Without further to do iiiiiiiiiiiiit's chapter 5
I don't own Austin&Ally
Chapter 5 – You Are My Reality {17-18 Weeks Pregnant}
-{Austin}-
I lay awake on my bed next to a snoring Ally. My house is very small so Ally and I are crammed into my bedroom. Ally has taken over the room, her clothes bulge out of my closet, piles of shoes scatter all over the red carpet, make up and miscellaneous beauty products tower over my stack of CDs on the dresser burying my possessions along with my manhood, even my bed cover has changed from electric guitars to some kind of red and yellow floral design. Although I feel my space has been well and truly invaded I haven't ever been as happy as I am since Ally moved in. I can't believe how lucky I am to be the one who rolls over each morning and gets to see Allys beautiful face, the one who gets to hold her when she has a bad dream, the one who gets to kiss her good night. Of course my parents were sceptical when Ally first moved in making me sleep on the couch, but they trust us, and the fact that Allys pregnant softened my parents' thoughts, they know I truly love her and would never take advantage.
Ally's still sleeping. I quietly slowly reach for my phone as not to wake her. I wince as my phone makes a sudden noise as I unlock it, I look over Ally stirs a little but remains fast asleep, I breathe out with relief. I googled the cost of raising a child, panic shocked though my veins, and dug into my sole. I already love this child with my whole heart I will do everything in my power to give him or her the best life possible, to do this I need to give up school, give up my music career and get a full time job. Allys unemployed and we can't parasite of my parents for the rest of my life, and the money from my short lived album won't last forever, we need money for our child, and we need it now.
"Austin?" Ally said half asleep rolling over and resting her head on my chest, I stoked her hair "Morning beautiful"
/
"WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOUR QUITTING EVERYTHING?!" Ally screamed at me her small face glowing with rage, her stomach bulging under her baggy sweater, arms franticly waving around.
"Als, calm down. It's ok. I need to get a full time job to support you and the baby; we can't do this without a full income." I explained trying to get Ally to relax.
Ally collapsed on the bed her hands gently resting on her swollen stomach.
"Austin, I can't, I won't let you give up on your dream!" She said lifting herself up to her feet pacing the bedroom.
"Als, music may be my dream, but you are my reality and I care so much more your you and this little one more than anything else on this small planet" I said rubbing her stomach and looking directly into her stubborn eyes.
Ally broke my glance turning her head I knew she was fighting the urge to agree with me.
"No, Austin. I'm not going to ruin your life take away your ambition, and bulldoze your dreams because of a mistake I made." Ally said her eyes dripping in quilt and concern her necklace running in and out of her slender fingers "Pursue music Austin, stay in school" Ally begged.
"Ally. This wasn't your mistake" I said rubbing her arm gently "This is our mistake. We are just as responsible as each other. I love this child with every ounce of my being" I explained placing my hand on her stomach. "There is nothing, and I mean nothing that I wouldn't give up to give this little one the best life possible, this is just one of those things"
"Austin. Get a job, give up school if you want, get a part time job, but promise me. Promise me, you won't give up on music, please Austin, music is your destiny, it's your dream and you can't give up." Ally begged, thumping me on the chest.
"I promise."
-{Ally}-
"Eugh Trrrish! Nothing fits" I moaned to my best friend sitting on the end of Austin's bed as I threw clothes all over the room like a maniac.
"Come on Ally I think its well and truly time for you to by some maternity clothes" Trish said eyeing up my pregnancy bump; it really is getting large for 17 weeks.
"I have no money" I whined feeling like an annoying child throwing a tantrum and stomping my feet.
"Als," Trish held my shoulders and looked me in the eye "Snap out of it" She snapped her fingers in my face.
"I have money, and you have a birthday coming up, and if a best friend can't get her best friend some clothes for her birthday when said best friend obviously need new clothes, and her birthday is coming up, then what kind of best friend would that be?" Trish explained at the speed of light.
"Umm, I think I understand" I said laughing I missed hanging out with Trish, but since moving in with Austin everything has been a bit crazy.
/
"Now Ally, this is caaa-uuute! And totally you!" Trish exclaimed excitedly holding up a pink zebra print top with a lose middle for a pregnancy bump.
"No" I chuckled "That's totally you! Come on I want to try on these" I said carrying a mountain high pile of clothes hanging over my left arm.
"Okaaaay" Trish dragged on with disappointment as I forcibly yanked her with my free arm to the tall changing rooms at the back of the maternity store.
Wow I thought to myself staring at the mirror. These jeans are unbelievably comfortable. I pinged the stretchy elastic band that sat just above my belly button. I turned and checked myself out, I looked good I don't know why I was so apprehensive about wearing maternity clothes they look really good. Maybe it's just coming to terms with the whole pregnancy thing, I've had the tests, and the ultrasounds, the fights, the tears but it's only now that I truly look pregnant. I look down at my stomach it's become a handy arm rest over these last few weeks, I'm not huge but I'm not small either and I'm only gonna get bigger from here.
"Woah" I called out losing my balance interrupting me from my train of thought.
"Ally? Are you ok? Can I come in? I heard a crash" Trish asked deep concern in her voice franticly knocking on the changing room door.
"I'm fine, really, just a bit dizzy" I opened the door letting Trish in to the cubical. "have been getting some dizzy spells these last few days, its nothing"
"You don't look fine, maybe you should see a doctor" Trish said with a worried look on her face.
"Excuse me?" A pregnant blonde woman in her late twenties asked "I couldn't help but overhear for the next cubical, you're feeling dizzy are you in your fifth month?"
"Yes" I answered sitting on the small stool in the corner of the changing room the room spinning slightly.
"Don't stress about the dizziness sweetie" The woman smiled a warm smile "Your centre of gravity is shifting, it can cause dizziness. Usually it doesn't last very long but if it does take a rest. I know this is my second"
"Thanks, I actually feel fine now. I'm Ally and this is Trish" I smiled back at the kind woman.
"Jennifer, and I better be going I hope I helped" Jennifer left the maternity store. Jennifer only gave me a small tip but it was nice to talk to someone going though what I am. I love the support from Austin, Austin's parents, Trish and even Dez but I really wish I had someone that I can relate to, I really wish my mother was here. I wish she could give me some small words of wisdom, to help me though this. I stared at my shoes hoping Trish wouldn't notice that I was blinking back tears.
"Ally you're fine now?" I nodded forcing a smile with my lips "Good coz you look ah-mazing!"
I giggled at Trish but she was right these jeans look great and I love this red top and matching jacket, it makes my tiny pendent shine brightly above my fast growing breasts.
"Yeah I'm happy with it" I laughed "But god I could defiantly go for a pickle dipped in peanut butter and coated in jellybeans!" I moaned oh how I wanted that pickle
"Did somebody say they wanted a jelly bean, peanut butter pickle?" Dez exclaimed passing me the delicious looking pickle.
"Eww, Dez you just had that with you casually?" Trish screwed up her face with disgust "How did you know Ally would want that? How did you even know where we were?" Trish asked as I devoured the peanut butter, jellybean pickle.
"It's just one of my favourite snacks" Dez shrugged "Austin is out job hunting but I got bored he told me where you guys were so I came to see if you wanted to hang out"
Trish scowled at Dez, I laughed and thanked Dez for the pickle.
"Hey, if I change back into my clothes go buy these do you guys wanna go hang out at the food court I'm STARVING, and nothing would make me happier than eating a massive greasy cheeseburger and a side of cheese from cheese outta my league!"
-{Austin}-
"Hey guys!" I announced sitting between Dez and Ally at a circle metal table in the malls food court. "Guess what?"
"You brought me a platypus!" Dez jumped from his seat punching the air in excitement.
"No Dez" I laughed "I did not get you a platypus, why do you ask that every time someone says guess what?" I asked confused.
"Because one day it will be true" Dez shrugged and dug back into his fries.
"Annnnnyway" I turned to the others ignoring Dez "I got a job!"
"You did! Wow!" Ally jumped hugging me her bulging belly stuck in between us forbidding a close embrace. "That was fast! How did you find one so quick?" she asked.
"Jobs are surprisingly easy to get, Als" Trish nodded wiggling her eyebrows at Ally.
I laughed "Nah, the manager at 'Snow Globes R Us' is a big fan I walked in and she immediately gave me the job, I explained our situation and she gave me an awesome pay rise, and I haven't even started working yet" I exclaimed excitedly.
"Austin you can't use your music and our baby to get good jobs and undeserved pay rises" Ally looked at me seriously, resting her arm gently on her baby bump.
"I know, Als, but I need to get the best job possible for this little one." I explained in a soft sincere voice rubbing her stomach softly.
"Yeah, and I bet you get a pretty sweet discount on snow globes!" Dez jumped in excitement "Oooh I bet they have and awesome platypus one! Austin do you think you could get me one?" Dez asked a wide grin on his face. Ally and I laughed, Trish just rolled her eyes.
-{Ally)-
I back in doctors' chair, Austin beaming with pride at my side as Dr Stevens shows us our baby on the screen. It doesn't seem like that long ago that I was laying here in this exact same spot stressing about the sound of my babies heart beat, yet it also seems like a million years ago so much has happened since my first ultra sound. I grinned at Austin, I feel so comfortable in the doctors chair now. Our babies so much bigger than it was last time it's not so much a blob but a actual little baby, with a large head and tiny little fingers. I blinked back tears as we heard the heart beat again it was so beautiful, but I didn't want to cry, crying is for being sad I'm not sad I couldn't be happier. I look up to Austin his eyes are glistening, he's trying not to cry too!
"Ally, you have a very healthy baby at 18 weeks. Do you guys want to know the sex of your baby" Dr Stevens asked grinning at me and Austin from behind her small dark framed glasses.
"YES" I practically screamed
"No" Austin said at the same time as me.
"Oh I mean no" I said "I mean Yes" Austin said simultaneously to me.
"Yes" "No" we added quickly.
I laughed and looked up to Austin, "Do you want to know?" I asked biting my lower lip slightly hoping and begging from the centre of my sole that he says yes.
"Yes! Of course!" Austin answered chuckling slightly.
"Doctor Stevens, we really want to know" I grinned at the doctor.
"If you look over here, you can see that this little baby... is a girl. Congratulations"
I felt tears crawl down my cheeks breaking free of my hold a wide smile plastered on my face wasn't going anywhere I certainly couldn't be happier.
"A daughter. I'm having a daughter. I'm going to be a dad" Austin quietly whispered. I looked up, tears had escaped him too.
