Come In With The Rain

Chapter 4

Austin's POV

The first thing that comes to my mind when Ally faints is that I need to get her up off of the floor, which is thankfully carpeted, and calm Audrey down. "Mommy!" Audrey stands above Ally with tears in her eyes. I kneel to talk to her.

"Audrey, I need for you to go get Trish or Dez, okay? Then bring them back, can you do that for me?"

"What happened to mommy? Is she going to be okay?" The tears start to come out of her eyes now.

"Mommy is going to be fine. Don't cry, everything is going to be okay." She takes me by surprise when she raps her little arms around my shoulder.

"I can't lose my mommy, she's all I have." She nuzzles her head into my shoulder and my heart breaks.

I pull away from her embrace. "Mommy is going to be okay, can you go find your aunt and uncle for me?" She nods and runs away quickly. Now that Audrey is gone, I turn my attention to the unconscious Ally. I see that there is a chair on the other side of the hallway. I put my hands underneath her body to lift her up, she's still as light as ever. I sit her down on the chair care fully. There's a piece of paper laying on the table beside the chair, I decide to fan her. A few seconds pass before she opens her eyes. They blink a few times before opening completely. Before I can say anything, Audrey comes back with Dez and Trish. She runs to where Ally is sitting and grabs onto her hand. Ally just stares.

"Mommy! Are you okay?" Ally squeezes Audrey's hand.

"I'm okay sweetie. Just a little light-headed."

"I'm glad that you're okay, I was worried! Good thing Austin Moon was here to save you!" This causes Ally to turn her head to me. She's sending me death glares.

"Audrey, why don't you go back into the room and find your friends?" Dez and Trish are still awkwardly standing back there.

"I don't want to leave you."

"Mommy's okay, I just need to talk to Austin." Audrey nods her head.

"Okay mommy." She takes everyone by surprised when she turns around to hug me. "Thank you for making my mommy okay." I don't know what to say so I just pat her back.

"Your welcome sweetie." She skips away, she has no idea what's going on.

Once Audrey's out of the room, Ally turns to look at me. "What are you doing here?" I look over at Dez, he's biting his nails.

"I was invited." I look over to see Trish smack Dez.

"Did you invite him without telling me?" Trish has her hands on her hips, I'm glad I'm not him. Of course I have to deal with a mad Ally.

"I'm sorry, I knew that you would've told me no!"

"Of course I would've said no! Look at what just happened to Ally! And Audrey!" Audrey's name brings me back.

"Guys! Can you go somewhere else? I think Ally and I need to have a talk."

Trish and Dez walk away from us, still bickering. I can't help the chuckle that comes out. "I just fainted and there you are, laughing like nothing happened." I turn my head to look at the brunette. "You haven't changed a bit." She attempts to get up but I stop her.

"No, you just fainted, sit down." She argues but I pull up a chair to sit across from her, she's trapped now. "So, Ally, or should I say mommy, any thing you need to tell me?" She looks like she's been caught.

"I'm a mom now. Why did you come to the wedding? Run out of booze and women?" She puts the knife in and twists it at the same time.

"Dez invited me and I was in Miami already. Whose daddy?" I ignore her other comment. Ally's face looks even whiter than before, she knows she's caught, and that's how I know what her answer is already.

"Austin, can we not do this right here?" She attempts to get up and I let her.

"Ally, is what I'm thinking right?" I stand up and gently grab her hand. I pull away when I realize what I'm doing.

"Not now. I have to go get Audrey to make sure she's okay."

"Is Audrey? Am I?" I can't get the sentence out. She turns around to look at me, her face gives me the answer.

"Not now. Thank you for making sure Audrey's okay, and I'm okay." She starts to walk away.

"Wait, we have to talk about this! You can't just go!" She turn around to look at me and her face is cold.

"It's not like you've never left before!"

"That is completely different!" It really isn't.

She walks closer to me, I still smell that same perfume. "Oh, so it was okay for you to leave me in the morning, not call for months, then show up just to do the same thing?"

"It was okay for you to hide a child for 5 years?" She doesn't take that well.

"I didn't hide her! You just left before I could tell you! Don't go pointing fingers at me!" She turns away from me, her hair flipping.

"Well when are we going to talk about this?"

"I don't know, when are you not busy with your whores?" I don't take that well.

"You don't know anything!"

"I know enough!" I'm now standing in front of her. "Let me go, I need to go find Audrey."

Just as Ally says that Audrey comes through the door. Her eyes go from me to Ally, her face is confused. "Mommy? Are you coming back?" Ally removes her gaze from me on to the little girl.

"Yes, just give me a second." Audrey has more to say.

"Do you know Austin Moon? Why didn't you tell me?" Her eyes are pleading, I don't do anything but stand there, it's a moment between mother and daughter.

Ally kneels to talk to her. "Sweetie, Austin and I have met before, but were not close any more."

"Is he my family to?" Why would she say that? "Since we have the same last name." Audrey Marie Moon. There's my answer.

"Hunny, why don't you go get your coat and we will talk about this later." She frowns but trudges away. Ally turns her attention back to me. "Before you say anything, I don't want to talk now. I really don't want to talk at all, but I can't hide this any more. How long will you be in Miami?" Originally I was supposed to go back to LA on Sunday, but not any more.

"For as long as it takes."

"Okay, well I will give you a call. I have to get Audrey home." I let her walk away.

I stand still for a moment, trying to comprehend what all happened in 20 minutes. I can't stand here any longer, I go do the only thing that will make me forget, I go drink. I need to be safe, in case Ally called, so I go back to my hotel. Drinking alone is how I do it now.

Audrey Marie Moon. What a pretty name. I always loved the name Audrey, Ally knew that. Why did I leave? Why didn't I come back? If I had known, I wouldn't be in this place right now. If I would've known there wouldn't be lies spread about me, that Ally, apparently, believes. Don't think about that right now Austin. Think about the little girl. The little girl who has your last name and your face. That cute as a button face. I can tell from the little conversation that we had that her personality is wonderful. I wonder what she was like as a baby, what her first word was, when she first walked. As much as I want to play the victim, I can't. It's not Ally's fault that I was a jerk and didn't stay. It's not Audrey's fault that I was blinded by my name in lights to call Ally. It's not either of their faults that I'm apart of there lives. It's mine, all my fault.


Ally's POV

Wow, wow, wow. I don't have time to think about what just happened, I have to get Audrey, say good-bye to the happily, fighting, newly weds. I find Dez and Trish dancing, I can tell that they're quietly bickering, but they still love each other.

"Hey guys, Audrey and I are going to get ready to leave." They break away from there dance.

"Wait, Ally, I'm sorry that I didn't tell you that I invited him. I wasn't thinking." Dez sincerely apologizes.

"It's fine, I'm sure Trish already has a punishment in mind. Who was I kidding? I couldn't keep Austin in the dark forever. Have a good honey moon and we will talk when you get back." They both hug me, they know that there's no point in talking to me right now.

After getting Audrey into the car, were heading home. She doesn't say anything for the first few minutes. "Mommy, I was really scared." I look at her through the mirror.

"I'm sorry, sweetie. Mommy will be more careful next time." There better never be a next time.

"I'm glad that Austin was there. He told me not to cry and that everything was going to be okay. I like him." I can tell that she's about to fall asleep.

I was right, when we get home she's fast asleep. I carefully pick her up and carry her to bed. Once she's tucked in, I can allow myself to think.

I saw Austin in person for the first time in 5 years. He hasn't changed a bit, except he looks a little older, more experienced. I shouldn't have said what I did, but can you blame me? I was shocked to find him talking to Audrey. I can't live in my own little world any more.

I reach for my phone, going to my contacts and looking for his number. I hit send and it goes to voice mail. "Hey, it's Ally. Give me a call, maybe we can talk on Monday? Audrey's at day care from 9 to 2. Meet at Sonic Boom?" I know that he still has the same number because of his voice mail, I'm the one who changed my number.

There's no hiding any more, it's time to face the facts. Austin Moon is the father of my child. The main question I have is what will he do now? I don't expect him to drop his career, but is he going to want to be a part of Audrey's life, of mine? How do I tell Audrey? How am I suppose to do it all?

Hello! Austin knows! They talked! I'm not sure how I feel about this chapter but I didn't want to keep you guys waiting. I got 10 reviews on the last chapter! That's awesome! I'm glad you guys are liking it so far!
