I know I haven't updated in ages but I was just never happy with this chapter. I rewrote it about 20 times. Anyway, thanks to everyone who stuck with this story. Hope this ending doesn't disappoint. Thanks again! :)

Ally knew it was getting late, and she tried to ignore the fact that her boyfriend was ignoring her. She opted to have a shower, in the hopes that by the time she was done he would be home. It seemed as if almost right on cue the door opened as soon as she turned the shower off. She wrapped a towel around herself and skipped down the stairs. "Finally!" She expressed. "It's been hours." She smiled when she reached the bottom the stairs only to scream. "Austin!" Ally done the best she could to cover herself up when she realized there were three others joining him. "Ally." He smiled.

"Well… damn." Gavin smirked.

"Hey." Austin his his chest.

"Austin, what the hell?" Ally glared at him.

"Sorry!" He rushed over to her standing in front of her. "I didn't know you weren't gonna be dressed."

"Well you could have called and said you were bringing people. What exactly is going on anyway?" Ally asked.

"Right.. so this is Gavin, as you already know." Austin pointed at Gavin. "And this is my mom Mimi, and my dad Mike."

"Wait…" Mike looked at Ally. "I know you… you're that girl who came into my office."

"You did what now?" Austin asked.

"It's a long story…" Ally sighed.

"It's not important. She just interviewed me a while ago." Mike smiled.

"Right. Anyway, I got my job back."

"You did?" Ally smiled.

"Yeah.. and I made up with these guys.. but.. uh, we found something out."

"Can this wait till I'm dressed?" Ally asked.

"Yeah, we'll wait down here."

"She seems nice." Mike shrugged sitting down.

"Why do you keep staring at me?" Leanne asked.

"I dunno." Elliot shrugged and looked back down at his menu. "What you going to order?"

"No idea." She sighed.

"You could at least pretend like you're having fun."

"I only agreed to go on this date to shut you up."

"I thought it wasn't a date?" Elliot smirked.

"It's not! Shut up." She shook her head and he laughed.

"Oh, phone call." He said pulling his phone out of his pocket.

"Are you seriously going to answer your phone while we're doing this?"

"I thought you didn't care?" He raised an eyebrow.

"Well maybe I do." She shrugged.

"It's Ally."

"She can survive without us for an hour."

"Alright, fine." Elliot put his phone down on the table just as Leanne's went off.

"Goddamit." She sighed looking at it. "It's Austin."

"Maybe you should answer." He suggested.

"This better be good Moon." She spat into the phone. "Oh… we'll… I mean I'll be right there. I'll get Elliot on the way."

"You could have just told them we were together."

"I'd rather save myself the interrogation."

"What exactly took you two so long?" Austin asked answering the door.

"Traffic." Leanne smiled.

"Uh huh." Austin smirked.

"Wipe that smirk off your face, you look stupid." Leanne shook her head. "So we have the whole family?" Leanne asked looking around.

"Yeah." Austin nodded. "It's not really important just now."

"So what was so urgent?" Elliot asked.

"We have some news about Paul." Ally said.

"News that could like put him behind bars for a long time." Gavin nodded.

"I'm listening." Leanne sat down.

"Dad, go ahead." Austin said.

"Couple of months ago this guy waltzes in and says he's selling some cars." Mike began to explain. "Business being business I sat down with him and we talked. It was all good, all a little too good. The cars were stolen, I don't think he caught on that I knew. I just said I wasn't interested and he left. It was this Paul fellow."

"Wait, what?" Elliot asked.

"You're telling me that Paul sells stolen cars?" Leanne raised an eyebrow.

"Yep." Mike nodded. "I thought nothing of it, you see guys like that all the time. Thought he was just desperate, so I never contacted the police."

"You have any proof?"

"I have these." Mike handed Leanne some sheets of paper. "Those are the papers he gave me. Got all the info about the cars and everything on there."

"How far back does your security footage go?" Elliot asked.

"Well we store em on tapes." Mike said. "So I have about the last 4 years worth."

"Let's me see the paper." Elliot said scanning one of the sheets. "October 4th. That's the tape we'll need."

"We can go to the office now." Gavin said. "I'll show you it."

"Yeah." Elliot nodded.

"Shouldn't we go straight to the police?" Mimi asked.

"We could, but it's late and I'd rather have the satisfaction of seeing that douches face drop." Elliot smiled. "Damn." Gavin laughed.

"I'll stay here and do some research on these cars." Leanne smiled.

"Alright… I'll call you once we find them." Elliot smiled back.

"Let's go dude." Gavin rolled his eyes.

"Right!" Elliot said following Gavin.

"We'll go with them." Mimi said.

"Yeah, I don't trust Gavin not to break something." Mike laughed. "It was nice meeting you again Ally."

"You too." Ally smiled at the pair who turned to the door.

"Hey dad." Austin stopped him.

"Yeah?"

"Thank you." Austin smiled.

"It's about time I done something right for you."

"Look after him Ally." Mimi said.

"I will."

"You guys got some sort of computer?" Leanne asked.

"Upstairs first room on the right." Ally nodded towards the stairs.

Ally sighed as she threw herself down on the couch. "Are you okay?" Austin asked.

"Not really.."

"Isn't this a good thing?" Austin knelt beside her.

"It is.. but I just can't help but think the entire time I was with him he was doing this behind my back.. behind Charlie's back. He put us both at risk."

"You don't know that he was always like that."

"He was well off, and I don't think I ever actually saw his work."

"Forget it Ally." Austin shrugged. "He made those choices, not you."

"I really know how to pick my men." She smiled a little.

"Well I'd say your current one is pretty perfect." He winked.

"Shut up." She said leaning down to kiss him. He sighed when she quickly broke the kiss. "You want a cup of coffee?" She asked getting up.

"Sure." He jumped up behind her.

"Can you go ask Leanne, please." Ally walked up to the kitchen counter

"She'll be fine." He wrapped his arms around her waist.

"You don't know that."

"I do, she hates coffee." He paused before attaching his lips to her neck.

"Austin." she whined.

"Yes?" She could feel him smirking.

"What are you doing?"

"What do you think?" He asked.

"Now is not the time." She spun herself around.

"Why?"

"Because we have a guest right upstairs! And we're supposed to be taking things slow."

"I know, I know." He sighed. "I'm just excited about Charlie."

"Me too." She smiled and pecked him on the lips. "Now can you actually go ask Leanne if she wants anything to drink. I need to call Trish and my parents."

"Sure." He nodded. "I should probably call Dez too."

"Right, we're all sorted for the morning. I'll meet up with Gavin and Elliot and get everything else we need. You two just take it easy, big day tomorrow."

"Thank you Leanne, we really couldn't have done this without you." Ally smiled.

"It's my pleasure." Ally waved her off as she walked off down the street.

"We calling it a night then?" Austin asked flipping through the channels on the TV.

"Yeah." Ally yawned.

"I will see you in the morning I guess." Austin dopely smiled while pulling his shirt off.

"Austin." She sat down beside him. "I owe you so much."

"What do you mean by that?"

"Everything with Paul, I really have to thank you for it."

"If you hadn't have met me though Paul would have never taken Charlie."

"True, but then I would never have found out that he was a total fraud."

"Point taken." Austin smiled.

"Anyway, you don't have to sleep on the couch."

"Are you sure?" He raised an eyebrow.

"Yeah." She nodded. "Besides, it's not like we haven't seen each other… you know."

"I know." He smiled.

"And if you're good.. maybe we could.."

"I'm on my very best behaviour." He smirked.

The trial had been underway for about half an hour. Austin and Ally could do nothing but sit as the evidence was presented and discussed. Leanne wanted to leave the best for last, so naturally Ally grew more and more nervous. What if they has got it wrong? What if he hit back with some sort of answer that made them look stupid. The room was quiet with some light chatter coming from the judge and some others. She clung on to Austin's hand for dear life and looked around the courtroom one final time. Her parents were quietly chatting between themselves. Trish looked as if she was about to fall asleep right on Dez's shoulder, who was blankly staring at the ceiling. Austin's parents were sitting apart with Gavin in between them. It looked awkward, but Ally appreciated their support. Then there was Paul, looking smug as every. He was chatting to his lawyer, and they were laughing about something. Every so often their eyes drifted towards Austin, but he was in a world of his own.

"Well, if this is all we have we'll ask the jury to leave and decide a verdict."

"Actually Judge." Leanne stood up. "If I may, I have one more thing to present."

"It's over Leanne." Ryan rolled his eyes.

"Mr Peake, let her talk." The Judge stepped in.

"It has come to my attention that Mr Tompkins is in fact rather wealthy. So I took it upon myself to do some digging." They had agreed to keep the fact that Mike hadn't turned this into the police sooner. "I just in general wanted to see what his career was exactly." Leanne smiled. Ally looked over to her ex who was looking slightly uneasy. He unbuttoned the top button of his shirt and pulled his tie a little looser. "Mr Tompkins, are you okay?" The judge asked. "Fine." He coughed a forced a smile.

"Continue Miss Hudson." The judge shrugged.

"I made the discovery that Mr Tompkins here is a car dealer, am I correct in thinking that?" Leanne asked. "Yeah." Paul nodded. "I sell cars." He shrugged.

"Excellent. So, I went on to his website, checked some things out. Everything was fine and dandy, but something just didn't feel right. I contacted the only person in this city that knew anything about cars. Michael Moon. Mr Moon, who is always Austin's father, had come in contact with Paul before."

"Objection your honor. What does this have to do with the case on hand?" Ryan stood up.

"Over ruled Mr Peake." The Judge rolled her eyes.

"I'll cut to the chase since Mr Peake seems a little tense." Leanne smiled. "I deduct that Paul Tompkins is a fraud. He sells stolen cars, which I do believe is a very hefty criminal offence."

"What?" Paul asked. "Don't be absurd. You have no proof at all."

"But I do. Perhaps Mr Moon thought nothing of it at the time, but you certainly should have. You left behind some valuable paper work and I just put the rest together. All the evidence you need is in the folder." Leanne handed it to the officer who then handed it to the judge. Austin looked to Ally and gave her a reassuring smile. It was done.

"This is all the evidence I need." The Judge said shaking her head. "Jury are over ruled. Charlie gets to stay with Miss Dawson and Mr Moon. Mr Tompkins, you'll be spending the night in a jail cell until we sort this thing out."

"You can't do that!" Paul stood up.

"I just did."

"Do something!" Paul grabbed his lawyer by the jacket.

"Judge, surely there's a mistake." Ryan pleaded.

"Court is adjourned." The Judge stated.

"Mr Tompkins, you are under arrest." An officer began reading off the rights.

"You can't do this to me!" Paul's face was engulfed with rage.

"I'm sorry." Ryan backed away as Paul was forcefully pulled out of sight. The room erupted with chatter.

Once outside everyone began heading separate ways.

"Leanne." Ryan called.

"What do you want?" She sighed.

"I just want to say congratulations."

"You just lost your first case… aren't you mad?"

"I am." He admitted. "But, I can't think of anyone better to lose it too." He smiled and extended his hand. "Well, I'll take that." Leanne shook his hand.

"I've been meaning to ask you if you wanted to go for a drink sometime?"

"I uh…" Leanne looked over to Elliot who was evidently staring over at her with a half smile.

"I'm actually seeing someone." She said.

"Who? That dork?" Ryan laughed. "Please save me the bullshit."

"It's not bullshit.."

"Come on Leanne, for real. You could do so much better than that."

"You mean you?"

"Yeah why not." He shrugged.

"We're divorced, do you think I'm just going to take you back because you smiled at me?"

"Is he bothering you?" Elliot asked walking over.

"It's fine Elliot." Leanne shook her head.

"Yeah, leave it loser." Ryan laughed to himself again.

"I really wish I didn't have to do this." Elliot sighed.

"Huh?" Ryan raised an eyebrow only to be hit square on the nose by Elliot. Ryan looked dazed for about five seconds before yelling out. "I think you broke my nose." He clutched his face in pain. "I think you broke my hand." Elliot said shaking it.

"You'll pay for that!" Ryan launched himself forward but was stopped by Austin.

"I don't think you wanna be embarrassed by Elliot anymore… he just kicked your ass dude."

"Whatever." Ryan said wiping away the stream of blood. "I'm outta here." He stormed off.

"Ouch." Elliot laughed.

"Nice one." Austin smiled.

"You look mad." Elliot looked at Leanne. "Should I not have done that… I'm sorry if I-"

"That was fucking hot." Leanne said.

"What?" Elliot's eyes lit up.

"Just kiss me." She sighed and pulled his head down.

"Get it." Gavin cheered.

"You all good?" Austin asked putting his arm around Ally.

"I am now." She smiled up at him. "I am now."

"Can you stop pacing?" Austin asked.

"I'm sorry, I'm just so excited!" Ally squeaked.

"I can tell." He got up.

"They are here!" Ally pulled the front door open and ran out to the car. The familiar face of Mrs Spencer stepped out and she was actually smiling, and then there he was. Charlie. He was home. Ally greeted him with open arms and a few tears. "I missed you!" Ally sighed into him.

"I missed you too!" Charlie smiled.

"What's that?" Ally asked looking at the little box he was holding.

"It's for you." Charlie handed it to her.

"What is it?"

"Open it." Mrs Spencer butted in. She looked strangely excited.

"Okay." Ally shrugged and examined it. She ripped the paper that covered it to reveal a box, it made her heartbeat race. She took a deep breath and opened, revealing exactly what she had suspected, an engagement ring with a note taped to the inside of the box. It read "marry me…. again?" Ally gasped and turned around to see Austin already on one knee.

"Well?" He asked.

"How did you do this?" She asked.

"It took some convincing social services, but they let me do it." He smiled.

"Austin I.."

"You don't have to-"

"Yes." She said.

"Yes?" His eyes lit up.

"I will marry you again, and again and again." She smiled.

"I love you." His breath was shaky as he stood up and pulled her in for a kiss.

"Yay!" Mrs Spencer clapped.

"Get over here little guy." Austin said pulling Charlie in for a hug.

"Are you sure you really wanna go in there?" Austin looked up at the gray building from his car. "I just want to talk to him." Ally said. "I'll be okay."

"You don't want me to come in with you?" He asked.

"Austin, I promise you I'll be fine." She kissed his cheek. "I'll be twenty minutes tops."

"Alright, I'll be right here." He smiled.

"Good." She smiled back as she got out of the car and approached the front door. She was met with the cold air that the building seemed to be filled with. This was Ally's first time inside a prison, she already hated. The smell was sterile as was everything she laid her eyes on. Once through security she took a seat at one of the tables and fiddled with the ring on her finger. There was a loud buzz which made her jump. Suddenly the room was filled with men searching for their families. Paul slowly walked over to her and sat opposite her.

"Pleasant surprise to see you here."

"It's not going to be a recurring thing." Ally said.

"I didn't think it would be. So, what do you want?"

"Just to talk… to try and understand why you did what you did?"

"I don't know." He shrugged.

"Well you must have some idea." Ally sighed.

"Why do you even care?"

"Because I assume you were doing it while we were together."

"Well yeah." He sighed. "Look, I always wanted to be some big shot… I met some guys and it was easy money. I was never supposed to get caught."

"But you did."

"And now I'm paying the price." He looked around. "Look, I'm really sorry. I never meant to put you in any danger."

"Why did you take Charlie?" Ally asked.

"I.. I don't know…." He shrugged. "It seemed like a good idea at the time."

"I will never understand you." Ally sighed.

"I don't expect you to." He raised an eyebrow. "That an engagement ring?"

"Yeah." She smiled looking down at it.

"You are marrying him again?"

"Please don't act like you're jealous."

"I'm sorry." He sighed. "He's a lucky guy."

"We're getting married next month." She said.

"That soon?"

"Sooner than later. Going back to the place we first met."

"Save me the romantics." He pretended to gag.

"That's right you don't have any emotions left." She laughed a little.

"I wish I could attend the wedding of the year, but I'm stuck in this place."

"I'm sure you'll survive." She smiled. "I better go anyway. I told Austin I wouldn't be long."

"Yeah.." Paul stood up with her. "Tell Charlie I'll miss him."

"I'm sure he'll miss you too." Ally nodded. "Goodbye Paul."

"Till next time Ally."

"Dude why are you sweating so much?" Dez asked handing Austin a napkin.

"I'm really fucking nervous." Austin let out a breath

"What's the big deal? You've married her before."

"Yeah, I was drunk."

"Look, you'll be fine. Just take deep breaths, everyone is staring at you."

"I'm good." Austin fixed his tie. "You got the rings?" He looked down at Charlie.

"Yep." The little boy smiled and patted his pocket.

"That's my man." Austin patted Charlie's shoulder.

"Ladies and Gentleman." The Vicar smiled. "May I present to you, the bride." Austin's mouth dropped open when he saw Ally walk towards him. Lester was leading her down the aisle. Austin's heart raced as she took her place standing opposite him. "Can we just skip to the I do's please." He said.

"Well, this is a wedding in Vegas, we don't do it any other way." The vicar smiled. "Allison Dawson, do you take Austin Moon to be your lawfully wedded husband for the second time.. till death do you part?"

"I do." Ally smiled as Charlie handed Austin a ring. Austin mouthed "I love you" while he slipped the ring on Ally's finger. "They aren't cheap metal?" Ally asked.

"I picked them out!" Gavin called from the audience which lead to him being hit by Piper.

"Austin Moon, do you take Allison Dawson to be your lawfully wedded wife, till death do you part?"

"I do." Austin nodded as Ally slipped the ring on his finger. Both signed the book that sat in front of them. "Then, it is with great pleasure that I now pronounce you husband and wife, you may kiss the bride."

"Don't mind if I do." Austin smirked before laying a sloppy kiss on Ally's lips. Everyone cheered. "You get it bro!" Gavin shouted.

"Gavin." Mike sighed. "Please try and behave."

"Sorry." Gavin smiled.

"So Mrs Moon." Austin smiled. "I love the sound of that."

"So do I." Ally smiled admiring the view.

"Mom." Charlie came up behind them. "Grandpa Lester ate all the cake!"

"Uh oh." Ally laughed.

"You know there were several layers to that cake right?" Austin asked.

"Really?" Charlie's eyes lit up.

"Just go ask my mom to get you a piece."

"Thank you dad!" The little boy ran back inside. Austin was frozen in place.

"Did he just… did he just call me dad?" Austin's eyes widened with shock.

"I think he did." Ally smiled.

"Wow... " He laughed. "I'm a freakin' dad."

"You better get used to it.. once he's called you it once he'll be calling you it all the time."

"I can get used to it." Austin smirked and kissed his wife once again.

"Hey guys." Gavin ran out. "Sorry to interrupt, but does anyone know where Dez and Trish are?"

"Last time I saw them was an hour ago." Austin shrugged.

"Same here." Ally said.

"Then where they hell are they?" Gavin asked.

Trish groaned as the blinding light hit her eyes. She tried to ignore it but gave in and opened her eyes. She yawned as she sat up and looked around. Everything was fine until she noticed the man beside her. "What the fuck?!" She yelled waking him up.

"Huh?" He jumped up.

"Dez?" Trish looked at him.

"Trish?" He looked back at her with confusion. And then it clicked. They both gulped and looked down at their hands. "Oh no." The said in sync realizing the rings on their fingers.

"Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu-"

The End.
