I'm back everyone! I have just written my ten pre-written chapters and now I'm ready to start this story! From the plot I bet you could tell it's based off of Hannah Montana a little bit. I was going through HM fanfics one day and this story popped into my head. Now I won't hold you back any longer…
Disclaimer: I don't own Austin and Ally… I'm saying that once.
"So Austin," The radio DJ, Street Cred, said to Austin. "What's it like when you write a song?" Right now Austin is doing a huge radio interview for FM118. Street Cred is the DJ interviewing him. Street Cred, what a cheesy name but whatever. It's not like I chose it. Anyways, he's here to also show our new song called Care to Rock (1). I have to say it's pretty good! Trish, Dez and I are waiting outside the studio watching the live interview go on.
"Like I've said before I don't write my songs. My partner Ally Dawson does." Austin answered the question. He then looked at me through the window that separates the waiting room to the studio and winked at me. I smiled at this and Trish elbowed me playfully. I looked over at her to see her smirking and wiggling her eyebrows at me and I just rolled my eyes. Austin's always giving me flirty gestures. I don't mind though because I do like him. Trish says she's certain that he likes me too but I don't want to jump to conclusions.
"Do you write your songs with Ally?" Street Cred asked getting interested.
"Sometimes. But she writes most of it. You know the lyrics, music. Basically I just sit there." Trish, Dez and I laughed at this and I could hear Street Cred laughing too.
"Well Ally seems like a great girl! Describe her a little." Street Cred said.
"She has brown curly hair and brown eyes. She's one of the prettiest girls I know." I swear I was blushing at this.
"Pretty huh? Why don't we bring her in here?" Street Cred exclaimed looking at me. You might be thinking Why not Trish? Don't people think Trish is you? Well, everyone that listened to Miami Mac thinks that. This is a completely different radio station. It's broadcasting to most of the southeast!
When Street Cred looked at me I was a little nervous but okay with it. I have to be honest. I'm trying to get over my stage fright. I'm slowly getting there but I hadn't gotten far. So far I can perform in front of Austin and my parents because I trust them with a good opinion. I've been trying to get to perform in front of Trish and Dez but haven't gotten the chance. Maybe if I went into the studio I can show them I'm trying to get over my stage fright.
I was about to make my way to the door to go into the studio but I heard Austin say something. "Um, that wouldn't be a good idea. She doesn't really like to talk live or perform live." Austin said hesitantly. I felt Trish and Dez loosen their shoulders and sigh in relief. I looked at them in shock but luckily they didn't notice.
"Okay I understand." Street Cred said looking back at me. I smiled nervously at him and he put his attention back on Austin. "Now it's the time we've all been waiting for. Austin, let's hear your new single!" Street Cred exclaimed and he took out the disc that we had with the song. I made sure that it wasn't any of my songs just so we wouldn't go through what we went through last time. I mean, if it did happen again I would gladly go into the interview this time. But this was the others idea thinking I still had a bad case of stage fright.
A few moments later Care to Rock was blasting through the radio and the speakers in the studio. I saw Austin and Street Cred dancing in their seats. I turned around to see Trish and Dez dancing together. Now that was just weird. I would have joined them but I'm not going to embarrass myself here.
The song ended and we clapped for Austin. "That was incredible!" Street Cred happily said to Austin. "But sadly it's time for our show to end. Thanks again Austin for your awesome single. This was Street Cred at FM118 here in Orlando." with that the sign that said on air dimmed and the show was over.
"That song was amazing Ally good job once again!" Trish said hugging me.
"Too bad Street Cred didn't give you cred." Dez said bringing the mood down. I looked at him confused while Trish glared at him. "What? It's true! It's a good thing that Austin saved you from going onto the show. We don't want a repeat of that tragedy!"
I fake smiled trying to hide the hurt. "I know that would be terrible."
"Hey! Don't go saying things to hurt Ally!" Trish said standing in front of me. I smiled knowing she was defending me. "I mean yeah she can't go on stage but don't go saying things like this." I opened my mouth about to tell them about my plan to get rid of my stage fright when Austin walked out of the studio with Street Cred.
"Woo!" Austin exclaimed jumping out of the studio. Trish and Dez immediately went over to him with me lurking behind them. They hugged him and high fived him having their own little celebration. I noticed Street Cred making his way over to me.
"You know I really liked that song. It was awesome!" He said to me as we watched my friends celebrate without me.
"Thanks Street Cred." I say back.
"Street Cred is just my stage name. You can call me Vincent."
"Okay Vincent." I say testing out his actual name. It's much better than calling him Street Cred.
"With so much talent writing songs it's hard for me to believe you don't like performing live." he said looking at me.
"I know. To tell you the truth I've been trying to get over it. I even performed in front of Austin and my parents. I'm trying to build my way up in confidence. I was going to actually go into the studio-."
"-When Austin said you wouldn't like it." Vincent said finishing my sentence. I nodded my head happy he understood. "Look, Austin probably didn't realize that you were trying to overcome this."
"I know. I tried to tell him and my other friends but I can never get it out." I say thinking of a few of the times I attempted to tell them and perform for them.
"You shouldn't wait for an opportunity. Just tell them. I also bet that once you're confident enough you'll do great." He said and I smiled at his words. Just then Austin walked up to me and picked me up.
He started spinning me around and I was laughing at this. "Austin put me down!" I say while laughing. He finally puts me down and I hug him.
"Great show bud," Vincent says patting Austin's back. "I would love to have you on the show again."
"I would love to be here again." Austin replies and they shake hands like professionals. We then say goodbye to Vincent. Before we left though he gives me a look saying 'Be confident'. I knew he wanted me to tell them about my plan and I will.
We went into Dez's car. He's already been sixteen for a few months so he has his license. He's not the best driver but at least I manage to stay alive in the car rides with him. He drove off onto the highway for the long trip back to Miami. We were still talking about the radio interview and how well Austin did.
"The end of the interview was a close call though." Dez said while focusing on the road. "We could have had another Miami Mac incident."
"Yeah, thanks for covering for us Austin." Trish said putting her head on the back of his seat. "I'm not going to be Ally again! That was a disaster." Austin just nodded his head from the shot gun seat.
"You know, I'm starting to think about performing," I said to them remembering what Vincent told me. This caused Trish and Austin to look at me. "You know, in front of people."
There was a small silence before I heard Dez and Trish break out into laughter.
"Good one Ally!" Dez said laughing while still driving. I was a little shocked. Couldn't my friends be a little more supportive?
I guess Trish saw the look on my face because she stopped laughing. "Look Ally, it's not that we don't believe in you. We just know you can't do it." What?
"Yeah, your stage fright is really bad! Remember that time when Tilly made you perform and you couldn't?" Dez reminded me. Some friends. I saw Austin wanted to say something but Dez changed the subject of the conversation.
I looked out the window and thought. My friends weren't supportive. That's what I really wanted. Maybe they think I'll fail again. That's why I have stage fright after all. But then a thought dawned on me. What if I wasn't Ally? Maybe if I was someone else I wouldn't be afraid to fail. Technically the other me would fail. Now that's perfect! I smiled at myself thinking of this idea. For the rest of the car ride I zoned out my friends talking and thought of an alter ego idea. As I was thinking I realized I need to convince my parents to go along with this.
We finally reached Miami three hours later. Dez dropped me off at my house first. I said bye to my friends and walked into my house to see mom making dinner in the kitchen.
"Hey Ally, how was the radio interview?" She asked me as I walked into the kitchen.
"It was great!" I say thinking about my alter ego plan. "How long until dinner?"
"Oh just a few more minutes." My mom assures me checking the oven. "Today is chicken Parmesan."
"Okay." is all I say to her. I've decided to talk to my parents at dinner. That way we'll all be together. When the dinner was ready my mom called my dad down and we all sat at the dinner table. So far my dad was just talking about his day he just asked how mine was.
"It was good." I say ready to ask. "Um, mom? Dad?" they look up and pay attention to me. "I want to get over my stage fright."
My mom smiled at me and my dad just kept on staring. "Oh sweetie that's wonderful! But how are you going to do it?" My mom asks.
"Well, I feel that I've gotten to the point where I'm comfortable to perform in front of you guys and my friends. So I want to try performing in front of other people."
"Whoa whoa whoa," My dad say making me look at him. "Are you saying you want to try and make it in the music business as a singer?" I think a little but and realize that's exactly what I'm saying. I nod my was and dad shakes his. "Ally, you know that the chances of getting into the music business are bazillion to one." my dad reminds me.
"I know dad you've told me before." I reminded him. "But what if I actually do make it? We have to at least try."
"She's right Lester." My mom said to my dad. "I know that if she really wants to get over her stage fright she will overcome it. We just need to let her try."
"But the reason why you got stage fright was because you were afraid of failing." My dad reminded me. "What if you fail again?"
"That's the thing. I've decided I want to make an alter ego." I explain to them and my parents got confused. "You know, be somebody else on stage and be me off. That way if I fail it won't really be me failing."
My moms face brightened up and my dad just looked at me again. "That's a great idea!" my mom exclaims. "I can help you make this person and everything! It will be-"
"Hold on!" My dad says cutting off my mom. "I don't think this will be possible. You want to have a celebrity life while you have a normal one? I don't think it will work. What about school? What about Sonic Boom? What about your friends?"
"Dad, it's the summer. We have all summer to see if this will work. I will still work at Sonic Boom. Trust me I have it all planned out. Besides, my friends weren't so supportive of my idea to get over stage fright so they don't have to know about this." I explain and he doesn't look that convinced.
"Oh Lester just say yes!" my mom begs my dad. "We need to at least try."
My dad thought for a while leaving my mom and I to wonder what he was thinking. At one point he nodded his head and sighed. "I suppose we should try." he said and my mom and mom and I cheered. "But of it doesn't work out you will forget this whole alter ego thing!"
"Don't worry I'll try and I will forget it if it doesn't work!" I say happily getting out of my seat to hug my dad.
"Okay, tomorrow let's go shopping and build this new person! We will to buy a lot of things." My mom plans and my dad turns to her.
"Penny! Is that necessary?" My dad asks her. "That will be a lot of money!"
"We need to spend a lot of money for this to work." my mom says to him and he slumps in his seat.
"Fine."
I finished my dinner happily and got ready for the end of the day. I'm so excited for tomorrow! I'm so happy I convinced my parents to let me do this. I just need to make this work.
And there you have it! The start of my new story! I believe this story will be my biggest one yet. So you guys will have to stay with me!
