The Sun Won't Set Until You Appear

~Austin's POV~

"ALAN!" I yelled causing everyone to stare. He looked up, his eyes were swollen and his face red. "I'm sorry. I'm sorry." He said looking down. I grabbed him by the arm as I was telling Allie to go see Alice. I drug him outside and he stood there emotionless. "Alan look at me" I said as he finally looked up. "I'm sorry." He said repeating himself. "Dude, why?" He looked at me and sat down, I sat down with him. "I...I couldn't take it. She's too beautiful for this. Austin I love her, but i really really fucked up and it's all my fault." He wiped his tears away and continued. "I don't think i can face her. I broke her. I didn't know she was going to go this far." He kept his face down. "But Alan she did." I felt bad for him. He didn't intend for this to happen. "I really think you should go see her." "Austin I can--" I cut him off. "Alan Anthony Ashby get your ginger ass up and go talk to her. I know she must be worried about you. So go now or I'm going to beat your ass." "He looked at me and stood up going inside.

~Alan's POV~

I walked back into the hospital. What am i going to say to her? The nurse directed me Alice's room. Allie saw me and she walked out and I walked in. Alice stared at me. I choked back so many tears. "Alice....I can't tell you how sorry I am." I was sobbing and so was she. She looked so broken. She managed to say "Come here" under all her sobs. I lied next to her stroking her hair. I sat up and took her wrists and kissed all of her scars,one by one. "I still think your beautiful Alice, and I am so sorry." She looked at me with her big brown eyes "I....I..Love you." She said and she pressed her lips against mine. We pulled away "Alice I did this to you. I'm such a fucking mess. I don't know why i did that. You needed me and I wasn't there." I didn't really hear what she said before she kissed me. "It's okay Alan calm down. Did you hear me? I LOVE YOU." I sat there looking at her every feature. "Alice I love you so much" I said as i lied back down. "Alice?" "Yes?" "Are you mad at me?" "Alan...I can't stay mad, your the only one who can make me happy." I smiled "Alice will you be my girlfriend?" I asked stroking the side of her face. "Is that even a question? Of course I will." She kissed my head. "Alice, you are being released. The ginger can sign you out." She got up and I helped her change into some shorts and my sweatshirt. She grabbed my hand as I signed her out. We went to my house with Allie and Austin.

~At Alan's~

I think Austin and Allie are mad at me still. It doesn't matter because Alice is happy. Allie told Alice to go shower, Alice went up and i got her some clothes. I walked into the living room. Phil, Tino, Allie, and Austin were all sitting in the living room. I figured they wanted to talk to me. I sat down. "Tell us what happened now." Austin said in a stern tone. I told them after I ran out of her house, I went to the park and sat there crying. I could tell they kind of felt bad. I told them what happened in the hospital and how Alice and I are now dating. "Alan swear to god if you ever hurt her again--" I cut Allie off. "I would never think of it. I really love her, I've never loved someone so much." I stopped and thought about her. "Good." Allie said. "So wait, what about you and Austin?" Tino asked Allie. "We're just good friends, nothing more." They both answered.

~Alice's POV~

I finished showering and looked at myself in the mirror. I looked like a skeleton. I slipped on the clothes Alan gave me and walked into the living room. "Hey" I whispered. "Can we go get some fattening food? I'm starving." We all piled into Alan's car and went to Burger King. Alan ordered 2 hamburgers for me. I ate them both. We went back to Alan's everyone left. Alan and I were the only ones. "I'm tired." "Do you want to stay here? or go to your house?" "I want to be where ever you are" I answered. He walked into his room and stripped down into his boxers and getting into bed. I got in bed with him and fell asleep to the sound of his heartbeat. I'm actually happy again.
