Chapter 11: Baby, I'm Your Biggest Fan
(Austin's point of view)
I head straight to the diner, where I see Cassidy and…Trish eating lunch together like they were old friends. I head straight for their table.
"What the hell did you do to Ally?" I ask my anger over taking me. Cassidy looked up an innocent look playing on her face; I can tell she's hiding a smile, "I don't have the faints idea of what you're talking about Blondie."
She obviously isn't going to be any help, I thought as the gears work in my head. I glare at her for another moment, before I turn to the short Latina that's sitting across from her.
"You played a part in this too, didn't you." It may sound like a question, but it wasn't. I knew she played some part in Ally's change of heart. Because there was no way her and Cassidy would be friends unless they had something in common, and in this case the common object was Ally…
"Look Blondie, all we did was told her the truth." Trish explains with a scowl of her own, crossing her arms under her chest. I shake my head, what was this 'truth' everyone kept talking about?
"What truth?" I demand mirroring her actions.
"That you eventually you'd get bored and leave her." Cassidy answers for her. I turn to her. She crosses her arms and puts one leg on top of the other. She smirks. I used to find that smirk attractive, but now? All I want to do is wipe that smirk off her face.
"Get this through your thick tiny skull Cassidy," I growl getting right in her face, "I'm never ever going to get tired of Ally. I. Love. Her. Okay?"
I storm out of the diner not giving either of them time to answer, but I could tell they're in a state shock. I take a seat on the edge of the fountain; holding my head in my hands, thinking of a way I could fix this.
"Are you okay?" I hear a small, but familiar voice ask. I turn my head to see the piano playing prodigy: Lacey Cross. I shake my head, a frown on my face.
"What's wrong?" Her voice is shy and timid. Don't ask me why I did, but I begin telling her about my problems.
"You've tried talking to her right?" She asks again her voice is soft. It's almost like she's afraid I'd hurt her if she spoke any louder. I give her a nod, as the frown on my face becomes deeper.
"Then try a different approach." She says it as if it's simple, but I don't have a clue what to do.
"Like what?" I ask, becoming curious as to what she has in mind.
"Use something she understands," She says looking down playing with her fingers. She looks back up at me, "Write her a song."
I sigh in frustration looking up at the dome shaped celling, "I can sing, dance, and play almost every instrument known to man, but I can't write a song worth a damn."
I look at her suddenly remembering she's a kid, "Sorry. Dang."
"It's fine," She gives a soft laugh, "My Dad cusses all the time."
"As for writing a song, it's easy. I can help you… if you want." She tells me, looking down while blushing a deep red color.
"Really," I ask giving her a grin, "That'd be amazing. Thank you Lacey!"
Over two hours later we had a song. Not just any song, the perfect song… I know for a fact that Ally was going to love it.
"This is amazing Lacey! Thank you so much!" I exclaim giving her a hug. She tenses at first, but then she relaxes and hugs me back.
"Can I ask you a question?" I ask the eleven year old, pulling back from the hug. She nods shrugging, folding her arms.
"Why are… Why are you so shy?" I ask looking at her. I watch her reaction. I watch as her expression turns into sadness. She looks down I see a tear make a small stain on her jeans.
"Hey, it's okay you don't have to tell me. I was just curios…" I say, not knowing how to console her.
She sighs tightening her arms around herself, "My parents are divorced," She explains, "They got divorced because of me. When I was younger she used to threaten me with knives… That's why I'm so shy."
"I'm sorry." I say horrified at what this girl has been though, rubbing her back.
"It's not your fault. I just wish I'm not shy." She sighs, as another makes its way onto her jeans.
"Why?"
"The kids at my school they bully me…"
I look at her, shock on my face. Who could bully such a sweet little girl like Lacey?
"Doesn't your older brother or sister do something about it?" I ask suddenly feeling bad. She shakes her head, "I'm an only child."
Suddenly the gears in my head start turning, "What if I be your surrogate brother?"
"What?"
I clairify, "If anyone messes with you, tell me and I'll take care of it."
She looks at me confused before she smiles very small and says, "Okay."
After my chat with Lacey, I head to Sonic Boom. I tip-toe up to the practice room to see Ally sitting on the piano bench staring at her hands. I quietly go back down stairs to change the sign from OPEN to CLOSED. I walk back up stairs.
"Ally," I say from the door way making my presence be known. She looks up with a narrowed eyed glare on her face, "Go away Austin I don't want to talk to you."
I step into the room shutting the door behind me, "But I want to talk to you. And we're not going anywhere until you hear me out."
She glares at me for a few more moments like she was trying to decide if I was serious or not. I guess she does because she sighs, "You have ten minutes."
I sigh in relief walking over to her sitting down beside her. I pull her into my lap. Then I grab my guitar setting it lightly on her lap. I know this isn't your typical way of singing a song to a girl, but I feel this way; Ally will actually feel the song Lacey and I wrote rather than just hearing it.
"I um wrote you a song," I tell her, "With help from Lacey."
Then I begin to strum my guitar.
Baby, I'm Your Biggest Fan
I never thought I would, did it
Never thought I could
I did it like that, did it like this
Did it like everybody knows
That we got something real, shorty
I know what I feel
Shout it like that
Shout it like this
Listen up, everybody knows but you,
So here it goes
Cause I never really noticed
Took a while for me to see
Playing back the moments
Now I'm starting to believe
That you could be at the show and know every word
But it's you who makes me sing
I may not know where we are but I know who I am
Baby, I'm your biggest fan, oh
Every time you smile for me
Takes me a while to bring myself back
Cause your all that
And I just had to let you know
That I'm screaming out in the crowd for you
I can be too loud 'cause I don't care
I let 'em all stare
I just want everyone to know the truth,
It's only you
I never really noticed
Took a while for me see (a while for me to see)
Playing back the moments
Now I'm starting to believe (starting to believe)
That you could be at the show and know every word
But it's you who makes me sing
I may not know where we are but I know who I am
Baby, I'm your biggest fan
You showed up and you looked so classy
Made me think twice 'bout the way I was acting
You were real from the start of it all
Like a dream came to life, now I'm left in awe
Stars shine but your light is the brightest
Love flies but your love is the highest
You're so sweet that it drives me crazy
A time like no other, you're my L.A. baby
I never really noticed
Took a while for me to see
Playing back the moments
Now I'm starting to believe
That you could be at the show and know every word
But it's you who makes me sing
I may not know where we are but I know who I am
Baby, I'm your biggest fan, oh
Baby, I'm your biggest fan, oh
That you could be at the show and know every word
But it's you who makes me sing
I may not know where we are but I know who I am
Baby, I'm your biggest fan (1)
I know she started to forgive me during the middle of the song, because she turned in my lap (Careful not to disturb my playing) wrapped her arms around my neck and nuzzled into it.
"Ally," I say in a desperate tone as I put the instrument down, "What the told you…it wasn't true, none of it. When I visited Cassidy that day, I told her to leave us alone…"
Her voice is muffled by my neck as she speaks, "I believe you."
"Good," I tell her as she looks up at me, "Because I'm your biggest fan. And I love you…"
Her eyes widen to the point where they can't get any wider. Then she grins, "I love you too Austin."
I let out a sigh of relief as I lean down and kiss her.
I'm so sorry! I didn't mean to update this late, but when I wrote it the first time; I ended up hating it, so I rewrote then I hated that on to… Anyways I wrote like five different times and I'm still not completely happy with it. Maybe because this last chapter means the story is finished…
No shoutouts! Everyone gets one! :D
