Hey Guys! I wanted to tell ya'll that this story is highly based on a movie called "Just My Luck" and if you haven't watched it, that's okay. It's a really good movie so you should watch it some time,
DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN AUSTIN & ALLY!
"...be careful this morning people because it is raining cats and dogs this morning." Said the weather announcer.
Raining? I hope I'll be able to get to the studio on time. I know you guys probably already know who I am but please let me introduce myself. My name is Allyson Dawson, Ally for short. I am a world wide recording artist but I also do a bit of acting here and there.
My career took flight when I was born actually because my father was an actor and my mother was a singer. Now that the introductions are over, I have to hurry to get to work. I grab my coat and hurry out the door.
After I close the door to my condo, I remember that it is raining and I did not take an umbrella, "whatever, I'm taking a taxi anyway."
You might be wondering why i'm taking a taxi if i'm a recording artist. Well, the answer is pretty simple, I want to act and live as normal as possible. I don't want to flaunt my money in other people's faces, that'll be rude. I run down the stairs of my condo and greeted the door man.
"Good morning, Timmy" I said with a wave.
He turns toward me, "Good morning, Ms. Dawson, it's going to be hard to get a taxi in this kind of weather. No umbrella?"
I look up at the sky and test my luck, "Do you really think I need one?" I ask nervously
Suddenly the dark clouds started clearing up and it stopped raining, letting the sun shine through. I sigh and smile, what luck!
Timmy made a surprised face and smiled, "guess you don't" he said and opened a taxi door for me.
I smile at him and was about to get in when I saw something hanging from the bottom of my shoe. I reach down and pick it up.
"Wow, a 20 dollar bill!" I say happily. I get in the taxi and give my destination to Dave, the taxi driver, "66th street, Star Records, please"
"You know, I know" He replied
I get my phone out and dial my best friend's number.
"Hey, Trish?" I ask
"iHeartRadio, you're caller 7, can you name our mystery song?" Said a radio MC
"Oops, I did it again, sorry" I apologize
"That's right! You win!" he says but I already hung up, I dial Trish's number again and double check to make sure it is the right one this time.
"That's like 5 wins in a row now, the force is strong this morning" Dave says
I laugh and bring my phone to my ear, "Hey, Trish"
"Hey, Ally" She says
"I'm actually running a bit early so I'm going to make a stop at Starbucks, what do you want?" I ask
"um, I want a caramel macchiato and a chocolate covered donut, please" She says
"Ok, see you at the studio" I say and hang up
I sigh, today's gonna be a great day!
MEANWHILE
"Austin, how are we gonna get the Jimmy Star to sign us if nobody has ever heard us play?"
I glance at my best friend, "I don't know but a plan will come to me so just wait for it."
Wassup, the name's Austin Moon and I'm the lead vocalist and rhythm guitarist for my band, Bad Luck. The band is made up of 5 people including me.
Dez, he plays the keyboard and is also my best friend.
Elliot, he plays bass guitar.
Rocky, he plays lead guitar and is also my older brother.
And Dallas, he plays the drums.
Right now, we're on our way to the city park so we can busk a bit. Jimmy Star always walks by this park because star records is next to it. We've tried many times to get his attention but it something always goes wrong but we're hoping today is our lucky day.
"We've been waiting for a year, I doubt the plan is coming" Dallas says
I sigh, "guys, I know we're going to be big soon, I can feel it!" I say with my arms spread wide and my eyes closed. I accidentally slip on a news paper and fall backwards but thankfully, Rocky caught me.
"Thanks, bro" I say. Rocky helps me back on my feet when a taxi cab drives over a big pool puddle and splashes me with dirty road water.
"Woah, man, are you okay?" Elliot asks
I shiver, "Yeah, yeah, i'm fine. It's just bad luck" It's always bad luck, "Let's just hurry to the park before Jimmy gets there."
When we get there, we saw Jimmy getting out of his car, "Right on time, guys. Let's move" I say
BACK TO ALLY
Dave pulls up in front of Star Records and I exit the car, "Bye, Dave!" I say before shutting the door. I enter the building and make my way towards the elevator but unfortunately, it closed before I could enter.
I sigh then i heard a ding behind me. I smile when I see that the second elevator opened and it was empty. I get in and press the button for the 5th floor. As the door was about to close, I heard a voice,
"Hey, please hold the elevator."
I place my hand in between the door and it opens up again letting Noah Evans in. He smiles at me and I smile back. Noah is also a recording artist signed to Star records, we will be recording a song together today because he is featuring in my new album.
"Thank you, Ally" he says
"You're welcome, Noah" I say
"Oh, I've been wanting to ask you something" He says
"Hmm, what is it?"
"Would you like to go to dinner with me tonight?" he asks
I smile apologetically, "sorry but the masquarade party is tonight, maybe some other time"
"Promise?"
"Promise" I confirm
"So, are you ready to see what a great team we make?" he asks with a wink and I blush
"Yeah, can't wait" I say and the elevator opens. We make our way to the studio and we're greeted by Trish.
"Hey, Ally, Noah, are you guys ready to begin?" She says and we nod. If you don't know, Trish is not only my BFF but she's also my manager and a great one too.
"Yup, let's get started" I say
AUSTIN
"Mr. Star, Mr. Star!" I yell and ran towards him but was held back by security, "Wait! I rally have to talk to you! It's super important!" He just kept walking and enters the building. I don't think he heard me.
"I guess we missed him again..." Dez says
I sigh "we'll get him next time, guys"
"I hope so" says Elliot
"I hope so too, man, I hope so too" I say and look up at the star records billboard, "Let's just busk, boys"
I began playing my guitar then soon the boys followed.
I'm Yours (Jason Mraz)
Well, you done done me and you bet I felt it
I tried to be chill but you're so hot that I melted
I fell right through the cracks
Now I'm trying to get back
Before the cool dawn run out
I'll be giving it my bestest
And nothing's gonna stop me but divine intervention.
I reckon, it's again my turn
To win some or learn some.
But I won't hesitate
No more, no more.
It cannot wait,
I'm yours.
Well, open up your mind and see like me,
Open up your plans and damn you're free.
Look into your heart and you'll find love, love, love, love.
Listen to the music of the moment, people dance and sing, we're just one big family
And it's our God-forsaken right to be loved, loved, loved, loved, loved
So I won't hesitate
No more, no more.
It cannot wait,
I'm sure.
There's no need to complicate.
Our time is short.
This is our fate,
I'm yours.
Do you want to come on, scootch on over closer, dear
And I will nibble your ear
I've been spending way too long checking my tongue in the mirror
And bending over backwards just to try to see it clearer
But my breath fogged up the glass
And so I drew a new face and I laughed.
I guess what I'll be saying is there ain't no better reason
To rid yourself of vanities and just go with the seasons.
It's what we aim to do.
Our name is our virtue.
But I won't hesitate
No more, no more.
It cannot wait,
I'm yours.
Well, open up your mind and see like me,
Open up your plans and damn you're free.
Look into your heart and you'll find that the sky is yours.
So please don't, please don't, please don't...
There's no need to complicate.
'Cause our time is short.
This oh, this oh, this is our fate.
I'm yours.
When we finish, there are a bit of applause here and there, others are in too much of a hurry to listen. Even though the band has no recognition yet, I just have faith that we'll be able to go big. Don't ask me why because I don't why, just feel it.
I mean it's my dream.
