Running from Temples
Austin truly didn't understand it. How it happened, he knew. It was his fault partially; he did introduce her after all. But he never imagined it'd become like this.
It had become like an addiction to Ally, she just couldn't get enough. It had been fine at first but then it just grew larger and larger. Ally barely had enough time for Austin! She neglected to write his songs because she was too consumed with… it. His career suffered a bit too but for once, Austin didn't care that much. He cared more about getting Ally's attention back on him.
As he walked into Sonic Boom, he was instantly reminded that it was still his fault. He just wanted to be nice and show her new things. He held in his groan as Ally stood behind the counter, smiling at her phone. He watched as she tapped it, almost rhythmically.
"Hey Ally," Austin said, trying to look at what was on her screen. Ally looked up at him for a second before looking back at her phone.
"Hi Austin…" she said a few moments later, her fingers still sliding and tapping her phone and eyes glued to the screen. Austin sighed. She'd been like this all week. At least when Trish and Dez had been introduced to it (Austin shudders at the mere thought of the thing now), they hadn't gotten as bad as Ally.
"Hey Ally, I jumped off of the roof of Sonic Boom," Austin began, wanting to see if Ally caught anything he just said.
"That's great Austin," she murmured, eyes still transfixed on her screen. Austin took a deep breath before talking once more.
"Yeah and Dez broke my fall. He's in the hospital now but whatever."
"Really awesome," was all Ally said. Her voice dull and concentration still fixed on the cellular device. He needed to get Ally's attention away from her phone. She could spend her time in better ways like hanging out with Austin.
He honestly didn't understand how she could still be fascinated. That guy wasn't even that hot either. You could barely see his face and his wore a dirty white shirt. Didn't girls hate dirty clothes? And the guy had the ugliest brown boots too. He may have been an explorer but he seemed like a horrible one. Austin's frustration at the lack of attention caused him to grab her phone straight out of her hands.
"HEY!" the songwriter shouted at him. Austin held the phone up above his head, grateful for his height advantage. Ally made quick moments to get on the other side of the counter. Once she stood in front of Austin, she jumped up and tried to get her phone back. "Give it back Austin!"
"No Ally! This addiction needs to stop and now." He pressed the home button on Ally's iPhone and watched as Ally began to fume.
"Austin!" she yelled. Her tiny hands made another grab for her phone and she was almost successful. Instead, she had grabbed Austin's wrist with such force that she caused the phone to fly out of his hands and towards the entrance of Sonic Boom.
"Hey guys!" Dez said, walking into the music store, oblivious to the phone that had fallen on the floor. He took a step forward and caused even more damage to the iPhone.
"NO!" Ally screamed, rushing over to the floor and slowly picking up her iPhone. The screen was beyond cracked and it wouldn't turn back on. "My phone!" her voice cried out. Austin cautiously made his way towards the brown haired, brown eyed girl and gently placed a hand on her shoulder.
"Maybe it was for the best," he said softly. Ally stood and looked up into the eyes of her best friend's face.
"I was just about to beat the high score," she said. She pouted and Austin sighed, wrapping his arms around his partner.
"I know Ally. But it had to end sometime." The blond felt Ally nod her head as she wrapped her arms around his neck. Maybe she had gotten a bit too addicted to 'Temple Run'.
"Oh my gosh you guys!" Trish said excitedly as she rushed into the store, phone gripped tightly in her hand. "Have you guys tried 'DrawSomething' yet? It's so addicting!" the Latina announced with a smile. Ally rushed out of Austin's arms and towards the short girl, earning a groan from the boy. Here it goes again…
Oh gosh, I have no idea what this is. I had written this idea down back when everyone started getting addicted to Temple Run and I finally decided to write it! YAY!
Um, so this is the first of many unrelated one-shots. The title of this collection of one-shots is "Austin & Ally's Infinite Playlist". It's kind of a play on "Nick & Norah's Infinite Playlist" in a way but I felt like it fit them so well, especially because of their love in music. But basically, whenever I get inspiration, I'll write a one-shot and upload it to this. I have so many ideas floating around right now. Some of them are inspired by songs, some pop up when I'm talking to a person yet it has nothing to do with our conversation, and others just hit me. So I hope you enjoy!
You should review and let me know what you think! Critism is welcomed! :)
Until next time...
