The New Guy Part 2
It's been two ours since my break and Austin is all Ally could think about. "Dad! I'm taking my second break! I'll be upstairs in the practice room if you need me!" Ally yelled to her dad who was somewhere in the downstairs storage room.
"Ok sweetie!" Lester, her dad, yelled back.
When she had told Trish about Austin earlier, she had felt the same butterflies she felt just moments before. Of course Trish, being Trish, squealed after every sentence picturing their wedding as Ally spoke. She went upstairs and grabbed her songbook from her purse and continued on her song 'Double Take' she'd been working on for two weeks. "Ok, let's see if this gets my mind off Austin." she said to herself. About fifteen minutes later she finished the last of her song. It was a slow song and it went with her vocals beautifully. Then all of a sudden she heard clapping.
"Hey, that's a good song, but you need to speed it up." Austin said, startling Ally.
"Austin! What are you doing here!?" Ally shrieked. What if he heard what she said a few minutes ago.
"I told you I'd be seeing you later. I'm a man of my word." he replied. He sat down next to Ally and his arm brushed against her. She felt those darn butterflies flutter around in her stomach. Austin started singing her song but with a faster beat to it.
"Hey, I like that!" she looked at his warm, brown eyes and felt fuzzy inside. "Wow..." she said, amazed, when he was finished. "You're a really great singer."
He looked at her. "Yeah. I wanna be a singer really bad. But ya see, I can't write songs. So, my dream isn't happening for a while." He shrugged. Ally looked down. She felt bad for him. He was a singer who can't write songs and loved the stage while she was a songwriter who had stage fright. Wait...
"I have an idea!" She yelled a little too loudly.
Austin laughed. "What?"
"We can be partners! I can write you the songs and you can sing them!"
"Why don't you sing you're own songs? You're a great singer too."
She blushed. 'Why does he make me do that so much?' she thought. "Well I have stage fright."
"Oh. Well that sucks cause I'm definitely a fan." He paused as she blushed YET again. "But... I would love to be partners with you!" He exclaimed, child-like. She giggled.
"Partners it is." They shook hands.
