From Tour To The Rest Of Our Lives

Chapter 2: State Championships & I Rehearse

Austin's POV

After the game before prom our team made it to the state championships with Hollywood, Florida's team the Sea Hawks. Right now since Ally's working & Dez is with Trish I'm out having lunch with the team. We are trying to figure out a game plan since I'm the captain of the team.

"So since Aust & Quince are our best shooters they should be placed over there," Porter said.

"I think that Zack should try to block Henry ( a sea hawk) since I heard he's the weakest and Zack is the strongest," I said.

30 Minutes Latter

Once we figured out the game plan I said goodbye to the team then went to the Sonic Boom to visit Ally. I saw her trying to pull a couple of little girls of the drum sets and Trish & Dez making out in the corner.

"Hey Alls, need any help?"

"Please. Trish & Dez have been making out for 10 minutes and my dad is out sick. Where were you?"

"I was at Melody Dinner with the team. Wyatt's girlfriend works there so we get discounts."

"Austy, Can you just watch the store for me for about an hour while I go take care of my dad?"

"No problem Baby, do you want to borrow my car?"

"Yes please."

"Don't forget we have a meeting tonight with Jimmy & Ronnie after the Championships in 3 hours. Your cheering tonight right?"

"Yeah. I'll be back as soon as I can. Are you sure you don't mind?"

"Hey what are boyfriends for? It's no problem Baby really."

"Okay. I'll be back soon."

I tossed her my car keys, gave her a quick hug and kiss as she mumbled an "I Love You" in my chest.

"I Love you too." I whispered in her ear.

She giggled and ran out of the store. I blew my whistle in Trish & Dez's ears and they broke apart embarrassed.

"Where's Ally?" Trish asked once she got her breath back.

"She ran home to take care of her dad before we leave for Hollywood."

"Ah Man, I wish I can cheer again."

"I told you your parents were going to ground you sooner or latter."

Dez got grounded from his cameras and being a cheerleader for changing his math graded from D's to B's.

"How come you haven't gotten grounded for school?"

"Well A one of the requirements from Jimmy about being on the basketball team is that it can't effect my music or school. B you have to have a curtain GPA to be on the team. And C I'm not going without pancakes again for a month. Ever again."

"Oh," said Trish & Dez.

I Hour Latter

Ally came back with her Manatee duffel bag and a black rose dress with a white jacket and white boots.

"Hey gorgeous. How's your dad feeling?"

"Better. Before I left I gave him his cold medicine and he went out like a light. How were things here?"

"Good."

"Hey we should probably get going I need to stop at my house and get my bag. Then it's an hour and a half drive there and 30 minutes to practice."

"Have fun," Dez said.

"Yeah. Go Mustangs!" Trish said.

"MANATEES!" We screamed at her.

"Whatever."

I rolled my eyes at her, grabbed Ally's hand, and left. When we made it to Mariano we changed into our uniforms and ran hand and hand on the bus. When we got on there the song Now or Never (1) was playing and I could her Porter & His girlfriend Gabbie, Zack & his girlfriend Janie, and Wyatt & his girlfriend Erika singing along to it. (Gabbie, Janie, & Erika are all cheerleaders) Ally & I started singing along to it too.

Repeat Chorus

Louis turned around to me and Ally after the song was over and said...

"How often do you guys watch the high school musical movies?"

"A lot. Ally loves them."

"Do you guys ever notice how much you have in common with Troy & Gabriela?"

"Oh Yeah," Ally said.

"Yeah," I said.

The rest of the ride was silent for us anyway. Ally & I shared my My-Tab and listened to music. Singing along to it quietly. I love these moments in our relationship were we can do stuff like this and push the rest of the world behind making it just me & her.

At The Game

Ally's POV

"Give me an M-A-N-T-E-E-S what that spell Manatees the team that will crush you and take defeat!" Me & Kimmy yelled.

There was about 5 minutes left in the game and it's tied 56-56. The sea-hawks captain Warren Justice got hit in the head by a ball that was thrown at the end of the gym and is out for the rest of the game. The rest of the sea-hawks are supper weak so weak that it makes Porter who is the weakest in our team look like superman. Austin, Zack, & Quincy could kill them in one step If they wanted to. Austin just called out time-out to have a final team meeting of the game.

"Okay guys final game plan. Quince you block Howie, Zack you block Kennedy, Porter you take Henry, Wyatt you take Eddie and Louis when I give you thumbs up you take the ball from Jay and pass it to me. I'll elbow out Frankie and make the shot. The rest of you guys block. Everyone got it?" Austin said.

"Got it," the team replied.

"On the count of three. Ready. 1...2...3...GO MANETEES!"

He winked at me and ran onto the court with his team to make the hopefully winning shot. His team did what Austin told them and when Louis passed Austin the ball the crowed roared 5...Austin dribbles, 4...Austin switches hands, 3...he raises his hand in the air, 2...he releases the ball, 1... ball goes through the net. Manatees win the state championships! Gabbie, Erika, Janie, & I ran over to our champions giving them hugs and kisses.

"Ally we did it!"

"I knew we could!"

He spun me around for a few seconds before putting me down. He cupped my face and kissed me while I ran my hands through his thick, sweaty, blond hair. We broke apart a few minutes latter.

"We should probably get going we have a dinner meeting with Jimmy & Ronnie at Illusion's as soon as we get back to Miami remember," I told him.

"Oh yeah."

We quickly got changed and ran on to the bus. I called Ronnie and told him to meet us at Illusion's in about an hour & forty five minutes while Austin did the same for Jimmy. After that Austin pulled up HSM 3: Senior Year on his My-Tab. I wrapped my arms around his waist and put my head on his chest while he put one his arms around my shoulder and took one of my hands in his. We stayed like this until we entered Miami. We had about 10 minutes to get to Illusion's so we through our duffel bags in the back seat and hurried to the restaurant to meet our bosses.

Next Day In The Practice Room

Ally's Pov

There is one thing I've always looked forward to at Marino High & that's Anti-Bulling Week. I wrote Austin a few songs to sing at the benefit concert tomorrow and I'm singing one two. Anti-Bulling Week only happens every other year. Austin's coming over right now to rehearse.

"Hey Babe."

"Hey you ready?"

"Yeah."

[Verse 1]

I found God
On the corner of First and Amistad
Where the west
Was all but won
All alone
Smoking his last cigarette
I said, "Where you been?"
He said, "Ask anything".

[Verse 2]

Where were you
When everything was falling apart?
All my days
Were spent by the telephone
That never rang
And all I needed was a call
That never came
To the corner of First and Amistad

[Chorus 1]

Lost and insecure
You found me, you found me
Lyin' on the floor
Surrounded, surrounded
Why'd you have to wait?
Where were you? Where were you?
Just a little late
You found me, you found me

[Verse 3]

In the end
Everyone ends up alone
Losing her
The only one who's ever known
Who I am
Who I'm not, who I wanna be
No way to know
How long she will be next to me

[Chorus 2]

Lost and insecure
You found me, you found me
Lyin' on the floor
Surrounded, surrounded
Why'd you have to wait?
Where were you? Where were you?
Just a little late
You found me, you found me

[Bridge]

Early morning
The city breaks
I've been callin'
For years and years and years and years
And you never left me no messages
Ya never send me no letters
You got some kinda nerve
Taking all I want

[Chorus 3 and outro]

Lost and insecure
You found me, you found me
Lyin' on the floor
Where were you? Where were you?
Lost and insecure
You found me, you found me
Lyin' on the floor
Surrounded, surrounded
Why'd you have to wait?
Where were you? Where were you?
Just a little late
You found me, you found me
Why'd you have to wait?
To find me, to find me (2)

After that we rehearsed his other song The Fighter (3) and my song Shine (4). I'm so excited for next week.
