This wasn't happening right now it couldn't, tonight was going so well but as I stared back into my girlfriends eyes that were brimming with tears ready to fall at any moment it hit me dead on that this was in fact happening and I had fucked up. Ally shook her head, "I'm not doing this anymore" brushing past me, I spun around running after her, "Ally wait!" She stopped at the bottom of the stone stairs turning back around to face me, I swallowed, my heart was pounding, "wh-what do you mean your not doing this anymore?" I asked, my voice shaking, I couldn't loose her not when I just got her, not because of Brooke and my stupidity, god please no. "This..." she threw her arms around gesturing to everything, "I don't belong here Austin..and.." I shook my head no no no please don't say it, of course she belongs here and she belongs here with me. Closing the distance between us I clutched her small hand in mine, "Ally please don't do this, I care about you, I don't want to loose you, I'm so so sorry, please" I begged, my voice shaking with every word I spoke.

Pulling her hand out of mine I felt my heart stop, "please" I begged again in a whisper, "I don't belong with you Austin..." she said, her eyes shut tight, "Ally no!" stepping closer to her pressing my forehead to hers, "ladies and gentlemen, we had one amazing performance tongiht, now lets give it up for our next one and my very own brother Austin...Moooonnnnn!" Cass's voice amplified throughout the yard, shit no now please!, "Ally please..." I whispered to her, she stepped away from me, "I have to go" she turned and ran up the stairs, "Ally!" I called after her, I was about to run after when I was completely surrounded in a bright spotlight, "dammit" I cursed to myself, forcing a smile on my face I turned to face the cheering crowd.

Cassidy was up on stage smiling brightly waving me up, I took another glance behind me but Ally was no where in sight. I walked up on stage Cassidy handed me the mic and hurried offstage as the music to "better than this" began, right now I was feeling anything but better. Taking a deep breathe and kepping the smile plastered on my face I raised the mic to my lips, "you all having a good time tonight?!" I called out, the party cheered, nodding my head, "alright lets do this..."

If I could stop the world tonight

I would freeze this moment in the time

Oh if I only could

Our bodies dance like the wind over and over again

In a perfect sky...

I watched Austin from the side of the stage, he was doing amazing now, I was so happy and so proud of my baby bro. I glanced over at the bar and saw the guys all talking, they all looked deep in conversation, stern expressions on all their faces. As I made my way through the dancing crowd I realized I didn't see Ally or the girls anywhere...were they seriously still in the bathroom? I shook my head laughing, reaching the guys, "hey what with all the long faces? This is a party your suppose to be having fun" I said over Austin's performance. The four of them immediately stopped talking turning to face me, I stared at each of them confused shaking my head, "you guys are weird, where are the girls?" I asked casually changing the subject. "They haven't come back from the bathroom yet" Elliot answered, I nodded smirking, "and Ally?" I asked, all their eyes widened, "uh um I think I saw her go up to the house a few minutes before Austin went on" Dez said quickly. I quirked an eyebrow at him before nodding, "she probably went to see whats taking the other three so long, "so what were we talking so deeply about a moment ago?" I asked referring back to their odd behavior, the four looked at each other not saying anything, "ummm Cass..." Bzzzz Bzzzz Bzzzz, I fished my phone out of the front of my bra glancing at the I.D. it was Liana, holding my finger up to the guys I smiled, "its Liana be right back" I said walking back towards the house where I could hear.

"Hey Li, hold on one sec let me get inside where I can hear, where the heck are you girls?" I walked to the top of the steps and through the french doors into Johns sitting room, "wait you left?! why?...thats how you found her? what happened?...WHAT?!" I spun around staring out the back doors down at my brother finishing up his performance, "yea no I'm still hear Li, is she okay?...I'll stop by tomorrow, I have some 'business' to tend to at the moment, you girls take care of her, I'll call you tomorrow...okay...bye" I snapped my phone shut as I continued to glare down at my brother who was taking a final bow and then running off the stage towards the guys.

Giving a final wave to the crowd I dropped the mic and bolted offstage towards the guys who were all watching me, "I have to go find Ally" I said frantic, the guys all nodded, "Cassidy just went up into the house, Liana called her so their probably all up there lets go" Dallas said, the five of us ran up the stone steps towards the house and through the back doors. We froze when we saw Cassidy leaning up against the doorframe leading into the hall, "Cass have you seen Ally or the girls?" I asked trying to not sound frantic. Cassidy just stared back at me, well more like glared, "Dallas shut the back door" she said, a second later the loud frenzie from out back was muffled and we were all in silence. "Austin...would you please explain to me why I just received a call from Liana saying that her and the girls left the party a little while ago?" My mouth dropped open, "all four of them left?" Trent asked from behind me, Cassidy nodded not taking her eyes off me, "and I assume you all know why they left, due to my brother's FUCKING STUPIDITY! The girls were coming out of the bathroom and they found YOUR girlfriend on the hallway floor bawling her eyes out!" she hollered taking a few steps towards me.

"Cass calm down..." Dallas began, "don't you DARE try to tell me to fucking calm down Dallas Centino, don't you dare!" she growled at him, "Austin it is taking everything I have to not beat the shit out of you because I want to give you a chance to explain your side of what happened with Brooke fucking Stephens last Sunday, because I got a quick overplay from Liana who couldn't really go into detail, but from what I understand a bare ass Brooke was found in YOUR jacuzzi when you got home, you told her to leave, she kissed you, and instead of informing your current girlfriend Ally Dawson of what happened...YOU! kept it from her that is until Stephens showed up tonight and decided to bring up the little piece of information in front of Ally, now did I miss anything important?!" she asked. I dropped my head not wanting to look her in the eye and shook my head, "Austin..." her voice was softer now, sympathetic even, "look at me" she said in the same tone, I lifted my head meeting her gaze, her eyes were soft and sincere, she shook her head, "why? Why wouldn't you tell her Austin, if Brooke hadn't shown up tonight and pulled the cat out of the bag, would you have ever told Ally about what happened?" she asked.

I sighed, grabbing my hair and pulling it, I tossed my mask to the side and sat down in one of the couches, resting my elbows on my knees I dropped my head, "I fucked up Cass, I hurt her, I didn't even kiss Brooke back and yet I feel like I cheated on her, I honestly don't know if I would have ever told her because Brooke means nothing to me, I dealt with the situation and I thought I had dealt with it correctly..." I sighed looking up at my sister, she nodded urging me to go on, "...I'm not used to communicating with someone about everything, you of all people know that about me I haven't been in a committed relationship since junior year of high school, shit that's what 7 fucking years, and I finally meet the most amazing woman I've ever come to cross paths with, and three weeks in I commit one of the ultimate fuck ups" I said through gritted teeth, the thought of everything replaying in my head just pissed me off all over again. I balled my fists up til my knuckles were white and my hands were shaking, Cassidy kneeled down in front of me placing her hand over mine, "Austin, you know you fucked up, and you learn from things like this, you need to put yourself in Ally's position, lets say Collin showed up to her place and put the moves on her.. " my eyes widened and my whole body tensed up, "...even though she doesn't let anything get farther than a stolen kiss and she throws him out, how would you feel if she didn't tell you and you ended up finding out through the great vine?" she asked. I stared at my sister for a moment letting her words sink in, I slowly nodded, "I know I'd definitely want to beat the shit out of Collin for even coming near her that's for damn sure, and I'd feel...betrayed and well pissed off that she didn't tell me" I answered.

Cassidy nodded, "well now you have a window into how Ally is probably feeling right now, I'd say more hurt then pissed, but Austin I don't she's upset about what you think she's upset about" Cassidy said, I stared at her confused and so did the guys, she giggled a little bit and stood up, "I'm not gonna have the conversation with you, that's between you and Ally, I don't know that things will be fixed Austin and I hope your prepared for that but I hope there is a chance" she said. "I am however going to give you some sisterly advice on the world of women, she's hurting like hell right now, her heart is most likely broken, you need to be there for her without being there for her," she explained, "huh?" the five of us guys all said in unison, Cass just rolled her eyes, "Austin you need to give her space, don't go showing up at her door every day..." she began, "Cass she told me she doesn't belong with me, she b-broke up with me tonight, I-I have to get her back I can't just step aside and watch like nothing happened" I said angrily. Cass held up her hand, "for right now Austin you need to show her you care from a distance, this is a whole different ball game with you and Ally, she broke up with her boyfriend just over a month ago and has been dating you for the past three weeks, her heart can't take much more right now, let her breathe...and then maybe talk to her on Monday...okay?" she said.

I sighed, "I'll stay away physically until Monday, but I'm not giving up on her Cassidy, I'm sorry but I'm going to do everything in my power to show her how much she means to me, to show her that I know how much I screwed up, and I'm going to show her that she does belong with me...b-because I need to be with her" I gasped out. Cass pulled me into a hug, "oh Austin" she soothed rubbing my back, "I hope you get her back, I really do" she whispered, I nodded clutching her tightly as a few tears slid down my face. "Come on Cass, Aus, I think we've all had enough of tonight, lets all head home" Dallas said coming up to us, Cass pulled away and helped me stand from the couch, the guys patted me on the back, "you good man?" Trent asked, I shook my head, "I'm not, but I don't deserve to be right now...lets go" I said walking towards the hall, Dallas grabbed Cassidy's hand and the rest of them followed me out of the house and to our cars.

Cassidy and Dallas got into her car as the guys piled into my truck, I pulled my phone from my back pocket my blood began to boil when I saw a missed call and text from Brooke...Amazing performance, you disappeared right after though, I've been looking for you, meet me at the pool at midnight xxxB, "GODDAMIT WHY WON'T SHE FUCKING STOP!" I yelled making the guys jump, "shit dude, who the fuck are you talking about!?" Trent snapped from the backseat, I held up my phone for him to read, "jesus christ, she's a fucking bitch, how many times are you going to have to put her in her place?" he sneered. I shook my head and hit reply, WHEN WILL YOU GET THE FUCKING PICTURE I DO NOT WANT TO HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH YOU ANYMORE, STAY OUT OF MY LIFE AND MY RELATIONSHIP I hit send and then opened a new message for Ally...

I know that you probably don't want to talk to me right now and I'll do the best that I can to respect that, but I'm not giving up on you Ally I'm not giving up on us, I meant what I said tonight I would and will always do whatever it takes to make you happy, safe and mine. In just a short time you've come to mean so much to me, I'm not gonna be stupid like that ever again, I don't want to loose you, not when I just got you...I'll fight for you Alls, I'll always fight for you.

I reread the text, my heart was frantically pounding, I took a deep breath and hit send, Dez patted me on the shoulder, I looked up at him and he gave me a half smile, "like Cass said bro, just give her time, I don't think any of us believe that yours and Ally's time is up just yet" he said. His words brought a smile to my face and hope, I sat my phone down in the center console and turned the key in the ignition, turning out of my spot I head down the windy drive onto the main road heading back to my house, never hearing a reply back that night.

So I was planning on making this chapter like oooober long, but with how the words flowed out I figured I'd lead it into the next chapter that will be the oober long one lol, this was more of a way for you to see how everyone else felt and dealt with the situation as it unfolded.

REVIEW!
