Chapter 9

Hey guys. Don't give me hate for this chapter. I did what I had to do. I hope you like it. I don't own Austin and Ally.

Ally's P.O.V.

That night would be like no other night I have ever lived through. In that night I would live through confusion, frustration, true love and heart break. I never knew I could end up hurting myself so much, I didn't know what I should do. But in the end, I would never see him again.

"Wha… what?" I stutter, shocked at the question.

"Come back to Miami with me" he repeats.

"Austin… I don't… I…" I stutter, my breath getting faster and faster.

"It's perfect. We can go back home. Remember it Ally. How happy we were back there"

"That was 3 year ago. I have a life here"

"And you have a life back there. A better life" he says taking my hands and squeezing them tightly.

"But… what about my dad, my friends, Austin, I'm going to university after the summer"

"But think of what we could do Ally. You and me, together, like we always wanted, like we always dreamed of"

"Ally" Amy interrupts. "Do you love him? I mean really love him?"

"Yes" I say, tears filling in my eyes. "I love him with my whole heart"

"Then go, go with him. If you really love him, then you will want this future with him. We'll still keep in touch" she smiles. I take a deep breath and look back at Austin, looking into his eyes.

"Lets do it" I say. His face lighting up as I do. "Lets go home" I smile, wrapping my arms around him and hugging him tightly. After a second, he leans out of the hug and his lips press hard against mine.

"Go home. Pack. Call us when you get there safely" Rosie smiles, tears in her eyes as well. I hug them both before saying goodbye as me and Austin climb into a cab close by. All of us crying as the cab drives off into the night.

When we reach my house, I unlock the door very quietly and sneak inside, leaving Austin in the cab outside.

"Ally? Is that you?" whispers a voice as I start walking to my room.

"Yes" I whisper back, my dad appearing out of the kitchen.

"You back early"

"I wasn't really in the party mood"

"Ok, are you heading to bed?"

"Yea" I sigh. "Night dad, I love you" I say wrapping my arms around him and hugging him tightly. This might be the last time I see him. It takes all my might not to cry.

"I love you to Ally. Go get some sleep" he says as I walk into my bedroom. I close my door behind me, and wait until I can hear him gently snoring. I grab a suitcase from the top of my closet and start throwing in clothes. Jeans, shorts, vests, jumpers. I start to zip it up before I notice the pictures on my wall. All the pictures of me, Rosie, Amy, Tommy and Eddie. I snatch a few from the wall and stuff them in my bag. I cant forget this life that easy. I change out of my dress and into some black jeans and a dark pink hoodie, sneakers on my feet. As quietly as I can, I carry my suitcase downstairs, remembering to close my bedroom door as I leave. I carry my bag outside and Austin puts it in the cab's trunk while I lock the door.

Tears start streaming down my eyes as I walk away from my home. The place where I have lived for 3 years and has changed my whole life, which I'm now leaving to go back to my old one. I climb in the cab where Austin is now waiting.

"Don't cry Ally" he says wiping my tears away. "This is what we always dreamed of" he smiles. I try to smile back, but I cant stop crying. "Airport please" Austin says to the cab driver. I cry even more as we drive away from my dad, and my friends. Saying goodbye to the life I have been living for the past 3 years. I rest my head on Austin's shoulders and fall asleep pretty soon.

"Ally, wake up. Were here" Austin's voice says excitedly, gently shaking my shoulder. I slowly open my eyes while Austin climbs out of the cab to grab my suitcase. It takes me a while to adjust, but I soon get out of the cab. Austin pays the cab drive and smiles as he offers me his hand. I gently slip my hand in his and we walk inside the airport, to the counter where a girl is standing.

"When's your next flight to Miami?" Austin asks, his hand squeezing mine tightly. The woman at the desk fiddles with the computer for a few seconds before answering.

"The net flight will be in 15 minutes, and your in luck. Two seats left"

"We'll take them" Austin smiles. I just stand there in silence, still unsure on what I'm actually doing. I'm leaving my home, the place where I had my future set out, to go to Miami. Is this really what I want? I don't want to leave London, but I don't want to leave Austin. How can I leave Austin, he's been my true love ever since I was 15, I cant let go of him. But how can I leave London, when I was so happy with my life.

Austin pays for the tickets and we quickly rush to the gate. The gate would open soon, so we sat down at the bench closest to it. Staring out of the window which was shining bright with all the lights of London. I look everywhere. Soaking it all up, memorising everything I'm leaving behind.

Rosie, Amy and Tommy. The people who have been my best friends ever since I left Miami. Who have looked after me and helped me through everything. Then there's Eddie, who was my best friend, who for a second, I thought I loved. Then there's my future. The future I could have had here. Gone to the university, got an amazing job, something I had always dreamed off. And my dad. My dad has been everything to me ever since my mom died, he's looked after me and cheered me up everyday of my life. He's made me who I am, and helped me every step of the way. I cant leave my dad, without me he has nothing. We've always looked out for each other, how will he react when he finds out I've gone, left to be with Austin. My heart breaks at the thought that I'm breaking his.

"Gate 2 for the flight to Miami is now open" I hear the voice say through the speakers. Austin stands up, offering me his hand again, I freeze. My eyes still fixed out of the window, letting my life flash before my eyes. Thinking of everything, everybody I will leave behind if I leave. How can I do that?

"Ally. The gates open. We can go home" he smiles. I finally move my head and look up to face him. My eyes start watering again as I look at him. Austin Moon, my Austin Moon, my Austy. My first ever love. The guy who changed my life, the guy I was engaged to. Who came back for me. But could I leave everything to be with him.

"Austin…I cant leave" I say, my breath heavy, my eyes watering.

"Yes you can." he says, sitting down next to me, taking my hand and squeezing it tightly.

"No… I cant. I cant leave my life, not again."

"Ally, please. Lets get on the plane, lets go home" he says, tears springing in his eyes as well.

"But this is my home. This is my life. Those are my friends. And what about my dad? I cant say goodbye to him" I stutter. Realising what I had to do.

"Ally. I love you, please, just come with me"

"And I love you two. With my whole heart, I always have done, I always will do. But I cant leave"

"But what about us. What will happen with us?" he asks, a tear running down his cheek.

"You know how much I love you Austin. But I cant leave, I have my life here, my friends, my dad. I have my future here. Not in Miami"

"So I guess this is…"

"I guess this is goodbye" I stutter. My eyes stinging because of all the tears. I gently slip my hands from Austin's slipping off my ring. I hold Austin's hand out flat, gently placing the ring in his hand before closing it up. He clutches it tightly. "Goodbye Austy" I sigh, standing up and grabbing my bag.

"Goodbye Ally-Gator" he sighs, walking towards the gate. I start to walk towards the exit, so many tears running down my face. I turn around once more, at exactly the same time as Austin. We look into each others eyes for one more time. I take him all in. Kind brown eyes, his perfect bright blonde hair. I turn my head back around as he walks through the gate.

Years Later

"Mommy, did you ever see him again?" Danni asks as she sits on my lap.

"No honey. That was the last time I saw him" I admit. "He did live his dream though. He became a huge superstar, toured the world, sang at Times Square on New Years eve every year. He got married, to a girl named Kira. He got his happily ever after."

"And what did you do mommy?"

"I went to the school. Did what I was surpassed to do, and got my dream job. That's where I met your daddy" I smile.

"So you got your happily ever after as well?"

"I sure did" I smile at her. "Now, how about you and me go get some lunch?"

"Ok! Can we go to the Melody Diner?"

"Sure thing Danni, then how about we go to the beach?" now that I can actually bare it. I smile as I walk out of my house and into the Miami sunlight with my daughter.

The End
