A/N: Happy Early Thanksgiving! I hope you all have a great time and enjoy your families! Thanks so much for all of the reviews and support, I really appreciate it guys! I'd like to clear up a question asked by a guest; I had no way of reaching them so I hope they are reading this! Alexia: No, Ally is not the person who Austin lost! She moved to Miami from New York City, I think I mentioned that in the first chapter. So I hope this cleared that up! I HAVE 42 REVIEWS. OH MY STARS. Can I get up to 50 by chapter 9? Is it possible? Is my story really that good? These are the questions that haunt me at night.

I DO NOT OWN AUSTIN & ALLY.

Austin watched her sleep. She lay by him on the soft grass, nuzzled in his chest. He knew he needed to get her home soon; he really didn't want her father to be angry with him for not bringing his daughter home on time. Now that would be a way to make a first impression. She looked peaceful, as if nothing in the world could go wrong. But at that moment, nothing was wrong. They were at ease with themselves. Austin noticed one of her long caramel locks lay on her face and he brought his hand and brushed the strand off. His hand stayed there, feeling the warmth of her tender skin. The heat was new to his cold hand and a strange sensation rushed through his body. A feeling of security, he hadn't felt that way in a long time. He liked the newfound feeling. He liked the way she was warm against his cold self, he could get used to this.

He glanced down at the time on his phone. It was 10:30, well, it was time to go. He gazed back down at the sleeping girl, she looks so comfortable. I can't wake her up, he decided. Shaking his head he stretched out his arms and took her tiny body in his strong arms. She fit perfectly in his arms. They were like puzzle pieces, meant to fit together in every way possible. That was when he realized how cliché this was. I mean, they were in a secret place, he had just poured his heart out to her, and now he was carrying her (like a husband carried his wife) because she had fallen to sleep and he didn't have the heart to wake her up. He would have laughed if there wasn't a sleeping girl in his arms at the moment.

Carefully, he set her down in the soft seat of his car, trying not to wake her wake. He started the engine of his car and the radio went off in full blast. Ally snapped up. Her eyes widened and she was obviously startled by that dammed radio.

"I- Where am I?"

"In my car, I'm driving you home."

"Oh."

She was really trying hard not to fall back to sleep, but it was incredibly hard. The low hum of the now quiet radio was rocking her to the edge of sleep. But would have been rude, she didn't want to fall asleep in front of Austin again. She was tired and she longed for the warmness of his body next to hers again. It was better that way. Them. Together.

He noticed this.

"Ally, you can go to sleep."

"Huh? Oh okay."

"You look tired, sorry for bringing you here."

"Why are you apologizing? I'm the one who wanted this."

"I know but still. I feel bad."

"Well, don't."

"Okay."

He tried to keep his eyes on the road ahead of him, but he kept sneaking glances to Ally. Her head was drooping low and her eyes were starting to close. Damn, she was cute. He forced himself out of his thoughts and focused on the road ahead, he didn't want to get into an accident. Nope, he was so done with that.

It was 10:59 when he brought her home. He wasn't sure whether to carry her out to her room or knock on the door first. This was solved when Ally's dad walked out and came towards Austin's car. His heart sort of sped up a notch at the thought of her dad not liking him. What if he didn't approve of Austin hanging out with Ally? Would this be another Romeo & Juliet? God fuck, he would absolutely die if that happened. He quickly unbuckled his seat belt and got out of the car to meet Mr. Dawson, his heart pounding the whole way.

"Hello, you must be Austin."

"Yes sir, that's me."

"Seriously this generation has got to stop with the sir! I mean come on! Am I that old?"

"Uh well you don't look that old."

"Just call me Lester."

"Okay, Lester."

"Ally has told me about you."

Okay, now he was sure his heart was pounding loud enough so Lester could hear. Dear Lord. What had Ally told him? How much of a "bad-boy" he was?

"What has she told you?"

"That she really wanted to talk to you."

He could finally breathe. Thank you Ally!

"Oh, well she got what she wanted, I guess."

"I guess so."

"Uh, Ally's kind of, asleep."

"Yeah, that girl is so stuck to falling asleep by 10:00, I told her NO teenager goes to sleep at 10:00 but she insists she needs her time to rest. Sometimes I just want her to be a teenager.

The words were out him too fast.

"Why would you want that?"

Lester looked a little surprised at that.

"Well, I guess I just want her to get that experience. I want her to know she doesn't always have to be so stressed with school all the time."

"I cant see Ally going to parties or getting drunk."

"Me either but still."

"She's an angel. If she becomes like all the others, she won't be that girl anymore. I really hope she doesn't change."

"I like you."

Well, that was fast.

"Thank you."

"Listen, I trust you to keep my baby safe. She's all I have left. If you screw with her, if you mess with her, I will probably do something I'll regret to you."

Austin expected this.

"How about this? If I screw with her, if I mess with her, I'll let you."

Lester let out this big cheeky smile and slapped Austin on the back.

"Damn boy, you're good."

Lester eventually went inside and made Austin carry Ally up to her room. Honestly, he couldn't complain. Holding her close again was the best feeling of revival he could have gotten. As he walked up the flight of stairs he noticed all the pictures of Ally and her dad. No mom. Had her mom gone away? Had they gotten a divorce? He would have to ask Ally about this.

Her room was a red color and it had a keyboard in the very corner of the room. He moved the things that were on the bed to make room for her and gently laid her on the soft sheet. He took of her shoes and the sweater that he had let her borrow. Now she could sleep more soundly. He placed the coat on a nearby chair and watched her smile in her sleep.

Walking back down the stairs he said his goodbye to Lester and walked out of the door. He felt like he accomplished something. He was now officially friends with Ally Dawson. He could get used to that.

The next morning

Ally found a note on her desk chair. She also saw a coat that wasn't hers. It was Austin Moon's.

The note read: Meet me at Minnie's café afterschool. I want to take you back to the "Lost Forest" I having something else to show you.

Your Friend,

Austin Moon.

Ally could get used to the Lost Forest. As long as she had her king, it would be fine.
