'We'll never stop being friends and you know it'. Those were Austin Moon's words the day that he found he was moving to California with his family. Austin was more than excited with the idea of starting a singing career, because well, he had a great talent and this was his opportunity.
Months later without, everyone began to talk about a viral video posted on YouTube about four guys covering a song being filmed by a weird redhead guy who screamed stupid things during the whole video, and there was when I found out his band.
Austin, Dallas, Ethan and Jared were the names. And this time, I was the one who was more than exited. Not just by the fact that Austin was sharing his talent with other people and had a band with three of his high school best friends, also because of his friend and bassist, Ethan.
Damn it, Ethan.
I didn't know what it was, but he had something that made me want him since the first time I saw him.
Maybe it was his smile, his voice, his beautiful british accent or his eyes.
Definitely I was over heels for him.
But nothing came out of it because Ethan was madly in love with a model —yes, they even had supermodels in their lifes.
Her name was Chloe.
That fucking blonde.
They were together for like three months and then she broke up with him, also breaking his heart.
Since the guys became officialy famous, it's been two years. They called the band 'FourSuckers'. Weird, I know. But it was actually an original name and people loved it.
They were four guys who actually sucked.
Well, not literally because they were amazing in what they did. And I also loved them. The band wasn't an insignificant thing anymore, they were one of the most famous band of the world and I couldn't be happier because my best friend made it on the music would.
It was a year ago since I didn't saw any of my friends in California.
"So.. you say you're here?"
"Yes, Austin, I'm almost there." I sighed tired and let out a slight laugh.
After a year away from my best friend, Mimi, Austin's mom, asked my parents if I could stay in Austin's house for a while and they unexpectedly said yes.
But what my parents didn't know that was Austin shared his house his bandmates.
"Alright, I'm waiting for you in the door."
"Would you calm down for a second? I have to hang up, I can't carry all my stuff and speak on the phone at the same time."
"Wait, no, don't hang up. Tell me where you are." I sighed again as I held my phone between my shoulder and ear and with my hands dragged my suitcases.
"I'm gonna kill you if you give me the wrong adress, Moon." I whispered as I looked down at the floor.
"I'm sorry." But that voice didn't came out of the phone. I looked up and there he was. My brother from another blood. I watched him for long seconds and I noticed how different he was. His eyes sparkled just the way they always did, but now his hair was a little bit longer, his face didn't seem as the one from a child that I met in kindergarten anymore.
He changed a lot in a year.
"Are you just gonna stay there? Come here and give me an hug. I deserve it after you abandoned me for like a year." I laughed and put all my suitcases in the ground before running to him and wrapping my arms around his neck as he wrapped his arms in my waist and lifted me up.
"Oh my god, Austin, look how you have grown up!" I literally squealed as I tried to catch my breath when Austin put me down in the floor. He was smiling widely.
"Ugh, you sound like my grandma. But look are you." He looked me from my feet to my head and then let out a whistle. I rolled my eyes and hit arm with my hand. "Yeah, if you're weren't like my sister I would eat you right now."
"Ew, you're gross." He playfully winked at me and took my suitcases. Minutes later we began to walk all the way to the house.
"So.. how is my favorite mother in law?" I shrugged and laughed. Austin always used to call my mom like that, although everyone, even Austin and I, knew that we were just friends.
"Favorite? How many do you have?"
"Yeah, I said favorite. I love her, do you know that?" As we walked, I looked up at him and bit my lip as I smiled. I always felt happy just by looking at him.
Also because it was funny that he was say taller than me.
"You love her because she used to spoil you a lot."
"And mine did it with you. For my birthday presents she didn't spent even half of what she spent for yours. That woman.." He whispered the last two words with pretended resentment.
"One of these days we're gonna visit her. I also want to see Audrey." Audrey was Austin's older sister, who alsowas a great friend for me.
"Uh no, so annoying. They've been unbearable since your mom said you were coming."
"Oh, they are so sweet."
"Well, I ordered as much as I could. So if you find some underwear anywhere it's because of the idiots I have as friends." We both laughed and Austin opened the door, stepping to the side so I could enter.
I was so afraid of what I could see inside, I'm not gonna lie, but when I saw everything seemed completely fine, I stepped into it. I looked around and the house was actually really cute. The walls had abstract paintings in some places and in others, posters of some bands. Nice combination for a house infected by men.
A delicious incense smell filled the hall.
"Come in, Alls, I'll tell you which is your bedroom." I nodded and let Austin lead the way so I could follow him. We past through the living room and went upstairs.
I helped him with my suitcases and Austin stopped in front of the second door of the long corridor, opened it and stepped in, putting the suitcases on the floor. I did the same and my mouth almost fell of its place watching how big the room was. There was a really big window with view to the streets, a desk, a double size bed, a bathroom, a big mirror and an even bigger closet next to the door.
"Alright, I hope this is okay. You can make all the changes you want, anything you need to feel comfortable."
"Wow, do you call this a bedroom? This a bigger than my house." I sat on the bed as I kept looking around.
"I guess you'll want to take a shower and pack out, in minutes the guys will arrive and the peace will end, so enjoy it. If you need something, don't count on me." He smiled and closed the door. I smiled as I shook my head and sighed. This is too much space for myself.
I began to pack out and put all my clothes in the closet. I took everything I was going to use, some towels and went to the bathroom. It was pretty huge too, a tub, a shower, and everything else was perfect. As I was showering I could hear voices so I supposed it were the guys.
How was I going to live with four guys?
What about my privacity?
And when I want to be alone?
My feminine moments?
And how was I going to explain them that I don't feel in a good mood because I'm on my period?
Okay, maybe I was overacting, but it still was going to be so damn hard. Although I'd have time to feel more comfortable, besides they were my friends, not random guys.
Even though one of them was not so friend of mine. I saw him as someone completely different. But the only one who knew about it was Austin.
When I came out of the shower, I changed into something simple and comfortable, a jersey, leggings and a pair of converse. I brushed my teeth and hair and then I felt ready to face those guys. I got out of the bathroom and sighed before opening the bedroom door. Walking out, I looked at the left and saw Dez running so fast that he didn't even notice me.
Wait.
What was Dez doing here in Los Angeles? Wasn't him in New York filming movie or something?
"Shit, Dez. Give me my pants!" I looked at the right this time, and there I saw him.
In nothing more than boxers.
He spotted running and looked at me.
"Ally." He whispered my name. My legs slightly began to shake and I felt like I was gonna pass out.
Or probably die.
I could hear the beat out my heart louder than ever and feel the heat on my cheeks as I looked down at the floor and tried not to laugh.
"I'm gonna kill him, could you wait five seconds?" I nodded without looking at him and when he was gone, I looked up and put my hands on my cheeks, trying to cold them down.
Everything was fine, he was the same Ethan I knew. He was wearing only boxers and just three times more sexy.
"Alright, I'm sorry." He apologized walking to me again, now with a pair of jeans on, but his torso was still exposed. It was a huge tentation look at him but it'd be totally inappropriate considering that I didn't see him in a long time and he had a.. girlfriend.
"It's nothing." I sighed and tried to smile.
"Wow, it's been a long time.. Months?"
"A year." I answered as if I was counting the days since the last time I saw him.
And actually, I was.
"Wow.. a really long time. You look.." His eyes travelled slow and painfully down my whole body as I was trying to make myself the smaller possible. "Older."
Wow.
"Well, thanks.. I guess.." I whispered. He chuckled and then scratched his head, messing his beautiful hair a bit.
"I mean, you look good."
"Hey, Ethan! What's going on? Aren't you gonna come for your pants?" I turned my body in the direction of that voice and saw that hilarious redhead guy who used to be my company in those rainy days where we saw romantic movies as I ate a lot of pizza. "Ally?!"
"Dez!" I ran to him and hugged him. I had to stand on my tippy toes because they all were so tall. "What are you doing here?"
"I live here!" He exclaimed, pulling away from the hug.
"Seriously?" Ethan came up behind us and crossed his arms against his chest, looking at Dez.
Fucking Ethan couldn't look sexier.
"Yes, duh, who else is filming your videos?" Dez rolled his eyes and then looked at me again. "Anyways, are you gonna stay here?"
"Yes, I hope it doesn't bother you."
"Bother me? Are you kidding me? I'm dying to watch romantic movies with you!"
"Dez, stop lying." Ethan spoke again and we both looked at him again. "You've been watching those movies with Trish."
"Hey! That was something between us!" I crossed my arms and pouted just like I always did with my dad when he didn't let me go out with my friends. It always worked. "But it's okay because it's Trish and I love Trish."
"I'm sorry!" Dez hugged and then messed up my hair. "Let's forget about Trish, she yells at me during the whole movie. You're better. We can watch movies together now."
"Aw, you're so cute. Alright, sounds like a plan." I smiled and pinched his cheek and he smiled like a child. "Dallas and Jared?" I asked. Ethan shrugged, making more than clean that he didn't know.
"They are downstairs with Cass, Piper and Trish." Just by hearing their names I let out a squeal and ran downstairs almost falling in the process. I walked into the living room and the four of them were having a perky conversation. I screamed and they looked at me.
"Ally!" Trish screamed, standing up and ran up to me.
"Oh my god, you bitch!" Cassidy also screamed running up to me.
"Ally, you disappeared for a whole year and you didn't even call us! I'm gonna kill you!" Piper screamed as well and we all hugged.
"I'm so sorry! I love you two so much, I never want to be away from you again!" We kept hugging for a seconds and then pulled apart.
"And what's for us? Not even a hug?" Jared complained. I laughed and ran to him for a hug, making us fall in the couch.
"I missed you so much!" I told him as we stood up.
"I missed you, Allybaby." I laughed again at hearing that ridiculous name he always used to call me and then I walked to Dallas to hug him.
"Dallas, I missed you so much too. And your advices." Dallas seemed like a really chilled guy to everyone but he was actually so worried all the time about everything. He was like the 'dad' of the group.
It was good. He always took care of the guys.
"Hey, Alls. I missed you too." He was like the big brother I never had. I pulled apart of the hug and look at everyone, clapping my hands.
"God, this year is gonna be amazing."
"Year?" Dez asked. I turned around and saw Dez walking up at me, Ethan was behind Dez and sat in one of the couches.
"Yes, I'm gonna stay here during a year." I smiled and everyone looked at me with a no expression at all. "Only if you want me to, of course."
"Ally, of course we want you to stay here, girl." Trish spoke breaking the silence.
"Woho! A whole year with you is gonna be great!" Dez screamed as he hugged me. Ethan was just looking at me, without any expression on his face and without saying any word.
Was he happy or annoyed because I was staying in his house?
I honestly didn't care. I was with Austin and my other friends and we were going to have a lot of fun together.
"Do you know where Austin is?" I asked sitting between Trish and Cassidy on the couch.
"He went out with.." Jared stopped talking before looking at me and slightly frowning. "Wait, Ally, didn't he tell you about a new girlfriend or something?" I looked at him back for a seconds confused.
I felt a small pain my chest.
I knew I wasn't jelous.
Well, maybe I was.
But it was because Austin was my best friend and it hurted to know that he didn't tell me about a new girlfriend. He told about two or three girls he was hanging out with, but not about a girlfriend.
I shook my head and looked down.
"Don't worry, Ally. Sure he's going to tell you. It's been just a few hours since you arrived." Cassidy placed a hand in my shoulder.
"But since when Austin is with her?" I asked, looking at Jared again.
"Why? Are you jealous? Do you love Austin? Do you want to kiss him? Yes, you do." I hear Dez singing behind me. I rolled my eyes and laughed.
Why was Dez saying things like that all time?
"Dez, get out of the house." Trish looked behind me and punched Dez in the arm, making him fall to the floor.
Oh god, I missed Trish being like that with Dez.
"Just a week or so." Jared told me and everything inside me relaxed. A few days before coming here I hadn't spoken to Austin so I wasn't going to get mad.
"Oh well, I haven't spoke to him that much.. so who's the future heartbroken girl?" We all laughed and then Cassidy spoke.
"Don't you think it'd be better if he tells you about it?" I thought about it for a seconds and nodded.
"Yeah, you're right. It's just, I need to know." The sadness, jealousy and anger disappeared being replaced with curiosity for knowing who was Austin's gilfriend and happiness for realizing I had my best friends in front of me.
"Alright guys, are ready to have fun? We have a party tonight!" We all looked at each other frowning and then I stood up.
"What are you talking about?" He wrapped an arm around my waist and smiled, pulling me closer to him.
"It's your welcome party. Or you thought I wasn't going to celebrate because you're here?" He kissed my cheek and this time I smiled.
"A party! Great, I'm in!" Suddenly Dez screamead and stood up from the floor.
"What time and where?" Dallas asked as Cassidy sat on his lap. They were so cute.
I remember when I first met Dallas, he had a crush on me and he was so funny trying to make himself notice. But I never saw him in a different way so nothing happened. He started dating Cassidy last year and they were happy together.
"The place is gonna be a surprise, at eight o'clock I want you all ready, okay?"
"Oh, it won't be a problem. We can go shopping in the afternoon and then come here to get ready." I said looking at Austin and smiled again.
"Shopping!" Cassidy squealed and stood up next to Austin and me. "Piper and Trish never wanted to go with me because they were so busy." She ran up to me and hugged me, pulling me apart of Austin. "I love you, I love you, I love you." I giggled and hugged her back.
"Cass you already buyed everything." Trish said, rolling her eyes.
"Okay, so.. let's go girls, I need a new shirt and maybe a new pair of shoes." Dez sat beside Trish and put his arm behind her neck, pulling her close to him but she immediately pulled Dez away.
"Oh no, you're not going." Trish looked at him disgusted and Dez shrugged.
"There's gonna be karaoke so warm up your voices, especially you, baby." Austin pointed at him with a malicious smile.
"I didn't know you sing." Jared said.
"Nobody knew." Cassidy looked at me frowning as she pulled away from the hug.
"I don't." I lied. I sang everyday of my life and according to Austin, I did it really well but I never liked to expose myself in front of too many people.
"Stop lying, your voice is great. And this night, everyone is gonna know about it. Alright, now, you guys." Austin pointed at Dez, Dallas, Jared and Ethan. "Come with me, I need your help for some things. And you girls." He pointed at us. "Don't burn up the house."
"Austin, do you wanna go shopping with me?" Dez stood up and walked toward Austin, putting an arm behind his neck just like he did with Trish but Austin didn't pull him away.
"No, buddy." Austin shook his head and patted Dez's head with his hand.
"Since when Austin the is responsible one?" Jace asked as he sat next to Piper. They also were cute. They had a chill relationship and a funny history. Austin started dating Piper when he arrived at California two years ago and then broke up with her but they stayed as friends then Jared started dating Piper and that's how Austin met the drummer of his band.
"He isn't." Dallas slightly frowned as he rested his chin in Cassidy's shoulder.
"He wants to impress Ally." I heard his voice and then I remembered that Ethan was sitting there all the time.
"Shut up." Austin rolled his eyes and pulled away from Dez and with that, he and his four friends got out of the house.
Cassidy, Piper and Trish looked at each other and ran up to me, holding me by the arms, they sat me down on the couch.
"Are you going to kill me? God, I'm scared." I joked. The three girls laughed and Piper and Trish stood up in front of me with their arms crossed over their chests as Cassidy sat down next to me.
"What the heck did you do to Ethan?" Trish asked and I started rambling.
I did nothing, right?
"Uh.. I.. I.. Nothing." I said honestly. And that was the truth.
"Come on, Ally, you did something do him. He can't stop looking at you." I bite my lip and slightly blushed, looking down at my hands. "Everyone, even Dez, noticed it."
"We barely talked and I did nothing to him. Well, maybe.." I sighed and looked up at them. "When I got out of my room Dez was running with some pants in his hands and I looked to the right there was Ethan.. with just a pair of boxers on, looking at me."
"What?!" The three of them screamed. They also knew how I felt for Ethan but they didn't that I was completely in love with him. They just thought I had a small crush for him. The only one who knew about it was Austin.
"Shh, stop screaming."
"But what he did?!" Cassidy ignore me and screamed again.
"Nothing, he whispered my name and then saw I was a bit uncomfortable so then he left to put another jeans on."
"And?!" Piper asked.
"He came back, looked at me an said 'You look.. older'." I said, trying to imitate him. Cassidy,Piper and Trish looked at each other and smiled. "And I said 'Thanks.. I guess' and he said 'I mean.. you look good' and then Dez came to end our awkward talk." Cassidy sat at my right and Trish kept his position in front of me. "Whatever you are thinking, forget it."
"Ally, he thinks you're attractive. That's good." Piper cheered me up.
"He never said that, he said I looked older."
And I'm pretty sure he didn't know what to say, because I don't even look older, I look like a 12 years old little girl.
"Oh, come on, are you stupid?" Trish said.
"Hey." I frowned.
"Look, there's only one way to know it." Trish said. "He looked at Ally and said she looked older, saw her reaction and then.. scratched his head?"
"I don't remember.. Were you watching us?" I asked annoyed.
"I knew it!" Cassidy screamed once again and stood up, pointing at me.
"What? Wait, I don't think the same things as you do so explain me."I said and Cassidy sighed.
"We've been watching the guys, and they always act the same way. We noticed that they do the same things in determined situations. For example, one day I wore a red lace underwear and surprised Dallas." I bit my lip and let out a laugh. "And we all know that my boyfriend is very polite and gentle, at least more then the other guys, but when he saw me he said 'Cass, why are wearing that?' scratching his head and looking at my body.
"And your point is..?"
"Ally, it happens to the five guys. When they see an attractive girl they start doing that or rubbing their arm." I looked at them slightly frowning as I smiled.
"Okay, or they are too basic or you are too smart."
"I think I'm gonna vote for the guys being too basic." Piper said.
"Now do you understand, Ally? Ethan thinks you are attractive." Piper insisted.
"Anyways, I don't care. Do you know the reason? It has a name."
"Chloe Edwards." Trish whispered and rolled her eyes. I think Trish hated her more than I did. Chloe was Ethan's girlfriend, and Trish, being FourSucker's manager, had to deal with her almost everyday.
"Exactly. So let's stop talking about Ethan, let's get our credits cards and let's go to the shopping center."
"Yes!" They all screamed. I missed hanging out with Cassidy, Trish and Piper.
It was great and we had a lot of fun. The four of us buyed a lot of clothes for the night.
"Best day of my life." Trish sighed, laying down on my bed. I looked over at my hand watch and noticed it was already 6:30.
"Alright, it's 6:30. Let's get started." I asked, sitting down on the bed, next to Trish.
Manicure, hair and clothes.
Cassidy put on a thight dress, a few centimetres over her kness. It was blue and made her look attractive and a lot taller. Trish wore a pretty extravagant dreess covered with sequins, it was color green and it also made her look beautiful. She had her style. And Piper wore something simpler and more natural, just like her. A simple yellow dress, a few centimetres over her kness as well. I wore a beautiful black dress I buyed that day and some high heels of the same color. Some makeup, lip gloss and we all we're done.
"Okay, perfect." I smiled as I looked at myself in the mirror, fixing my hair. "Let's go downstairs. The guys may be waiting for us."
We went downstairs, I was the last one and god, I wish I was blind.
"Girls, finally." Dallas said with a smile, making Ethan pull away from that thing with yellow hair that people called Chloe. He looked at me and his travelled down my body. I looked down at my feet and sighed.
"You look really beautiful." I heard a whisper in my ear, smiled and looked at Austin.
"Thank you. You look pretty handsome." He knew everything about me and Ethan so I guess he noticed how uncomfortable I was.
"We'll wait for you in the car." Austin said and grabbed my waist, pushing me to walk with him.
God, can I love him more?
We walked to the car and Austin put his arms away from me, making me feel slightly cold at the lose of him. He crossed his arms over his chest and raised an eyebrow.
"Are you okay?" I nodded and sighed.
"I'm gonna have to get used if I'm gonna live in the same house as him."
"Ally, it's been almost two years, how can't you get over Ethan?
"I thought I did, I swear." I said looking at him. "But I saw him and.. I realized that nothing changed. My feelings are still the same."
"Have you thought about.. I don't know. Think about someone else?" He stopped looking at my face and his eyes began to search some spot to place them until they ended on his hands.
"Uh, no.." I frowned, biting my lip.
"Oh, c'mon." He looked at him again and smiled again. "I don't know, maybe Dez?" I frowned even more and he chuckled.
"Dez? Are you kidding me?"
"I don't know, it was an example." He defended himself before I could insult him.
"Ethan is.. something I always dreamed about. But it's gonna stay like that, a dream."
"If it makes you feel better, between Chloe and you, I'd always pick you." I smiled halfhearted and walked closer to him, wrapping my arms around his waist.
"Thank you, Austin."
Suddenly my phone began to ring. I pulled away from Austin and took out my phone from my bag.
"I bet it's Jared about his jokes about me and you." Austin said, I looked up at him and then down my phone again, frowning.
"No, it's an unknown number."
"Ignore it, maybe it's some fan that got your number." I shook my head and sighed.
"It's a text." I opened it and read.
'And what about Austin? Never thought about him as more than a friend? It's just an example. Take care, honey. -X'.
Confused, I looked to my right and then at my left but in the whole street the only ones were Austin and I.
"What does it say?" I opened my mouth to answer him but immediately deleted the text.
"Nothing, it was my mom saying she changed her number."
I wasn't going to worry Austin. He was too paranoid. He could have say something like someone was spying us and were going to kill me. It was just some who liked to make jokes. But the fact that someone knew where we were and exactly what we were talking about scared me a bit. Maybe it was any of the guys with other number or the girls making me a joke.
There was nothing to worry about.
/ alright so hii, I'm new here in fanfiction and wanted to give it a try. I have a lot of ideas for this fanfic and I'm finally letting them out.
