So, I'm going to try to make this into an actual multi-chapter story, beacuse I love this couple, and I want to go with them on Kaylie's road to recovery, so here you are!

Disclaimer: I own nothing.

"Come on, Kaylie, do it for me."

Kaylie sat in her bed at the hospital, still not fully recovered, staring at a large piece of chocolate cheesecake on a tray in front of her. Austin was at her bedside, a place which he rarely vacated lately.

She locked eyes with the boy beside her, and then picked up her fork and took a bite, and then another, and then another, and kept going until the entire thing was gone and Kaylie was licking chocolate off of her lips. It wasn't the first time she'd eaten since the accident, but she was still getting comfortable with it. She paused for a moment, looking up from her plate she found Austin staring at her intently. Then he grinned a crooked little grin and suddenly he was kissing her.

Kaylie wasn't really sure how she and Austin had gotten where they were now, but she sure was glad they did, because she didn't know if she'd be able to get through this without him standing right there with her every step of the way. Kaylie didn't understand why Austin did stay with her through every step. She wasn't his type, and he wasn't hers. Austin was the party guy who dated the tall, pretty, blonde models and didn't give a rat's ass about anyone but himself, and she was the committed, headstrong gymnast, and yet here he was, with her, making sure that she made it through.

He pulled away and the sparkling blue eyes he pierced her with, turned all that cheesecake in Kaylie's stomach to butterflies, and she blurted out the one question that had been burning in her brain for the last week, "Why are you still here?"

This question caught Austin off-guard, but he responded with a smile, "Because, if I'm here, then I don't have to go to the Rock."

"Ha ha, you're very funny" Kaylie quipped, "really though, why do you stay here with me every minute? You have a life too, you don't have to drop everything for me, and besides, don't you have some partying to do?"

Austin took a deep, serious breath, "I wish I knew."

"How much longer until I get to leave?" Kaylie whined, she was getting extremely impatient just sitting around in bed all day and needed to get back to her training.

"You'll be released tomorrow, but remember what the doctor said, you've still gotta take it easy for a while even after you go home, no training for another week." Austin said.

"Ugghhh, I have to get back!" she complained.

"I know, babe, just be patient, and and I'll throw you a kick-ass 'Welcome Back' party, and an even better after party, if ya know what I mean." he told her, grinning cockily and wiggling his eyebrows suggestively.

Kaylie blushed and whacked him in the arm, "Shut up, Austin."

Their banter was interrupted as Kaylie's parents entered the room and asked to have a private word with her, thus shunning Austin to the hallway, where there was way too much space to think.

Although he would never admit it to anyone, he was terrified. Austin Tucker did not date gymnasts, but he found himself being drawn to her, and now, now he didn't know that the hell he felt for Kaylie Cruz, all he did know was that he had never felt this way about anyone in his entire life, and that's exactly what scared him the most.

Hope you liked it! Make me really happy and review please!
