Hey guys I'm back with a new chapter before you begin I'd like to thank all of you who commented. It makes me really happy to hear that you guys have all these different emotions throughout the story and even as the writer my own writing frustrates me as well but just bear with me and know that Austin does what he does out of love for Ally. On to the story!
Ally POV
"The moment he open those eyes I'm going to kill him jesus" Trish ranting has been going on for about an hour now. Dez is next to me asleep on our couch but Trish frustration and pacing hasn't noticed yet. "I mean who the hell does that he could have been beaten to death. Ally Austin has become psycho Ally! Don't you dare fall asleep too." Trish shouts startle me but my eyes soon close again until another shriek wakes me up.
"Trish it's four a.m. I need sleep what do you want me to tell you we were drunk I agree Alex didn't know what he was doing. Austin is Austin Trish you can't suddenly be surprised by his action. I'm going to sleep you can scream at us in the morning. Get Dez a blanket it's freezing here" I stand up trying to get too my room. I turn around to find Trish glaring at Alex who is thrown on the opposite who looks on the verge of dead. "Trish" I speak firmly she grumbles but nods and throws a blanket at both Dez and Alex and slams her bedroom door. I shake my head not looking forward to her morning wrath.
"Allyson get up" Trish knocks loudly at my door. "I'm up I'm up what time is it" I shout not wanting to get out of bed. "It's nine get your butt into the living room" I hear her footsteps fade away. I get out of bed and carry my body all the way into the living room where I find a half asleep Dez who has unfocused eyes and Alex who's face is swollen and can barely open his eyes. The big clock points to six a.m. I glare at the smirking Trish.
"No way I'm going to sleep" I almost make it out of the living room. "Ally sit down you said we'd all talk in the morning" Trish barks. I grumble as I take a sit next to the half-asleep Dez "This your idea" he whispers in my ear. "No when I meant morning I did not mean two hours later geez Trish look at them they look dead and I don't think I look much better" I look at her with unfocused eyes.
"I don't care what you guys need were going to talk starting with you" Trish points at Alex as his eyes widen in panic. "I haven't known you too long Alex but from the time I've known you. You didn't seem stupid enough to do what you did in that club what was the point of that hmm. Austin looked crazy and then too top it off you kissed her jesus I thought you were dead." Trish eyes narrowed and she was breathing heavily but Alex just smiled.
"I just needed to see how deep Austin would go for Ally apparently it's really deep" he grimaces as he tries to stretch. "I thought we had to take you to the hospital you couldn't even open your eyes you still can't open your eyes. Promise you'll never do anything as stupid as that with Austin again" she says outraged. "Promise" he croakes. Trish glares turns from Alex to Dez.
Dez groans loudly "What did I do?" he asks. "Ally told you to stop it and you stood there smirking while Alex was being beaten to death" she glares at him. "In my defense I knew Austin wasn't going to kill him just mildly hurt him. Even if I wanted to stop him I couldn't Austin wasn't just mad he had a look of insanity in his eyes like hell if I would stop him" Dez shuddered as Trish eye twitched. "That's your excuse" she said Dez nodded as she muttered idiot and her glare moved on to me.
"Ally now you didn't do much but you kissed Austin that wasn't part of plan" She started tapping her foot ready for my excuse. "Well Trish seeing as the plan isn't really in motion anymore and that Austin had the look of crazy I did what I had to do" I say glaring back. "You could've told me and I would have looked for another solution and the plan is still in motion there was just a minor problem "Trish look at the ground as I feel my own rage coming. My throat clogs up as I laugh hysterically not believing her own words.
Alex, Dez and Trish look at me as if I was losing it Alex smirks and says "And I thought Austin was the crazy one" he shakes his head. I ignore his comment "Minor jesus Trish when is it going to click in your head that Austin has moved on we were not made for each other I moved on so I'd suggest all of you do" I spit look at them. "Moved on were you not there last night and that kiss please Ally don't full yourself you don't know all he has giving-" Dez cuts in.
"That's enough Trish if she wants to move on she can as her friends we have to respect that" he looks at her knowingly. I look between them as Alex raises an eyebrow but neither one of us asks. "I have a class in an hour I should start getting ready. I start walking away as Trish says "By the way we were invited to a bonfire tonight" "Great" I mutter as I slam the door.
Pass class by quickly I try to focus but at the back of the class gossiping and giggling could be heard. I roll my eyes the scene reminding me a little too much of high school. As class ends I pack all my supplies and head out when I see Cassidy in front of me not moving. "Do you need something or do you just like to stand in people ways" I ask aggravated. "Sweetie I think the one who stands in people's way is you" she says in her overly squeaky voice making me internally cringe.
"Listen I don't know what your problem is but I have better things than to gossip with you over stupid things this isn't high school anymore sweetie grow up" I shove pass her. "That's what I'm thinking but you're the one who's all over my man. What Ally mad that he doesn't even give you a second glance. Honey after so many refuses from him you starting to look desperate." I hear her arrogance through every word and it takes all of me to not punch her fake nose.
So I turn around with a fake smile "Listen honey if you're really standing here fighting over something that's all ready yours maybe I'm not the problem maybe your man-whore of a boyfriend is the problem. A guy like that you could gladly keep" I say giving her one more glance before walking away from the fuming blonde.
As I make it to my apartment I close the door leaning on it thinking of telling Trish what just happened when I hear. "You were this close to exposing everything Trish this close" Dez whispers to Trish. "I know I'm sorry I was just so mad at her, him, everyone. She's been so distant lately it's scaring me she has the right to know" Trish whispers. "I know Trish but that's not our call to make we just have to watch her more okay" he whispers back. I hear footsteps coming towards the living room I pretend to close the door.
"Hey guys I just got back anything happened while I was gone" hoping they would tell me what they were talking about hoping it wasn't about me. They remain with no emotion "Nothing much" Dez shrugs casually. My eyes threaten to narrow and I want to scream at them but on the outside I remain emotionless. "How about you anything interesting" Trish asks. "Nothing it was pretty uneventful" I say shrugging.
As Trish and I get ready for the bonfire I casually drop hints letting her know she can tell me whatever Dez and her are hiding. She never says anything which only irritates me further. "Alright let's go" Dez said as I looked around. "Where's Alex at" I say. "He said he needed rest and I would understand with that beating he took" Dez says shaking his head.
We make it to Chandelier Beach a small beach that's vacant except for the thirty or so people around the source of light. "Alright guys let's go enjoy some mother nature" I nod stiffly at Trish's remark not really looking forward to tonight.
As the night went on I saw people dance, drink and laugh. Many offered to dance with me when they turned on the music I probably look miserable sitting alone watching the fire. For once all I wanted was to look around as other got drunk and wild. "Do you want to dance Alls" I was about to tell whoever it was to go away but the last word stuck with me. "Alls" I whispered I look up to see a smiling Austin I hesitate for a moment but I nod giving up.
"You seemed a little lonely there" he said whisking me away as we danced. "Not lonely I just wanted to observe tonight" I say shrugging my shoulder as he raises an eyebrow. "Let me get this straight you came to this party to watch others have fun" he said looking down at me. I can't help but smile at how stupid it sounds but I nod he chuckles and looks down at me dearly. My eyes tear up at how much I missed our talks, how much I missed him. He seems to know what I'm thinking because he tenses up "Alls-" but I cut him off. "Where just dancing Austin" I laugh forcefully he seems to sense it but doesn't say anything.
"This bitch again how many times do I have to say this he doesn't want you" Cassidy screeches from the other side of the bonfire. Austin groans but leaves me to go control Cassidy as everyone starts to stare at me some with pity I roll my eyes. "Tell her Austin what you tell me everyday tell her so this bitch can get it through her head" Cassidy huffs as Austin tries to restrain her. "Alls I-" Austin eyes widen in horror "Austin tell her or I will" Cassidy screeches. Austin looks down and nods "She doesn't mean anything just another slut who likes to rub herself on top of me. Who thinks she's good enough to ever be as good as Cassidy or to ever good enough to be with me" Austin whispers. Cassidy smiles innocently and wraps Austin arms around herself but Austin doesn't take his eyes off the ground.
Gasps are heard throughout the bonfire as everything goes quiet everyone's eyes burns through me. I'm frozen my mind goes blank not knowing what to say or do. "Come on Ally everyone knows who's the real slut here" Dez shouts as Trish and him pull me away from all the questioning stares. On the road Trish cuts off the silence "Ally you know Austin he was drunk didn't know what he was saying" she whispers.
"Holy shit Trish don't you ever stop and hear yourself everytime he does and says something that hurts me you defend him. He knows what he's doing he knows what comes out of his mouth and for you my best friend to defend him well then your full of shit" I spit at her my mind going from blank to full rage. Trish gasps "Ally you know that's not true I want the best for both of you".
"Then for once keep your opinion to yourself me and that asshole will never ever get back together I am done of dealing with his moods. One day he wants me the next he calls me a slut but both of you don't see that you see Austin and Ally the quarterback and the cheer Captain the "it couple" and if you don't see how selfish that is then I don't know what to say". I huff in frustration "Ally you just don't understand that's why you see it like that" Dez tugs at his hair. "Right but maybe if you told me about this secret of yours maybe then I would understand right" I say smirking at them thier faces drop instantly.
"Ally we were going to tell you but it's just become so stressful so complicated look at you this is not you" Trish whispers. "I'm not the one who has changed you both known this major secret for how long" I whisper. "Ally it doesn't matter" Trish voice cracks. "How long" I say through gritted teeth. "Three months" she whispers my eyes widened. "That's when Austin and I broke up before graduation all this time you knew something all this time you lied to my face stop the car" I shout.
"Ally-" Dez says in a warning tone. "So help me Dez stop this car or I'll jump off your choice" I say. "Goddammit" Dez says as he stops the car I get off slam the door. "Ally where are you going" Trish shouts as I ran off. "Dez call Austin" Trish shouts I run until the car is only a shadow.
I knock at the door "Hey Alex it's me Ally" the door opens revealing a half asleep Alex. "Ally what's wrong" his faces changes into one of concern. "Everything has gone to shit" I whisper as he pulls me into a hug.
So I hope you guys liked it please don't forget to comment this was quite an eventful chapter there's more to come with Austin involvement maybe he might be able to sort out this mess? Secrets will be spilled and friendships will be put at risks Happy early New Year's till next time- Story Lover8 :)
