Chapter 21

Austin's P.O.V.

Big Time Rush had left a couple hours after James had hit on Ally. Needless to say, I don't really care for him right now.

Trish and Dez walked into Sonic Boom and stopped as soon as they got in the door. Well, Dez only stopped, because he bumped into Trish. She turned around and gave him a death glare.

"You must be Trish and Dez. We've heard a lot about you guys." Tiff was talking throughout each giggle.

"Umm, yeah. How do you know us?" Trish was confused. I have to admit, I would be too.

"Oh, we met Austin and Ally in St. Louis at Six Flags. Plus, we got Ally to ride the Batman!" Sarah chimed in.

"You actually got Ally onto a roller coaster?! That's amazing! So, I know what Ally said about me, but what did they say about Doofus, over here?" Trish pointed behind her. Dez had a delayed reaction.

"Hey!" Trish laughed at Dez.

"What are you getting do offended over? I call you that all the time. I also call you Ginger, Freckles, and a whole bunch of other stuff." Trish would've kept going on and on with names if it wasn't for Ally glaring at her.

"Anyway, I'm Sarah. It's nice to finally meet you guys."

"I'm Tiffany, but you guys can call me Tiff."

We all hung out at Sonic Boom until closing time. Ally, Tiff, and Sarah were the last ones out of the store. I walked all the way back to Ally's with them. After all, I live, like, three blocks away.

Tiff's P.O.V.

On our way back to Ally's house, I saw a little sign sitting by the mall entrance. It said:

Book Signing: Annabel Lee at the Miami book store.

I knew her from somewhere, I just can't put my finger on it. Oh well, I'll ask Sarah about her when we get back to Ally's.

We had finally got to Ally's house and said goodbye to Austin. Ally kissed Austin on the lips before she came inside. The front door was closed, but who's to say I wasn't spying.

When Ally had come in, we all went up to my bedroom. We did all sorts of things, like play games and other stuff. Oh, I almost forgot to ask Sarah.

"Hey, Sarah? Who is Annabel Lee? I know her from somewhere."

"Oh, I know! We went to middle school together. She became an author in her sophomore year." Sarah was right. Now, I remember! Sarah and Annabel were some of my smartest friends, but didn't share all of the smart factoids.

"Oh my gosh! We have to go and see her when she comes to Miami next week." I am so excited. I can't wait to see her!

"Yeah. Well, I'm going to bed. Night, Tiff. Night, Ally." Sarah walked off to her room, then soon after, Ally went to her bedroom.

Austin's P.O.V.

As soon as I got home, I went straight to bed. I was too tired to do anything else. The only thing about tonight, I had the freakiest dream ever.

Ally, Trish, Sarah, and Tiff were tied up to chairs, while Jake, Ryder, Dez, and I were stuck behind this sheet of plexiglas. The girls looked so helpless. Then, Dallas and Kira both came out of nowhere. I started to scream at the top of my lungs to try to get someone to help us.

Dallas took the girls up some stairs and Kira kept an eye on us. I was panicking, because I hated having Ally near Dallas without me or one of my brothers around (no offense, Dez). What's even worse, is that he has all four of the girls. I didn't even know what was going on.

Suddenly, I heard a scream, then a few more. Everything after that was a blur.
