A/N:Hello Loves! Happy Fourth of July to my American Readers, and to those of you that aren't living in or are American... Happy First friday in July! I also want to say thank you to famlies like mine, with family in the military, your families mean so much to me and this country...its your family that gives us the chance to even celebrate today! I'm sorry its been a while since I last updated (some of you happened to remind me 'its been a month" thanks for the reminder but i have a calendar), but weeks went by after updating and I got a total of like 5 reviews..so, I started thinking what's the point no ones reading. Eventually, I started thinking it was my fault because in all honesty the writing in this story sucks, I don't really think I knew were I was going or what I was doing with this but...here I am, I'm trying and I've lost all motivation for this. I do appreciate those of you that did review, youre amazing and I love you. I love you all, but reviews really do motivate me, so could you guys please try too? Thanks! Enough Jibber Jabber, lets see if we can get Aus lly to be auslly again. (Btdubs the chapter starts in Ally's Pov before Austin walks out)

WritermeaAL: It has been a while, and I'm sorry for that. I'm glad you liked the drama, I tried my best for that. I hope you like this chapter because it is indeed drama filled!
Doclover:You're fine, thanks for reviewing at least ;)
Guest: Ok, if you read that chapters end note, I was 12 at the time... I'm 13 now and IM NOT IN ANYWAY SHAPE OR FORM SEXUALLY ACTIVE! I'm not doing another sex scene, and the first one was just a tiny little blurb so everyone wouldn't be like "What the heck?! She's pregnant? She didn't even do anything" I will not add more moaning, I DO NOT know how to make it anymore detailed than that, I have no idea what you mean by a "picture" with the scene, but I can honestly tell you I dont want that picture and nor do my readers! If you want detailed sex i'm sure you can find some M rated fics out there. I don't mean to be rude,
Storywriter8:Those are very good questions you asked! Honestly, the way I see it, Austin and Ally are already treading on thin ice, so to bring up the Dallas thing, would just cause more unecessary problems. I dont think Austin will over react to harshly about it, I mean I can't promise that he won't do something about it, but I think he'll understand more given what Ally went through with Elliot and Austin knowing how Dallas is...a homewrecker. Thanks for your review I really appreciated it, gave me a lot to think about honestly! ;)
Queenc1: Sorry this wasn't as soon as you probably wanted but I promise I'll get better! The happy couple should be standing in the eye of the hurricane soon. :)

Ally Pov,
"So... he came up with some grand way to ask you to the prom, and now you're basically going by yourself?" Piper asks sipping on her milkshake and taking 2 salty fries from her plate.
"Yeah, and I'm upset about it and, he doesn't see anything wrong with what he did! I mean, Trish doing it as his manager was one thing, but the fact that he accepted before that without even talking to me is the problem. He didn't even say anything remotely close to I'm sorry, that he'd talk to Jimmy or anything." I shrug.
"Wow, I guess no matter how perfect, all guys speak ass."
I couldn't help but laugh a little.
"I'm over it I guess, I was supposed to go shopping for a dress with his sister but, I don't think I'm gonna go. I'd rather have a movie night with Lys and his sister than spend prom by myself while he has the time of his life performing."
"You go girl. Show Austin whose boss" Piper says highfiving me.
"How are things with you and Ryan?" I ask.
She shrugs finishing her milkshake. "Ok I guess. I told him that I wanted to go to college, and he kind of gave me an ultimatum. He wants me to go on tour with him, but I don't want a gap year, I just wanna go to college graduate and start my life, but at the same time, Ryan means a lot to me. I don't know what to do Ally, I mean, his band isn't a succesful big name band, they'll probably have like 20 people tops at there concerts, and I don't know if I want to give up all my dreams to watch him lose hope in something he loves."
"I'm probably not one to give relationship advice, but if Ryan really loves you and cares about you like he says, he'd want you to be happy and want you to chase your dreams like he is, not to sound like a fortune cookie or anything." I say.
"You're right. I'll try talking to him about it." Piper agrees, she checks the time. "It's like 7:45, we should probably get going,"
I nod my head and throw away my trash. I grab all 6 of my shopping bags filled with things for Alyssa, and Asshole.
(Time Skip, still Ally's Pov)
"Thanks again Piper! I had a lot of fun today, I'll see you tomorrow." I say as I get out of her car.
"Of course, Later Ally." She honks before pulling out of the drive way and honking twice.
I walk into the house and drop my shopping bags almost immediately at the sight of Alyssa screaming her head off in Austin's arms. I walk over to her and take her from him.
I look up to see Austin glaring at me before he says, "So, You decide that you can just come strolling in here whenever you want, because your pissed? Because then, I should leave now too, and just dissappear ignore your texts, clear your calls, make you worry when I've just been out having the time of my life shopping with my friend. What the hell is wrong with you!? he yells.
I glare right back at him and flare my nostrils, "Don't shout at me. You're not my dad and you're sure not acting like a boyfriend! You're not my dad, You're not my boyfriend, you're not my anything! YOU don't get to decide when I come home. YOU sure as hell, can't yell at me when you started all this. I'm not in the mood to talk to you, so you can just fuck off for a little while. I storm up the stairs.
"So you're just gonna break up with me?" I ask. I don't get a chance to answer before I hear the front door slam shut.
How is it that this is his fault and all this shit blew up in my face?
"Daddy mad at wiss?" Alyssa asks from my arms, sniffling every now and then.
"No, Daddy's not mad at you, he's mad at mommy." I sigh, walking into the bathroom to give her a warm bath.
"Daddy loves mommy?" She asks looking up at me with her big hazel eyes.
"Of course, always" except right now, I think to myself.
Austin Pov,
"I don't even know how we got here," I whisper to my sister in the dark as we walk around.
"You got here, because your being an ass. You made it a big deal to take her to senior prom, and now, you're telling her she's the least important thing to you on that night. I'm gonna go out on a limb here baby brother and say that's not the best feeling in the world." Halston says as we reach the front of my house were she parked her car.
"Do I have to?" I whine.
"If you don't wanna do this for Ally then do it for Alyssa, she's probably really confused with all of the fighting" She whispers, "I'll see you later baby brother,"
I give her a hug before walking back into the house.
I look around and see that the living rooms empty, my eyes land on Ally's figure walking down the stairs in a pair of short pj shorts and tanktop.
"Hey.." I say.
"Hi," She replies awkwardly, "I just put Alyssa to bed, she wanted to know where you were so you could tuck her in," She whispers.
"Oh...Listen, Ally we need to talk," I say addressing the elephant in the room
"Right...in the kitchen, so we don't wake Alyssa up," She says grabbing my hand and walking ahead of me.
I ignore the cliche spark of electricity that runs up the length of my arm at her touch.
She lets go too soon though the moment we get into the kitchen.
"Look Austin I'm going to be straightforward with you, I'm not mad anymore. I'm not going to the prom so you can give your job 110% of your attention." She says swirling her finger around the rim of her coffee mug.
"Thats not what I want! That's never what I wanted!" I yell frustrated.
"Keep your voice down, Alyssa's sleeping upstairs and she's going to the zoo with Chase tomorrow so shut up." Ally whisper shouts.
I sigh, before starting again. "You always made it seem like senior prom wasn't a big deal to you. I just assumed - based on your actions - it wouldn't be a big deal if I played a few songs at the prom,"
She scoffs, rolling her eyes before. "Austin, I said it wasn't a big deal when I was a single nerdy freshman, with no boyfriend. All of those things have fucking changed, but the part that pisses me off the most... you acted like you didn't fucking care. Austin, I get that you're doing what you love and crap like that...but I didn't realize it was more important than me."
"I didn't say that!" I whisper yell.
"You implied it." She says simply.
"You're one to talk considering the fact that you skipped town with my kid without telling me. You obviously did that because you care more about you care more about your pearly white reputation and couldn't stand the fact you'd be walking around school sporting a baby bump. You left for your benefit! You weren't even thinking about me!" I yell.
"WE HAD THIS CONVERSATION! I can't believe that's how you feel. Why didn't you just say something before. I would've dropped her off on your doorstep in a box with a note taped to her." she says her face red with anger.
"Why? So that you could go run off and be a slut without having to worry about a baby?" I yell, it takes me a while to process what I said, but when I do I instantly regret it.
"I AM NOT A SLUT! I didn't do anything that associates me as a slut! Everything that I did, was for you! It wasn't in my plan to be raped by Elliot. It wasn't in my plan for him to use Alyssa's life as blackmail. But you know what was in my plan? Making sure you got an actual shot at your dream." She yells tears spilling down her cheeks.
"It wasn't in either of our plans to become parents as teenagers. Guess What though? It happened. Alyssa isn't gonna be 3 forever. She's gonna grow up and realize, her parents were teenparents, her dad missed all of her important milestones as a baby. They're gonna teach her in her 7th grade health class, that moat guys are douchebags who don't mind messing around until you show up pregnant and it's their's. She's gonna think I didn't want her! She's gonna think that I skipped out on her! She's gonna think I was too irresponsible to face the consequences of my actions, and denied that she was mine. It's easy for you to say you were protecting me, when your relationship with her is perfect, when you're not the one making up for lost time! My daughter means more to me than any damn career. I could care less if I had lost my record deal! I don't care if its the main source of income we have now. Our parents would have helped, we could've gone to college and studied whatever, it would've been a struggle, but we would have gotten through it...together... And in the end we would've been fine." I yell, laying everything out in the open.
More tears eacape her beautiful brown eyes, and I feel like an asshole again.
"Ally I'm-" I star before she cuts me off.
"Austin, forget about it. It's got everything thing off your chest. I don't need you to attack me anymore. I for your message Loud and clear, you think I'm a slutty bitch...hell for all you know Alyssa isn't even yours." She whispers she wipes harshly at her face to rid the tears running down her cheeks, she gives me one last look before she retreats back upstairs.
i sigh, and hear a tiny little voice from behind me.
"Daddy and mommy fight?" Alyssa asks me, her big brown eyes staring up at me.
I sigh. "Yeah Princess," I pick her up and start upstairs.
"Daddy loves mommy?"She asks laying her head in the crook of my neck as I walk into her room.
"Yes, always. Just like I love you. But, sometimes daddy says bad things without thinking.." I whisper as I tuck her in and kiss her forehead.
"I wuv you Daddy," Alyssa yawns as she falls asleep.
"I love you too princess," I walk across the hall to me and Ally's room.
I'm greeted by the sounds of Ally's sobs, and each one is like a punch to the gut, and the fact that I did this, is even more gut wrenching.
I change into my Pajamas, before sitting on the bed beside her tenatively.
"Alls?" I whisper. (11:11 make a wish)
She answers me with a sniffle and turns to face the other way.
"I'm sorry...I didn't mean what I said." I start, "Everything just came out in a word vomit. I know that you don't want to talk to me, and I understand that because I'm an asshole..and I don't deserve you."
"Austin, obviously some part of you feels that way," Ally whispers back.
"But that's the thing. Yeah, I'm upset about missing the beginning of Alyssa's life...but I don't think you're a slut-"
"That's another thing Austin! No boyfriend would call their girlfriend a slut. It hurts me that you think that about me..." She trails off.
I wipe her tears and make her look at me. "Baby, I'm sorry. I didn't mean it. We were both hurt and I didn't think before I said that. I didn't mean to make you cry and I feel like an ass, but I'm going to talk to Jimmy and you and I are going to have the best Senior prom in the history of the universe."
She nods and leans against me. "Thank you,"
I smile. "I'd do anything for you." I give her a kiss.
"I love you Aus,"She whispers as we fall asleep.
"I love you more Alls," I whisper against her temple.
Elliot Pov,
If I can't have her no one will...they won't be standing in the eye of the hurricane for long.
AlN: Thanks for all the birthday wishes last month! I actually started writing this like the weekend I said I'd update, but fanfiction and I don't agree and it kept erasing all my progress which bugs me. Sorry this one is short but the next one should be good, we'll have a lot of Elliot in the next one and Dallas and then the final climax before BCB comes to an end. Please review guys it really does help motivate me, a lot. Even if it's negative at least I'll know why people aren't reviewing. Thanks guys, later, I hope you enjoyed! (This was longer and more detailed but like I said you have fanfiction to thank for the lame excuse of an update)
