. And that's what I've basically been doing all night. I insisted Austin slept in another room because I didn't want to get him sick.
"So I'm going to the store, we have absolutely nothing to eat in our lovely home," Austin smiled.
"I'll bring you soup and pickles." He said grabbing the keys off the nightstand.
"Thanks Austin." I smiled.
"No problem anything else you want?" He asked sliding his shoes on.
"No that's it, just get food for the house, I mean. Our house." I smiled.
"Fun to say right?" He teased as I nodded.
"Okay il be right back." He said coming over to give me a kiss but I blocked him with the sheets.
"I was aiming for your forehead." He whined.
"Nope." I said shooing him away with my hand.
I felt him grab my hand and kiss it.
"Austin!" I screamed.
"Later." I heard him call as he walked out of the room. He doesn't listen does he? I smiled looking at my hand.
I heard the front door close and then closed my eyes. I tried going to sleep, but I couldn't. I got up and started walking around the house. I went to the room Trish and I shared. It was left untouched of course, our clothes weren't their but it looked just the way it did when we got there. I went to my moms piano room and then I went to a special room where I stood at the door touching the knob, debating whether or not I should open it. Bay's room.
Should I? I feel likes I can still hear her play in there. I opened it to see the pink room. Her toys were gone because she took them with her to Miami but her bed and dresser was still in here. There was still green paint on the wall with he handprint on it. I remember that day like it was yesterday. I had to shower her three times just to get the green paint out of her hair.
I love her and I love this house but, it reminds me too much of the past. The past has been so much fun but I feel like we are still in someone else's house. Does that make sense? What if we make it our own and create our own memories. Like when Austin and I have kids they could- did I just? Did I just think that? I've thought about Austin and I and our future before but I didn't know it was this serious. I want it to be, more than anything but does he really want to be married to me for the rest of his life? Does he want to have kids? I mean, he asked me to move in with him.. I just wish he could tell me. I love him but what if he only wants to be with me now and not in the future? I need to stop thinking, I scare myself sometimes.
"I'm back!" I heard him yell. Have I really been in here that long?
"Ally where are you- Oh." He said walking into the room I was in.
"Are you okay?" He asked as I sat there on her bed looking around her room.
"Yeah I'm fine, hey Austin I have an idea, but i don't know what you would think about it." I said playing with my hands.
"What is it?" He said sitting next to me.
I got up and rubbed my elbows.
"I just thought maybe we can change the house a bit." I said nervously.
"Change it?" He asked.
"Yeah, I just feel like. I mean." I stuttered.
"We grew up in this house. My mom slept in the same sheets in our bedroom. Bay is gone and this room just makes me-"
"Ally I get it." Austin smiled.
"I was thinking the same thing. We should make this house our own, for new memories." He said smiling wrapping his arms around my waist as I blushed.
"But, we can change it but not the little things I love." I smiled.
"And that is?" He asked.
"Like the wall in the kitchen of our height measurements when we were little, and the ink stain and especially my moms room." I smiled.
"Don't worry I want that to stay too." He smiled leaning in for kiss but I moved out of the way.
"Oh come on you haven't coughed." He whined.
"I want my soup." I laughed walking downstairs as he followed.
"How about after you eat we go to the furniture store we can go pick out some new stuff?." He asked.
"Sure." I smiled back at him.
Austin's POV
"Ooh! This one!" She exclaimed.
"Oh wait. No! This one!" She smiled pointing at the big bed frame.
"Which one do you like more?" She asked me with gleaming eyes. She's so cute, I'm so glad she said yes.
"Hmm." I said looking at the two she liked.
"The bigger one, our room is big. We should get the big one." I smiled.
"Right!? I was thinking the same thing!" She exclaimed walking closer to the bed.
"Hi may I help you and your wife?" An associate of the store came up to us to ask.
I quickly turned to Ally who was blushing a deep red.
"Umm yes, but this my girlfriend." I smiled nervously.
"Oh. I'm sorry but usually couples that are married come in for furniture. So sorry honest mistake." The old man said with a laugh.
"But what can I help you two with?" He asked.
"We'd like to know how much this entire bed set is?" Ally asked.
The man led us to a desk area and we picked out a lot of furniture. Furniture for the living room, our room, Bay's room which is gonna be a guest bedroom and the other rooms.
We set up a date of what day all the furniture would be shipped and we headed out of the store.
"Wait." I stopped Ally before she walked out.
"What?" She asked confused as I gestured to her coat she was holding, not wearing.
"Oh." She said slipping it on.
She was about to walk out but I stopped her again.
I wrapped a scarf around her and zipped her coat up.
"Austin."
I put a beanie on her head and earmuffs on her ears.
"Austin."
I was about to slip on some gloves on her but she grabbed my hands and laughed them away.
"Austin! It isn't a blizzard out there! And all I have is a cough!" She yelled annoyed.
"I don't care your not getting anymore sick." I said slipping them on as she rolled her eyes as we walked out the door.
The way home was a comfortable silence but all I thought about is what the old guy said at the furniture store. He thought Ally was my wife. She smiled when he said it so that a good thing. I want Ally to be my wife it had such a nice ring to it. Ally Moon. Does it just sound perfect?
"What are you smiling about?" She asked from the passenger side. I turned red when I remembered what I was thinking, I also smiled because she looked like a marshmallow from the amount of sweaters I stuck on her.
"Nothing." I said as we approached the house.
She yawned and coughed a bit as we entered the house.
"I'm a take a nap." She said walking upstairs tiredly.
I waited until the master bedroom door was closed and I quickly grabbed my keys and headed over to Trish and Dez's house as fast as possible.
I knocked on the door and Dez answered.
"Hey buddy! Come on in I was just about to-" he started but I cut him off by harshly walking inside the house and laying throwing myself on the couch.
"So I'm guessing you need to talk?" He asked closing the front door and sitting on the couch.
"Where's Trish?" I asked.
"She's out getting her nails done with Cassidy." He said rolling his eyes.
"Girls." He muffled.
"So what's wrong?" He asked.
"Dez what if I did the wrong thing? I asked Ally to move in with me before we even got married what if she-"
"You want to marry Ally?" He asked with a smile.
"I uh." I said thinking for a while. Nope. Not a doubt in my mind.
"Yeah I really do." I smiled.
"Wow dude that's big." Dez smiled.
"Yeah but, what if she says no? What if she thinks I rushed into things too quickly? What if-"
"Austin do you love Ally?" He asked cutting me off.
"Yeah more than anything." I smiled.
"More than pancakes?" He asked seriously.
"Yes Dez, more than pancakes." I laughed.
"Then I don't see what you should be worried about." He said calmly.
"Your right Dez." I smiled. Wow. Never thought I would hear those words come out of my mouth.
"I'm a ask Ally to marry me." I smiled. Wow. Never thought I'd hear those words either. But I've never been so sure about anything in my life.
Review! Do you think Austin should go though with it? Let me know! Review!
