ALLY'S POV
To say I was worried about Austin was an understatement. It has been one hour since his sister passed aaway. We are still sitting her in the waiting room of the hospital. He hasn't talked to me since he came out of Alex's room. He hasn't even cried that I have seen.
"Austin are you okay?" I asked him. I know it was a stupid question of course He is not okay. His sister just died.
"Ally... I just don't understand." He told me with a bunch of confusion in his voice. He dont but I don't know more. I don't even know what happen to her.
"What don't you understand? How she died?" I asked him hoping to get an answer out of him as to why she died.
"She had a Brain Tumor. The thing I don't understand is what she said to me." He with confusion and sadness in his eyes and voice. With that he got up leaving me. I sat there for a little bit trying to process everything that has happen in the last 2 days.
I met Austin Moon, Became Friends with him, He stole my book., I told him about the rape, He said he would help me, I meet his sister, I spent the night with them, And then Alex died. It's just really sad...
What Alex said really stuck with me. 'Open up, Dont be scard to let Austin in. Let him love you' That's basically what she was saying. I Promised I would let Austin in and I am going to keep that promise.
AUSTIN'S POV
I can't Believe it... She is gone...
I feel like my world just disappears in seconds..
FLASHBACK (inside the room before Alex died)
"Austin. Are you okay?" Alex asked. This is one of the reasons I love my sister. She is sitting in a hospital bed and she is worried about me.
"Yeah, Considering what's going on I am okay." I told her. I don't want to worry her with my problems.
"Austin I know you are having problems with me dieing." She said and that's when I just broke down and cried. I can't believe she is okay with dieing. She is my life how can I live without her. She is the one I go to. I am the one she gose house is going to be silent and I dont want that.
"Austin it's okay.. We knew this was going to happen someday." She said. She sounded as if she wasn't even scard.
"I know but aren't you scard. Alex, I am scard." I told her she needs to know that I am scard. She was the only one that me not care about to press.
"Austin, I know you are. I also know that I am your 'rock' because you tell me all the time. Austin, I think this is happening for a reason. Go and let Ally be your 'rock'. I am not going to need you in a few minutes but, Ally is going to need you." She said. Is it weird that I don't want to understand it. I wish I didn't. I can't believe that she is telling me to forget about her and move on to Ally.
"I can't forget you Alex, Yo-" She cut me off. Looking dead serious which almost never happens.
"Austin I don't want you to forget me. I will always be with you. I am just saying Ally she is special, Don't let her get away. Austin I- " She stopped talking. Her eyes started to fall close. I looked at the screen to her heart is about to stop.
"Alex? ALEX! WAKE UP PLEASE! I need you." I shaked her. Nothing was working. I finally just got up from my seat. I looked at the monitor she was still alive but beary. What was she going to say?
"I love you. You're my world." I told her. I kissed her forehead and stayed in a minute until I seen the monitor go flat. She's gone. I can't believe my sister is gone.
END OF FLASHBACK
I am sitting at the hospital fountain they have in front of the hospital. I still can't believe it. My sister has been gone for 1 hour and 50 minutes. I still can't believe she isn't here with me, by my side.
"Austin?" When someone said my name I snapped my head up to see my mom.
"Yeah mom?" I asked her. We barely talk. She never really got me.
"I'm sorry. I know you to were pretty close.." She said I look up to see her just standing there. Almost as if she wasn't going to cry. I know I still had tears in my eyes. I know that my face is soaked in tears.
"Mom are you okay?" I asked her. Maybe she was just holding it in for me. Maybe she is trying to be the stong one.
"Yeah baby, I just wanted to know if you wanted me to adopt another little sister for you." I was about to yell at her when all her word processed in my head. What dose she mean "ADOPT ANOTHER" Did she adopt one before?
"What do you mean ADOPT ANOTHER!?" I emphasized it. I stood up from where I was sitting. I was not standing right in front of her.
"Well you didn't know?" I just shook my head no. "Alex was an orphan. I adopted her for you." She told me. Now that I think about it, Alex did have Brown hair while everyone else has blonde. And blue eyes while everyone else had brown. I just thought she got those from are grandma.
"AND YOU NEVER TOLD ME! WHY? DON'T YOU CARE THAT SHE JUST DIED! I MEAN SHE WAS YOUR DAUGHTER HER WHOLE LIFE!" I screamed. I don't care if we draw attention. I love Alex as much as I always have if not more now. It just all came out but she did kinda deserve it.
"Austin, I love you son, I loved Alex like a daughter. yes. But she isn't my real daughter so why would I cry?" She asked me as if I was dumb.
"BECAUSE MOM SHE WAS YOUR DAUGHTER HER WHOLE LIFE. YOU ARE THE ONLY MOTHER SHE HAD. DON'T YOU CARE! If I died right now mom, Would you cry. Or would you say. "I was never home with him so he wasn't my real son' Is that what you would do mom. If you are my real mom that is." I told her. I know that was a little harsh but she hasnt been there for years.
She don't care. She just stands there with a bored expression on her face.
like Alex was nothing to her. Like I am nothing to her.
"Austin do you want another sister or not?" What is wrong with her...
"No Mimi I dont want another sister. No one is as good as Alex." And with that I left her standing there. I think she is still shocked I called her by her name.
I know what your saying, how could you do that to your mom?, Well she isn't mom, She has never been there more me and Alex. She was never there for us when we were sick, When we needed advice, She wasn't there for anything. I can't believe I just lost my Sister and Mother in the same day.
I walked into the waiting room and I see Ally sitting in a chair crying. She was doing it silently. Her eyes were bloodshot. Her face was wet in tears, I got closer to her. And I sat down In a couple of chairs behind her. I didn't want her to know I was here. Ally and I were the only to in the room. I have a hunch that she will starting about why she is upset.
It's been 20 minutes and Ally hasn't said anything. I got up from my seat and I was going to go over and sit by her. Ask why she was upset
I walked over to her. I stood right in front of her and that's when she noticed my presents.
"Hey Austin?" She sounded questionable that it was me. She started wiping away her tears.
"Hey Ally...?" I was going to continue but I couldn't find the words. I felt like if I keep on talking I would just start crying. Ally must have noticed because she just took my hand. There was a couch in the corner and she brought me to it. Then she sat down next to me.
"Austin.. I know you want to cry. Stop being strong for everyone and cry. You don't always have to be strong." She told me. She just hugged me. I was caught off guard but managed to catch us. I started to cry. I didn't want to keep being strong in front of everyone.
After a couple minutes of crying Ally started to speak.
"Austin, What's wrong?" She asked me. I know she knows I just lost my sister but I think she knows something else is bugging me.
"You know what my mom just told me.." Ally just made a sigh telling me continue. "She said that Alex was adopted." Ally's eyes widened I don't know why but ok..
"Do you love her any less now?" Ally asked me. I could see in her eyes sthat she want's me to say. And I am going to say it because it is the truth.
"Ally, I love her more knowing that she was foster kid now. She is always going to be my sister." I looked Ally in the eye and I continued. "You know Alex said somethings in that room, And it made me realize something.
"What did she say first?" She asked.
"Well She said 'Go and let Ally be your 'rock'. I am not going to need you in a few minutes but, Ally is going to need you' I Understood what she meant. And I think I alway will but she said something else that just made me realize t-" Ally cut me off. But I am happy she did.
SHE KISSED ME! Ally Mo- Opps Ally Dawson Just kissed me Austin Moon. To say I felt sparks would be a lie. I didn't feel Sparks. I felt Fireworks going off. Alex was right I can't let Ally get away! She is to special.
We pulled apart when someone cleared there throats. I looked up to see my mom standing by a little boy.
"Hey Jake, What are you doing here." I heard Ally ask him. Wait How does Ally know this kid. He's like 6.
"Hey Ally. I don't this lady say that she wanted me to meet someone." He told Ally. There must be something I am missing.
"Jake, this is Austin My son." Mimi told him. I looked down to see a little hand about to feel my face.
"Ally what is he doing?" I asked her. I didn't understand why he was about to touch my face.
"Oh..Ally and Mimi didn't tell you. I am blind." Jake said as if it was nothing. I mean it's not a bad thing. I just don't understand why he is here. I looked at the clock to see it is 5:00 in the morning. We have been up for almost 24 hours. WOW.. What is this kid doing here.
"Mimi I am not trying to be rude but what is Jake doing here?" I asked my mom. I am going to be calling her Mimi thought because lets face it. My maid was more of a mom to me then Mimi.
"Jake is going to be your new brother. You said that you didn't want another sister so I got you a brother." She said. I Wanted to yell at her. I wanted to scream. But before I could Ally said something. And what she said Shocked me.
"You can't take my brother!" She said in an angry voice. If Jake was Ally's brother then...
"Ally, dear what are talking about. I got him from the orphanage." Mimi said wow, Is she really that dumb.
ALLY'S POV
I can't believe they want to adopt my little brother. We are about to get are parents back but if they adopt him then he can't live me anymore.
"Mimi, Ally is saying that she lives in the orphanage with Jake." I just nodded taking Jake into my arms. Don't get me wrong Austin would be an awesome brother to Jake but, Jake is mine and I love him. I don't want anyone to take him away from me.
"Mimi, No offence to Jake, but I dont want another sibling. I love Alex. No one is going to replace her. You can't just replace someone!" I told her. I was so mad. "Come on Ally and Jake I will take you guys hope. You're both probably tired." I said as I grabbed Ally's hand and She grabs Jake's.
This one is a little bit longer. I don't know by how much... Sorry if it's still short. I hope you guys like it!
