Disclaimer: I Do Not Own Austin and Ally :(

Recap:

"I would have never done anything like that without you. You taught me how to not back down and to stick up for myself and I just want to thank you for that." she said looking at me.

I know by the looks of her eyes she meant every word she said. I started to feel a little guilty though but tried to ignore everything else right now and just focus on Ally.

Just focus on her beautiful eyes, her strawberry scented hair, and her adorable smile that I always admired about her. I guess you could say this is why I loved her.

Wait! Did I just say love?! Shit!

For the rest of me and Ally's date we did almost every game she always wanted to do. I won her the prizes and everything but for some reason she kept acting like she wanted to tell me something important the entire time, but she couldn't get it out of her.

I was nearly scared at what could it be since she's having a hard time telling me this.

I mean, we were best friends and we are suppose to tell each other everything. Well, at least she tells me everything but I can't say the same thing for me.

I soon then dropped her off at home but she insisted that I didn't come in with her for some reason.

It was now the next day and I'm here sitting in my bed not knowing what she's trying to tell me, and more importantly what's wrong with me.

I wasn't even going to not go to school today. I couldn't face Dallas or Brooke knowing that I slipped in my mind those 4 letters that I would never even think about saying at first when I saw her...love.

It can't be possible that I've fallen in love with her.

It couldn't because Austin Moon never loves anyone and I mean, anyone.

And even if I did, I knew Ally would never love me back. Sure I can hope she has a crush on me but she would never say she loves me. I didn't even think I would say I loved her.

I couldn't keep this all to myself anymore. I had to tell someone, someone who understands what I'm going through because they've known me all my life. I grabbed my phone from my nightstand next to my bed as I dialed their number and on the first ring, they picks up.

"Austin?! Why are you calling me now? I'll be seeing you in like 2 hours!" Trish yelled over the phone at me.

"I don't think so Trish, I'm not going to school today." I said to her.

She didn't say anything for like 2 minutes.

"What do you mean you're not coming to school, are you okay?" she asked getting a little worried.

"Yeah I'm fine. Just having a hard time with a certain problem. Could you please come over here for a minute?" I asked her nicely.

"Fine! I'll be there!" she said hanging up.

She would have to know something about this considering she knows how to solve a lot of people's problems.

I soon waited about 5 minutes before I heard someone entering the door and coming up the stairs.

"Austin!" Trish yelled out for me in the hallway.

"I'm in here!" I said to her.

She then opens the door and looks at me worriedly.

"You want to tell me what's going on because around school people are now asking to sit next to Ally or talk to her or hang out with her." she said to me.

Wow, I guess someone from the carnival must have told the whole school about how Ally stood up to Brooke.

I was still astonished from it. Standing up to Brooke is something that nobody else could ever do all because they were scared.

"Oh, yesterday we went to carnival and she told Brooke off. Now I guess everyone loves her which means she'll have a lot of votes from everyone by the time prom comes." I said sitting up in my bed.

"Okay what is with you, Dallas, and Dez talking about prom votes for Ally?" she asked sitting on the edge of my bed.

There was no way I was telling her this little settlement we were having.

I'm not going to blurt anything out this time because the last time I did, I almost was killed by her.

"It's just that we care if Ally wins. That's all." I lied to her.

"Why? You guys never really cared about it before." she said confused.

"Because we just do. Maybe we're tired of seeing her get beat up by people a lot. We all actually care about her." I said.

"Well that's probably true." she muttered to herself.

I didn't tell her I liked Ally so why would she say that?

"What do you mean that's true?" I said to her.

"Clearly Dallas cares about her. He's been showing her around when you're not there." she started to say. "It's hilarious. You should see him when you're in detention or not at school, he just starts flirting with her." she finished.

What the hell? I thought he didn't like her.

"Dallas does what?" I asked her gritting my teeth.

"Yeah, I think he might like her. He might even ask her to prom!" she said to me.

I jumped out of bed looking shocked and surprised.

He couldn't ask her to prom, that what was I going to do.

And if you think I'm letting the guy who called her a walking nightmare flirt with her...you're wrong.

"I thought he said he wouldn't even date her!" I shouted.

"Wow, calm down don't worry! She doesn't even like him anyway. She likes you doesn't she?" she then asked.

I looked at her confused.

"What do you mean? Ally doesn't like me like that." I pointed out.

Her eyes widen as she looked at me fidgeting nervously.

"Well, I think she does. I always hear her talking about you all the time." she said.

"Really?" I asked as a smile formed on my face.

"Yeah! So why did you call me up here?" she then asked.

"Oh! I actually wanted your opinion. You see, I've got a little confession to make..." I started to say.

"You like Ally." she said bluntly.

My eyes widen as I looked at her shocked. I guess it was that easy to figure out. Well, there's no way of hiding what I've started.

"Okay, you got me. I've been liking Ally for a while now and I'm starting to feel something that I've never felt towards anyone which confuses me." I explained.

"That just means you're in love Austin. Something that doesn't happen to a lot of people." she said.

I couldn't believe what I was hearing.

"That's impossible right? I mean, I'm me I could never be in love...it wasn't planned." I told her.

She giggled and sighed.

"It doesn't have to be planned. Sometimes things don't make sense it just feels right." she said.

She was right. It's not like I can go back 3 weeks ago and beg Dallas to pick a new girl for me to bet on.

I mean, why out of all the people that were there in that school would he pick her anyway?

I couldn't have fallen in love with just anyone.

"Thanks Trish, I get it now. So what should I do?" I asked her sitting back down.

"I think you should tell her. I'm pretty sure she likes you too. And besides it's not like you guys have anything to lose." she said.

Only if she knew that I indeed had a lot to lose for this. I would have to suffer everything I've worked for just because I was feeling this way. I couldn't just do that.

"By the way, has she told you yet?" she then asked me.

I looked to her confused.

"Tell me what?" I asked her. She then started to get a little tentative and then jumped up nervously.

"Oh nothing! Just nothing. But would you look at the time I have to go." she said about to leave.

Okay, if she acts like this something is definitely up and I was not going to forget about it or let it go this time.

"Wait! What is it?!" I asked getting a little impatient.

"I can't tell you. She has to." she said.

And with that she turns around and walks downstairs and leaves the house.

I immediately got in the shower and soon dressed. I then grabbed my jacket and my keys and started to head for Ally's house once school was over.

She was going to have to tell me what was wrong. There was no more hiding anything from me.

I got into the car and started to drive off to her house. As soon as I got to her driveway, I could see her room light on.

Now, I was going to wait on her porch until she got back from school. But now, it looked like she didn't even go herself.

When I finally made it to the front door, I knocked on it until she opens the door.

"Austin! What are you doing here? I thought you weren't feeling okay since Trish told me you weren't coming to school." she said to me.

"Well I feel a lot better now and I want you to tell me what you're hiding from me." I said to her nicely.

I could tell she was feeling startled and stunned. But then, I could see she soon relaxed and opened the door and grabs my hand.

"Come in, I think it's time that I should tell you." she said closing the door.

"What's wrong?" I asked her as we both headed up the steps to her room.

She didn't say anything. Instead, she pulled me into her room and closed the door behind her.

This was actually the first time I was in her room.

It looked like a normal one except for the all the instruments and music lyrics and notes she had everywhere.

I'm telling you, if you ever were in her room...you would definitely know she loved music just as much as I do.

She walked over to her dresser and grabbed a piece of paper and turned around back to me with sadness in her eyes.

"Ally, what is that?" I asked her.

"You know when I told you I got into MUNY?" she started off asking.

I didn't know where she was going with this so I just simply nodded my head.

"And remember when I was stressed out over the prom thing." she then asked.

I nodded my head again getting a little nervous.

"Well it turns out that the school saw how well my grades were, and they saw that I had a clean record and told me that I was going to be in their honor's program." she explained.

I didn't know how this was something she needed to hide from me.

"That's great. Isn't it?" I asked her confused.

"Yeah it is but there's just one problem." she said shakily.

"Well what is it?" I asked sitting on the edge of her bed as she soon sat next to me.

"They wanted me to start school the same night after prom is over." she said softly.

I quickly froze. She couldn't go now, she had to graduate and everything. How was that possible?

"Wait, so that means-" I started to say.

"Yeah, it means after the prom...I'll be moving to New York." she said slowly.

This was ridiculous. This couldn't be happening, I finally think that I'm in love with someone and just like my parents they just leave.

"You can't go. What about your friends, your school, graduation, or me?" I asked looking at her.

She looked at me hesitantly. I could see tears forming into her eyes and finally streaming down her cheeks looking at me sadly.

"I'm so sorry. This was the main reason why I didn't want to get new friends...or even talk to a lot of people because I knew something like this would happen, and I knew it would be hard to let go." she started to say faintly.

Like I said, I hate seeing her cry even if she's leaving me like everyone else usually does.

I knew there had to be a reason though why she did what she did.

It explained why I didn't know she was in all my classes, or even knew she existed for 3 years. It was all because she was trying to avoid just about everyone so she wouldn't have a hard time saying good-bye to people.

I did the only thing I could think of at the moment. So, I pulled her into one of the tightest hugs I ever given anyone in my entire life and she hugged me back in the same way crying into my shirt.

I didn't care if she did though, she was leaving and there was nothing I was able to do about it.

"Don't worry, it's going to be okay." I muffled into her hair.

She then pulls away and look up to me, staring into my eyes as I did the same with her.

"No it's not. Cause just when I actually becomes best friends with my crush the world turns around and takes everything I worked for and-" she started to say.

I froze.

I'm pretty sure I heard the word crush, I most certainly heard it come out of her mouth.

That must of meant something. If it didn't though, people like us need to be careful whenever we say words like that but I had to know wether it just slipped out or it was planned for.

"Wait a minute, did you just say crush?" I asked her confused.

She quickly froze and then started getting nervous again.

"Um...I don't know what you're talking about." she said nervously.

"Ally, I just heard you say it." I said to her.

"I know but..." she trailed off and then looked deeply and directly into my eyes.

She soon suddenly became relaxed and sighed.

"I heard myself say it too so yes, Austin Moon you'e been my crush for a while now and I've liked you but I didn't want to say anything because you probably didn't feel the same way." she told me.

Wow, Ally Dawson had a crush on me? Talk about weird and surprising.

"I don't understand...I thought you thought I was some type of shallow idiot." I said to her.

"I did trust me but after you helped me kinda get over my stage frights I started to have feelings for you." she explained.

I was shocked at what I was hearing. But for the first time I was for sure on one thing. Now that Ally liked me, I could actually say it without regretting it.

I was now officially in love with Ally Dawson and I'm not going to plan on taking that back...ever.

But now that I think about all the things she had did just to get my attention. Like being her first kiss, putting my arms around her when we're sleeping, going a date with a guy she didn't really even like then inviting me to it, it all started to add up.

"Wow, I can't believe that you did all that for me." I said in awe getting up and standing in front of her.

"Well how else was I suppose to get your attention?" she then asked giggling.

"You could of just told me." I said to her smiling.

"Yeah but then I would always get so nervous and then I feared I would say something stupid to you." she said standing up in front of me.

"Well, I guess this is my time to say that nothing you say is ever stupid Ally. I don't even think that word belongs in your vocabulary because it's just so happens, I like you too...more than a friend." I told her smiling.

I could see her looking shocked and surprised. But she wasn't the only one, I was surprised myself that I was saying this to her.

"You l-l-l-liked me?" she asked shyly. I laughed.

"Yes, I do. I was just so scared to actually tell you but now I guess I can and-" I started to say coming to her.

Before I could finish my sentence though, Ally had grabbed my collar and leaned into me and kisses me.

I quickly kissed her back passionately until she wraps her around my neck as I pulled her body closer to me. And just like that, she started kissing me more and more as I smiled at how she started biting my lip tugging my hair.

This was really happening. This wasn't like the kiss we shared when I helped her how to know how to kiss which I now know she already knew how to do. It had more meaning and emotions behind it...something that even I couldn't explain.

This was literally the most perfect kiss I've ever gotten.

We soon pulled away after 5 minutes and looked in each other's eyes and smiled leaning our foreheads against each other.

She then looked at me and her smile began to fall as she continued staring at me.

"What is it?" I whispered to her.

"What about the honor's program? I don't want to leave you or anyone." she told me in the same way.

"Let's not worry about what the future holds. Let's just think about right now, because right now with you...is all that matters." I told her holding her chin up to my face. She smiles.

Soon, she had moved away from me pulling me to her bed laying on it as I followed her jumping onto her bed smiling.

"Well right now, I want to go to sleep because I'm tired and if it's not too much to ask...I would love it if you joined me." she said facing towards me.

"Well I'm already here and I'm too lazy to get up so yes, I would love to." I said smiling at her.

She smiles back. And for the rest of the day and going into the night...everything was simply perfect.

The next morning I was laying down in a bed and I noticed it wasn't mine.

So, I swiftly opened my eyes and looked around me and noticed the musical things and instruments all over the room with bright colors. I knew it for sure I wasn't in my room...or my house.

I then felt something on my chest and there I saw Ally sleeping on me peacefully and quietly wrapped up in covers.

I guess what happened last night wasn't a dream and it really happened. We were really together.

I didn't want to wake her up so I sat a little bit and leaned down to her to kiss to the top of her head but instead of still sleeping, she fluttered her eyes open and looked around and then ended her search as she looks at me and smiled.

"I can see you're awake already." she said scooting up closer to me.

"I can see you are too." I said to her.

"Well, I just want to say. Telling you everything yesterday and seeing how it ended, really was one of the best days of my life so thank you so much." she told me.

God, how is it possible not to love this girl?

I smiled and leaned into her and gave her a soft kiss and she quickly kisses me back until she pulls away and stares into my eyes smiling at me.

Knowing how it wouldn't be awkward whenever I kissed her now, just made me happier than ever.

"It's always a pleasure to make you happy." I said.

I suddenly then remembered something I brought over here. So, I sat up a bit more and went in my pocket and pulled out 2 tickets and turned back around to show her as she sees them and smiles.

"I meant to give this to you earlier but I guess I can ask you now. Look Ally, I didn't plan on liking you or anyone for a matter. But I did, and I wouldn't want anyone else to go with me so...will you please go to the prom with me?" I asked her smiling.

Her faces was lighting up and I could see the happiness and the gleam in her eyes blushing.

"I would love to go with you." she said taking the ticket out of my hand and scooted closer to me.

"I am so glad you said that." I said smiling.

And for the first time in my life, I actually felt like I was telling nothing but the truth.

Everything about her made me feel like I could be who I really am.

I didn't have to act dumb around her.

And I didn't have to act like I didn't care because I have fallen in love with Ally Dawson, and I would never want to do anything to hurt her which is why I'm going to do something that Dez and my Dad kept hinting me about ever since I've talked to them about the subject.

I was going to end this whole bet.

I don't care who wins anymore because I have Ally and that was all I needed to make me happy.

The end! No, I'm just joking! lol
