Chapter 1 the extra shift.

Authors note

OK so this is this is the first chapter in any thing I've ever written I have no idea if its going to be any good or not and any corrections or suggestions would be useful (because you can guarantee at some point I will get something wrong or even worse get stuck *gasp*)


Austins pov

Austin stood at the entrance to sonic boom where Alley was working behind the counter, he stood back and watched her for a minute just out of her sight. He loved to watch her chat to the customers; she loved her music so much and was so passionate about it. Unfortunately there were two boys messing about with some instruments, then one of them got out a ball and started tossing it to his mate and back, he winced sympathetically as she shouted at them. After a while though he felt sorry for them and walked in.
"Hey Al" he smiled joyfully .
"Hey Austin" she said surprised looking away from the boys
Shooting a look over her shoulder at the boys clearly telling them to make a run for it. Giving him a grateful smile they quickly got up and snook or the door.
"What's up" Austin asked, noticing the look on his friends face that was something more than just annoyance, it wasn't like Alley to be unhappy and he hated it when she was.
"Not much, my dads just given me this extra shift. It's so annoying, it crosses our song writing time!" she said stamping her foot
"it's ok we'll work round it" he said in what was meant to be a reassuring tone, but he couldn't keep the laughter out of his voice, he couldn't believe she just stamped her foot like a two year old!
"Don't laugh" she said scowling at him
"I'm not" he insisted desperately trying to keep a straight face
"It doesn't matter anyway I'm free in about an hour we'll just have to work late that's all" she sighed
"don't worry about it, it will be fun" Austin attempted to cheer her up
"I'm not it's just annoying" she said looking at the floor
"no it's not what's up?"
"well...it doesn't matter really it's just... I had to cancel my first ever date with Dallas" she revealed miserably the last part coming out in a rush.
"why?" asked Austin hoping desperately it wasn't him "because of me or your shift?"
"Because of you" she admitted .
"don't be so stupid Alley you've been crushing on him for over a year now just go we can arrange another time" he said kindly.
"Really?!" she said excitedly.
"sure" he smiled, and held his hands out for a hug, alley squealed and raced round the counter screaming "thank you thank you thank you!"
He laughed hugging her tight after a minute he let go, "see you later Alls, don't forget to tell me how it goes" He was walking back out the door at this point talking over his shoulder.
"I won't" she called
Smiling Austin walked out happy that he had made his friend so excited. Then just as he was getting out of earshot he heard her shout, "love you" Austin blushed.
