2nd last chapter!
Ally POV:
Austin and I had finally finished writing our song 'You Can Come to Me' it was a process but I'm happy with the way it turned out. We decided it would be an acoustic duet with a few harmonies.
We had only practiced the whole song fully a few times so I was quite nervous to perform in front of our class. "Austin, I'm not sure I can do this, I'm really nervous" I was biting my nails, a nervous habit I picked up years ago. Austin grabbed my hand from my mouth and said "There's no reason to be nervous, you're gonna be great Ally. Your voice is amazing." I smile at him. "You're right Austin, I can do it!"
"That's the spirit! C'mon let's do this!" He says excitedly and holds his hand out and I grab it holding on tightly.
….You can come to me, yeah..
The class and teacher start cheering, they loved it! We walk back to our seats and I can't contain how happy and proud I am of Austin.
I turn to him "We did it! I'm so proud of you, you need to write more songs cause that was amazing." I give him a big hug. "There's no way I could've done this without you Ally. Most of what I wrote was inspired by you." I try to hide the smile making it's way onto my face.
"Are you two dating?" A small girl appears from behind Austin, it was Jordan Miller who was very talented at playing the piano.
"Uh no we are not. Not right now at least." Austin answered for both of us.
"Oh okay, well in that case, you should call me later Austin." She winks at him and walks away. He chuckles and starts talking to other friends.
'Not right now at least.' What did he mean by that? Does that mean he's going to ask me out soon? Ugh I just want to be together and official. I don't like hiding whatever we have going on. I just want to be able to shout 'HEY WORLD AUSTIN MOON IS MY BOYFRIEND' He's making this so difficult. If you tell a girl you're in love with them wouldn't you want to date them or something? If he doesn't do something soon I'm gonna burst.
*hours later at Austin's house*
Austin POV:
It's around midnight and I'm lying in my bed wide awake, thinking. Thinking about school, my friends, the song and Ally. Ally is all I've been thinking about since I met her practically. I think about her smile, how her hair is always curled to perfection, her big doe like eyes. There isn't a thing I don't like about Ally Dawson. All I wanted was her and I knew I could have her too. I was so scared of saying the wrong thing. All of these bad thoughts kept coming into my mind so I picked up my guitar and start strumming to take my mind off everything.
As I was strumming all of these lyrics come into my mind and I scribble them down on a piece of paper.
"Now I'm singing all the words I'm scared to say, yeah
So forgive me if I'm doing this all wrong,
I'm trying my best in this song is to tell you,
What can I do?
I'm stuck on you"
I am truly 'stuck' on Ally Dawson. If I don't make anything official soon, she's going to get tired of me and move on. I just really don't want to mess up my chances.
What if she doesn't even feel the same way? What if I'm just reading all of her signals wrong. I can't believe that I'm even thinking things like this! I'm Austin Moon for christ sake! Girls love me.
Ally wasn't like other girls though, she saw right through me. I continue writing to stop all of these thoughts.
"I'm hoping you feel what I do,
Cause I told mom about you, I told her
What can I do?
I'm stuck on you.
And like the night sticks to the moon..
Girl, I'm stuck on you."
I haven't ever written a song by myself so I'm surprised this song is complete trash. Writing all my feelings down on a piece of paper and turning it into a song makes everything feel better. I now know why Ally does it. It feels like all your problems suddenly disappear, writing down everything you're too scared to say out loud.
Kinda short, sorry ahh
