The Power of Music

by SimplyDonna

Austin and Ally haven't become partners. Ally is the shy, timid girl, and Austin is the rocker, out of control, and very popular. They go to the same school, but Austin doesn't know Ally exists. Ally doesn't lift her head out of the books long enough to notice anyone at all, except Trish, her best friend. Austin and Dez aren't friends. Will fate bring them together?

21. Chapter 24

Austin's POV

Just a day, just an ordinary day.

You know what I've learned, no matter what, life goes on. And its doing just that. I go to school every day, hang out with friends and party on the weekends. Homework taunts me and my parents scold me to work around the house. I practice on my keyboard all the time, and my friends and I have been trying to really get the band going. It's not that its going bad, we just haven't been able to do anything besides covers. We have no original material.

Besides, I've always wanted more of a solo career.

Anyway, my point is, life goes on.

However, not a second goes by that I don't think about Ally, and how much I want to be with her.

I know what you're wondering, what am I doing to show Ally I really won't leave her behind? Well, really...I'm not doing anything.

Okay, what I mean is, I'm not trying to make a move on Ally.

I decided that the best way to show her I'm there for her, is to be friends and build up trust, until she finally feels comfortable.

It's been 3 weeks since our almost kiss, and I think things are going okay. It's kind of hard, I want to grab her hand, hug her, kiss her. But I know that she needs some space, at least for a while.

Hopefully, it won't be long until she finally understands that I would never hurt her in any way possible.
