Ally's POV
I wake up and realize we're still on my private jet. I'm snuggled up to Dez as he has his arm around me. I start to stir and open my eyes to see our faces inches apart and his rejuvenated bright blue eyes. His hair is falling in his eyes, just like Austin's does. So without thinking I just brush his hair out of his face with my hand.
He smiles and sits up, still not moving his arm from around me. "Hey." He says in a husky sort of groan.
"Hi." I pause for a second,
"So uh, I think that we'll be landing soon. What should we do tonight?"
"We should get drunk with the Irishmen!" He says enthusiastically. I look at him like with a really look on my face.
"Dez, you've seen me drunk before..."
"I know and its been a while, but you're fun when you're drunk. You need to let loose and get your mind off of things. We don't have to go to a nightclub, why don't we just go to a pub instead?"
"Laid-back and low key maybe the paparazzi won't bother us while we're in Ireland?"
"I wouldn't count on it. Do you see how hot you look right now?" I blush.
"Should I change?"
"Your outfit? Definitely not."
"Well, so far I am liking what I'm seeing, but for the record I still like you dressed as your old self as well too."
The pilot comes over the intercom, " Miss Dawson and Mr. Wade we will be landing shortly. Please keep your seat-belts fastened until we have touched ground and have come to a complete halt and are at the gate. Thank you."
A few minutes later and we're descending as I look out the window. I'm stunned by the aesthetic beauty and greenery Ireland has to offer. It's so much more beautiful outside of the U.S. especially because there's less pollution. We're going to be landing at the Dublin Airport in a few minutes. Our descent is very smooth and Dez takes hold of my hand until we hit the runway and I squeeze his hand to thank him for attempting to calm my nerves. We're taxiing for a few minutes and the pilot tells us we're free to move about our cabin, so I go to the restroom and touch up my makeup before we have to get off the jet.
The doors open as does the staircase to the private jet and Dez and I walk down them and once we're down the stairs wait for our suitcases to be taken off the plane, grab them. Waiting for us at the airport is a black Lincoln Town Car with our very own personal driver. He takes all of our bags and we get in the car and head over to our hotel The Westin. After about a ten minute drive we pull up to the hotel and see a massive light tan stone building. We walk into the hotel and my breath is just taken away. The detail in the lobby alone is incredible. The bellboys take our luggage up to the room, while Dez and I go up to the front desk to check in to our separate, but his close to mine either adjacent to or directly across the hall. We take the elevator up to the fifth floor and go to our room 506 and room 507. I walk into my suite and through the doors there is the living room area, bathroom, bedroom, balcony, bathroom, but in the bedroom there's a spiral staircase that goes up to the next floor and it's a library filled with books! This makes me so unbelievably happy, I have to remember to thank Ronnie later for this. I walk up the spiral stairs and see two chairs, a loveseat and a desk. I grab my room key and go across the hall to Dez's hotel room. It's similar to mine in appearance on he has the basic suite without the split-level library like mine has. His room is just as nice as mine, the only thing that puts mine over the top is a library. How cool is that? Am I right?
"Hey, so what do you think of your room?" I ask him curious to see what he thinks.
"I really like it." He smiles back at me.
"Hey, come over to my room. I have yet to go out on the balcony, but my guess is the view is probably going to be awesome."
We walk across the hall to my split-level library suite, I use my key to open the door and we walk straight past my Queen Size bed towards the balcony which has a sliding glass door. I open the doors and we have a view of Trinity College which has beautiful stone architecture, also our driver told us that The Temple Bar is very close to the hotel as well.
"This is a pretty cool view Al. You have stone buildings and the mountains in Dublin right behind them." He puts his arm around me as we just stare at the beautiful view.
"Are you ready to start your tour now?"
"This is really happening. I'm going to start my own INTERNATIONAL TOUR!" I'm literally screeching in excitement.
"Yeah, speaking of." I interrupt him,
"I'll call Ronnie right now and find out if he's in Ireland or who is going to be in charge of running my shows smoothly." I pick up the phone to dial Ronnie, he said his associate Jordan is going to be my manager for the first six months abroad, to not worry because she knows what she's doing. He said that I should relax today and we'll get to work and rehearse tomorrow. He also mentioned that he wants me to meet my opening act down at the bar downstairs in a few hours and that Dez may accompany me if I wish him to do so. I tell Ronnie thank you and that I appreciate everything. I relay the information to Dez and he tells me to get ready.
"Should I change since I'm meeting whoever is going to be headlining my tour with me in a few hours?"
"No, you look perfect. Why don't you just relax in here for a bit while I start unpacking, and then I'll come get you when we have to go down to the bar?"
"Sounds good to me, I should probably do the same." He walks out of my room and across the hall to his. I decide to turn on my phone, take it out of airplane mode. I have multiple texts coming through. One from Trish asking me to tell her Dez and I arrived safely. I take a picture of my room and library part of the suite real quick with, "We just arrived and I'm going to start unpacking. Wish you were here. Love you! xoxo
I have a text from my dad, tell him that I've arrived safely and so far the paparazzi has left us alone. Who knows how long that is going to last though.
Austin...
I guess the saying, "You never know what you have until it's truly gone is true. Baby, I miss you so much already."
Ugh! Seriously I'm not in the fucking mood for this! I ignore his text and don't respond because the tears just start falling freely down my face.
I decide to grab my songbook and record my new song, Really Don't Care because I have the beat and tune in my head already and it'll just be easier this way when I go to rehearse it for my concerts throughout the tour.
I click the right side of my phone, the lock screen is Austin kissing me on the cheek. I should probably change that. I get to my home screen and it's a picture from when Austin bought me Princess Crystal Shoes and he's carrying me around the mall. I had Dez snap that picture. Ugh.
How the hell am I supposed to get over him with both my lock screen and home screen of the two of us in my background?
I open up Google and search heartbreak images and find a quote that I think will work for at least the home screen.
"Pain makes you stronger. Fear makes you braver. Heartbreak makes you wiser." A- ha! This one's perfect! I save the image and go into my gallery and set it as my home screen.
Okay, now I need to find a picture or quote for my lock-screen.
"Pour yourself a drink, put on some lipstick and pull yourself together." - Elizabeth Taylor and saved it as my lock screen.
Dez's POV
I walk back over to my room and start to unpack, take my phone out of airplane mode and I have multiple texts from Austin.
Are you guys there yet safely?
Please answer me. I'm already going crazy.
I just text Ally, but she's not responding to me.
I'm about to respond when my phone starts ringing, shocker.. I pick up on the first ring because I see it's Austin calling.
"Hey man. I was just about to text you back. Ally and I just got here, she's in her room unpacking right now."
"Well, I text-ed her and she hasn't responded back to me. I'm with Trish right now and she just responded to Trish."
"I don't know what to tell you Austin. I guess Ally's not ready to talk to you. She wrote a song while we were up in the air."
"About?"
"Honestly, I don't know. I haven't seen it yet, but when it's ready I'm sure she'll either show me or call Ronnie and tell him that she has a new song, and he can release it as her single."
"What are you guys doing tonight?"
"Well, we have to meet whoever is headlining Ally's tour and then I'm taking her out to Temple Bar."
"Do you have any idea who's headlining for her?"
"No, neither of us do. I should probably go check on her and see if she's ready soon though. I figured we'd take back a couple of shots before she has to meet with whoever it is."
"Oh, well that's fucking great." Whoa! Talk about someone having edge to his voice.
"Austin? Are you alright?" I ask my best friend genuinely concerned.
"No, I'm not fucking alright Dez my girl and best friend are across the world right now. She's upset with me and there's a very real possibility that I'm not going to get her back."
No fucking duh! I wonder why Austin!
"Austin, you did this to yourself. I've tried helping, but there's only so much I can do. You have to figure out the rest on your own."
"I miss her already, Dez. I even listened to Drive Myself Crazy."
"By N*Sync? Her favorite Boy Band?"
"Yes, Trish was playing Ally's cd and it was on."
" Wow you've got it bad. Where's Trish now?"
"Talking on the phone with Jace, but I know that she got a text from Ally because she was all smiley and giddy and walked out of Ally's bedroom. I left Ally's earlier, but I just ended up driving back here and Trish is still here. I just want to be near her stuff even if she's not here."
"I keep looking at pictures of us. I even took the one that she left here."
"Which one?" I'm actually curious to see which one he's referring to even though I have my own suspicions.
"Us performing You Can Come to Me. She left it here, so I took it home and I'm going to frame it. Trish also gave me Ally's most recent songbook."
"I see."
"Yeah, so I'm going to read it and figure out how the fuck I'm going to fix this fuck up. I love Ally, Dez. I really love her. She's my-" He trails off.
"Your what?"
"Forget it. I gotta go. Please take care of Ally for me."
"Sure thing."
I hang up with Austin, go across to Ally's room and knock on the door. She comes to the door and opens it, she's touched up her makeup. Her cheeks I've noticed look naturally rosy and she has a light pink lipstick on. She looks really really good.
"So, I just talked to Ronnie and said whoever we're meeting already knows what I look like because they've seen pictures of me."
"Okay."
"So, I guess that we'll just go down to the bar and whoever it is will approach me."
"Let me just take a picture of you on the balcony first. You look just incredible."
Ally has her hair in soft waves and pinned up and out of her face. I snap the picture on my cellphone and then she grabs her camera sets a timer and then pulls me into a picture with her. I stand straight and she's standing kind of in front of me, I lean down and whisper into her ear, "I really like your hair." I feel her shiver as I place my hand on top of her arm. As I feel myself start to harden just from our close proximity I decide to get myself out of a potentially questionable predicament. I take her hand and pull her out of the hotel room and we take the elevator downstairs to the bar.
Ally's POV
We walk into the bar with Dez's hand on the small of my back, see that the paint is a neutral nude color and the decor has red lantern style sconces throughout the bar. The bar itself is a charcoal gray, the back of the bar the central focus is what looks like the root of the tree and at the top it shows the green to represent the leaves, but the top of it is like stainless glass. The backs of the bar stools are a green fabric. We pull ourselves up to the bar, see that it's relatively busy, not insanely packed but busy enough to keep the bartender running around. In the bar there are also high top table and low top tables as well.
The bar has a couple of bachelors, a few couples and this guy with light brown hair at the very end of the bar. I motion for Dez to take a seat as we anxiously wait for the mysterious person to approach us. We take out seats and I can see at the end of the bar this guy is humming something to himself, I'm not sure what, but I wonder if he's the guy that's headlining for me. I see him being approached and then chatting up a woman, he's extremely close to her face and whispering something in her ear. I avert my eyes the second he catches me staring at him. Way to be subtle Ally. Out of the corner of my eye, I see that he's taken out his phone and then I see the brunette woman get up and walk out of the bar, but not before he slyly gives her his room key I'm guessing.
We're sitting at the bar for a few minutes before the brawny bartender comes up, says with his sexy Irish accent, "What can I get for you lass?"
"I'd like a shot of Jameson." I look at Dez, tell the bartender, "Make that two." He pours the shots and brings them over to us winking at me. I feel Dez's body start to stiffen besides me. I decided to brush it off though, I mean if he's not fine he'll tell me. Right?
"Cheers to the amazing adventures we'll experience on tour!"
I take my shot, and as I suspected the guy with light brown hair comes up behind me, "You must be Ally Dawson." This guy's voice just sounds incredibly hot and he's definitely got swag. I turn to face him, startled by his apparent lack of respect for personal space, "And you are?"
"Logan. Logan Carter." He flashes a panty dropping smile in my direction.
Ah, so he's the player and womanizer type of guy. I'm not falling for that crap again even though he's insanely hot.
"Well Logan, you're invading my personal space right now. So back the fuck off."
He walks from behind me so he's now in front of me. "Relax Gorgeous, I'm headlining your international tour." Once he's facing me I find myself hypnotized by his emerald green eyes, probably about twenty-five or so. Now that I have a better look at him, he's tall in stature about 6'2, with an athletic build and perfectly tanned skin. He's wearing a white t-shirt with a leather jacket, dark washed jeans and his hair short but medium length and long enough to run my hands through. He's sex on a stick. I'm sure he'd be more than willing to help me get over Austin based on what I saw before from his interaction with that redheaded woman.
I notice that Dez hasn't said anything, he has his arm around my chair protectively that way if Logan gets out of line with me he's ready to react. Logan smirks, says, "You must be her bodyguard."
"Actually, I'm one of her best friends...Asshole." His voice sounds rough and edgy.
"Dez!"
"Right, I'm sure that's because Ally's boyfriend over here is Austin Moon." Logan looks at Dez and smirks.
Say what!
"Austin isn't my boyfriend."
"Really now? I think that these pictures prove otherwise." Logan pulls out his phone, shows me the images from when Dez and I left Miami including the picture of Austin collapsed on his knees with his face and hands in his hair.
"Again, dick. I'm not with Austin."
"Good, because you could do way better."
"Excuse me?!"
"Yeah, especially when you have me standing right in front of you."
Dez interjects, "And what do you think that you know about my best friend Austin? I can see right through your charm. If you think about coming anywhere close to Ally I swear to God I'll kick your ass."
"Cool it Red. Hey, why don't we go out and party tonight at Temple Bar in town?"
"What do you say?"
"I'll think about it." Logan takes my phone, puts his phone number in it. He gets up, kisses my cheek leaving Dez and I both stunned and walks out of the bar and I can only assume that he went up to his room where the redhead is probably waiting for him.
Final thoughts? Whoa! It's quite possible that this guy is about to turn everything Upside Down.
