A/N: This is one of the shorter chapters but you WILL NOT be disappointed!
Chapter 7:
*Night of Talent Show*
Ally POV
"And now, please welcome to the stage Ally Dawson performing an original song accompanied by Austin Moon!" I heard the announcer say. I walked on stage. As soon as I saw the crowd I froze. My knees were shaking and my mouth was dry. But then I heard Austin start playing the guitar and all the butterflies flew away, my knees stopped shaking, and my mouth was no longer dry. (A/N: I WISH this happened to me! The first time I sang on stage when I had stage fright..still kinda do but not as bad..my mouth was completely dry and I had to sing the whole song with a completely bone dry mouth. THANK GOD it didn't affect my singing! But enough about me.) As soon as I stopped singing, everybody in the room gasped.
Skies are crying, I am watching
Catching teardrops in my hands
Austin POV
Ally is singing perfectly. It's hard to believe that she ever had stage fright. Now she's starting to sing the chorus.
[Chorus]
You can take everything I have
You can break everything I am
Like I'm ma Like I'm made of paper (Like a skyscraper) Like a skyscraper
Go on and try to tear me down
I will be rising from the ground
Like a skyscraper
Like a skyscraper[Verse 2:]
As the smoke clears, I awaken
And untangle you from me
Would it make you feel better
To watch me while I bleed?
All my windows still are broken
But I'm standing on my feet[Chorus:]
You can take everything I have
You can break everything I am
Like I'm made of glass
Like I'm made of paper
Go on and try to tear me down
I will be rising from the ground
Like a skyscraper
Like a skyscraper[Bridge:]
Go run, run, run
I'm gonna stay right here,
Watch you disappear
Yeah, oh
Go run, run, run
Yeah, it's a long way down
But I am closer to the clouds up here[Chorus:]
You can take everything I have
You can break everything I am
Like I'm made of glass
Like I'm made of paper
Oh Oh
Go on and try to tear me down
I will be rising from the ground
Like a skyscraper
Like a skyscraper
Like a skyscraper de of glass
*Backstage after Ally sings*
I run backstage and see Dallas sitting on the couch giving me the death stare. I hesitated before saying, "Umm…hi Dallas."
"Oh don't Hi Dallas me!" He exclaimed. "Listen, you can't have us both. You have to pick between those losers you've been hanging around and your real friends."
"Hmm, let me think about that. Go with the people I actually like that are true friends, or go with assholes like you. That's a hard one! I'd pick Ally over you guys any day." From the corner of my eye I saw Ally smile. When did she get here?
Ally POV
Suddenly the loudspeaker came on to announce the winners. By then, Dallas had already stormed out of the room. "Everyone did amazing today. I think we all saw true talent tonight. Sadly, there can only be one winner. And the winners are…*drumroll* Ally Dawson and Austin Moon! Congratulations! You have won $1000. Come down to the office at any time to claim your prize!" I jumped up about ten feet into the air and had a huge grin on my face. Then Austin ran up and hugged me tight while spinning me in the air. Then he put me down but his arms were still around me. Our eyes locked. What is he doing? Is he…LEANING IN?! Do I want to kiss him? YES! But I don't want to ruin our friendship. Our faces are 4 inches 3 inches 2 inches 1 inch apart. At the last second I did something I think I will regret for the rest of my life. I turned my head so that his lips touched my cheek. . .Do.
And BAM! I know you probably want to kill me now. I got you! I'm so evil. Don't worry…there are plenty more chapters to go! I still haven't written chapter 8 yet. That's next. The next chapter starts with it being 3 hours after the almost kiss. What do you think will happen? Give me ideas, too. 700+ words.
