A/N: New chapter, let's get on with it! :) Enjoy.

DISCLAIMER:I do not own Austin & Ally, nor am I associated wih Disney in any way. None of the characters except Ian and Tenley and other occasional drop-ins belong to me. I also do not own "Already Gone" by Sugarland, nor am I associated with Sugarland.

Ally...

Trish greets me at the door, and I can hear the television running in the living room where I assume Trent must be.

"How are you?" She asks, taking my suitcase for me. I shrug. My eyes are bloodshot from crying and my shoulders are drooping, I'm sure I look terrible. She ushers me inside to the kitchen where she makes us coffee. I'm grateful, considering I haven't had any sleep at all.

"So, what... What happened?" She asks me carefully.

I shrug and sigh. "We just had a fight, and he basically told me his career was more important than me."

She frowns. "Oh, Ally, I'm sure he didn't mean it."

"I wouldn't be so sure." I muttered.

"Look, I know you're upset Ally, and I'm really sorry about what happened, but... You can't let something like this ruin your relationship. Austin needs you and you need him, if that weren't true, I don't think you two would have found each other again after all those years."

I shrug. "You're probably right. Maybe we just need time to cool off. He's going to be on his way to the tour bus soon, though."

She frowns. "Were you planning on going with him?"

I nod.

"I suppose you'll miss the first leg of the tour, then." She sighs.

I finish my coffee and go to put the mug in the sink. "I'm going to catch up on some sleep, if you don't mind." I yawn.

She waves me off with her hand. "Of course bot, you know where the guest room is."

I drag my bag into the guest bedroom, memories flooding my brain from the first night Austin and I spent together in ten ears, not too long ago. I remember how perfect that was. As I lay down and close my eyes, I can almost relive the memory and feel him next to me, breathe in his scent... I fall into a deep sleep.

Austin...

I board the bus wearily; Ally still hasn't shown up or even called as I had guessed that she would have, and now I have no choice but to leave without her. I hope she's happy.

I feel like a douchebag. I guess I kind of am. Maybe I should call her first, because I'm positive that if she were going to call me and come home she would have done it by now. My pride just won't let me do it, though. The bus slides into motion, and I crawl into my small sleeping compartment. This was certainly going to be a lonely tour without Ally, but there's not doubt in my mind that we would be reunited by the time the first leg was over. This was sure to calm down eventually.

Wasn't it?

A/N: I'm sorry the chapter is short, but I think it was a good place to stop. Please don't forget to review, favorite, and follow! :)
