So, I was actually going to have had Austin kiss Cassidy, but like I fear for my life so here we go lol. They were gonna get back together anyway, and my intention was never to make Ally do anything with Gavin so I suppose it's not too much of a change. ) Oh and there's a little bit of sexy time in this, so yeah. Also for the song in this please refer to "Sad Song" by We The Kings. The version off the alum "Stripped" is the best ;)
"Austin, you're here early." Dez smiled.
"Yeah, where is she?" Austin asked.
"Katie, she's still asleep."
"No, Ally."
"Ally? She isn't here…" Dez said. "What have you done now." He sighed.
"Nothing! For once I haven't done anything, she just got the wrong idea."
"Come in." Dez said. "Explain."
"I went to that stupid event thing Jimmy set up and you remember Cassidy?" Austin asked as he sat down on the couch.
"That girl he slept with?"
"I didn't sleep with her." Austin protested and Dez just looked at him. "Okay maybe I did but it was a one time thing. I was on a break from Piper and it was years ago."
"Okay, so what about her?" Dez asked.
"She showed up and asked for a job, so I said yes, and then she just started coming on to me."
"Right…. and?"
"Well… I maybe had a few drinks." Austin sighed.
"Austin!" Dez looked annoyed. "Did you cheat on Ally?"
"No of course not! But she thinks I did." He looked down. "I mean.. I wasn't feeling good at all. I had too much to drink, I felt like I was about to pass out so she offered me a ride home. I took my tie off and I guess I must have left it in her car. Look the point is Ally thinks I've done something I haven't and now I have no idea where she is."
"Morning." Gavin said setting down a cup of coffee on the bedside table. "I know I probably shouldn't have been snooping around but amongst the fifty missed calls from Austin you have two from Carrie." He said handing Ally her phone.
"I forgot about them. Her and Elliot are probably already here." Ally sighed as she sat up in the bed.
"Did you have a good sleep?" He asked.
"I'm not sure I really slept.." She shrugged. "Sorry for making you sleep on the couch."
"It's cool, I've slept in worse places." He smiled. "Ally, why did you come here.. to me."
"I honestly don't know.. I knew I couldn't go to Dez's, he'd just take Austin's side and I know no one else here.." She looked down.
"I just figured you didn't like me.. at all."
"You aren't my favorite person in the world, but we know each other pretty well I guess."
"Ally, can I be honest?" He asked taking a seat on the edge of the bed.
"Okay?"
"I don't exactly like Austin, you know that, but I really don't think he is capable of cheating on you. The way he talks about you, the way he looks at you. He just doesn't seem like that type person. I really think you should talk to him. Hear him out, you know?"
"I don't know why I ran out like that." She sighed. "I just assumed the worst of it.."
"It's because you love him Ally. Maybe more than you know." Gavin said. "Look if he did cheat on you then he's a douche, but if he didn't then he's probably somewhere beating himself up about it right now. You gotta ask yourself, do you really trust him. And if so, you gotta talk to him." Gavin shrugged.
"I do trust him.."
"Then you have nothing to worry about. He's a good guy."
"Did you just call him a good guy?" Ally raised an eyebrow.
"You know what it's something about Christmas that just makes me all happy and shit. Never tell him I said that." He laughed.
"Thank you." Ally smiled.
"Don't mention it. Now, you should probably go before I lose my Christmas spirit and start talking shit about him." Gavin laughed.
"What if she doesn't believe me?"
"She will." Dez reassured him.
"Then why did she run off like that?" Austin asked.
"I don't know, maybe she was just upset at the thought of it."
"She was obviously upset at the thought of it."
"Well I don't know do I?" Dez said.
"Sorry." Austin mumbled.
"Have you tried calling her?"
"Yes, like a million times. She won't answer. Oh fuck, I just remembered Carrie and Elliott are gonna be here today." Austin jumped up. "I better go back to the house."
"She'll come around Austin. Just don't worry." Dez said. "I'll keep Katie, just call me when something happens."
"Yeah.. thanks." Austin said.
"ALLY! Where are you! We've been standing outside this house for like an hour. I think the neighbour thinks we're trying to break in! Just call me back as soon as you get this." Carrie sighed and hung up. "I wonder where they are." She said.
"Maybe they forgot we were coming?" Elliot suggest.
"Elliot I literally spoke to her last night and she was over the moon about it."
"Over the moon." Elliot laughed. "Get it cause Austin's name is Moon." He continued to laugh.
"Yes… I get it." Carrie shook her head.
"Just trying to lighten the mood." Elliot held his hands up.
"Austin thank god." Carrie said as she spotted Austin walking up the driveway. "We have been here ages! Ally wont answer her phone, where is she?"
"I wish I knew." Austin sighed.
"What's happened?" Elliot asked.
"I'll explain inside." Austin said opening the door.
"You two can just never get a break." Elliot said.
"I know." Austin shook his head. "She won't answer me."
"She'll come back." Carrie said. "She probably just had to clear her head."
"I hope so." Austin chewed on his nails. His attention was drawn to the door opening. "Ally." He jumped up.
"Hi.." She said looking at everyone.
"Thank god you are here!" Carrie expressed as she ran over and gave Ally a hug.
"We missed you." Elliot smiled joining in on the hug leaving Austin standing in the middle of the room.
"I missed you guys too." Ally sighed into the embrace.
"We'll leave you two alone for a little while." Elliot suggested.
"Yeah, Elliot has some friends he wants to go see anyway. Play nice." Carrie smiled and lead her boyfriend outside.
"Ally.." Austin sighed. "I swear to you I didn't do anything with her.." He stepped towards her and took her hands. "I could never do something like that to you."
"I know.. I'm sorry I reacted like that.. My mind was just all over the place, I panicked."
"Where did you go?" He asked.
"To Gavins.." Ally looked down. "Don't get mad.. we just talked, he let me stay for the night.."
"I don't even care." Austin admitted. "I'm just glad that you are here.."
"Austin I'm really sorry."
"Don't be. It's my fault, I shouldn't have even allowed myself to get into that situation. She only gave me a ride home because I was spewing up all over the sidewalk." Austin said. "I never had any intention to ever do anything with her. I love you Ally, and the thought of even touching someone else like that makes me sick.." He had only just finished his sentence when Ally lunged forwards and connected their lips.
"I'm sorry I ever doubted you." She said in between kisses.
"I'm sorry I ever made you doubt me." He replied as he picked her up. Her legs automatically wrapped around his waist. He began to walk backwards towards the stairs but she stopped him. "No time." She managed to get out. Austin wasn't going to complain.
"Couch?" He asked.
"People sit there." She said.
"Counter?"
"I cook there."
"Wall?"
"That will do."
"Good." Austin said pushing her up against the wall. His hands managed to undo his own belt. "I never wanna do this with anyone else but you. I'm yours." He smiled into the kiss.
"I love you." Ally said through shaky breaths. She wrapped her arms around his neck and he moved her underwear to the side and pushed himself into her.
"I fucking love you so much." He said burying his face into her neck.
"So… what did you and Gavin talk about?" Austin asked.
"Nothing really… I kind of get the feeling he is trying to be nice now."
"Really?"
"Yeah. I mean, he left me alone for the whole night and when we did talk he was actually being nice about you." She shrugged.
"Why him though? Why not Dez and Trish?" Austin asked.
"Because as much as I love them they would probably have taken your side.. and at that point I really was worried you had done something. I just got scared, and I knew Katie would be there and I'd have to face her." Ally sighed. "I just didn't want to go through that… you aren't mad are you?" She asked.
"No. I'm not mad.. I mean, Gavin really did cancel my contract, so he was true to his word. Maybe he's actually learned his lesson."
"Maybe."
"I'm just glad we're okay.. Cassidy is just an old friend who got the wrong idea."
"I know, it's alright. Can we just not talk about it now." Ally asked.
"Of course." Austin said putting his arm around her. "I think I gave her a job last night."
"That isn't going to be awkward at all." Ally said.
"It's okay, she can be Jimmy's personal assistant or something. Which bring me to a question for you."
"I am not going to be your personal assistant."
"I wasn't going to ask that." He laughed. "Jimmy thinks it would be a great idea to have a new fresh face as an act, and I have someone in mind."
"Who?" Ally asked.
"You." He smiled.
"You can't be serious Austin.. me? A singer. No." She laughed.
"I am serious Ally. I've heard you sing before.. You are really good."
"I'm not."
"Ally, if anyone knows talent it's me. You can read music right?" He asked standing up.
"Yes.."
"Okay, take a look at this." He said heading over to the piano and picking up a sheet. "I've been working on it for a while… just give it a try? Please." He said handing it to her.
"Austin I don't know."
"No one else is here. Just me and you. So, just give a shot?"
"Okay.. I guess." She shrugged looking at the paper.
"Great." He smiled and sat at the piano and began playing a melody.
"You and I, we're like fireworks and symphonies exploding in the sky. With you, I'm alive. Like all the missing pieces of my heart they finally collide." Ally watched him in awe and he got lost in the song. "So stop time right here in the moonlight, cause I don't ever wanna close my eyes." He looked at her and briefly smiled. "Without you I feel broke like I'm half of a whole, without you I've got no hand to hold." He shrugged. "Without you I feel torn like a sail in a storm, without you, I'm just a sad song." She looked down at the paper and took a deep breath. She could feel his eyes watching her every move.
"With you, I fall, it's like I'm leaving all my past and silhouettes upon the wall."
"Yeah!" Austin exclaimed smiling at her.
"With you I'm a beautiful mess, it's like we're standing hand and hand with all our fears upon the edge.."
"You're doing it." He said looking rather proud. "So stop time right here in the moonlight, cause I don't ever wanna close my eyes." He took the lead as they sang in harmony. "You're the perfect melody, the only harmony I wanna hear. You're my favorite part of me, with you standing next to me I've got nothing to fear." She sat down beside him on the piano stool and began playing along with him. "Without you I feel broke, like I'm half of a whole, without you I've got no hand to hold.. without you I feel torn like a sail in a storm, without you, I'm just a sad song." He looked at her with love in his eyes. "I'm just a sad song.." As he played the final note he leaned in a kissed her. They heard a clap coming from behind.
"Dez." Austin said turning around to see not only his friend, but his daughter and Carrie and Elliot as well. "How long have you been standing there?"
"Pretty much the whole time." Dez shrugged.
"Wait how did you get in?"
"The front door, like most people. We heard you guys singing so we just snuck in behind you."
"Ally, that was really good." Elliot said. "I had no idea you could sing as well as that." At this point Ally was completely red with embarrassment.
"I take it you two are good now?" Carrie laughed.
"Yeah." Ally nodded. "We're good." She smiled at Austin who smiled back.
