AUSTIN'S POV

What…

Just…

Happened?

I…

Just kissed…

Ally…

WHAT?!

I mean, I can't say I regret it. That was amazing! And to think, I didn't think I liked her! I could've missed out! That would've sucked!

But…the thing is…

She just left.

Like that.

Left!

We kissed (and, again, amazing!) and we just looked at each other. I was about to do something (kiss her again, apologize, profess my love, I don't know) when she ran out of my arms and the room with it.

First I was like 'Duuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuude…I just kissed Ally!' then when I realized she wasn't there anymore and my arms got less tingly I was like "Wait! Ally's not here!'

OK, not very impressive and deep, I know, but in my defense, I just kissed Ally! That's awesome!

I should probably shut up about it, huh?

…

Nah!

But, I didn't want her to leave. I like her…

I think?

Could've changed…

To something bigger…

Great! Now Ally won't talk to me! It's been at least a day and she's avoiding me. Now, I know how lame that sounds. Not seeing a person (or girl, if you prefer) for a day. It shouldn't be that big of a deal. BUT IT IS! Ally and I are used to seeing each other every day, sometimes multiple times a day. THIS IS ALL UNCHARTED WATERS! And now I've gone 1 day, 3 hours, and 13 minutes without talking to her. Yes, I've been keeping count. I didn't start with keeping count but it happened. Probably because of my new found…feelings? I guess that's best way to put it. I don't know I feel about her anymore. I know I like her, that's a given, but…is it more? I wanna say it is but I don't want to lie to anyone (me, her, one of our friends, a random person, anyone). Ally likes honesty so I'm gonna be honest, then she'll like me. That's how it works, right?

OK, it was been a week since I've talked to Ally, (actually, it's been 1 week, 13 hours, and 23 minutes. Yep. Still keeping count) and I'm going INSANE! Dez and Trish both say I shouldn't. That we'll talk again, that things will go back to exactly what they were before, that Ally just needs time to process.

I find a few things wrong with those things

One, I don't want it to go back to exactly how it was before. I want to be more… I'll even settle for boyfriend.

Two, Ally doesn't take a week (and 13 hours and 25 minutes) to process things. I know this. Even big things, it takes her only a few days at the most. Then we fix things. I swear the way problems get fixed and arise; we could be in a TV series! {1}

Three, how do they know that we'll talk again? I probably just ruined it all! Yet, still don't regret the kiss. I regret not kissing her longer since we'll probably never see each other again. But not the kiss…

Anyway, I managed to write a song during this whole thing. Yay for exploitation! It's kinda sad but hopeful. Overall, it's about that she should give me a chance and wondering if we'll ever talk again…I guess… It goes like this…

I could be staring at somebody new
But stuck in my head is a picture of you
You were thunder, I was the rain
I wanna know if I see you again
I said I love you, you said goodbye
Everything changes in the blink of an eye
It's been a while, I still carry the flame
I wanna know when I see you again
See you again, see you again
Want you to know, what you mean to me
What will it take, take you to see?

I could put a little stardust in your eyes
Put a little sunshine in your life
Give me a little heart to feel the same
And I wanna know will I see you again
Will I see you again?

I've seen that before, cause you're not even there
I'm writing this song and you don't even care
Throw me a lifeline and open the door
And pick up my heart that you left on the floor
On the floor, on the floor
Want you to know, what you mean to me
What will it take, take you to see?

I could put a little stardust in your eyes
Put a little sunshine in your life
Give me a little heart to feel the same
And I wanna know if I'll see you again
Will I see you again?
A little bit stardust rushing by
And all the little things we leave behind
But even that in everything I do
Is a little bit of me, a little bit of you
When will I see you again?
When will I see you again?
When will I see you again?
When will I see you again?

I could put a little stardust in your eyes
Put a little sunshine in your life
Give me a little heart to feel the same
And I wanna know if I'll see you again
Will I see you again?

I could put a little stardust in your eyes
Put a little sunshine in your life
Give me a little heart to feel the same
And I wanna know if I'll see you again
Will I see you again?
A little bit stardust rushing by
And all the little things we leave behind
But even that in everything I do
Is a little bit of me, a little bit of you
When will I see you again?
When will I see you again?
When will I see you again?

I know parts might sound confusing so I'll explain it.

The part where it goes 'I could be staring at somebody new/But stuck in my head is a picture of you' kinda means that I could move on and go get another girl but I don't want another girl. I want Ally. And I'll always have her in my mind so it wouldn't work anyway. I'd practically be comparing them. That would be unfair to the girl and me.

'You were thunder, I was the rain' We're alike but different at the same time.

'I wanna know if I see you again' Are we still gonna talk and be friends? Well, I prefer a prefix to 'friends' but are we still gonna talk?

'I said I love you, you said goodbye' I kissed her (practically saying that I loved her) and she ran out of the room.

'Everything changes in the blink of an eye' Who knew that in the one second (OK, more like 5) everything would change so fast?

'It's been a while, I still carry the flame' Yeah, we haven't talked in a while but my flame (you know, like how they say in relationships? The flame's still burning?) for her is still going strong and I think it's a full on fire now.

'Want you to know, what you mean to me / What will it take, take you to see?' She means a lot to me and, obviously, I want her to know that. I want to know what it will take to make her believe me.

'I could put a little stardust in your eyes / Put a little sunshine in your life' OK, so, I was trying to be poetic. Basically, I could do SO much to make her happy and I could show her the wonder and the fun in things again if she'd just let me.

'Give me a little heart to feel the same' All she has to do to make me happy and see the magic is to let me love her. That's all I ask.

'I've seen that before, cause you're not even there' I know that I want her and what I want to do for her because she's not here. That sounds pretty confusing but it kinda makes sense. I mean, if I was with her, in the same room, I'd probably be too focused and intoxicated with her that I wouldn't be able to think straight. But, here, not with her, I don't have to worry about missing any of what she says or any of her in general, I find myself daydreaming about her. And some of her and me. In those, people would probably call me stupid for thinking like that about my friend who's not even talking to me right now, but I intend to make them a reality. Defiantly making them a reality…

'I'm writing this song and you don't even care' OK, so it's not so much that 'she doesn't care' per say as she doesn't know. I honestly don't know if she'll ever know. If it will get her to feel the same way, though, I'll scream it for the world to hear.

'Throw me a lifeline and open the door' I'm so lost right now. I don't even know why! Probably because I'm lost without her. Woah that came out cheesy. And all she needs to do to tell me is just to come over, open my front door, and find me. It shouldn't be that hard, I'm just sitting on my bed right now. You know what? I should stop trying to be poetic.

'And pick up my heart that you left on the floor' OK, it's not literal or that she broke it. It's not, it's just yearning. So very much… She just hasn't accepted it yet. I've given her my heart (completely and happily) she just…hasn't taken it.

'A little bit stardust rushing by / And all the little things we leave behind' As time goes on, a lot of stuff get left behind. And sometimes they're good things. I don't want to pass this up.

'But even that in everything I do / Is a little bit of me, a little bit of you' It's funny, I'm not even with her, but I already am doing things for both of us. It's like she's a part of me...or something...

I know, it's confusing and kinda poetic but…I just want my girl back. Given she's not 'my girl' yet, but she will be…very soon… As soon as she talks to me again I'm making her mine. I would say 'even if it's the last thing I do' but I want to enjoy it. I mean, I FINALLY get her to be my girlfriend and I die? I don't think so!

But what should I do? I mean, I really like her (still not lying to anyone. I'm about 99% sure but I can't be 100% until I see her again) and everything and I reaaalllly want to be with her but how do I convince her to want to be with me? I don't even know! I could try flirting but I've already done the ultimate one, which is kissing her, on the lips, so there's not much after that. I could try to do stuff to impress her but if she won't even be in the same room as me or in a 30 foot radius, how am I gonna do that? I could track her down and just tell her how I feel about her but she won't be near me! But, wait, I could try the one thing that we have always connected on…Music… It's like our thing (it is, you dummy! That's why you met and how this whole thing got started)! That's it! I'll go all Doppler on her! I'll go over to her house at night (that way I know where she'll be and she can't just leave her house in the middle of the night), hop in her window, sing her my song, and tell her what I'm 99.9999999999999999999999999999999999999999% sure I'm feeling (there's just that 1. 1111111111111111111111111111111111111111% that I just really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really like her). Let's just hope my Doppler doesn't turn into a Dahmer. {2}

This is it.

It's 10:42 PM and I'm standing outside of Ally's house. Her room is on the second floor so I'm trying to figure out how to get from her backyard, to her window ledge. Despite popular belief, there is no tree branch under the girl's window for the boy to climb. In fact, I have to practically go around to the front, and climb up that tree. I go all ninja and a little parkour and eventually get level with her window. I step unto the railing and the thing with Ally's window is that it's body sized. Thank goodness Ally doesn't jump out of it! Oh man…I don't even want to think about that. Then why am I still talking about it? {3} You know what, I'm just gonna shut up. ANYWAY, I grab the bottom of her window and push it up, opening it. I duck inside and my feet hit the floor that's a foot or so underneath me.

There she is… All cuddled up in bed, just sleeping soundly is my precious Ally. She's curled up with the covers over her head. It's a wonder she can still breathe. She's breathing, right? Yeah, OK, she's breathing.

Suddenly a scene from one of mine and Ally's favorite movies pops into my head. Hey, if I'm already trying to woo her, I might as well go all in in impressing her.

I sit on the edge of the corner of her bed with one of my legs folded in front on me, "Ally?" I changed the name to fit it better.

I reposition like the character does. I lean forward putting an arm on both sides of her so I guess I'm over her but so I don't fall on top of her and my legs are now kneeling on the corner. "One girl is worth more than 20 boys," I quote.

She mumbles something in her sleep and I just smile at her. She's so cute!

I readjust my legs, switching from one knee to the other, to get more comfortable, like the character did. Though, I think he was also trying to hide his pleasure from what the girl said. Well, I'm sorta doing the same thing, she just didn't say anything. "I live with boys—the Lost Boys. They were well named," another quote.

And, as if she was listening and following along, Ally jerks awake, throwing the blankets off her and me with them, off her bed and onto the bedroom floor.

I quickly stand-up and lean against the bedpost as my hand grabs the top of it, and try to act cool. Not like that I just fell flat on my face.

"Austin?!" Ally shrieks.

"He-e-e-eyyy…" I refrain from adding 'beautiful' at the end even though it's so true.

"Austin…" she growls. That's not good. "What are you doing here" she bites out through slightly gritted teeth.

"I came to see you!" Well it's true…

"At," she looks over at her clock, "10:54 PM?"

"Yes?" I give off weakly. She just glares at me and I let me filter fall and not have my brain doing the talking, but my heart. "Yes," I say firmly, "I miss you!"

"You miss me?" she raises an eyebrow incredulously.

"Yes! I miss you, Ally! I haven't seen you in 1 week, 10 hours, and 53 minutes!"

"You've been keeping count?" she asks with the same attitude.

"Yes! That's how much I missed you! I've been keeping count of every agonizing minute that you're avoiding me!"

"Austin, I'm not trying t—"

"—I know you aren't, Ally," I gently and cautiously take a seat next to her on her bed, "You just need time to process everything. I get that. But…couldn't we still hang-out? I miss you!"

"I got that. And," she sighs, "I don't know. It makes it harder when yo—"

"—I know," I nod slowly, "It's about the kiss, isn't it?" I half want it to be about it and half not. I want it to be because then I know where she stands and that might mean she felt something in it. I don't want it to be because that means something else is wrong with me, that's turning her off, and I don't want to turn her off.

She nods slowly back. This whole time she hasn't given me any eye contact while that's all I'm giving her.

It's silent for a few minutes as I give her time to collect her thoughts and not bombard her with questions.

"Ally, before you say anything about it, I want to tell you what I thought. Maybe it'll help you decide."

I get up, walk over to her guitar, pick it up and walk back over to her. I stand in front her and start playing the song, pouring my heart out to her.

I could put a little stardust in your eyes
Put a little sunshine in your life
Give me a little heart to feel the same
And I wanna know will I see you again
Will I see you again?

I could put a little stardust in your eyes
Put a little sunshine in your life
Give me a little heart to feel the same
And I wanna know if I'll see you again
Will I see you again?
A little bit stardust rushing by
And all the little things we leave behind
But even that in everything I do
Is a little bit of me, a little bit of you
When will I see you again?
When will I see you again?
When will I see you again?
When will I see you again?

I could put a little stardust in your eyes
Put a little sunshine in your life
Give me a little heart to feel the same
And I wanna know if I'll see you again
Will I see you again?

She just sits there shocked for a moment before telling me, "That was beautiful. Who's it by?" as I sit back down on the bed next to her.

"Austin Moon," I look her straight in the eyes and I can see she's shocked. I would be too if you wrote me a song. Actually, no, I take that back, I wouldn't be as shocked since she write songs all the time and most of them are for me. Though, I'd be a little more if it was a love song.

"Ally…" I whisper and take her hands, "You need to know something…"

"What?" she asks innocently, not even noticing I'm holding her hands. How can she not? I can barely stand it.

"Well…How did you feel about the kiss?"

"T-T-The k-k-kiss?" She's nervous. She only stutters when she's nervous…Or when she likes a guy! Hey! Wait…It's probably the first one. Dang it!

"Yeah…The kiss," Wow, even the thought of it makes me feel good.

"Uh…" her voice trembles. Oh…I don't want to make her uncomfortable…But I need to know.

"Yeah, and I promise to answer too," I pause, "Please Ally…" I whisper desperately and pleadingly.

She takes a deep, shaky breath in, and then looks up at me, finally making eye contact. I almost forgot to breathe. "Honestly?"

"Honestly…" I manage.

She gulps, pauses, then finally talks, "Well, I was shocked that you kissed me…"

Why did that hurt a bit? I get what she's saying (Heck, I was shocked too!) but for some reason that hurt a little… "OK…" I nod.

"And…surprised?" she says hopefully.

"Oh…" Is that all? All that it was to her? Oh…

"So…What was it to you?" she asks me, a little timid yet slightly perky.

Well, here go my juts… "Magical."

She's taken back, "W-What?"

"It was amazing, Ally. It felt like a million Pop Rocks were shooting off in my mouth. It was… Indescribable, honestly. Even though I know I just described it. I loved it. And I reeeeaaaally want to do it again… But I can't…and I never will. Because you don't feel the same way about the kiss as I do…" I glance down, a little disappointed.

"…But what if I did?" I hear Ally carefully say and I look up at her, shocked and confused. I see her avoiding eye contact with me again and looking a bit sheepish.

"What? D-Do you?" I ask eagerly, "Or are you just playing with my heartstrings? Cause if you are, I'm telling you, Ally, it's not funny."

She shakes her head and I notice a hint of a smile on her face, "I'm not…" She looks over at me and at her next words, my heart starts beating so fast, it feels like it stopped, "And I do…"

My face splits and I'm trying to figure out if this is a dream or not. I can't believe this could actually happen! That Ally could actually like me! I have to be dreaming, reality doesn't love this much, but it is. This is real! And that makes it all the sweeter…

We're silent for a bit until I break it. "I wanna kiss you so bad right now," I start, not being able to pull myself away from her eyes, "But that might not be a good idea in our current backdrop.

"You mean my bedroom at night?"

"Yeah, I don't want anyone thinking anything bad, especially since I know we would never do anything close to that."

All Ally does is nod.

"But I can kiss you tomorrow, right? That is where we landed on this whole thing?"

She nods again, but this time shyer

I didn't even know my smile could get bigger, but it did. I just stare at her for a while, not believing that she's mine and I'm hers, when I remember something.

"Oh, and sorry for coming into your room. Even more so at night. I feel really bad about that," I laugh awkwardly. I really shouldn't be in here, I know that.

She shakes her head lightly, with eyes closed and a slight smile, "Don't worry…It's too late now…"

I nod, "Well, you should get back to sleep, my princess, you need your rest. I would say beauty sleep, but you can't get any more beautiful."

She blushes and pride and pleasure swells in my chest at just the sight of it.

I smile softly at her, "Goodnight, Ally-Cat," I bring her hand up to my mouth and kiss the top of it. I hang on to it a few moments longer, then reluctantly let go and head for the window.

I turn to look at her once more, and I can barely make out a "Goodnight" from her.

I smile at her, then hop out the window, going down, and then shuffling up. As I do that, I can faintly hear feet shuffling across the floor and the second I land on top of the roof, I can hear her say, "Austin?" I can practically see her head, poking out of the window, looking for any sign of me. Oh wait, she sounded worried. I better reassure her. I take out my cell phone and send her a text, one I know will explain it. What does it say, you ask?

Goodnight, my Wendy-bird

Things to Know:
{1} Hehehe...Breaking the forth wall...
{2} I got this from How I Met Your Mother. For explanation, I'll quote Ted, "All right. If both people are into each other, a big romantic gesture works. Like Lloyd Dobler holding up the boom box outside Dianne Court's window in Say Anything. But if one person isn't into the other, the same gesture comes off serial-killer crazy, or Dahmer." So...yeah...
{3} Sorry about that, people.

I do not own Austin & Ally, "Stardust", or Peter Pan.

Reviews:
-:- LoveShipper -:- (((CHAPTER 2))) Hahaha, thanks. I'm glad that you liked his original plan and that your cheered on Austin. :)8 (((CHAPTER 3))) Right? No one should be bullied. I find it pointless. There's this song by Aly & AJ called "Sticks and Stones" and I really like it. It's about bullying (or at least it sounds like it to me) and I find kinda inspirational. I guess... Plus, I really like the chorus and pre-chorus: "Why don't they understand / That we are all the same / And we all feel lost at times / Why don't they understand / That someone else's pain / Is not for gain / Sticks and stone won't break my soul / Get out of the way, I'm invincible / Throw them down, cause the one you hurt's not / (not around) / It's not your place / Honestly" I'm glad you like that side of him. I thought it was kinda sweet. :)8

-:- X . Ready . Or. Not . X -:- Thankyou! Wait, the song's message or what I wrote...? I don't know. Yeah, I feel ya about it. It just seems mean to me but, as I said in it, I've never been bullied so I can't say I know how they feel, cause I don't. I can guess and I've felt pretty bad at times (almost dying [multiple times] is kinda a damper) so I can comfort them and listen and give advice but I can't say that I know exactly what they're feeling. I don't lie. And, honestly, lying wouldn't help anyone in the situation. You loved it? Sweet! And it's you favorite song? Awesome! And, well, come on. Writing cheesy, sweet things are fun and people seem to love it with these two. I swear, the gobble it up! It's amazing! Woah, woah, woah, back up...I wrote that professionally? What? I did? I still feel like a huge amateur... I was hoping there weren't any errors, that would've been bad. And I love Mika songs. I got my cousin into it and Beanka Juarez to like him too! He's awesome! He was bullied as kid... OK, sorry, this jumps around a lot. It would've been better if I had put a space in between them but it's too late now! (Well, OK, I guess it isn't since I'm still in my Doc Manager and the heading at the top still says "Edit Document: TellTale Tunes by Austin & Ally: Mika Edition (Stardust) - 4,943 word(s)" and even If I wasn't, I could always fix it... Oh well! I probably won't!) P.S. Sorry your penname is written out like that, it wouldn't appear otherwise if I didn't.

JoeyJar99's Message:
So, first things first, what did you think? I hope you liked it. Feel free to leave a review to let me know. Even if you're a guest! You can still comment! Yay! Buuuuut, if you don't review, I'll still love you guys (well, in the none creepy way, to be clear...). I'm not forcing you. Or am I? No, I'm not. You can review if you want to... You can leave your friends behind...Cause your friends don't review and if they don't review then they're no friends of mine. OK, just kidding, I'll still like them too. (But not as much...) No, I will. OK, wow, this message is weird. I have no clue what happened here. I mean, yeah, I'm a weird person but it usually doesn't show when I'm writing this. And, believe me, I'm not writing all this to make you laugh or to try to be funny, it just came out this way. OK, wow, I should stop talking soon, huh? Man, why am I like this? STAR testing? Maybe... English, Math, and History are my worst subjects (Ironic with English, right?) and I've been doing them for the past 3 days. But I'm not, like, wiped out...or anything... Maybe because I was just watching Mr. Young with one of my sisters and that show is crazy (or "cray cray" if you prefer Mable's [from Gravity Falls] term). Yeeaahh...Maybe... I don't know. I'm just gonna rap this up but first I wanted to say that parts of the end and the movie I was talking about was Peter Pan (the 2003 one with Jeremy Sumpter, just so you know and don't get it confused with the 1953). That's what was with the window, and the quoting, and the "Wendy-bird" thing. Also, in the movie, in the scene I was doing it with, Peter does get flung off the bed and then stand up, putting his hand on the bed post, I copied that part too (Copied, people, copied. Do not own!) OK, and, again, for the record, I did not act like this (Well...I guess write) on purpose or to amuse you, it came out that way. Sorry about that...

Later. Over-and-Out. Live long and prosper.
