Ally (Pov)
I was walking in the backyard and saw some flowers in the shade. So, I told the gardener to put the plant in the sunlight.
After some time, Austin came. He looked at the plants closely and called the gardener
Gardener: yes?
Austin: who put this here. They are shade loving plants man, am I crazy that I put them there.
Then I came
Austin: put it back where it was
He then looked at me
Austin: … ally who put this here?
I was scared of what was going to happen next that I lied without thinking
Ally: … I didn't see
He then went inside. I shouldn't have lied
Later that night
I came inside the bedroom as Austin was sitting in his chair relaxed. I walked to the window
Ally: at least close the window, mosquitos come inside (closing it)
Austin: what's wrong? You look upset since morning. What is it?
Ally: it's nothing
He shook his head
Austin: something did happen
I shook my head
Ally: no
Austin: are you sure?
I had to tell the truth. I can't keep it with me
I sat Infront of him
Ally: ...Austin. I wanted to say something... I lied to you before. You went to the studio and I put all the shade loving plants in the sunlight. I didn't know those plants were put in the shade. I don't know gardening at all. Which plants should be kept where and how. I don't know anything. I thought you put those plants there by mistake. So, I put them in the sunlight.
Austin: … so you were upset about this the whole time.
Ally: I don't lie. But you were so angry that I was scared to tell
He came close to me
Austin: and now you're not scared. Before you were. I can also be angry now
Ally: I still am scared. But I can't sleep when I lie. I know this is a small lie but lie is a lie right... my dad used to say. Telling lies are easy at first after that it's always hard. And saying the truth is hard at first after that it will always be easy.
He held both of my hands
Austin: I have never seen such a nice woman as you in my life. Always stay like this.
The next day
I got juice for Austin
Austin: you know Anne could've also gotten me juice or I could've gone to get it myself. But when you did, I feel so happy.
Ally: for just a small thing?
Austin: … maybe a person is a child inside. If someone does something good to them. It feels good. Like how yesterday I came home and you already pressed my cloths and made coffee for me. It felt nice.
Ally: but every wife does that for their husband. There was nothing special about it.
Austin: that's because it is not like you. They don't have a heart like yours … you know I feel so lucky to myself. That I got a wife like you
Ally: okay, I'm not that good. Drink your juice
Later at night
It was Brooke's birthday today and we were getting ready to go to her party
I was wearing a white dress. It was till my toes. I just like to go fancy yet simple. And I was wearing silver heels. And my hair was put in a braided bun.
Austin: how long will you take
Ally: I just got ready, by the way it's your best friend's birthday, I'm going to her for the first time (turned to see Austin standing in front of me) obviously it will take time to get ready.
He smiled
Austin: misses ally moon. Whatever you do, you still look beautiful.
This made me blush, so I looked down
Austin: ...so now that you blushed should we go?
We went to brook's
Brooke: finally, you guys came.
Austin and ally " happy birthday," said unison
As we gave her our present
Brooke: thank you, you guys. By the way you guys coming is my gift, and ally why don't you meet my friends.
Pulling me away from Austin
Brooke: guys, this is ally Dawson. Quite a movie type situation happened to her. In movies they show like '' this marriage cannot happen'' but mike said in gunpoint that this marriage will happen.
Person1: Brooke too much c'mon don't mind her talks. Anyways you look good, do you have to go to a wedding after this.
Ally: um no
They were asking so many questions that it went too far for me
Person2: do your parents live here?
Ally: no, they passed
Brooke: right when ally's mom was gonna passed, they got married. And her dad died long time ago. What did your dad do anyway ally?
Ally: he was a teacher
Brooke: was it from a government school?
Ally: yes. He was a good teacher
I looked to see Austin in a call looking at me
Person1: anyways, what are your hobbies?
I was gonna say but
Brooke: for now, she does house work stuff but I told her that Austin makes fun of girls who just stay in house all day. Something will definitely do anyway would you like to drink something? Oh, forget that why don't I show you, my house.
Pulling me to go upstairs. Austin looked worriedly at us
Brooke: I'm not taking your wife anywhere, just showing her around
I looked at him for a moment and so did he but Brooke was calling me so I had to go.
We were in the car going
Austin: what do you think. Should we go to the beach? we'll stay there for a while
This made me smile but then I frowned and this made Austin frowned too
Austin: what's wrong? Are you not in the mood?
Ally: no. just tired
Austin: then why are you so quiet? Where you bored in the party?
I shook my head
Ally: no. I'm just exhausted. When I sleep, I'll be fine
Austin: … you must be really good friends with Brooke. I was saw how much attention she was giving you
Ally: yes... Austin can I ask you something?
Austin: yeah ask
Ally: was I. overdressed. (Austin frowned again) I mean my dress an-
'' you were perfectly fine... but you looked so beautiful that I was scared that I was not that handsome''
I scoffed and smiled
Ally: now you're just saying that
Austin: I'm telling the truth ally. (He looked at my eyes deeply) truth.
And we were staring at each other smiling
The next day
I got a phone call
Brooke: hi ally. Were you sleeping?
Ally: no, I was not sleeping
Brooke: actually, I wanted to call to say thank you that you came to the party. And I love your gift is beautiful, I'll put that painting in my room
Ally: you liked it. I'm happy
Brooke: I'm meet you next time, bye
Each and every day goes by and me and Austin slowly like each and even started loving each other. We moved into a new house. I started loving Austin and when and how did it happen, I don't know. I just know that I love him with every step of the way. What he likes I take it and what he doesn't like I leave it
I was emailing to my best friend when Austin came and sat next to me smiling
Austin: what are you doing?
Ally: emailing a friend
Austin: and I bet in email you wrote about me. Did you write about my bad behaviors?
Ally: no but you're appreciation
Austin: example
Ally: example that you are so good, you're softspoken...
I looked at him and he looked at me
Austin: ...that's it? (I nodded) … and you didn't tell how much you love me. (I started blushing so I looked down) That whenever I do something you always stare at me and when I look at you, you can't look me in the eyes. like right now. (I then looked at Austin smiled) ...ally your happy right?
He looked deeply at me
Ally: I'm very happy
We both stared at each other
Austin: now ask me the same thing?
Where is he going with this.
Ally: ... are you happy Austin?
Austin: I'm so happy that happiness is such a small word to express it. You people first like each other than love each other than marry... and I married you. Then I liked you... and then I love you. Although I didn't want to marry you like how you didn't want to marry me. And now I'm so thankful. That I got you.
He held my hand, as we just stared at each other but both leaned in
Austin (Pov) The next day
I saw everything at the party and I wasn't going to let it slide
Austin: yes, Brooke what is it (using my mobile)
Brooke: are you mad at me?
I shook my head
Austin: no
Brooke: then why are you ignoring me. Austin, you know I'm outspoken and ally is now my friend and if I say something wron-
Austin: I know that ally doesn't know about latest fashion trend. She doesn't know which color is in or out. But however, she is, she is important to me. And please in the future be cautious. Don't say those stuff about her, cause her feelings are so hurt.
Brooke: … Austin. I really am sorry. If you want to then I can also say sorry to ally. But please don't make such a small thing into a big thing. I'll be careful next time I promise. And please leave the anger. I'll make it up to you. Okay
I nodded my head
Austin: okay, it's alright
Later at night
I was using the laptop
Ally: you're not listening to me right
I looked at her
Austin: I am
She closed my laptop and put it beside her
Ally: now please listen to me
I went closer to her
Austin: yes madam, tell
Ally: … I was thinking that a girl should never marry a workaholic. (I shook my head sarcastically) You always bring your work at home (I then nodded my head smiling)
Austin: my darling (in a British accent) you look good in every dress, like right now you look like a flower.
Ally: I'm talking serious and your still joking
She got up putting both her dresses on the bed and I got up to
Austin: so, when am I joking, I'm also very serious
She sat on the bed as I sat next to her
Ally: Austin I want to look good at the party
My smile slowly faded
Austin: ...since when did you start challenging others?
Ally: I'm not challenging anyone. I want to stand next to you and look goo-
Austin: you are fine. Did you really take what Brooke said in your heart, ally you don't need to look anything like Brooke. You look good the way you are because your heart is pure, you look good inside and out. You don't need to go on some fashion parade. Or you need jewels or clothes to look good. I love you the way you are (taking her hand) you are beautiful for me. And that's all that matters.
She was looking down couldn't look me in the eye
Ally: now you're making me nervous
I smiled and pulled her closer
Austin: and now?
She blushed
Austin: you know. You need to put a little makeup (said as a joke)
I chuckled as ally removed her hand and smiled
Austin: okay I didn't know eighteenth-century girls are so shy. And also blushes like that... ally? (She looked at me) you are very special to me. Very important to me. Never think of yourself less than anyone, or else I'll feel like my love is missing.
The next day
I have to visit to a friend of mine in china and ally was packing all my stuff. I leaned my back against the wardrobe as I see ally putting my clothes in the bag.
Ally: I put your white shirt in. Should I put another on?
Austin: you can
I took both of her hands
Austin: what should I bring for you
Ally: nothing. I already have everything
Austin: wow. My wife is so pure or else other wives have a shopping list. And you don't need anything
Ally: but I do have one request
Austin: yes say
Ally: come back soon. Before ten days
Austin: will you miss me
She nodded her head
Austin: okay
Ally gave me a ''really?'' look
Ally: and if you don't come then?
Austin: hmm? If I don't come... so marry another evil spirit
As I ran and ally ran after me
After few days
Ally: what is it
Austin: close your eyes
Ally: why so much suspense, you pulled me all the way here from the kitchen. What is it
Austin: just close your eyes
Ally: fine (eyes closed)
I held both her hands
Austin: now until I say don't open your eyes, okay?
Ally: okay... now should I open them
Austin: no, wait
I put a golden necklace around her and locked it and I pulled her to the mirror
Austin: now. Open your eyes
Ally: wow. thank you so much
Later at night
I got a call from mom
Mom: Austin please come. We need to take your father to the hospital
