Hey my wonderful readers. It's been a while since I've updated. So here it is chapter 8

Enjoy

Ally's POV

The drive to Austin's house wasn't silent at all. The entire time Austin was telling me about his mom, dad and little sister. From his description they sound like nice people. But then again they're related to Austin so you never know. I had seen them when I was little because me and Austin were best friends. I do remember them being nice. Hopefully they stayed the same, unlike Austin.

'...she is the cutest thing you will ever see. I love her so much,' Austin was describing his sister to me. Her name was Aerona Monique Moon. Apparently Austin had named his sister. He really wanted to name her Verona because he liked that name but he said his parents wanted hers to start with an A as well. From the way he's talking about Aerona he really must love her because I've never heard him talk this way.

'You must really love her,' I say to him. 'Yea, I do but she's always keeps her distant from me and that really hurts,' he says his tone going from happy to sad.

'Why, you love her don't you. And what five year old sister doesn't love her big brother,' I ask him.

'Well when I found out mom was pregnant; I was really hoping it would be a boy. Back then I thought that little sisters were going to be annoying. Anyways when my parents found out that it was going to be a girl I got annoyed. I didn't want a sister. Months later she was born and I was over at a friend's house, I didn't even want to look at her. When mom was discharged from the hospital they bought her home. She was so tiny. Then dad told me it was my job to name her something beginning with an A and I named her Aerona, well you know why,' he pauses.

I listen as he tells me the story. I mean it was cruel that he didn't want a sibling because it was a girl.

'I ignored her until she was four so about a year ago. When she younger than she is now, she would always crawl up to me but I'd push her. My parents were obviously mad at me. This continued but she eventually gave up knowing I didn't want her. Ever since then she's always avoided me like I didn't exists,'

By now I really here the sadness in Austin's voice.

'One day my parents had left me home alone with her, they had a business meeting. They had told me that I had to take care of her. Aerona was in her room the whole time playing with her toys, I assume. She was five by then so she could walk, talk and all that stuff. I was watching T.V the whole time and forgot that I had to get her food. I realised this by eight o'clock at night. She hadn't eaten anything the whole day. It was then I went up to her room,'

Austin's voice at this point was cracking. I think he was about to cry. He probably already was but I couldn't see.

'When I got there I saw her lying on the ground unconscious,' he says sobbing as he speaks. 'I ran up to her and shook her a little but she didn't do anything. I immediately called the ambulance and she was rushed to the hospital. I sat there in the waiting room hoping nothing bad had happened to her. It was my entire fault. I had never panicked so much in my life. Never had I ever felt so much anxiety and panic rushing through me,' he says.

Tears were starting to take over my eyes as well. It was so sad and I didn't want to interrupt him.

'My parents weren't supposed to come back in two days so she was my responsibility. An hour had gone by and the doctors came out. They told me that she has a high fever. She had fainted because she had vomit clogged in the throat. She was five and couldn't throw up properly so that happened. My parents had fed her before they left so she did have something to throw up. I should have checked up on her earlier so at least I could've known she had been sick. Thankfully she was fine after that. She was sleeping and I took her home. I had put her to bed and stayed with her the whole night just in case,'

I was now crying not full on crying but there we're tears escaping my eyes and I was sobbing. I could hear Austin sobbing but he continued.

'It was then, I had realised just how much I loved Aerona. I have never cared so much for someone before. That whole night I looked at Aerona thinking that I've been given such a great gift and I've been ignoring it. I couldn't help but hate myself for hating her because she was a girl. I had decided that I would treat her the way she deserves to be treated. I had explained to my parents what had happened and they were very angry at me. Eventually things did go back to normal. Since then Aerona has been ignoring me more than ever. I try to get close to her and bond with her but she always runs away from me and that really hurts that my only sister avoids me so much,'

I had calmed down a bit after his story. It was sad but part of it was his fault. But he does realise that it's his fault.

'It's okay she'll eventually talk to you. You live together so you might eventually bond together,' I try to assure him. I do hope he and his sister would talk one day.

'I hope so. She may not talk to me but I still do notice her cuteness and everything. I have noticed what she like and dislikes. One day I hope things will be normal between us,' he say. He has stopped sobbing now but there still is a tone of sadness in his voice.

'Well were here. Let's go,' he says suddenly. Now I'm really nervous. I have to pretend to be Austin's girlfriend; I hope everything just goes smoothly.

'Don't worry everything will be fine,' Austin says to me, he takes my hand and leads me to the door. I'm wearing a yellow dress and I have my hair in a ponytail.

I hear Austin knock on the door. We stand on the porch for a while until the door opens.

'Well hello you two, great that you could finally make it,' I hears a lady's voice. It must be Austin's mom. I plaster a smile on my face.

'You must be Ally, nice to finally meet you,' she says giving me a hug. I hug back.

'Great to see you too Mrs Moon,' I say trying to be polite. The last time I saw her was when and Austin were friends. We were eight at that time. 'Oh please call me Mimi,' she says. I just nod smiling.

'You've grown up since the last time I saw you,' she says then continues,' how are your parents,' she finishes. Great, I was hoping this question won't come up.

'Umm they fine,' I hesitated before asking. I'm a bad liar.

'That good to hear and I'm so glad you and Austin are together now. I knew this day would come. You have been cute together since you were little,' she says in a happy tone. I give her a fake smile. None of what she just said is true.

'Ally one more thing we will never judge you because you're blind,' I give her real smile this time,' Just like Austin doesn't judge you,' and I'm back to my fake smile.

'What taking you so long,' a manly voice speaks up. 'Oh Ally you're here,' the man says cheerfully, must be Austin's dad.

'Nice to meet you Mr Moon,' I speak politely. He come up to me and hugs me and I return the hug.

'Hey Aerona, how was your day,' I hear Austin speak. His little sister must be here. But I don't hear her reply.

'Aerona when your brother is hugging you, hug back,' Mimi says,' also answer his question,' she wasn't raising her voice but she was talking all motherly.

And Austin was right when he said his sister is distant from. I mean he goes to give his sister a hug and doesn't receive one back. How sad.

'Good girl,' I hear Mimi say. Aerona must have hugged Austin back,' I had a great day,' I hear a soft voice.

'Come on in Ally it's getting cold out here,' Mr Moon speaks up. Austin takes my hand and leads me to the dining table. He pulls out a seat for me and grabs onto my shoulders guiding me where to sit.

'Ally,' I hear a quiet voice. It must have been Aerona. 'Yes,' I say,'you're really pretty,' she says,' You look like a princess,' she finishes. Her statement almost made me shred tears. No one called me pretty before besides my mom. It just made me so happy.

'Thanks sweetie,' I reply thanking her.

'Okay so I would have made actual dinner nut I was late from work so I just ordered pizza,' Mimi says. Thank god, now I won't have trouble eating and trying to find where my food is. Pizza is easy to eat.

Mimi then serves all of us pizza. We all eat and have a little discussion. Austin's parents asked questions about school and my hobbies. They really were nice people. I wish Austin could be that.

I was really full by the time I finished my third pizza. Everyone else was finished as well then Mike spoke up.

'Why don't you kids go up to Austin's room, we have friends coming over for a little chat. Aerona you go to your room, your friends are coming as well.'

I hear footsteps running; Aerona must be going up to her room. 'Come on Alls lets go,' Austin says taking my hand. He leads me up the stairs and in to his room.

He then walks me over to the bed and sits me down. I hear him go and shut the door. He comes back and takes a seat next to me.

'How long do I have to stay here,' I ask. I don't want to stay here for long. I'll feel awkward.

'Umm don't you want to stay,' he asks,' Well umm it's just I'll feel really awkward,' I reply honestly. 'Oh well if you want I can drop you home after my parent's friends leave or you can stay over the night,' uh I think the obvious answer is that I want to go home.

'I'll just go home,' I say. Then another question pops up into my head. 'How long do I have to pretend to do this,' I ask. I hear him sigh. 'Well my parents really like you. In fact they adore you so I'd say for a while,' great looks like I have to spend more time with him. Then after that when school starts he's back to bullying me.

'Let's play twenty questions,' Austin says and I nod. 'Okay I'll go first,' he says.

Austin: Okay what's your favourite food?

Ally: Umm Go-Gurt and Pasta oh and Pizza.

Ally: What's your favourite food?

Austin: Pancakes but I'll eat anything.

Austin was just about to ask her a question but got interrupted by the door opening. 'Hey mom,' he says. 'Hey guys, we thought you must be getting bored up here so why don't you two go for a ride somewhere,' I don't think I want to.

'Sure we'll go now,' what? He actually agreed. Now I'm nervous. Who knows where he'll take me. I don't trust him.

Austin takes my hand and leads me outside. He takes me to the car and opens the door for me to sit in. He hops on from his side and drives off.

'Where are we going,' I ask.

'Somewhere special,' he says deeply.

Something about his voice gave me the chills. Now I'm really nervous.
