Here's an extra long chapter for you guys. Hope you enjoy one that's mostly free of drama.
I don't own Austin and Ally
Austin's POV
I woke up the next morning, and the entire left side of my body was asleep due to the small bit of extra weight from Maddie laying on me all night. She was so upset last night, so it's really good to see her sleeping peacefully right now. I noticed Ally wasn't anywhere to be seen in the living room, so I decided to lie Maddie down on the couch and look in the other rooms. It really wasn't much of a surprise to see her making pancakes in the kitchen, but it was a surprise to see how clean the room was. There wasn't any trace of food, blood, or broken glass anywhere.
"Morning Als. What time did you get up, and how on Earth did you clean all of that so fast?", I asked.
"Austin, I can go to sleep at 3:00 A.M. and get up at the crack of dawn with enough energy for the whole day. I can also clean a room in under thirty minutes that's moderately messy. This took maybe an hour, so I made everyone breakfast", she said holding an enormous stack of pancakes.
"Wow. How do you do it?", I asked amazed.
"Years of practice. I was a pretty big nerd who studied hard in high school, and now I'm a mother. Don't question it", she said pointing a wooden spoon with pancake batter on the end at me. I held my hands up in defense laughing a little. This, of course, didn't stop her from smearing it all over my face which started a full-on food fight between us. I love Ally so much. I can't imagine myself doing something like this with any other woman in this entire world. I'll be so glad when we finally get married. We finished cleaning up the kitchen again, and I helped her finish making breakfast, because apparently not everyone can eat just pancakes all day. Oh well, it's their life, and that means more for me…and Ella of course.
"So, what are we doing today?", I asked.
"Going to jail", Ally said simply, but I could hear the nervousness in her voice. This really confused me.
"Huh?"
"I want to see my brother", she said seriously.
"Are you sure you're ready?", I asked. She breaks down an awful lot just talking about him, so I want to make sure she really is ready.
"No, but I want to do this; I have to do this. It's what's best for me. I need to hear his explanation for everything he put me through these past five years", she said sighing.
"Okay Ally, if you think it's for the best. Do you want me to go with you?", I asked.
"Will you?", she asked. I smiled and wrapped my arms around her.
"If you want me too, I'm there; always. If you ever need anything at any time, I'll be there. So, do you want me there?", I asked again.
"Of course I do! You and Ella are the only things that really keep me sane, and I'm not taking my five year old daughter to a prison", she said laughing a little.
"Okay, then we can go in a few hours", I said. She nodded. For the next few minutes, she showed me a bunch of pictures she took of all of us while we were sleeping. She sure does love photography.
"Good morning sweetie. Your father and I are going to head on home. Have a great day you two, and feel free to come by later, but you don't have to", my mom said leaving.
"Bye guys", I said and they left.
"Morning", Ella said tiredly from the top of the stairs. Her eyes were still mostly closed, so I walked up the stairs and carried her all the way down. "What are we doing today?"
"Well, Mommy and I are going to go handle some business, while you are going to have your special girls' day with Maddie", I said. She immediately woke right up and smiled brightly at this.
"Maddie looks like Sleeping Beauty, so I don't want to wake her up yet, but can I please wake Uncle Dez and Aunt Trish up?", she asked excitedly. I looked at Ally to see what she thought of this idea considering the last time we did this it didn't turn out to well.
"Well, we promised we wouldn't play another horrible prank on them, but we said nothing about Ella. Why not", she said smiling. Ella finished eating her pancakes, and used the left over whipped cream to give them both mustaches. We took pictures, then Ella jumped on both of them to wake them up. It was hilarious when they both jumped about ten feet in the air when they realized how close they were to each other.
"Guys, why is there whipped cream on my face?", Trish asked annoyed.
"Your niece thought it would be a funny way to wake you guys up. You did say we couldn't prank you. Nothing was said about Ella", Ally said. I get prouder of her every day.
Trish immediately wiped he whipped cream off her face, but Dez just ran around the neighborhood loudly screaming, "Look at my creamy mustache!", in a fake French accent.
"What time is it?", Maddie asked yawning.
"11:30", I said laughing.
"Then why am I so tired?"
"Maybe because you were balling your eyes out for half an hour before you fell asleep", Trish said.
"Oh."
"Maddie, it's our girls' day!", Ella exclaimed excited to see her finally awake.
"If you can spell girl, then we can do an extra special surprise for everyone when we get back", Maddie said whispering to Ella what the surprise would be. It's probably a pretty good surprise considering she started squealing and jumping up and down with excitement.
"G-i-r-l", Ella said instantly. We all stared at her wide-eyed, because we knew we hadn't taught her that yet.
"H-how did you know that?", Ally asked.
"T.V. does not rot your brain", was all she said. We all laughed.
"Well, I guess we better get ready for the day so we can get started", Maddie said and they sped up the stairs.
"Well, we're off to handle some business. See you guys this afternoon for whatever this surprise is supposed to be", Ally said walking out the door. I told her I'd just be a minute and pulled Trish aside.
"Trish, I know this sounds stupid, but will you stay here with Dez and make sure he doesn't break anything…or himself?", I asked. I've left Dez alone many times before, so I know how he is. Of course I don't want him breaking everything in our place again, but the real reason I'm doing this is to set Trish and Dez up. I know they like each other, but they're both too stubborn to admit it, so they have to spend as much time as possible together…alone.
"You leave Dez alone all the time", Trish pointed out.
"And look what happened yesterday, and where he and Ally ended up because of it. Not to mention all the crazy, exotic animals upstairs we forgot about", I said pointedly.
"Fine, but I do expect that new outfit you still owe me from saving your life when you got shot", she said. See, that proves she at least part way likes Dez. There's no way she'd give into something she didn't want to do that easily. Especially with only making me get her something I already owe her. Usually it'd she'd have to be bribed with a lot more.
"Awesome. Thanks Trish. See you later", I say running out the door.
Ally's POV
We arrived at the prison, and you can safely say I was really nervous. If it wasn't for Austin being here for me, I would be totally freaking out right now. "You ready?", he asked me.
"Ready as I'll ever be", I sighed as they let us through. That's when I saw him for the first time in five years. My brother, standing right in front of me after all this time, and I can instantly tell it's him alright.
"Elliot", I said trying to hold back the tears.
"Ally! Wow, my baby sister's all grown up", he said smiling.
"Why?", was all I could say. It combined everything I had been wondering over the years into one word.
"Why what?"
"Why did you do everything? You got drunk at a party, and got the girl that bullied me all throughout high school pregnant. You never noticed all the bruises and cuts I got after every beating at the orphanage. You said to put your own baby up for adoption. You abandoned me to live on my own with your baby on my eighteenth birthday. You kidnapped my daughter for the girl that's behind most of my life's misery, then helped my family get her back. You never even tried to contact me for five years. Why would you do all of that to me when I loved and trusted you more than this world? You know good and well what I'm talking about, because you heard my song. I was completely serious, and started writing it the day after you left. That's why it said 'yes I remember what you said last night' 'Tell Me Why' is the name of the song for a reason. So, why?", I asked pouring everything out of me that had been bottled up for so long. I just wanted to know why.
"Honestly Ally, I have no idea. I don't know how or why I could've done any of that to you. I love you so much", he said.
"So you don't have an answer as to why you hurt me so much over these past few years?", I asked shaking my head in disbelief.
"Because I was a stupid, selfish jerk who will never forgive myself", he said.
"You're right about that, but the best mistake you ever made for me was Ella". I said. He looked up at me confused.
"How? I left you alone with a three month old baby when you were eighteen. Even if she was your niece, how could you love her after what I did, and knowing she was also a part of your worst enemy? How could you even stand to look at her?", Elliot asked. That was probably the most horrible thing I've ever heard come from his mouth.
"Because she was an innocent baby Elliot! I still loved you no matter what you did. She was a part of me too. And by the way, she never has been and never will be my niece. Ella is my daughter! She is not yours. I don't care if you were her birth father. You never loved her like a father should. I loved her as my daughter the first second I laid my eyes on her. She is my daughter, and always will be", I said angrily. He looked extremely shocked by my outburst.
'Well, I'm still legally her father, even if I am behind bars", he said.
"You will never be her father", Austin said coldly, and with so much venom in his voice. I smiled at this. He really does love Ella…much more than Elliot ever could.
"I thought you died", Elliot said to Austin. That's it!
"Elliot, I am not going to stand here and listen to you talk to my fiancé like that. I love Austin, and I just came here to find my brother, but he appears to be long gone. Have a nice life and call me when the real Elliot Dawson gets here, because you are most definitely not him. Let's go Austin", I said dragging him away before Elliot could say another word. I stopped by the front desk so they could deliver a few messages for me.
"Please tell Elliot Dawson how I realized that these last five years have been the best years of my life. And tell Max, Tina, and Samantha Freeman that Ally Dawson's entire family couldn't be happier right now, and they will never ruin mine, Ella's, or Maddie Carter's life again. And Ella is and will always be MY daughter. You can let Elliot hear the first and third of those messages as well please. Thank-you", I said and we left.
"Wow Ally! I'm so proud of you!", Austin exclaimed spinning me around when we got outside.
"I know, and I couldn't be happier. Besides, Dez is my only real brother. And then Trish and Maddie are my sisters. That's just the way I like it", I said. He smiled and nodded, so we left the prison and went back to Austin's place to wait for Ella and Maddie to get back from their girls' day.
Third Person POV
"Maddie, I love this phone! You're the best ever! Thank-you! I love you so much!", Ella exclaimed as she admired her new IPhone 5 (1).
"You're welcome, and I love you too. Now come on, we have to get ready for the fashion show", Maddie replied.
"You're really going to let me wear grown-up make-up and nail polish that doesn't chip off before the day's over?", Ella asked. Maddie laughed.
"Of course. We're going to get ourselves all done up nicely. Now we have to go buy all kinds of new outfits, shoes, and accessories for the fashion show. Oh, and not to mention a bunch of make-up and nail polish", Maddie said as they raced off to about a hundred different stores.
Four Hours Later
"Wow, that must've been some girls' day", Dez said as Maddie and Ella staggered in with both of them holding about ten bags on each arm.
"Yeah, and there's like a hundred more bags still in the limo", Ella said. Maddie just laughed.
"She's exaggerating. There's only about ninety-six bags still in there", Maddie said. All six adults stared at the two girls in front of them in bewilderment.
"How much did you buy!?", Mimi asked after a few moments of silence.
"We lost count after store number eight", Ella said.
"Maddie, why did you get so much?", Ally asked.
"It's for the surprise", Ella answered for her. "Plus, Daddy said he'd pay for everything. Daddy's very rich, right?", she asked. Everyone started laughing at this, even Austin who was probably about to be charged thousands of dollars. As they started back out to the car to get some more of their bags, Maddie poked her head back in.
"Oh Austin, I looked for some really good deals on all the stuff we bought, so it's not near as much as you think", Maddie said and went outside.
"How on Earth are we going to top that for her Christmas presents?", Austin asked.
"Austin, look at those bags. I'm pretty sure it's all clothes, shoes, and accessories. She barely had any clothes before, and now she has a whole wardrobe. Toys are great Christmas and birthday presents, even though that's not what Christmas is all about", Ally said. "Christmas is about celebrating the day Jesus was born with your family and friends."
"You're right Ally. I love you", Austin said kissing her.
Forty-five Minutes Later
"We're ready!", Maddie yelled from the top of the stairs. Both girls came walking downstairs with their make-up and hair done beautifully, and were wearing the most adorable yellow sundresses with brown sandals.
"You both look beautiful", Austin commented. Ally was beginning to tear up. "What's wrong Als?"
"My baby's all grown up", she cried.
"Mommy, I'm not grown up yet. I think since I just called you 'Mommy', that proves my point", Ella said.
"But you've already started wearing make-up, and you have a cell phone. You'll be starting school next year", Ally cried.
"Ally, you still have plenty of time with Ella as a child. She'll be in school for thirteen years", Mimi said.
"I guess", Ally said wiping at her eyes. "Now go show us the rest of your pretty new outfits", she said, and this went on for two and a half more hours.
"Well, that's it", Maddie said as they were modeling their last outfit. "Come on Ella. Let's go get our pajamas on."
Fifteen Minutes Later
"I'm going to go check on them. They've been up there way too long to just be putting their pajamas on", Ally said ad Trish went with her. When they got in the room, they found both girls asleep on the bed. Maddie had on a tank top and some shorts, but Ella was still in the outfit she had tried on fifteen minutes before.
"Picture time", Ally said pulling out her phone. Trish did the same after calling the guys up.
"How cute", Austin said.
"She needs her pajamas on, but I don't want to wake her up", Ally said.
"I'll help you", Austin said and helped Ally put their daughter's pajamas on her, and tuck both girls into bed, kissing both their foreheads, and Ally taking a few more pictures.
