Hi there! If you've read Austin & Ally: Fears and Fatalities, then you should know this is the sequel. There will be references to the old story. However, if you're a new reader, not to worry. You can still read this one. It will just make a little more sense if you read the first one. :)

Happy reading!

ALLY'S POV

"You all packed?" Trish asks me, not taking her eyes of my television screen.

"Yep," I reply enthusiastically. Trish, wearing her fun leopard pyjamas, was anxiously watching the end of Survivor. Yuck, I think to myself. I zip up my suitcase and sit on it, exhausted.

As the credits roll, she turns the television and sits up. "Can you believe you, me, Austin and Dez are all going on tour tomorrow?" she beams.

I grin this huge smile. "Nope! I can't. I'm so excited. I can't believe all that has happened this year. It's already September. Remember when it was February?"

"Yeah, and you and Austin weren't dating yet?" She winks at me.

I chuckle. "Yeah, and now we're really going on tour across North America."

She sighs and looks around the room. "See you in a couple months," she says to it dramatically. I laugh.

I'm going to miss my room. It's relatively spacious with a comfortable queen bed in the middle of the wall across from my door. Photos of the four of us plastered around my room and posters of my favourite artists – including Austin – in the free spaces. I had a soft carpet at the foot of my bed that I'd miss. I don't think I can bring it on the tour bus. I have stuffed animals aligned on a bookcase by my patio door. The room consisted of soft colours. Nothing bold like Trish's room which was literally animal print and vibrant colours everywhere.

There was also a special picture that was blown up to be twice the size of a regular poster framed above my head of me and Austin. He was kissing my cheek while I tried to pull away laughing. My dad caught the photo the day my mom got home from Africa. She's back there now, but it was a nice 2 weeks with her. She wasn't at all surprised about Austin and I. Actually, I hadn't wanted to tell my mom about us being an item immediately. But Austin wasn't having any of it. As soon as she walked in and we said hello, he stole a kiss and my dad took the picture. They probably planned the whole thing. I didn't really mind, though. I was so happy that day. It was only a couple days after we found out about the tour.

"What time did the boys want us to meet them tomorrow?" Trish asks.

I pull out my phone to check the text from Austin. Hey, Ally-gator. 6 am tomorrow, okayyy? it read.

I had responded with a simple okay with two x's. "6 am," I tell Trish.

She groans but says, "alright. Guess we better hit the hay."

I look at the clock and notice that it's 1:30 am. Trish already said goodbye to her parents and my dad offered to drive us to Austin's. I told him he didn't have to but he insisted. So Trish settles in on one side of the bed, me on the other and we quickly fall asleep.

AUSTIN'S POV

The crowd cheers endlessly as I walk out on stage. I light up like a Christmas tree, just beaming at my fans. I still can't believe how incredible they are. So supportive, so involved.

I walk up to the mic and yell, "hello, Miami!" The venue was huge and packed to the last square inch. The crowd erupts in even more applause. I position myself and look down at everyone.

Just then, I start to sing.

I'll be your entertainer
I'm putting on a show
I'm gonna levitate ya
Leave you wa-wa-wanting more
I see you fascinated
I've got you hypnotized

White gloves with your dream up

A fantasy before your eyesStep right up on the stage

Free yourself from the cage (from the cage)
Pick a card and guess it girl
Here's a lesson girl
It's just an illusion1, 2, 3, I disappear
Coming right back
So stay right here
Ain't no second guessing girl
I'm impressing girl
But I'm just an illusion

Oh, Uh, Listen
I ain't no fake Houdini
I put a spell on you
I'm something like a genie
Girl I make your wish come true

And now our time is running
With every grain of sand
So here's the grand finale
Watch me do my sleight of hand

Step right up on the stage
Free yourself from the cage (from the cage)
Pick a card and guess it girl
Here's a lesson girl
It's just an illusion1, 2, 3, I disappear
Coming right back
So stay right here (Oh, yeah)
Ain't no second guessing girl
I'm impressing girl
But I'm just an illusion

Somewhere in a dream
We'll meet again my baby
And I promise that I won't disappear
I'll be right here
And I won't be, won't be, won't be
Just an illusion
Yeah baby

Step right up on the stage
Free yourself from the cage (from the cage)
Pick a card and guess it girl
Here's a lesson girl
It's just an illusion1, 2, 3 I disappear
Comin' right back
So stay right here
Ain't no second guessing girl
I'm impressing girl
But I'm just an illusion

Step right up
On the stage
Free yourself from the cage (from the cage)
Pick a card and guess it girl
Here's a lesson girl
It's just an illusion1, 2, 3 I disappear
Comin' right back
So stay right here
Ain't no second guessing girl
I'm impressing girl
But I'm just an illusion.

I take a deep breath and just then I open my eyes to see the orange sun pouring itself in to my window, signalling the start of the rest of my life. If that dream was any indication of my life in a couple months, I will be more than happy to cramp up on a tour bus with my best friends so we can all enjoy the ride. Let's do this.
