Austin's POV

Ally and I sit in my car eating breakfast from McDonald's just enjoying each others company. "Are you still nervous for the final game?" Ally asked me taking a sip of her orange juice as I shrugged with a bite of a sandwich in my mouth. "A little." I said as she made a gross face before wiping my mouth because I talked with my mouth full as some fell out making me chuckle. I swallow it and thank her and she just shakes her head with a smile kissing my cheek.

"Not as nervous as before of course because of you. You always believed in me and that enough makes me feel like I can do anything."

"Because you can baby. With or without me." She told me rubbing my arm. "I prefer with you." I say as she smiles while I look in her eyes and blush suddenly looking down.

"What is it, Austin?" She asked me as I shook my head avoiding eye contact. "Babe?" She said again as I looked at her and blushed even more. "I was just wondering...last night..." I start as she realized what I was talking about blushing herself as she tries to get more comfortable in the seat.

"Did you like it or...regret it?" I asked because though it was the best night of my life, we never talked about it since last night,

Ally started to laugh which made me confused and start to feel bad before she grabbed my face making me look her in the eyes. "Babe, you couldn't be more clueless. Last night was the best night of my life and I couldn't regret it even if I wanted to. I have never felt closer to you and I would do it all over again happily." She told me as I examined her face knowing she meant nothing but the truth before a huge smile came across my face before I attacked her lips as she returned it quickly as we begin to heavily make out in my car.

Ally enters her tongue in my mouth as I join my own as we both fight for dominance causing moans from both parties. "Wait, before we get more in this, I wanted to invite you over to my house before you go with your friends later." I said out of breath along with her as she nodded with a smile agreeing before leaning back in and kissing me. She gets on top of me in the driving seat as I wrap my arms around her waist while our lips collide over and over again.

*Time Skip*

Ally's POV

When I enter Cassidy's house, I notice her dad's jacket and keys are missing so he's not here but her mother's things are and that's when I hear her in the kitchen.

"Hey, Mrs. Jones. I didn't realize you didn't leave this morning. Day off?"

"That's because you rushed out so fast to go to school with your boyfriend and since school has been closed for an hour now, I'm guessing that's who you've been with all this time?" She teased as I blushed and she giggled.

"And yes, sweetie. I have the day off." She answered as I nodded sitting on the stool in front of the counter just observing her washing last nights dishes.

"Cassidy left her cheer uniform at the school and went to go get it. I actually don't know why it's taking her so long." I informed her mom as she raised her eyebrows intrigued.

"Yeah, she definitely lied to you sweetheart."

"Huh? What do you mean?"

"Cassidy says the same lie every time she wants...'alone time' with Dallas. When she says she leaves her uniform at school, it's because she knows me or her dad is home and so is his parents so they go somewhere to be together." She said uncomfortably as I now understood.

"Obviously, it's not a mother's ideal visual but Cassidy is an adult now and she has to learn to be responsible for herself. I just find it funny that she thinks I haven't caught on." She said as I chuckled shaking my head. She played me and played me so well. Mrs. Jones observed me before taking a seat across from me.

"Why don't you ever talk about your mother?" She asked as I am caught off guard. "Not to be intrusive but you don't talk about her much. She let you finish high school across the country. She had to be a pretty cool mom, right?" She asked about it and the woman is letting me live in her house for the rest of the time I'm here, so the least I could do is give her something. "Um, yeah she was real cool to do that but we aren't really close. Not like we use to be." I tell her honestly as she titled her head with sympathy.

"Oh...I'm real sorry to hear that." She replied as I shrugged.

"It's okay. I'm use to it."

"You shouldn't be."

"That's sweet but-"

"I'm seriously, Amy. It shouldn't be something you should be use to. Especially if you had something special before."

"It's more complicated than that."

"What relationship isn't if we're being honest?" She said as I didn't know how to reply. "I mean what mother and child doesn't fight or get along or siblings or spouses? Some are worst than others but it's normal."

"I...I don't know if we can get our relationship back to the way it was. Reason being...I don't even think she realizes there's a problem in it because she's so wrapped in something else."

"Like what?" She asked I looked like I didn't want to put my problems on her.

"Come on, I'm listening." She said drinking some coffee she made herself earlier. "Okay, well she loves me a lot, but she doesn't show it nearly as much as she use to. I feel like as I got older, her priorities changed and I became more of an object she needed to succeed rather than a person or daughter."

"Did you ever tell her that's how you feel?"

"I tried...but she's never been a good listener."

"Do you have any idea what could have made this switch in your mother since you say she was never this way before?"

"Um...my dad passed away. He was the love of her life but she never talks about him anymore. The last time she did was when I was 9. It's like he doesn't exist to her now and I don't know why." I told her as she looked at me and nodded slowly.

"Maybe it's her way of coping with his death."

"But he died when I was two. Wouldn't she have already mourned long ago?"

"That's not vastly true. It can take people days, weeks, months, even years to come to terms that their love ones are gone and sometimes people grieve for the rest of their lives. Loss is not a timed schedule."

"I didn't mean-"

"No, I know you didn't mean that sweetie. It's just you being so young...you weren't old enough to process such a huge loss. I'm not making excuses for your mom because for all I know it has nothing to do with that but whatever it is, don't forget that there is a reason." She reassured me as I sighed a little agreeing silently.

"Do me a favor and promise me that when you see your mom, you'll tell her exactly what's been on your mind and you won't hold back at all. You'll force her to pay attention and listen no matter what else she has to do and even if it doesn't work out, you will know that you did whatever you could to salver that relationship." She stated as I observed her and knew she was serious and passionate about it.

"Okay, I promise." I tell her as she doesn't know if she trusts my words. "I promise!" I say again with a chuckle as she smiles. "Good. You want some coffee?" She asked sweetly as I nodded my head. "Yes, that would be perfect. Thank you." I tell her as she begins to pour me some.

I could only dream of having an awesome relationship like this with my own mom. Cassidy is so lucky to have such a caring, loving and remarkable mother.

Austin's POV

Dallas and I sit on the bench drinking some water after football practice. "Amy got into UCLA. It's nerve wrecking waiting to know if I'm in too." I told him as he turned to face me.

"Cass got in too. At least they'll be together just in case we don't."

"Man, don't say that. I'm already gonna be pissed if I don't."

"Well, don't be. It could still happen for us. I've seen you be nervous before, Austin but I've never seen you doubt yourself. What's going on?" He asked genuinely concerned about me.

"I don't know, man. This year has been a roller coaster ride for me. Especially falling in love with Amy. I want to get into the best school to get me a guaranteed career...but I don't wanna end up somewhere Amy isn't. She's everything to me, Dallas and I don't wanna lose her." I tell him honestly about my worry as he opens his mouth to say something but the coach blows the whistle.

"Crowd around!" He shouted as we all came up waiting for whatever announcement or speech he needed to say. "Look, it has now come down to the wire and every single game has mattered but this one matters the most. You know this. I know this. Some of you see this as just a fun sport. Some of you see this as a career. Either way, you give this game your all and nothing less. There will be 6 recruiters there that are looking for players to join the top universities in the country including New York, California and Atlanta. Take advantage of it and show them what you're made of. Got it?" He told us as we all said 'yeah' and he nodded leaving us.

Dallas and I make our way back to the benches when Cassidy comes over. "Hey, What are you doing here, babe?" He asked kissing her quickly. "I 'left my uniform here' remember?" She said as I chuckle rolling my eyes at her reference as he did with a smirk. "Of course. How could I forget?" He said before turning around to me.

"Look, I'm gonna go man but do me a favor and don't sweat anything. I got a good feeling about you and Amy and whatever happens, you'll be fine because you'll always have each other." He told me as I slightly smiled. "Thanks, dude. I'll see you tomorrow." I say as he smiles with a nod before taking off with Cassidy as I head home quickly before Amy comes over.

Ally's POV

"Mrs. Jones, can you tell Cassidy that I'll be at Austin's house for a while but that I'll be back in an hour to hang with her and the girls?" I asked kindly as she nodded. "Of course, honey. You go on." She said as I nodded thankful as I headed out and walked next door knocking on my boyfriend's door who answers shortly after. "Hey ba-" I am cut off by being pulled into the house and roughly pushed against the wall when soft lips meet mine. It takes my mind on a spin but I am quick to adapt and I quickly wrap my arms around his neck as I let his tongue violate my mouth in all kinds of ways.

We both moan into the heavily passionate make out session that is starting to get real intense before we pull away to catch both of our breaths.

"Whoa. What did I do to deserve that?" I asked with a hazy smile as I try to calm my heart rate down. "Nothing. I just really missed you." He admitted really close and personal as I kissed his lips one more time before giggling.

"I know we've been extremely busy with our own things as graduation gets closer but I wanna make the best of the time I have with you." I tell him honestly as he smiles. "I agree. I actually have a request that I'm not sure you'll be into but I'm gonna ask anyway." He said as I became curious.

"How would you feel about skinny dipping in my pool?" He asked as I raised my eyebrows. "Wait, seriously?" I asked intrigued as he nodded his head with a smirk. "I actually want to do that." I admit as he looks a bit shocked.

"Are you kidding with me?"

"Nope. I've been taking risk ever since I came here and I don't wanna stop now. Let's do it." I shout as I go past him on my way to his backyard as he is still stunned.

"Are you coming or not lover boy?" I asked turning around as I took off my blouse showcasing my red lace bra and that's when he ran to me making me laugh.

We head out together and Austin quickly strips down jumping in the pool as I take my time for the tease. I remove my shorts as he watches in amazing before I turn around unraveling my bra strap and I swear I can hear his gulp even though he's seen it all before. I turn back around to face him now that my bra is off and his eyes travel down and it looks like he's falling in love again and I can't help but giggle. Lastly, I remove my panties and showed off my newly done wax that I got when I went with Cassidy last weekend and he definitely noticed and I see his manhood expand from inside the pool.

I finally get in the water and make my way over to him wrapping my arms around his neck while he just observed my entire face mesmerized. "You are so beautiful." He speaks lowly under his breath bringing a smile to my face. "I can say the same thing, Mr. Moon." I respond as he makes an amused expression.

"You think I'm beautiful?" He asked in an almost mocking but playful tone. "Yes," I say nodding my head surely. "You are a very beautiful man." I tell him as he just smiles and leans in planting a soft and lingering kiss on me.

I sigh into it tightening my grip around is neck without hurting him as we move slowly back in the water until he gently pins me against the edge of the pool. The kiss gets more intense as we moan into each others mouths as he picks up my legs wrapping them around his waist as I feel his member grow against me.

"Baby..." I moan as he pulls away to give my sweet spot on my neck some attention that begins to drive me crazy when he adds his tongue to begin sucking on it. I feel him grip my little booty under the water causing a small moan out of me. He brings his face to mine kissing me once again shortly before lowering himself more into the water as he plops one of my nipples in his mouth causing me to throw my head back in pleasure. "Don't stop baby," I moan loudly as I feel myself become more aroused as he sticks a finger inside me making me gasp.

Austin begins massaging my area while continuing to suck on my nipple ferociously. "Mmm..." I moaned grinding myself into his hand as he started to push more fingers in and out of me. "I need you." I tell him as he looks at me. "Please Austin...make love to me." I beg because I couldn't take it anymore. I needed a release and I know with his swollen bulge, so did he. He smiled coming back up to me and kissing me as he entered me so quickly I could barely register it. He moves in swiftly and keeps it at a slow pace which I love because it makes me feel him in me all the more.

"God, baby," He growled in my ear sending shivers down my spine. He goes in and out as I softly bite my lip but it doesn't help the loud moans getting sent out into the world and I really hope no one is out there house right about now because we aren't being discreet at all.

Soon enough, my legs begin to quiver and I orgasm as he cums inside me leaving us both breathless. I kiss him as he returns it quickly as it turns into a passionate make out session.

"I love you so much, Amy..." Austin said as we pulled away with his eyes closed leaning his forehead against mine as I took in how he said it. Like he was so in love. I know he is but he said it with so much...emotion and I can't help but think about Christopher's words just yesterday about breaking his heart.

I decide to shake it off and smile rubbing his right cheek softly. "I love you more." I tell him as he smiles shaking his head as if it couldn't be true.

"We should head inside." I say sitting up on the edge before standing up and holding my hand out for him as he laughed taking it as we went inside.

We dry off before putting our clothes back on and resting on his sofa snuggled up together watching TV until he turns to me. "Where did you come from, Amy?" He asked sweetly looking in my eyes making me blush heavily before smiling widely and giggling as he looked at me longingly before tilting his head.

"What is it?" I asked curious of his staring.

"No-nothing. It's just...you reminded me of someone when you smiled that way just now." He told me as I felt my heart pound out of my chest.

"That's weird." I giggled awkwardly.

"I should go." I said quickly standing up.

"Wait, what? Did I do something wrong?" He asked getting up as well concerned about my reaction. "Of course not, handsome. The girls and I are hanging at the mall today and I don't want to be late." I tell him truthfully but also avoiding the reason why I'm leaving so abruptly. "Oh okay. Have fun babe." He said with a smile as I kissed him goodbye before leaving and taking a long deep breath against the door before walking off his porch.

I make my way back over to Cassidy's house and when I enter, all the heads of my friends turn toward me from the couch before standing up. "Look, who's finally here." Kira commented with a smirk folding her arms along with Trish. "Yeah, she ditched us for some dick once again." Trish said bluntly making the other girls laugh except for Carrie and Cheryl who just playfully rolled their eyes.

"I did not! You guys weren't here yet and I promised Austin I would come over some time today. I told Mrs. Jones to tell you..."

"She did. Don't worry, girl. There just messing with you." Cheryl said placing a hand on my shoulder as I smile before facing the group again.

"So...ready to hit the mall?" I asked opening the door again. "Is that even a question?" Cassidy answered running out the door along with everyone else as I just shake my head and giggle. It's gonna be nice hanging with them today.

"Prom was so fun last night. I still can't believe it's over. I wanted it to last forever." Cassidy shared with a mesmerized look thinking back to it. "Me too." I said lowly with a smile. "Any reason why?" Trish asked with a smirk as Kira bumped my shoulder trying to get stuff out of me.

"Austin and I had a great time."

"Oh, I bet you did!" Kira teased.

"Shhh, Kira. Amy told us that she would do it when she was ready so stop pressuring-"

"We did it." I admitted as all of them widened their eyes before breaking out with cheers as I blushed.

"Wait...seriously?" Cassidy asked loudly in disbelief as I nodded with a blush. "Yup and it was so amazing but that's all I'm sharing. Sorry ladies, the details stay with me and him only." I say as they all groaned.
Silence fell as we listened to the radio. "Dez and I did it too..." Carrie admitted as we all dropped our mouths open as she smiled and giggled nervously. "I had no idea I was going to tell you guys so soon but Amy did and it gave me some confidence. But just like Amy, I'm also not sharing details, perverts." She said as they groaned and I chuckled.

"You guys are no fun." Trish said as Cassidy pulled into the parking lot.

We arrive at the mall and all have vastly different taste that I didn't notice so we check out different stores in the same vicinity. I look around on clothing racks and smile when I see a cute top, and right when I reach for it, some large thing bumps me harshly and I soon realize my hand is empty.

As soon as my mind wraps around what just happened, I chase the guy as he runs to the back of the store trying to get out the exit but good thing I'm wearing sneakers today and I have a good experience with running since that's all I did with paparazzi. I tackle him and take my purse and start beating him with it as he covers his body with his arm like a baby until his eyes widen looking at me.

"You are being reported right away and don't think I'll forget what you look like because I have a photogenic memory!" I shouted at the asshole's face as he still just stared in shock.

Suddenly, the top of my head feels lighter than usual and I see my blonde wig next to me from the corner of my eye. My eyes widen when I realize I've been exposed even with the blue eyes because it's so obvious once you take away the main difference.

I panicked and leaned down and punched the guy hard enough to knock him out to buy me some time to leave. I quickly pick up my wig, adjust it and run out the store when I'm met with the rest of the girls.

"Hey, Ams. Did you find anything?" Carrie asked sweetly as I awkwardly smiled. "Nope. We should go. I heard the other side of the mall is better." I say as we leave.

We eventually take a break from shopping and decide to get lunch. "I won't lie, I am extremely nervous for life after graduation but these last 5 months have been amazing with you girls." Cassidy voiced. "Yeah, and its all because of you Amy. Some of us didn't even speak to each other before that much or at all and now we're closer than ever because you brought us all together and now we are friends for life because of that. Thank you." Kira said appreciative as I smiled at all of them and thought how grateful I was to find them on this beautiful but difficult journey.

"Hey, what's this?" Trish commented picking up a paper that fell out my purse. "Oh no, that's nothing." I say trying to snatch it back from her hands but she pulls it away with a smile. "Nothing my ass. This is a song! An amazing one too..." She said as she read it and the other girls crowd around her doing the same. I sigh in embarrassment as they just smile and look in amazement. "Amy, this is so good. When did you write this?" Cheryl asked facing me as I shrugged.

"It was a little something I came up with last week."

"This is not something you just come up with. I could imagine listening to this on the radio!" Trish stated and said purposely because she knew who I was. "Agreed." The rest said.

"Is this about all of us and our friendship?" Cassidy asked with a hand over her heart as I smile shaking my head at her dramatics.

"Yes."

"Aweeeeeee." They all say simultaneously as I chuckle rolling my eyes as we finish lunch and make our way to the exit when a mall stage catches our attention.

"Oh my god, we have to do that!" Kira cheered looking upon it. "What? No way!" I said as they pouted and groaned upset. "Why not? It's free karaoke and we could use your song!" Cheryl added as my eyes widened. "My song! Nuh uh. It's not even that good, and you guys don't even know all the lyrics." I disagreed. "Yes, it is good. It's amazing! And even if it wasn't, we're just having fun! Plus, we've been reading it for over 15 minutes, I think we got most of it down and we'll take turn on verses." Trish said starting to convince me as they looked my way for approval. "Okay...fine." I say giving in as they cheered as we discussed who would have each part before getting in line on stage before going on next as I connect my phone to the speaker to display the music I produced on an app I did for the song.

"Oh my god, that felt amazing!" Carrie squealed the most excited I've seen her. "I know! It was like being a real superstar." Kira agreed with a smile on her face that wouldn't go away. "And it came so natural to you, Amy. It was like you were born to be one." Cheryl stated as Trish and Cassidy tried to hide a laugh because the irony was that I was born to be one because I am exactly that. "She was." Cassidy sweetly said nudging my shoulder reminding me that she always got my back and supports me as I smile at her.

"You guys want to go to a bar? That was a lot of fun singing up there with you guys and now I just wanna let loose and maybe on some guys." Kira stated making us all laugh as we agreed.

"Alright, but only three of us are allowed to get hammered and the other three have to stay sober to help with the others plus driving if needed." Carrie said as we nodded. "Okay, I'm definitely getting drunk. Who else?" Kira asked looking around. "Me!" Trish and Cassidy raised their hands which left Cheryl, Carrie and me to be the sober ones. "Alright, let's go girls." I say as we all head out the mall.

When we get out the car after arriving home from the bar scene, I see Austin come out on his porch from the corner of my eye before facing him. I notice he's taking out the trash before he makes eye contact with me and smiles.

"Go ahead. We got them." Cheryl said as she and Carrie held up a drunk Trish, Kira and Cassidy. "You sure?" I questioned as she nodded starting to walk towards the house with Carrie and them.

I walked over to Austin who was just waiting for me to come. "Ooo, Ally's gonna be having seeeeeeex tonight guysssss!" Cassidy shouted drunkenly as Kira and Trish made fake moans making me blush and Austin looking amused. "Sorry about them. We went to the bar after the mall trying out our new fake ID's and they got super wasted." I told him as he just laughed. "Yeah, I can tell. It's okay." He said before leaning down and kissing me.

I quickly wrapped my arms around his neck kissing him back passionately as we both tightened our hold on each other making sure the other knew how enticed and in love we were with each other. We slowly pull away looking deeply into each others eyes more in love than ever.

"I would ask you to spend the night but it seems like it's been a girls day." He said as I nodded. "Yeah, it's been really fun. Next time okay?" I say as he smiles with a nod. "No problem, babe." He agreed understanding and then looking like he remembered something.

"Hey, did you hear about that guy on the news saying that he saw Ally Dawson at the exact mall you guys were at today?" He asked as I almost choke from being caught off guard but I smile trying to act surprised and clueless.

"No, that's crazy."

"Yeah, he claimed that she punched him and everything."

"What? That doesn't sound...accurate." I scoffed shaking my head trying to sound believable and I guess I did or he just wasn't paying much attention to my motions because he was nodding his head in agreement.

"I know, that just tells everyone he's a complete psycho so I don't trust his story." He said as I sighed in relief. "But he's like the fifth story that claimed to see her in Miami. It does make you wonder right?" He asked as my heart raced while my hands started to sweat. "No, not really. I don't think about that stuff. It's famous people stuff and I try not to worry about things that aren't in front of me...but you are in front of me." I say as he smiles leaning down and kissing me as I return it before pulling away.

"I'll see you tomorrow. I love you. Goodnight." I tell him as he lightly smacks my butt as I giggle. "I love you too. Night, beautiful." He says sweetly.

After kissing Austin goodbye for the night, I go back over to Cassidy's place seeing Cheryl and Carrie with water in their hands. "We put the rest of the girls upstairs to lie down." Cheryl told me. "Yeah, and we got them water so it could help lesson the hangover pain in the morning." Carrie added as I nodded. "That's great. I'll meet you guys up there in a second. I want some water too. My mouth is dry from all that delicious food we had at the mall earlier." I tell them as they nod going up the stairs.

I head into the kitchen getting a cup from the cabinet and pouring me some water from the refrigerator machine. I smile to myself when the song I wrote that me and the girls performed earlier, pun not intended, pops in my head and causes me to sway my hips and head to the side of the beat in my head as I start to sing it.

"And we play our favorite songs, and we scream out all night long, like ooh oh, when it's just me and my g-" I am cut off with slow clapping coming from behind me and I smile thinking it's one of the girls until my heart drops from the voice I hear causing me to turn around to face someone I haven't seen in so long. "Great, great show earlier...though I gotta admit...you sounded a little rusty." Raina motioned with her thumb and index finger as I am frozen in place from pure shock.
