(It's not like the song much but I hope you like it. I deleted my old one because I read RedRibbons101's fic, mine, and my fic was like it so here's my new one.)
Disclaimer: I don't own Austin & Ally, Taylor Swift's song, Mine or Subway as I mention it in the beginning.
You were in college working part time waitin' tables
Left a small town, never looked back
I was a flight risk with a fear of fallin'
Wondering why we bother with love if it never lasts
I walked into Subway with my friend Trish; we went to order our sandwiches. "Hi, can I help you?" The brown-haired employee asked Trish. "Yeah can I have a... Cheese six-inch on white bread with no sauce please?" She said pointing to the cheese. "Sure." He said as he cut the bread down and started to put on the cheese.
I heard two boys' voices in from the kitchen; I peeked in and saw two boys messing around. One of them had fiery ginger hair and blue eyes. He had crumbs of bread over his apron and he was using a pile of ham as a weapon against the other boy.
The other boy had light blonde hair and soft brown eyes, he also had bread crumbs on his apron and he was using a baguette as a weapon against the red-headed boy. "BOYS!" The manager walked into the kitchen and shouted loudly at them. "Sorry sir." The boy with red hair apologized as they walked out the kitchen.
"Miss? Excuse me? Miss?" An employee told me as I looked back at him. "Oh. Right, can I get a six-inch cheese and cucumber on white bread please?" The employee nodded and started putting the cheese on the white bread. By this time, Trish was waiting by the drink fridge for me to come and sit down with her. I picked up my finished sandwich and gave him the money and sat at a table with Trish.
"What the heck were you looking at earlier?" Trish asked as the two boys started wiping tables over with a wet cloth. "Those two boys were messing about in the kitchen." Trish looked over to them. "Ah... Ooh look they're coming over." She said looking at them. I looked at them and saw they were coming over to wipe over the table next to us, I looked back at Trish and took a sip of my cola.
They came and the ginger haired boy wiped the table over while the boy with blonde hair looked at me. He was about two meters away from us and it was kind of awkward to just look at each other. "Hey." I greeted, breaking the silence. He smiled a dazzling smile and replied, "Hey." The other boy looked up and introduced himself. "Hey, I'm Dez." Trish smiled at him. "I'm Trish."
Dez smiled and hit the other boy's arm with a cloth, "Ow!" He motioned him to introduce himself. "Oh, I'm Austin." He said smiling at us. "Ally. Nice to meet you guys." They nodded and threw the wet cloths behind the counter. "We're done so, you guys wanna go somewhere?" Dez asked us. "Yeah sure. Let's go." I answered as me and Trish stood up.
We left and walked around town for about ten minutes and then we went to the bowling alley.
I say "Can you believe it?"
As we're lying on the couch
The moment, I can see it.
Yes, yes, I can see it now
I knew I was a terrible bowler and Trish was an excellent one already, and when we got there I found out that Dez was a great bowler like Trish and Austin was an awful bowler like me. Me and Austin were both messing around and trying to get some points, but failed miserably. Trish and Dez were both quite competitive and in the end they tied.
We all exchanged numbers so we could meet up again and then me and Trish went back to our apartment, and they went to their apartment. We live about a two minute walk away from their building so we saw them every day after meeting them.
Two months later Dez and Trish started dating so me and Austin started hanging out alone together more, a month after that Austin and me started dating too. Everything was going great for us and life was fabulous. We had many photographed memories. One of our memories, my favourite memory was when we were on the beach and Austin put his arm around me for the very first time. I had no picture of it but it was always on my mind.
Do you remember, we were sitting there, by the water?
You put your arm around me for the first time
You made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter
You are the best thing that's ever been mine
A year later, Trish had moved into Dez's apartment and Austin moved out and was now living by himself. I was living in mine and Trish's old apartment. But yesterday Austin asked me to move in his apartment with him, I packed all my things and put my apartment on the market and moved in with him.
Flash forward and we're taking on the world together
And there's a drawer of my things at your place
You learn my secrets and you figure out why I'm guarded
You say we'll never make my parents' mistakes
After a week of living there, we both sat down on the sofa to watch TV together, he put his arm around me as I sunk my head into his shoulder. "Ally?" He said quietly. "Hm?" I smiled. "I love you." He whispered into my ear. Aw, he's so sweet. I smiled to myself. "I love you too, Austin." I wrapped my arm around his torso, hugging him.
"Can I ask you something?" He asked. I heard the serious tone in his voice; I sat up and looked at him. "Yeah, sure. What's wrong?" He stood up and walked over near the table as I followed, stood in front of him and took his hands. "Why are you, so guarded?"
Flashback -
"LET ME HAVE SOME SPACE!" My father yelled. "SPACE? SPACE! I LET YOU HAVE SO MUCH DAMN SPACE! YOU NEED TO COME HOME ONCE IN A WHILE TO LOOK AFTER YOUR DAUGHTER! YOU KNOW, THE ONE THAT YOU WANTED?" She screamed back. "SHE'S OUR DAUGHTER! THE SAME DAUGHTER THAT WATCHES US FIGHT ALL THE TIME!" He screeched.
End of Flashback -
But we got bills to pay
We got nothing figured out
When it was hard to take
Yes, yes, I thought about
A series of pictures of my parents screaming at the top of their lungs went through my mind. "Ally? Ally?" Austin said as he shook me lightly snapping me out of my thoughts. "Oh, um. I'm guarded because when I was younger and my parents were still together. They used to fight in front of me and I, got really scared that I would end up like them with my future boyfriend or husband. That's why I'm guarded, but then I met you."
Do you remember, we were sitting there, by the water?
You put your arm around me for the first time
You made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter
You are the best thing that's ever been mine
"You showed me that it doesn't have to be like that, it doesn't have to be all yelling and fighting. It can be nice and soft, it can be beautiful." He entwined his fingers with mine, and smiled the same smile that I first fell in love with.
Do you remember all the city lights on the water?
You saw me start to believe for the first time
You made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter
You are the best thing that's ever been mine
Oh, oh, oh
And I remember that fight
Two-thirty AM
Yes, everything was slipping right out of our hands
I ran out crying and you followed me out into the street
Three months later, me and Austin were in the kitchen, screaming at each other. Now we're just like my parents, the only difference is we haven't got any children yet so we were yelling at each other alone. "Sometimes I wish I never met you!" He shouted. I stood back and ran out the door and onto the street.
I had a blurry sight in front of me, tears were falling down my cheeks one by one. It was too good to be true, I knew it was going just too good.
Braced myself for the goodbye
'Cause that's all I've ever known
And you took me by surprise
You said, "I'll never leave you alone"
I felt a pair of arms wrap around my waist, it was Austin. I turned to face him and tried to run away again but he held my hand as I ran, pulling me over to him. "I'm so sorry, I didn't mean it. I swear. I love you. I love you so much, I'm so so sorry."
You said, "I remember how we felt sitting by the water
And every time I look at you, it's like the first time
I fell in love with a careless man's careful daughter
She is the best thing that's ever been mine"
"I remember how we felt on the beach when I put my arm around you for the first time. And every time I look at you it's like the first time I saw you. I fell in love with a careless man and woman's daughter. She is the best thing that's ever been mine." I looked down at my feet. "I'm in love with you Ally. I love you so much. Please."
I smiled softly, "I love you too." He smiled broadly and threw his arms around me into a hug. "I love you so much Austin." I whispered into his neck. "I love you too, more than you can imagine."
And then in unison we both said, "You are the best thing that's ever been mine."
You made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter
You are the best thing that's ever been mine
Do you believe it?
Going to make it now
I can see it
I can see it now...
Reviews please? Xxxxxxx
