HELLO! Surprised? Yeah, I decided to update sooner because I made y'all wait last time. Okay, so a few of you didn't like the last chapter. But see I have this thing where I don't like the villain be a real villain. I mean everyone does stuff they regret. So I want you to get into the mind of someone who wants to make things right.

But if you still don't like it no worries this chapter is ALL Austin and Ally's POV. I hope you like it.

Chapter 6

The reave of the engine grew more intense as Austin's rage began to take over. He knew before he ever met Blake he would hate him but this, this was something he never expected…pure rage mixed with jealousy.

There he finally admitted it to himself. He was jealous of this douche bag Blake because Austin knew he had the one thing that he wanted, needed more than anything, Ally's heart.

This revelation had started to form when Ally told him the story of her first love, but it wasn't until he was face to face with the jerk who broke her heart did he finally come to terms with the fact that he indeed was in love with his best friend.

Austin saw in the brief exchange between the two former lovers that there was still a flame felt for both of them. His heart sank as he relived the moment in his mind once again.

"Austin…You're driving really fast I think that maybe you should slow down." Ally said concern was very prevalent in her voice.

This caused Austin to loosen the death grip he didn't realize he had on the steering-wheel. His face softened at her plea as they approached a stoplight and came to a full stop.

He looked to his right where big brown eyes full of concern and worry met his. The irony of the situation wasn't lost on Austin not by a long shot. He was the one who should be concerned about her and yet there she was caring about him above herself. A small smile broke through his eyes. 'One of the many things I love about her.'

"I'm sorry; I didn't realize I was driving so fast. I guess I just wanted to get out of there as fast as possible." He told her and hoped she couldn't see passed the surface to the truth. He was not ready to try and explain away his jealousy.

Ally just nodded she understood the sentiment. She looked back at the red light wordless as she bit her bottom lip thoughtfully.

Blake was back, there was no way around it. She had finally come face to face with him and she knew it was only a matter of time before she would have to talk to him. Just being near him was hard for her she had no idea how she would find the words to reiterate her feelings about him.

Lost in their own thoughts, Austin tried to figure out how to tell Ally how he felt about her without losing their friendship in the process; while Ally stared out the window consumed by memories of Blake. A stony silent fell between the two in the red sports car.

Austin had not planned on a destination; in fact the blond had no clue where they would end up as the two drove through the sun drenched city. Then he realized where his autopilot had led them.

It was a remote beach on the southern outskirts of Miami. Hardly anyone ever went there; it was his getaway he had discovered the previous summer.

He only went there when he needed to think and never told anyone about it, not even Ally. It was a kind of sanctuary for him; a place where he could think and dream while he put the pieces of his life together in his mind.

He got out of the car and walked quietly down the water's edge. The sun hung high in the sky it shone upon the Atlantic Ocean which made the water looked like a million crystals that symmetrically floated in a never-ending dance.

Austin took off his sunglasses, deep in thought he squinted from the glare of the bright sun. He was so consumed with his thoughts that he forgot for a moment wasn't alone.

Ally watched him in wonder; she had never seen him like this. She was worried to say the least but at the same time it made her smile to see how much he really cared. She knew he cared about her he'd done so much for her over the years but at that moment she felt…loved.

She solemnly made her way to his side. His gaze turned to her once she was by his side. He examined by her profile the sun eliminated her fair skin as a slight smile played on his lips.

A cell phone ping rang out and broke the silence between the two. Austin pulled out his phone and Ally looked at him.

From Sasha:

To: Me

Hey, babe! Do you want to go to lunch?

Austin clinched his jaw he had almost forgotten he even had a girlfriend. He knew that was horrible but it was true. She made everything so much worse. How would he break up with Sasha without her knowing why…?

He texted her back and said that he couldn't but made plans for dinner that night. Austin in an instant made the decision to break up with her sooner rather than later. If he prolonged the relationship it wouldn't fair to Sasha or himself. She replied agreeing then shoved his phone back in his pocket.

"Sasha?" Ally said, this took Austin off guard and despite of himself he blushed.

He squirmed under her stare; he felt like he was caught with another woman. He knew that was silly but he couldn't escape his heart.

Austin searched his mind for words as panic took over; though one look into those big brown eyes brought him back to himself.

"Oh yeah." He breathed. "She wanted to go to lunch but I said had other plans."

"You didn't have to do that you know?" Ally said while she examined her feet.

Austin was shocked by this. Ally was always more important to him than anyone even before his new revelation. She should've known that. He moved closer to her and firmly grabbed her shoulders to capture her attention. "Yes, I did. You're my priority. You know that, right?"

Ally smiled at his confirmation of friendship; she nodded then turned back to the ocean that shone like diamonds; it took her breath away.

Austin instinctively wrapped an arm around her shoulders comfortingly. She laid her head on to his chest, Ally was so thankful that she had him. She knew she couldn't get through this without him.

She took her phone out of her tote-bag and checked the time. She sighed at the fact she only had five minutes till she had to be back at work. She had a gut feeling that Blake would be there and she wasn't ready to talk to him.

Austin heard her sigh and took notice. "What's wrong?" He asked and hoped that she would tell him.

"I have to go back to work and I just know he's gonna be there waiting for me." Ally explained pulling away from Austin and began to pace in worry.

Austin watched her pace; his eyes followed her every step. He reached forward and stopped her. "Hey, calm down Ally. I got this." He said his cocky over confidence shone through.

He whipped out his phone and found a number and pressed a call. "Hey, Mr. Dawson, it's Austin. Um… It's Ally she's not feeling well."

Austin paused and then said, "No! I mean no she'll be okay. I'll take her home and stay with her till you get back. It's no trouble. Okay, alright bye sir."

Very proud of himself Austin ended the call and looked at Ally his smile was bright and cheesy just the way Ally liked it; though she would never admit it. "See everything is cool now. You're off the hook."

Ally looked as if she was about to protest but stopped herself when she realized that it did kind of solve her problem.

"Thanks Austin. So I guess you're taking me home now?" She said. Her voice sounded very disappointed at this prospect.

"Well…" Austin responded coyly. "I could take you home now or we could go do something else…"

A grin spread across Ally's face at his suggestion. "What'd ya have in mind…?"
