(i love the things you do)

Many people assume that Austin is dating Ally because of her looks. Don't get him wrong, Ally was the most beautiful thing on this earth. He didn't think anyone like her existed until he met her.

But he wasn't with her because of how she looked or because of her strawberry scented hair. This was just what people thought, not what they knew.

The people who really knew him and them as a couple knew the real reason. He loves her because of the little, simple things she would do.


She was a true a nerd at heart. She may sing at concerts and have sold millions of albums, but she loved doing homework. She said that it soothed her and helped her when stressed. Nothing about that statement was normal.

She was beginning to give Dez ideas that she was an alien from another planet.

But since she was so smart homework was a breeze for her. What would take Austin about three hours, would take Ally about thirty minutes to complete.

Austin didn't say anything when Ally had asked to hang out with her on Friday. Although his gut feeling was telling him this wasn't going to be as fun as she made it sound.

It wasn't. He had gotten to her house to be greeted by Mr. Dawson. It wasn't that her father didn't like him. But lately since Austin had realized his romantic feelings for the girl he's been awkward around her father. So the conversation started with a "hello" and ended with "we're not having sexual relations, I swear!"

Luckily Ally had interrupted the horrifying conversation. Austin grabbed her hand and rushed to her room. But he made sure to leave the door open to not give her father any inappropriate ideas.

As soon as he had walked into the room, he wanted to run back out. He could barely even see her room. All he could see were papers, binders, and books. When she has asked to hangout this was not what he had in mine that they would be doing. Even cloud-watching would have been more fun than this.

"Ally," the boy whined as he exaggerated the "l" in her name, "if you were going to be doing homework the whole time, why'd you ask to hangout?"

"You have your definitions of fun and I have mine"

"So what am I supposed to the whole time then while you do homework?"

All the girl had to do was give him her all-time famous "pouts" and Austin shut up and didn't complain. He was wrapped around her fingers.

The last thing he wanted to be doing on Friday night was watching Ally do homework. That's what he'd tell his friends when they'd ask him why he didn't go to the biggest party of the year. That Ally had somehow managed to convince him to stay with her. But in reality he would spend everyday with her just watching her do homework.

The way she creased her forehead while trying to answer a complicated question. Or the way she would start to fall asleep midway through. Or maybe it was just the way she would look over at make sure he was still there. When she spotted him, she would just give him a smile and quickly look away.

Maybe one day he'd bring his homework too so they could have a real party (not really). But he would get to spend more time with her and that's the whole point.

They were taking a quick study break, which meant friendly cuddling. But then her father, at that moment, had decided to check up on them.


The way she played music intrigued him. The way she'd close her eyes while getting into it. The way her fingers somewhat memorized the keys of the piano.

Austin hadn't seen the girl all day and decided to visit her. Sure most people would probably call first or something. But he wasn't most people.

He went to her house first. But when he got there he was greeted by Mr. Dawson. Luckily before Austin could say anything stupid or something he'd regret, the father told him that Ally wasn't home and closed the door in his face. He had never been more relieved in his life that Ally wasn't home.

He then decided that Ally was most likely at the store so made a detour to the mall. When he got there he noticed that the "open" sign was covered by the "closed" sign. Again, any normal person would have went home but Austin wasn't normal; so he went inside the store. He was also not one to listen to the rules. Isn't that how he met Ally?

The store was empty. Not a person in sight. Austin could hear sound of music somewhere in the distance. He began looking around to find the source of it. He walked up the stairs and there he found the source of the music.

There she was sitting, playing the piano. She hadn't even seemed to notice Austin in the doorway. So he stood there, watching her as she kept playing.

After she finished playing, Austin clapped his hands in applause. It was amazing. It was so heartfelt and just so pure. She had turned around in shock but when he saw it was him she relaxed. He went to sit down next to her but he didn't notice the smile on her face her as he did.

"Keep playing," Austin spoke as their arms were rubbed next to each other.

"What?"

"Keep playing the piano. I love it when you play."

So she did. They spent the rest of the night together. Ally playing the piano while Austin listened. But eventually she fell asleep right onto his right shoulder. But the sound of her playing still rung in his head as he fell asleep right on top of her head.


One of the benefit to them now dating were the benefits. Like kissing, late night talks, cuddling, and the list could go on and on. But it amazed them both how normal everything between them still was.

Austin wasn't going to lie, he did love a good cuddle with his girlfriend. Most guys would probably say that cuddling was lame but he thought it was the best thing to ever be created.

They were at Austin's house after school. Since he and Ally had finished all his homework and he didn't complain at all, she said they could cuddle until dinner.

She was just so warm and cuddly. Although she wouldn't say it, she loved cuddling with him too. She would never give him the satisfaction because he was too cocky for his own good.

He especially loved it when she would start to fall asleep a little. Because when she did, she would start to rub her head against his chest as she would try to get more comfortable. Then her breathing would start to be more slower as she was being pulled into slumber. As soon as he knew she was asleep, he would begin to feel tired and fall asleep too. They just had that type of dynamic.

Just as his vision became blurred and his eyes close, his mom suddenly burst into the room. This caused the couple to wake up and sit up right. So apparently not only were friends "cockblocks" but so were family members.

"Mom! What're you doing?"

"Hey honey! I was just wondering if you two could do something for me?"

"No," the boy protested obviously cranky but stopped when his girlfriend elbowed him in his side.

"We'd love to Mrs. Moon. What is it?"

"Can you guys just jump on the bed?"

"Excuse me?" Ally asked as confused as Austin.

"Tell me if the bed passes the jump factor test with an eighty-three."

So the boy and girl got up and began jumping on the bed. Later on it was said that the bed didn't pass because it only had a sixty-three.


He did get to finish his cuddle with Ally later that night. But of course that got interrupted too when Dez came to visit them.

He hated being sick. It meant he wasn't allowed to hold Ally. Or at least he couldn't bring himself to be near her, in fear that he'd also get her sick.

She was too good to him. Sometimes he wonders how he got lucky enough to find her. She always seems to know just how to make him feel better.

Whenever he was sick she would cook for him. She would help him eat by spoon feeding him. She was going to be an amazing mom when she was older.

The only good thing about being sick, to Austin, was when he got headaches. The headaches weren't fun but what Ally would do to help was. He would never even tell her when his head hurt, she would just know.

She would cradle his head in her lap and stroke his hair. This would make him feel as if he wasn't even sick anymore. She was like his own personal does of medication.

Then when he'd wake up she'd be in their kitchen. In there, would be stacks and stacks of pancakes waiting for him. Well usually even if he wasn't sick, she would still be making pancakes for him.

He really hit the "girlfriend jackpot" when he met Ally. He always felt as if he was a jackpot winner whenever he was with her.


Most of the time her shortness was a disadvantage. Or for her at least. Austin loved the fact that she was so small and short.

Watching her trying so hard to reach for a plate or cup on the top shelf was very entertaining for him. It would become a lot more entertaining when her shirt would ride up and he could see some skin.

As he watched as she climbed onto the counter. His afternoon suddenly became very interesting.

"Need a lift?" this caused Ally to jump a little but luckily not enough to fall over.

"Shut up and help me reach that cup," this made Austin laugh because he knew she was smiling even though he couldn't see her.

So he gently grabbed her waist and helped her down from the counter. Without even needing to be on his tippy toes he grabbed the cup she was reaching for. He smirked as he handed it to her gawked face.

"Stop giving me that face," she said as she grabbed the cup out of his hand.

There was also this one time when Ally feeling very down. Austin wasn't sure what to do. So to bring her up he literally brought her up.

"Ah! Austin let me down. I'm not in the mood for this," she screamed as Austin gave her a piggyback ride.

After a while of struggling, Ally realized that Austin never listens so what was the use? So she just payed her head on top his head while he carried them the whole four miles home. But he didn't even break a sweat doing so.

He was always going to be there whenever she needed him.
