Ally's P.O.V

"Trish this elevator is so fast!" I said as I smiled while we went up the elevator,

"I know this one makes ours look like a grandma" Trish said as the elevator stopped and we heard a thump against the wall?

"I wonder what that was?" I asked as Trish shrugged as the doors opened. We walked out as I saw two men walking towards us and then there was a body against the wall at the end of the hallway.

"That's her" One of the guys says pointing at me as my eyes went big before I looked at Trish who seemed to read my mind and my mind was screaming, run! With that we took off down the hall, Trish began to call for help as we passed the guys who tried to grab me I ran around them and we began to get closer and closer to the body, when I stopped and gasped. "Austin!" I yelled before Trish grabbed my arm and dragged me towards his door where we began to knock loudly.

"Dez open up!" Trish yelled as I looked behind us to see the men making their way towards us, "Dez!" I yelled while pounding on the door, yet nothing. This is it. I then felt pain as I felt myself getting jerked away from the door, I then saw one of them men holding my wrist "get your pathetic hands off of me" I said trying to stop my voice from shaking.

The guy just smirked before I then saw Dez and a security guard running towards us,

"next time you're not getting away" the guy said into my eat before they took off. Next time? NEXT TIME? What? My thoughts were running around in my brain bumping into each other trying to figure this out.

"Trish! Ally!" Dez said giving us a hug as I returned it while I looked over Dez's shoulder and gasped as I saw Austin's body on the ground.

"Oh my gosh! You guys Austin" I said as I pushed myself off of Dez and knelt down to his body, I put my head to his chest and sighed in relief.

"His just unconscious" I said as Dez nodded before he helped me get Austin into their apartment. Dez then took him to the couch as I sighed looking down at his swollen and cut up body,

"what happened to him? Also Dez" I said whipping my head to look at Dez who had the freezer open and sighed "man! We only have frozen peas! We need to go to the store for more ice plus some benadryl cause he's gonna be sore" Dez said as I nodded and Trish grabbed her purse before I ran and stopped them.

"Dez you are Austin's best friend you have to know why those guys were after him" Dez said as he sighed.

"Listen Ally I honestly don't know the answer to that one. I just-you need to ask Austin alright? Now we need to leave so we can get back before he wakes up" Dez said as Trish and him walked out the door. I sighed as I shut the door behind them and pulled up a chair next to Austin who was lying down on the couch. I then got up and began to fill a cup of water when I heard someo-Austin moan.

"Damn" Austin muttered as I almost ran over to him while almost spilling the water on myself. "Hey" I said as I sat back down on the chair and placed the water on the table next to Austin. "Hey" Austin said looking up at me as I smiled at him.

"What happened to you?" I asked as Austin sighed as he tried to get up before he winced. "Don't even try" I said smiling at Austin as I lightly placed my hand on his stomach pushing him back down.

"I um I fell over, a lot. Once in the elevator, um also on my way down the ha-" Austin began to say as I laughed rolling my eyes as I cut him off my rolling his shirt up, while I tried not to stare at his abs. It was kinda hard. I then winced as I saw the bruises on his oh so beatiufl abs wihle I set the bag of frozen peas on them.

"First off Dez and Trish went to go get some more ice to help with the swelling plus some benadryl. Second, you didn't fall over you and I both know that. I saw those guys Austin, I actually ended up running from them" I said smirking a little while Austin's smile dropped as he looked me over.

"They didn't get you did they?" Austin asked me as I laughed awkwardly. "Whatt? No way homie I'm still here aren't I?" I said as I inwardly groaned at myself while Austin chuckled, "Dawson be honest here" Austin said while I sighed.

"Okay well he grabbed my wrist and well left said something about a next time" I said as Austin rolled my sleeve up to relieve a large bruise on my wrist.

"Damn it" Austin said while I raised an eyebrow at him.

"What?" I asked while Austin shook his head "I shouldn't of let them touch you, I mean you and Trish-I um" Austin said as I laughed "it's okay to care just a tad Austin" I said while Austin smirked sticking his tongue out at me.

"So please just tell me what those guys are doing here with you? You didn't do anything right?" I asked while Austin rubbed his eyes.

"I don't even know, honestly. I mean I-um-it's just that wait, here" Austin said taking the frozen well now wet peas off his stomach and onto my wrist. I smiled as I looked down at the peas before I looked at Austin.

"You know it's okay, you don't have to tell me yet" I said as I yelled at myself for saying that. He's already in so much pain physically I don't want to push it.

"I um alright but are you alright?" Austin asked while I smiled.

"I"m fine Austin I promise nothing a good band aid can't fix!" I said as Austin laughed.

"Come sit I know that chair isn't comfy" Austin said as he moved his feet so I could sit at the end of the couch.

"Thanks! So are you excited to see me break out my best moves on Friday?" I asked as Austin laughed.

"Oh yes Dawson I am trying to picture these how about a demo?" Austin asked while I blushed.

"Oh why don't we let it be a surprise?" I said as Austin frowned at me.

"Come on please Dawson! I just got beat up! Make me smile a little! Plus I somewhat remember the club and it seemed like you had no issues grinding yourself into Dallas" Austin said as I blushed even harder.

"Hey I didn't even try! My hips were just you know doing there own weird thing" I said as Austin chuckled "well then you're hips don't lie" Austin said winking at me as I rolled my eyes at him hitting his shoulder as he winced.

"Oh right! You're hurt! Sorry!" I said as Austin laughed while I rubbed his arm, Austin then stopped laughing as he looked down at my hand which just layed there on his arm. I then looked up and saw Austin smirking at me as I opened my mouth before the door swung open and I jumped up off the couch while Austin put his legs out on the couch.

"Hey! You're awake!" Dez said smiling as he looked at Austin before I walked over to the kitchen where Trish was setting down the ice meanwhile Dez walked over to Austin and began to talk to him.

"So what's with you jumpy?" Trish asked as we put ice into a few bags while I gasped.

"Why would you call me jumpy?" I asked as Trish laughed rolling her eyes at me "of please! I walked in first not Dez and I saw you bounce off that couch. So did you two make out or something?" Trish asked as I put a hand over her mouth as I saw out of the corner of my eye Austin look our way.

"Trish! No! Gosh! I just um" I began as I thought over why I got off the couch so quickly. It wasn't like we were doing anything bad yet I jumped up like I light the couch on fire.

"I wanted to make sure there was room for all of us!" I said as Trish smirked before handing me the ice packs.

"Sure Ally just keep telling yourself that" Trish said as I laughed "Trish I don't like him" I said which made Trish turn around and smirk at me.

"I never said anything about liking him" Trish said as she winked at me before we walked over to the guys while I was still trying out to figure out what she meant. "Alright Moon take off your shirt" Trish said as I smiled while Austin sighed.

"Do I have to?" Austin asked while Trish sighed "I guess if you just want to be in pain all night fine with me" Trish said as she began to walk away before Austin groaned and threw his shirt off and the floor became very exciting all the sudden.

"Thank you" Trish said as she placed on pack on his biceps and the other back on his abs. I walked over to him and looked out the window as I placed one pack down, then I looked at the blank tv as I set the second one down.

"What afraid you won't be able to stop staring?" Austin asked me as I wiped my head and looked at him.

"I so can" I said as I looked down at his oh so amazing body before practically pulling my head away towards his face.

"See" I said smirking at Austin before I sat down,

"I'm going to order us some food okay?" Dez said as I nodded.

"Get some pancakes!" Austin said as I laughed "fine but only because you're well hurt" Dez said as Austin smiled.

"Yes!" Austin said as I laughed even harder "you are such a child" I said while Austin stuck his tongue out at me. I then felt my pocket buzz as I grabbed my phone and walked into a free bedroom as I slid my finger across the screen to have Dallas's voice on the other end.

(Ally-Bold, Dallas-Italics)

Hello?
Hey babe are you doing anything tonight?
I am actually! I'm sorry! We can hang out tomorrow night though!

Oh. Alright, um so what are you doing right now?
Oh well um I'm over at Aust-

Oh great.

Hey! How about you let me finish my sentence!
Fine.

I was saying I'm over here because he got into an accident.

Oh that's not good, what happened?
He got beat u-

Finally! I'm sick of you getting beat up instead of him!
Dallas!

What?

Just ugh. You're really pushing my buttons right now. I'll see you tomorrow okay?
I was just kidding around Ally, I'm sorry.

Yeah I know but I wasn't. I'll talk to you tomorrow.

With that I hung up my phone and sighed as I sat down on the bed and rubbed my head with my hand. Had he always been this rude? Did I just never notice? You only really notice these kind of things when you're-

"Dawson what are you doing in my room?" Austin asked as he stood against the doorway.

"Oh I am sorry I didn't realize" I said looking around to see it was a little messy but not too bad. The bed was actually quite large and covered in a dark grey blanket. There was a desk and a couple lights around the room, it was very simple yet to my eyes it looked like a playground worth exploring. I was snapped out of my thoughts as I heard Austin chuckling "it's okay, I mean I usually have to bring the girl to my room first but you just found it on your own" Austin said as I rolled my eyes at him.

"If I could I would hit you right now" I said as Austin laughed.

"Sorry I had to! Who was on the phone?" Austin asked as he sat down next to me.

"Dallas" I said sighing as Austin nodded not saying anything.

"I know you don't like him" I said as Austin gasped,

"what? I love that bastard!" Austin said while I laughed at him.

"Oh sure no it's fine. I don't know everything right now with him is just up in the air it's like when we first started dating yet it's all a whole lot clearer" I said as Austin nodded.

"Does that even make sense?" I asked while Austin nodded "as weird as it sounds yeah it does. I mean I haven't really been in a true relationship since high school since being a police officer kinda takes over your life but I get it" Austin said as I nodded before yawning.

"Man I'm tired" I said as I looked at Austin who patted his shoulder.

"You look tired, I got my own even if it was on accident I got a nap. Just close your eyes for a little and don't worry. I'm actually comfy" Austin said as I shrugged. I then set my head down on his shoulder and I didn't want to admit this but he was very comfy and now I really do want to nap yet I wasn't going to; because of my little argument going on in my head.

"You're eh" I said getting up as Austin laughed.

"Pancakes are here!" Dez yelled as I smiled.

"Come on child" I said as Austin scoffed "um excuse me?" Austin said as we walked into the kitchen and sat down.

"I said come on child?" I said as Austin rolled his eyes while we began to eat.

"I am not a child' Austin said while he took the whip cream and made a smiley face on his pancakes which made me laugh even harder.

We had all finished dinner and it was now ten o'clock and Dez and Trish went into his bedroom so I knew I was going home alone tonight.

"Alright I'll see you tomorrow Austin" I said as I opened the door while Austin walked out with me. "What are you doing?" I asked as Austin shrugged.

"Just you know going out on a late night stroll" Austin said as I shook my head,

"no way go back in there and rest up! Actually I don't want to even see you tomorrow at school! You need to rest! If you show up I won't talk to you" I said as Austin sighed before nodding.

"Fine I'll take the day off, even though I don't need it, mom." Austin said while I laughed.

"At least let me walk you to your car I don't know if those idiots are still here or not" Austin said which caused a chill to go down my spine.

"Yeah that might be a bit useful except you're kinda broke right now" I said as we got into the elevator and rode it down.

"Hey! I can still kick with" Austin said as he lifted his left leg and winced. "My right leg!" Austin said as he barely lifted his foot off the ground while we walked out of the elevator while I laughed.

We then walked to my car as I sighed "okay now go back inside before you catch a cold" I said as Austin smirked "aw you're so caring Dawson" Austin said while I scrunched my nose at him "don't get used to it Moon. Now I'll see you on Thursday" I said while Austin nodded before he walked away.

I then said "Austin" as Austin turned around I went up to him and wrapped my arms around his neck, Austin then responded by tightly wrapping his arms around my waist.

"Thanks again for um walking me" I said as I slowly pulled away before speed walking to my car. Idiot.

I was finally home and it was ten-thirty, I quickly got into my pjs and wrapped my arm before I got into bed annoyed at how my thoughts were getting fogged up by Austin Moon.
