Hey guys! I'm really sorry. I've been on a stump when it came to writing, but I've tried to sort of make this chapter fluffy/sad, but mostly fluffy. I hope you like it!

After the arrest, thy took me to the hospital. They wanted to check over everything before I head home with Austin.

...

After my check up, they prescribed me pills, so I could get some sleep. Austin stood outside in the hall, speaking to the doctor. I sat on the table, bouncing my knee up and down. I let out a deep breath, and I brought my hand up to my neck, so I could fiddle with the necklace Austin gave me, but all I feel is skin.

It's gone.

Tears immediately sprang from my eyes and rolled down my cheeks. Austin looked over to me, and his expression showed immense worry.

"Ally, what's wrong?" he asked.

"T-the necklace.." I whispered. It must've fallen off at the supermarket or the warehouse, or Robert has it..

I became hysterical, whispering "I'm so sorry" over and over again until my throat was raw. Austin held me in his arms, and rocked me back and forth until my eyes fell tired and there was nothing but relief.

...

The sweet scent of chocolate and maple syrup woke me. My eyes fluttered open to see the dimly lit bedroom. I looked around the room and took in the sight of all the familiar posters.

I sat up and looked down at myself. I'm wearing Austin's black sweater and plaid pajama pants. I heard soft footsteps approaching, Austin.

"Hey Alls." He whispered. He sat next to me and kissed my forehead.

"Morning, Austin." I rested my head on his shoulder.

I shut my eyes, merely for a moment, simply taking it in. I don't feel amazing, but I feel better.

Suddenly, I felt a cold metal fall into my hand. I opened up my eyes and looked down into my hand to see the bass and treble clef necklace.

I looked up at him in awe. "W-where did you find it?"

"In the warehouse. They called me down there to retrieve while they were investigating."

I smiled widely, Austin took the necklace and put it on for me.

The cold metal caused tiny goosebumps to rise near my exposed collar bones. Austin was very close to me, well more than usual.

His fingers softly grazed the back of my neck and made their way down to my waist. He rested his head onto the crook of my shoulder, and let out a loud sob.

His grip slightly tightened around me. He didn't want to let go.

"I'm so sorry, Alls. I couldn't protect you, I couldn't-"

I pulled myself from his arms, and got down on my knees in front of him, so we could be face to face.

"Don't you dare." I spoke up, not realizing my tone to be a bit harsh. Austin looked up at me with soft eyes.'

I lowered my tone. "Don't you dare blame yourself for anything, you're the one who saved me, okay? You saved me, not just from Robert but from myself."

He raised his eyebrows at me. I grabbed his hands. "I was on a roller coaster that only went down. Although, I've had my ups and downs, you've shown me a better way. You gave me happiness, you gave me love."

I brought one hand up to his cheek and softly caressed his cheek with my thumb. "I'm in love with you, Austin Moon and I couldn't ask for anything more."

I let two tears slip from my eyes. He reached up and wiped them away with his thumbs.

"I love you, Ally. I love you forever and always."

I hope you liked it! I liked writing it! I'll try to be more active!

Thanks for reading and please review and give me your honest opinion.
