Hey here's part two to my story, Ally's POV. Hopefully you don't find it annoying that I am rewriting the whole last chapter, I just thought it would give the story more depth. I don't own Austin and Ally and hope you like it! Please review! I want to here what you think! Plus shout out to Wonderstruck-ambition and EmeraldWolf7 for your support!–ng7
I am frantically doing my makeup. Austin will be here any second. Gah! I wish that time would just freeze so that I could take third shower and do my hair for the tenth time. You're being so dumb, he's such a guy, he won't care. But I care.
"Ding Dong!" So much for freezing time. I go into my room and grab my purse and quickly reapply the bright red lipstick. I can't help but bounce down the stairs. I have secretly liked Austin for quite awhile now so when he asked me out on Wednesday I couldn't help but flip. Trish and I spent 6 hours at the mall the other day just trying to find the perfect outfit. She bought a similar dress to mine and when I asked why she told me it was a secret. I just shrugged.
When I arrived downstairs, I saw my dad standing at the door. He better not be telling Austin off. A couple seconds later my dad reluctantly stood aside, revealing Austin. Oh my gosh he's is so… handsome. Austin was wearing a charcoal grey v-neck tee under a light gray sports jacket with his whistle necklace and some dark wash straight leg jeans. His hair was flopped just the right way, blonde and wavy slightly covering his gorgeous brown eyes. Classic Austin.
He held out his hand to help me down the step and politely asked if I was ready to go. Classic Austin. I took his hand and he helped me off the step. Once I was down, trying to be flirty, I held onto his hand. This is something Trish would have approved of. While we were at the mall she gave me a big long lecture on how to get a guy's attention. Rule One: Wear extra lipstick. Rule Two: Hold his hand. Rule Three: Giggle. A lot. They sounded pretty reasonable to me so I told her I would try. How did she know this stuff?
Austin and I walked hand in hand down to his car. Being the gentleman he is, he opens my door for me.
"So, where are we going?" I ask, feebly.
"It's a surprise." I smile.
"I am so excited! It's kinda strange to be going on a date ya know, because we've been friends so long." The words just seem to spill out. What are you thinking? GAH!
"Yeah," Why do I have to be so stupid?
"Yeah…" I reply awkwardly. You are so pathetic.
"Soooo…"
"Soooo…" Very inventive Ally.
"So how's Sonic Boom doing?" Don't screw it up…
"Oh my gosh it's been a mad house!" I say as we pull up to the surprise restaurant. Suzy's Soups, my favorite. He knows you.
"We're here. You can peek now." He's so funny.
"Yay! Soup! Maybe we could share one of those giant bread bowls." Do you think he would take that sarcastically?
"Totally!" He is just trying to be nice. He quickly jumps up and comes to my side of the car to open my door.
"What a gentleman." I am flattered once again by his chivalry. You don't deserve someone so kind.
"Yes ma'am." He starts laughing. His laugh is almost as beautiful as his singing, clear and high (for a guy I mean). I join in with my dorky little giggle. Seems so far I have followed all of Trish's rules. He takes my hand and leads me into the restaurant.
"Table for two please." I like how that sounds…
"Holy cow! Are you Austin Moon! Are you Austin Moon! I mean of course, a table for you and your date." I scowl at her. You better not put your filthy paws on Austin. She leads us to a relatively private table (hallelujah) and gives us our menus.
"So what do you want?" Austin asks me politely.
"I don't mind, what ever you want." I could go for potato leak soup though.
"You sure?" He is so nice.
"Positive." I answer.
"Okay. How about something creamy like potato leek soup in one of those big bread bowls you mentioned?" What the heck? How did he guess?
"Sounds perfect!" I say enthusiastically as our server arrives.
"So are you about ready to order." She said in an annoying southern drawl.
"Yes we would like the creamy potato leek soup in one of those big bread bowls and two Cokes." Coke! How did he get it again? I think he may be psychic.
"Okay…" she says scribbling down our orders. "Your food will be out shortly."
"Thank you." Austin calls as she moves onto the next table. "Sorry I forgot to ask what drink you wanted. Hope you like Coke."
"Cokes great, thanks." We then sit there awkwardly for a couple seconds. Trish's words are ringing in my head, "If you ever get really desperate, talk about something you have in common with him like your latest song idea or something." Desperate times call for desperate measures.
"So, Austin, hate to talk business on our date," Date, I like that, just try not to screw it up. "but I just wanted to tell you that I am working on lyrics to a new song." His face lit up.
"Really, what's it about?" he said excitedly.
"Love…" This should be interesting.
"Love?" He is going to hate me…
"Love." Why does he look so funny?
"Love…" he drifted off.
"Is there something wrong, because last time I tried to write a love song you totally hated it." In fact, he ran from the room with his ears covered.
"No, I think it is about time we wrote a love song." He approved. Thank heavens.
"Okay. I will have to tell you the lyrics later, I kinda forgot them. But it is a little slower than what we normally write if that is okay…" Actually, I remember them perfectly; I just didn't want to sing something so personal, especially if this date was a disaster.
"Perfect." he replies then I see the waitress coming with our food.
"Here's your food. Be careful it is hot. I also brought you too extra bowls and a ladle." She seems nice enough.
"Thank you." Austin says as a dismissal. And she leaves. We eat in silence. Ally, keep talking, this date has to be a success. It just has to. I clear my throat and ask:
"So, did you hear about Trish's new job?" Best that the subject isn't me.
"Yeah, I didn't even know there was such a thing as a sock store."
"Apparently there is." I joke.
"Yeah, so don't tell Trish or Dez this, but Dez told me that he was going to ask Trish out to the movies." That's, why she bought that dress…
"Really?" I gasp.
"Yeah, Dez like legit has a crush on Trish." Then we both start giggling like little girls. Laughing: check.
I try a few feeble attempts at conversation, "So how are you classes.", "Isn't this soup the bomb." and stuff like that.
Once Austin kindly paid our bill we went back to the car and I suddenly remembered…
"Crap! I just remembered I was supposed to pick Trish up an hour ago, oh she'll be having a complete conniption by now." Oh am I going to get it.
"No prob, we can pick her up right now." Oh Austin, you gotta love him.
"Oh, thank you Austin you're the best! Do you know where it is?"
"Yeah on the edge of the city, we can take the freeway there and be there in just less than an hour." Thank goodness, I suck at navigating.
"Oh Austin, you're the best." And I wrap my arms around his waist. He is so tall.
"Yeah I know." Austin teases as he plays with my hair. A couple times his finger tips brush my face. This sends tingles up my spine. I chuckle and shake my head at his joke.
"I will have to call Trish to tell her I am coming." This made him stop. No Austin, don't stop! I dial Trish and listen to the rings. "Well, she didn't answer. Maybe she still has her phone off for work." I suggest.
"Maybe." He mutters.
"I hope you don't mind if we still go, just to check on her." It gives me more time with Austin. This makes me wonder if the picking her up at work part was just part of her master plan to make this night a success.
"Yeah, no sweat."
"Okay then, we better get going."
"Okay." We then get into the car and leave.
Throughout the next half hour, I keep checking my phone for messages from Trish. Austin must be really annoyed with me. I have totally blown our first date. All of a sudden I hear a loud bang and smoke is obscuring our view.
"Oh my gosh! Your car is on fire!" I am truly panicking right now.
"Get out of the car and call a repair man!" Austin orders. We both jump out the car and then push it over to the side of the road. Unfortunately, I wasn't much help.
"Nice ending to our date." He needs sympathy. He obviously feels bad that the car broke down.
"Oh, it's not so bad." Then there was a clap of thunder and rain started drenching us. Of course.
"Figures." I complained. Austin then took of his humongous jacket and wrapped it around my fragile shoulders. The jacket smelled just like him. Butter pancakes drenched in syrup mixed with ginger snaps. It was so warm in there.
"At least we're together." I say. Its worth a try. I pucker my lips and close my eyes. You probably look like an idiot right now. I know he close to me now. I feel is warm breath hitting my cold cheeks. It made then sting. He was closer now. So close that I could feel the warmth of his skin almost touching mine…
"I am gonna make, make, make you do a double take!" I slowly unpucker my lips and lean back to answer Trish's call. When I answer it, I look at Austin. He looks kinda dumb with his eyes closed, still bent over with that weird expression on his face. I put the phone on speaker.
"Hello" I say lamely.
"Hey Ally! Guess who just went on a date with Dez?" WHAT? Oh, so that's why she got that dress.
"You did!"
"She did." added Dez in the background, his voice sounding smug. Austin and I looked at each other, bewildered.
"Wow!"
"Are you still with Austin?"
"Yeah." I grit my teeth.
"Oh, sorry. Didn't mean to interrupt your smooching." This makes my cheeks burn. We were going to, if only you hadn't be an idiot and called at exactly the wrong time.
"We weren't smooching!" I yelled.
"Yeah, right." that made me roll my eyes. "So, I just was calling to tell you that Dez picked me up three hours ago to take me to the new Zaliens. So I wanted to tell you that you didn't have to pick me up."
"You could have told me that earlier." Then I hung up, furious. I returned the phone to my purse and shrugged. Now, where were we. I started to lean in. He leaned in.
His lips were soft and warm. It was my first kiss. It gave me tingles. It gave me goose bumps. This is one for the book. I love you Austin Moon.
Okay so that is the end of Austin and Ally's half of the story, but what will happen when Dez decides to take Trish to a horror movie? Find out next with Trish. (Wow, I sound like a solicitor right now. :L) Thanks for reading! Please review!
