Austin is leaving his apartment to go to night club, he shuts the door. Wait. Is it someone talking on the phone with speaker mode. And this voice sounds familiar. He turns his head and sees a very interesting scene and hears a very interesting conversation. That girl he saw naked a few days ago (wow how ridiculous it sounds) Ally as he remembers, was sitting on her knees searching for something in her bag in front of 117 door. Her girly stuff like mascara, book, wipes and etc is spread on the floor. And here her phone with speaker mode. It seems like Austin doesn't hurry for night club. It's reasonable, this is getting interesting
*conversation Austin hears*
- ...you really need it, Ally - says voice from the phone
- Oh yeah, Trish. You perfectly know what I need (sarcastically) - Ally is still searching in her bag and doesn't notice Austin in hallway - Where the hell are my keys?! - she asks(shouts) nobody with irritation on her pretty face
- Ally? Are you here?
-Yeah, I just can't get in my apartment - the girl answers angrily
-Anyway, think about what I said. It is the best way to stress out
-I AM NOT STRESSED! - brunette screamed still not paying attention what is going on around her
-Yeah yeah - a girl in the phone doesn't seem convinced
- Fuck, Trish, can you just not be you for a sec. Because this is fucking annoying - Ally is mad
-You see? I'm afraid that you would sound more mean to me if you knew more swear words. You definitely need get drunk
- Fuck off - Ally answers exasperatedly - I. Will. Not. Drink.
- Oh, I know. This way is without alcohol. You just need to get laid.
- Fuck off, Trish. Again. - Ally becomes madder, tantrum is close
-Come on, Ally. When was the last time you banged?
These word makes Ally furious. she opens her mouth, but doesn't find any words to say
-...
- ...
- Oh my God, Trish! Thank you very mush! You are such a good friend! I really appreciate your advices! You know what, I better go right now to the closest night club and get so drunk that I can hook up with a random guy. Because yes I am so stressed! And it is not even periods or something! I just need alcohol and sex! And especially sex! And doesn't matter that there is the biggest shit in my life, I am stressed just because nobody fucks me! This is the only problem! - she was saying this with mad smile on her face like in hysterics
With the last sentence she stands up, takes her phone closer and says right in the screen:
"Cause it's all about sex" she pronounced loudly every word almost screaming "sex". Call ends. Ally turns her head and sees that blonde guy. Awkward. Again. She remembers him. It's Austin. The guy who cut her favorite dress. But she has no vigor to say anything. All she can do is to face palm. Austin is confused too though. Eye contact and awkward silence. Ally lowers her head in desperation. And then she hears how certain blonde burst out laughing. Not that reaction she expected. Again. She frowns at him:
- How long were you standing here? - she finally find a strength to speak
- Enough to get that you are feisty - he jokes, but he gets silence in respond. Pause
- I am not. I'm just...just - she answers tiredly. And she doesn't finish. Maybe because she doesn't know what was with her, what is she "just", maybe it was just hard to speak
- Stressed? - he guesses
Ally buries her face in her hands and slides down her back to the door. She is really tired, exasperated, stressed, whatever else.
Yes, she is stressed.
She is not in mood to talk.
Austin leaves. Wait. She thinks he leaves. Ally sees the blonde handing her bag with a soft smile on his face. Austin actually has seen a keys near a purse on the floor. He carefully has put all Ally's stuff in her bag. And now Ally stares at her cute neighbor. Is it just her or he is a nice guy? "It's her, she looked so horrible that even a guy who bursted out laughing at her before feels sorry" - Ally thinks. Anyway after a long eye contact she finally takes her bag and Austin also helps her to get up. Then he hands her the keys. Ally is surprised, she couldn't find them in her own bag. But she still keeps silence, only her face impressions say about her feels. Actually they both still keep silence. Ally takes the keys and Austin turns around and steps towards to his apartment. Ally does the same. Oh wait, she stops. "Thanks" Austin hears. He turns he head and sees her trying to give him a smile. That smile. She is not in mood to smile, but her smile is the most real and sincere thing he has ever seen. That makes him smile. And he keeps smiling too long. Really long. Ally even frowns at him. Seriously, it's weird when you see a person who is staring at you with a smile for like 3 minutes. "Okay" she thinks and turns around and moves to her door. Only now Austin realizes that he didn't answer her. And that he was staring at her like maniac. "Well done, Austin" he thinks sarcastically. Ally is behind 117 door now. And he is still in the hallway.
Then he remembers why exactly he left his apartment. But now he has a small doubts whether to go to the club or not.
