Hey! :) I'm back with a new chapter. There's about 2 more chapters left, including this one. :) I'm really sad to see it end, but I did start another story. In case you haven't read it, it's called He Saved Her, She Saved Him. :) Go read it if you haven't already. Also, I wrote a one-shot a while ago. It's called More Than A Promise, and I would appreciate it if you would read it and possibly review. Enjoy! :)

Disclaimer: I don't own Austin and Ally. :)

A&A

Austin Moon was never one to get very excited about many things, but this? This was very different. As soon as his father said the words, "You may stay," he dashed out the front door, after saying thank you of course, and ran to Ally's house.

He reached her house, gasping for breath. Ally opened the door, planning to head to the store, only to find an exhausted Austin trying to catch his breath. He saw her and straightened up before smiling brightly and pulling her in for a very tight hug.

Ally, although confused, hugged him back only to have him pick her up and spin her around. Ally laughed and playfully told him to put her down. Austin did and smiled adorably before kissing her quickly.

"That's a big thank you from me," he said once he had pulled away. Ally blushed and looked down. She looked back up, smiled widely, and kissed him.

"And that's a 'you're welcome' from me. Even though I have no idea for what, I just wanted to kiss you," she whispered. Austin laughed and brought her into his arms before sitting themselves on the front steps.

"So what were you saying thank you for?" Ally asked as she wrapped her arms around his neck.

"Because Ally! I get to stay!" he exclaimed. Ally's eyes widened.

"Really, Austin? You're not messing with me are you?" she asked suspiciously. Austin shook his head and opened his arms up for a hug. Ally smiled widely and hugged him tightly.

"I'm so happy you're staying here," Ally whispered into his chest. Austin hugged her tighter in response.

He would never have spoken to his father again if he had made him leave all of this behind. Especially his Ally. And her hugs and kisses, of course.

A&A

"Okay, Austin, remember, if you need anything just call me. Mom, please take good care of him," Mike said as he gave Grandma Ruth a knowing look. She nodded while smiling and hugged him.

"Have a safe trip, Mike. I'll watch after him. He'll be fine. Trust me," she reassured and Austin hugged Mike goodbye.

"Bye, dad. Thank you for letting me stay," he whispered gratefully. Mike nodded and sighed.

"Your mother is not going to be too happy, but I think she'll understand. I hope this is what you really want, Austin," Mike said doubtfully. Austin nodded surely and smiled widely at him. Grandma Ruth gave Mike a look and Mike sighed in defeat.

"Fine. My plane is about to board so I've gotta go. Stay safe, you two." Austin and Grandma Ruth smiled and waved at him as he left. Austin was feeling sad that he wouldn't see his parents, but he would visit them. He wanted to spend time with Grandma Ruth since he had missed out so much in the past years.

He was happier than ever.

A&A

It had been a few days since Mike left back for Boston, and everything was back to normal in Miami.

"Mornin', Grandma Ruth," Austin greeted as he plopped down on the kitchen stool. Grandma Ruth smiled and turned around to see Austin smiling dreamily. She rolled her eyes playfully because she knew that he was just thinking about Ally. That boy was so in love and he didn't even know it. Or did he?

"Austin, honey, how are you and Ally doing?" Grandma Ruth asked as she sat down across from him. He smiled at her and scoffed.

"We're doing fine, why?" he asked curiously. Grandma Ruth shook her head and smiled at him.

"Do you remember your grandpa?" she asked suddenly. Austin straightened up and thought for a second or two. Then he smiled and nodded enthusiastically. Grandma Ruth smiled at him and nodded.

"Well, the way that you think about Ally is the same way your grandpa said he thought about me. He used to look at me the same way you look at Ally. You probably think that this is just a relationship and you'll break up eventually, but I don't think so. I think you're meant to be, Austin," she said seriously. Austin smiled brightly and bit his lip.

"Grandma Ruth? Do you think she thinks of me like I think of her?" Austin asked as he smiled just thinking about it. Grandma Ruth rolled her eyes and scoffed.

"Honey, I know she does. Because the way she looks at you is how I looked at your grandpa. You know, you're lucky, my parents didn't really get along with your grandpa because he wasn't like most guys at that time. He told me that he never loved anyone until he met me. We ended up running away when I was 18. We got married, settled down, had kids. We made it through all of that. When he passed away a few years ago I was so sad, empty, and alone," she stopped as she explained to him how she felt.

Austin smiled sadly and held her hand.

"That's why I was so happy when I found out your parents were sending you here even if it was for a bad reason. Sure, I had Ally, Trish, Dustin, and Dez, but I was happy to have family over. I hadn't seen you in forever, so I was excited. But then I saw just how..well, y'know, obnoxious you were," she said before laughing lightly.

Austin laughed and shook his head.

"Yeah, I'm sorry I was like that. I'm just glad that everything is different now. Uhh, can you help me set up a date for Ally? With everything going on, we haven't really hung out that much. I wanna do something special for her," he said as he blushed. Grandma Ruth smiled and nodded.

"I can definitely help with that."

KILL. ME. NOW.

I am extremely sorry for the crappy chapter, but I am so stressed right now. I've been feeling down so I thought typing a new chapter would help, but it didn't. I feel as bad as I did when I started.
This is definitely not something I am proud of. At all.
Honestly, I won't ask you to review because I don't deserve it for this chapter.

There is 1 chapter left, and I have the idea for that. I just couldn't get it into this one because it'd be too rushed. I promise I will get to writing it as soon as I am done putting this one up. I'll have it up soon. :)

Once again, sorry for the horrible thing that this is. :(
