Disclaimer: I don't own Austin and Ally or some of the characters used in this story.
It was a sunny, yet windy summer's afternoon on June 5th, 2014, and I was over at Trent's house with Keira.
It had been five months since he left. After resigning as the CEO of Strattmon Inc. he had disapeared, and nobody, not even the people most closest to him knew where he went. His disapearance had been the talk of the whole world since January and nobody but me knew why he truly quit his role as the biggest CEO in the world. He was tired, simply fed up with it all, and I guess his only decision was to run away, but did he have to leave me behind like this?. Everybody from his Parents, and specialised agents and bodyguards had been searching for him non-stpp but they had no luck in finding where he was. It was as if the whole world had erupted into a fiery and viscious earthquake, and can only be stopped by his return.
Every night I laid in my bed thinking about nothing but him and the last kiss we shared before I looked into his eyes for the last time. I wanted to see him, to talk to him, to simply touch him and feel him close to me, but I couldn't. No matter how much I dreamed of him to come back to me, I knew that it would take some time before I ever see him again, or if I ever see him again...
I stared over at the TV as the news reporters continued to speak about the disapearance of Austin.
'It is been reported that Mike Moon had sent a group of FBI agents in search for his son; Austin Moon, who not only resigned as CEO of Strattmon Inc. but has been missing for the past five months. No one has seen or heard from Austin Moon since then, and there has been some speculations whether he is alive or not'.
As the last words rolled out her mouth, a hard lump immediately filled my throat as a look of pure horror quickly flashed through my face. There was no way that Austin could be dead, there was just no way. If only I knew where he really was. Why?... why did he have to leave me all alone with a pain and tortured heart. I had cried non-stop ever since he left, and my tears were now empty and dried up, besides no matter how much I cried and mourned each night, I knew it wouldn't make him come back.
Wherever he was, I wondered if he still thought about me like I thought about him, and I wondered if he still loved me like I loved him.
As Austin's last press conference flashed up on TV, I quickly picked up the remote and switched it off before breathing in and out. I desperately wanted to forget about that moment, and it didn't help that it would constanly be played on TV and outside billboards over and over. I ran my fingers through my hair that I had cut short several weeks ago, before turning to look across from Trent and Keira. Trent placed his arm above the sofa gazing down at Keria as she went through his photo album whilst laughing to herself. It was the day that Keira was going to Paris to work for a popular french designer and Trent was feeling uneasy about it all.
"You know you were kinda cute when you were short and had glasses and braces" Keira uttered before smiling up at him.
Trent clenched his jaw and peered down at her intensely. "I never thought I would hear you say that" he said in a low whisper as his eyes slowly flickered down to her lips. Keira stared up into his eyes deeply for several more seconds before quickly looking back down at the photo album. Although Trent and Alexis were still dating, I could tell that Trent had now developed big feelings for Keira, even though he hadn't told me yet. After all, they had been spending a seemingly amount of time together ever since.
"When is your flight?" He asked placing his arm above her head.
"7:30 tonight... are you gonna come see me off, we're not gonna see each other again for a year or two you know" she smiled whilst shifting closer to him. "I uh... I'll be at work. So I can't" he muttered and her smile slowly faded away.
"Oh..." Keira murmured before forcing a smile back on her face. "Well you could always come to Paris and visit if you want, doesn't your aunt Vivian live there?" She asked and he nodded before sighing to himself. Seven years ago, when Trent and I had started High school as Freshmens, Keira was a Junior, and I remember how she would laugh at him and mock him whenever she got the chance. Who would have ever thought that several years later, the two people that hated each other the most, would grow to fall in love. It certainly reminded me of how Austin and I had first started out with nothing but hatred for one another.
They sat in silence for 5-10 more minutes till Keira slowly got up from besides him. "I forgot that its your 21st birthday next week... I won't be here, so pick up when I call you okay" she spoke teary-eyed. Trent stared up at her for a brief moment. As he got up from the sofa, she wasted no time quickly getting up on her tip-toes and throwing her arms around him, hugging him tightly. Trent hugged her back tightly before picking her up from the floor and spinning her around.
I slowly got up from the sofa smiling a small smile over at them as they continued to hug for a while. It was as if neither of them wanted to let go at any minute.
After several more seconds, they finally found the strength to pull away from each other. I watched as they pressed their foreheads against each other, while staring into the other's eyes. "I have to go now... I have to finish packing" she laughed before quickly wiping away the tear that rolled from her eye.
"I guess I'll see you later then... take care of yourself in Paris and don't do anything stupid" he uttered smiling a small smile. The two slowly strolled over towards the front door, before stopping to engulf in a tight hug once more.
"G-Good luck with Alexis, I guess" Keira whispered before slowly releasing her hand from his. She stared up at him once more and quivered her lips, before running out the door to avoid breaking down in front of him.
I looked back at the door before turning my attention back to Trent as he ran hid hands down his face in frustration. I placed my handbag to the side before walking up to him and pulling him into a hug. "Are you sure that you're gonna be okay letting her go without telling her how you feel?" I asked pulling away to cup his cheeks. "W-What are you talking about?" He asked briefly. "I only have feelings for Alexis, she's my girlfriend Ally" he muttered before turning to gaze out the window at Keira.
I scoffed at his comment before picking up my handbag and swinging it around my shoulders. "Its now 2 0 clock, Keira's flight leaves in about 5 hours" I uttered before looking back at her. "I'll call you later okay" I said smiling back at him.
"Have y'all heard anything from Austin yet? Damn who knows where he is" Trent sighed whilst folding his arms.
I lowered my arms and clutched onto my handbag before sighing to myself. "His Parents and bodyguards have searched the whole of the states and some other countries too, nobody's found anything yet..." I trailed off whilst clenching my fists. "Its been five months... w-what am I gonna do if he's really dead or if he's never gonna come back,Trent?" I exclaimed, covering my face with my hand.
Trent pulled me closer for another hug before rubbing my back for comfort. "I was a little taken back when you told me everything that happened with you both" he said quietly. "I know he's hurt you a lot but don't give up Ally, I've watched you date guys since High school but you've never loved any of them like you do Austin... and please end things with that Michael dude already, you don't have to keep giving him a chance just because he treats you nice, and besides just because he got a British accent don't make him all that anyway" Trent hissed before placing a kiss on my forehead.
"Text me when you and Keira get home okay" he said looking back at her and I nodded my head and gave him one last hug before turning to walk out the door to Keira.
I looked over at her as she stared at Trent in the window as he sat down on his sofa before hanging his head low. "I love you..." she whispered quietly gazing directlly at him as tears rolled down her eyes. I strolled over to her and rubbed her back gently before placing her head down on my shoulder.
"Ally... when I leave today... can you tell Trent that I'm sorry for everything I've ever done to him, a-and that I love-
"No Keira" I sighed quickly cutting her off. "I think you should tell him that yourself because it won't mean anything coming from me" I said as she slowly lifted her head up from my shoulder. I went to speak up again but was quickly cut off by my phone ringing in my handbag. I quickly dived my hand inside and brought the phone out to see that it was Isabella.
"Hey Isabella, has there been any news on Austin?" I answered before turning my back to Keira.
"Afternoon Ally, and I'm afraid Mr Mon hasn't been found yet" she replied causing me to slowly rub my forehead in frustration. "His mother, Alexis, and Mr Worthy are over at Mr Moon's mansion right now. Tgere's some tension with Mimi and Alexis so I was wondering if you could come ove, if you're not busy at allr" she spoke.
I clutched onto the phone and turned back to Keira as she continued to stare inside at Trent. "Um yeah sure I'll be there soon" I said before hanging up the phone.
Keira placed her hand on the window as Trent slowly lifted his head up to look at her. She pushed her hair out of her face and sighed to herself before turning her attention to me. "Was that Austin's maid?" She asked and I briefly nodded before crossing my arms and lowering my head. "Its okay go, I know how much you miss him Ally, Trent told me all about you two. I never imagined my little sister to have a thing with Austin Moon, remember how I use to have posters of him on my wall and you would call me obsessed?" She stated causing me to chuckle lightly.
"I remember... I have to go now, but I'll be back later to help you and mom finishing packing tonight" I uttered before placing a kiss on her cheek and walking off. As I walked further down the street I slowly turn my head back around to see Trent opening the door for her to step back inside. I stared back at them before turning my head around and clutching onto my handbag. I looked down at a newspaper placed on a bench to see Austin on the cover with the headline. 'Moon, dead or alive?'. My heart sunk as I quickly shifted my eyes away before carrying on walking.
I knew I had to remain strong and have faith because of the people breaking down around me, but for once in my life I didn't want to. I was tired of acting tough and brave, not knowing if I would ever truly see him again.
An hour later, I arrived at Austin's mansion.
His head bodyguard James quickly opened the gate for me as some paparazzi's standing outside snapped some pictures. I sighed a small sigh before looking around the compound to see several of Austin's bodyguards stood in different places guarding the place. Although it was their job to keep a straight face at all times, I could tell that they truly missed him more than anything.
"Hey James" I said waving at him and he placed his arms behind his back before nodding his head at me. "How's everything been so far?" I asked looking up at him.
He looked around before taking of his shades and ear piece and turning his head to look down at me. "God day Miss Dawson, and things haven't been so good ever since Mr Moon's absence" he explained and I quickly scrunched up my face signalling for him to go on. "His Parents; Mike and Mimi had threatened to fire all of us by next year if Mr Moon doesn't return, but even if he fails to return we promised to work for him and protect him until the day we die" he stated leaving me a little speechless as the bodyguard besides him; Billy, nodded his head before taking of his shades.
"Ever since Mr Moon left the company has been doing poorly with his Father as the CEO again, they've lost over $30 billion without Mr Moon's leadership... we'll do anything to find him" said Billy as I looked over at him gasping in shock. I watched as James, Billy, along with the other bodyguards lowered their heads almost in defeat with a distress look evident on their faces.
I took a deep breath and clenched my fists before going over to lift their heads up. "Guys c'mon" I said forcing a brave smile on my face. "James, Austin was hard on you a lot, that's only because he saw a lot of potential in you which is why he made you his head bodyguard after Duncan. Billy you may have only been working for him for a year now but please don't give up, Austin will come back so don't give up hope, even if his stupid Parents fire you" I uttered boldly before rubbing James's shoulder.
"You're truly an extraordinary woman, Miss Dawson" James smiled as the others nodded their heads in agreement.
I smiled up at them before pushing a strand of hair behind my ears. "Thank you, but please just call me Ally" I spoke before turning around. As I walked over to the front door, my smile that I had plastered on to get them not to give up hope had slowly faded away. It amazed me how I can easily fake such a feeling at a time like that.
I pressed my lips together before clicking the door bell. Several seconds later, the door quickly opened, revealing Isabella, aho greeted me with a warm smile.
I gave her a quick hug before stepping inside the mansion to see Alexis, Mimi and Dez sitting inside Austin's living room. I stopped and watched as Alexis crossed her arms while glaring over at her mother who blew on a cigar elegantly whilst two bodyguards stood behind her. I glanced over at Dez as he took a seat besides Mimi before placing his hand on his head frustratingly. You could almost sense the high tension in the room.
Alexis rolled her eyes and removed her white fur coat before getting up to walk over to her mother. Before she could get closer to her, Mimi quickly raised her finger up and the two bodyguarda standing besides her quickly rushed over to block Alexis.
"You know the rule darling, don't come too close" Mimi laughed before slowly blowing her cigar smoke in the air as I watched in disgust. Was this what an increasingly amount of wealth and power had come to?!
Alexis gaped down at her in pure disgust before speaking up. "You witch!" She spoke coldly as Mjmi chuckled lightlt whilst crossing her legs. "Its all you and Dad's fault! You two are the reason why Austin ran away and hasn't returned since. Now the company's losing Billions without him, and you can't accept the fact that your Husband would never measure up to my Brother!" She yelled as the room filled with silence for several seconds.
Mimi's slowly removed the cigar from her lips as her smirk quickly faded away. "You know about business Alexis, and don'g you dare blame us about Austin's absence. We can and will continue running the company with or without Austin-
"Actually Mrs Moon" Dez sighed quickly cutting her off. "We both know that your Husband is doing a shitty job, and that nobody can run that company better than you're son, We need him! But rather than discussing business all the time why don't you start thinking about if you're son's really okay wherever he is. The CIA and FBI and everyone else has searched everywhere and we can't find a damn trace of him!" He hissed raising his voice a little.
"How dare you speak to me kike that Dez, are you forgetting who you are in the prescence of?!" Mimi snapped as he lowered his head before letting out a deep sigh.
Alexis ran her fingers through her platinum blonde hair before looking over at me as a look of relief quickly flashed through her face. "Ally!" She grinned berore rushing over and pulling me into a hug. I quickly hugged back before looking over at Mimi as she gazed over at me bewildered.
"What is that girl doing here? She doesn't work for Austin anymore. Isabella how can you allow her into this mansion, everything in here is fine luxury and worth more than she can ever imagine, are you aware that she could go tell people of what she heard, or worse steal something!" Mimi hissed as the whole room quickly filled with silence yet again. I looked over at Dez as he sighed before rubbing her eyes, before looking back at Alexis and Isabella as they horrifyingly glared over at Mimi.
Isabella opened her mouth to speak up but I quickly waved my hand in her face cutting her off. "Its okay Isabella" I smiled taking her hand and squeezing it before going to walk over to Mimi, making sure to bot come to close to her.
"Um, Mrs Moon..." I cleared my throat before scratching the back of my head. "I'm really sorry for barging in here, I'm aware that I don't work for your son anymore but I'd like you to ask you for a favour" I said as politely as I possibly can before biting my tongue. I hated having to keep calm to a terrible and greedy woman like her.
"And what might that be?" She questioned, blowing her cigar smoke over in my direction.
"I know that Aus- I-I mean Mr Moon has been missing for the past 5 months now, byt please, don't release his bodyguards from their jobs" I pleaded before joining my hands together. "They have a great loyalty to Me Moon, which is why they haven't quit yet. You see you and them have something in common, because they wanna find Austin just as much as you-
"Don't ever compare me to people who are below me, Ally" she said before clicking her fingers, causing her two bodyguards to quickly move out the way. I clenched my fists tightly as she slowly stood up from the sofa before looking down at me closely.
"Mrs Moon we all do respect, I-
"This is the last time I see you step foot inside this mansion, don't get carried just because my son chose you to be his assistant for over a year. This life just isn't meant for some people and you're one of them" she spoke sternly and coldly before putting on her shades and strolling out the door with her bodyguards following behind.
"Isabella, next time do your job properly, or I'll make sure you're fired, do you hear-
"I don't work for you Mimi, I work for you son and only he can decide whether I'm fired or not" Isabella hissed quickly cutting her off. Mimi gaped down at her with shock before groaning under her breath snd stroning out the front door.
"You can't forbid Ally to do anything Mimi!" Alexis groaned loudly before storming over to Austin's back garden and sitting besides his pool. I watched as she hung her head low, before looking back at Isabella. "I'm very sorry about that Ally, allow me to go make you a little snack you look a little hungry" she smiled grasping ny cheeks. I smiled back at her as she turned to walk towards the kitchen, before looking back at Dez. Although I was incredibly furious at how Mimi had spoken to me, it wasn't my place to let out the anger, so I had to remain calm, just like I've done for so many years.
"You seem quite unaffected at what just happened" said Dez as I slowly took a seat besides him.
"I guess its better if I look like I'm not bothered by it right, she is one of the most powerful women in the world" I sighed before placing my handbag to the side. "By the way, how's Trish and Ava doing?" I asked smiling up at him. Ava was Trish and Dez's one month year old Daughter.
Dez grabbed the bottle of red wine from the side and poured it in a glass before offering it to me. "Trish is staying at home to look after her most of the time, but I'm rarely ever home because of work. Since the company lost a lot of money recently, Mike has just been making everybody's life in the company miserable" he explained before rubbing his eyes yet again.
I stared down at my red wine for a brief moment before looking back up to look at a large picture of Austin hanging from the wall. "I guess Austin doesn't wanna be found right now huh? I hope that wherever he is that he's okay... I just want him to be okay" I muttered quietly as my fingers began to tremble.
"I do too Ally... I'm gonna let you in on a little secret" Dez uttered as I quickly turned my head to face him. "The Day before Austin announced his resignation, he asked me to watch over you... I thought it was because your contract for him was ending, I didn't expect it to be because he was quitting and running away" Dez exclaimed starting to tear up a little. "He was dealing with so much with the press and his Parents but he didn't show it whenever I was around him... he was going through so much pain and stress and I didn't notice it sooner to try and help him" he said whilst choking up on his words.
I rubbed his shoulders comfortingly before looking over at Alexis as she slowly started to make her way back inside. I was about to speak up again till my phone began to ring inside my handbag and I quickly brought it out to see that it was Trent.
"Hey Trent, is everything okay?" I answered placing the wine glass on the table.
"I don't know what's going on with me Ally, when Keira came back inside my house after, we almost kisseed. My head is so fucked right now I don't know what to do" he sighed frustratingly.
I quickly got up from the sofa and swung my handbag back over my shoulders before speaking up. "I'll be there soon Trent, I'm on my way now okay, love you" I said before hanging up the phone and throwing it back inside my pocket.
"Was that Trent, is he okay?" Alexis asked quickly walking over to me with a worried expression evident on her face. "Yeah, he's not feeling too well right now so I'm just gonna go back to see his house and see if he's okay" I replied looking up at her.
"Oh, since he's not feeling well I'm coming too" she spoke before taking my hand and leading me over to rhe front door.
"Um Alexis I don't think-
"We can take my car don't worry" she said quickly cutting me off. I sighed quietly to myself before turning around to wave goodbye to Dez as Alexis quickly pulled me out the front door.
A while later Alexis and I arrived at Trent's house.
She removed her hand of the steering wheel and quickly put on her headscarf and shades before stepping out the car with me. As a boy riding a skate board quickly rode by, she quickly lowered her head and turned around and I chuckled to myself before walking over to the front door. I looked back at her before knocking on the front door and peering inside the window.
"Its open Alls!" I hear Trent yell from inside and I took a deep breath before slowly walking in with Alexis.
As I shut the door behind us, Alexis pressed her back against it smiling over at Trent from behindthe corner from where he couldn't see her, as I slowly made my way to sit besides him on the sofa.
He lowered his head and ran his hands down his face before speaking up. "I almost kissed her Alls, and I wanted it to happen too, but she started crying and left" he explained briefly. I quickly looked back at Alexis as her smile began to slowly disapear from her face.
"Um Trent, Alexis is-
"I've always found Keira annoying and selfish, but I woke up this morning and I realised that I didn't want her to go anywhere. I don't know why I feel like this about her but its not fair on-" he stopped mid sentence before looking up as Alexis slowly walked into the living room, with her heels clicking on the floor from each step. His eyes slowly widened as he got up from the sofa to face her. I closed my eyes and sighed as I watched the hurt look plaster all across Alexis's face, as Trent gazed down at her with regret.
"Not fair on me?" She muttered quietly finishing of his sentence as he hung his head low in shame.
I watched as a tear slowly rolled down her eyes, but she quickly wiped it away before forcing a smile onto her face. "I should've known" she scoffed smiling up at him. "You've been spending all your time with her ever since and hardly have anytime for me anymore. Yes you find her incredibly annoyimg and selfish but can't you see that you're already in love with her... you've always been" she said as her lips quivered, and I could tell she was trying her hardest not to break down in front of him.
Trent took a step closer to her going to take her hand but before he could she quickly pulled it back. "Alexis I... I'm so sorry, I never meant to hurt you" he said in a low whisper as his eyes began to slowly water.
"When I first met you almost two years ago I fell in love with you Trent, I never ever believed in love and first sight, but when I saw you I knew what I felt, and after we started spending time together and you asked me to be your girlfriend, I realised that I never wanted to lose you either" she spoke while clutching onto her expensive handbag.
"I don't regret falling for you too and spending time with you Alexis... look if you would just sit down and we can talk about all this and-
"I know you don't regret it, but I can't stay for much longer, because... I'm breaking up with you" she said forcing a smile back onto her face and the room quickly filled with silence for a short while. The only thing you could hear was the sound of the clock ticking, as Alexis surprising words left an echo in the room.
I watched as she took a step closer to him and placed her hand on his cheek before staring up into his eyes. "Although Keira is leaving for Paris today she still needs you, more than I do" she whispered as a tear slowly rolled down her eyes. "Goodbye Trent..." she exclaimed placing one last kiss on his lips before turning around to walk towards the front door.
I looked up at Trent as he gazed back at Alexis in distraught before getting up from the sofa to run over to her before she could walk out the front door.
"Alexis, wait" I called placing my hand on her shoulder.
She slowly turned around to face me as her mascara streamed her cheeks in pure agony whilst she sobbed silently. I had never seen her look so broken until then. "I-I just maybe thought that he would still chose me again and tell me that he didn't wanna break up" she mourned before covering her face with her hands. "I have to go Ally, I-I'll call you later" she sniffed before running out the front door.
I looked out the window as she ran over to her car before quickly getting inside and driving away. I let out a sigh for what seemed to be the millionth time today before turning to walk back inside the living room as Trent sat back on the sofa staring our his window with an unreadable expression. I was about to walk over to him till I heard my phone ring in my handbag and I quickly pulled it out to see that it was Michael.
"Hey, Michael" I answered whilst gazing over at Trent.
"Hey beautiful, where are you now?" He asked briefly.
"I'm over at Trent's house now, is everything okay?" I asked, slowly making my way over to him. "Everything's fine love, I just need to tell you something, can you meet me at the cafe we always go to, I'm driving there now" he said in a hopeful tone.
I sat down besides Trent and places my hand on his shoulder before speaking up. "Actually Michael Trent isn't feeling too well right now so I can't-
"Its okay Alls, you can go meet your boyfriend or whatever, I'll be okay and plus I have a lot to think about" he sighed before looking over at his clock. "Are you sure you'll be okay, you know I hate leaving you at a time like this" I muttered quietly before wrapping my arms around him and he briefly nodded.
I sighed and placed the phone back on my ear before speaking up. "I guess I'll see you there soon Michael" I smiled before glancing down at my jeans. "Great, I'll see you then" he said beforw hanging up the phone.
He was so gracious and nice to me and treated me like how I always wanted to be treated which is why I stuck with him all that time. I believed that I would eventually fall in love with him and forget all about Austin, but I couldn't have been more wrong.
A short while later, I arrived across at the cafe where Michael and I spent most of our time at.
I slipped my hands inside my pockets and gazed at him from across the street as he leaned back on his chair whilst going through his phone. I looked down at the ground before looking up at the big New York city billboard to see the video of Austin's resignation in January. As the cold wind blew past me, warm tears began to fill my eyes as I gaped up at him. I haven't seen him in so long, it felt as if I was slowly losing it each day, and the worse part of all this was that he never even told me goodbye, but instead gave me one last kiss.
I wiped away the tear that quickly flew down my pale and cold cheek as I started to remember the feeling of his hands when he touched me and the feeling of his lips when he kissed me. My fling with him seemed like nothing at first, and the nature of our relationship was something that hurt me and caused me grief and pain, but if I could go back to the time I would. Even though we weren't in a proper relationship, I still laid on his arms every night and woke up the next morning to see him staring back at me, our relationship started of solely based on sex but it grew into so much more as we told each other things we've never told anybody before, and in the end never did I expect him to truly feel the same way as I do for him.
Oh how I wished I could see him again, even if was just once.
I took one last breath before quickly crossing the street and running over to the cafe. I opened the doors noticing that there was just Michael and two other girls sited inside, before walking over to him. As I took a seat across from him, he pushed his blonde hair back before flashing me a warm smile and I smiled back before placing my hand on the table.
"You're late" he chuckled before stretching his hand across the table and taking my hands into his.
"Sorry, you know how traffic is" I said as he gently rubbed my palm whilst gazing deeply at me. He lowered his head and smiled about to speak up but was quickly interrupted by a loud groan coming from one of the girls on the table in front of us.
"Elle what is it?" The other girl asked before flicking her blonde hair back and I slowly let go of Michael's hand before scratching the back of my head.
"Someone on Facebook posted a picture of Austin Moon in Florida but turns out its just someone who looks like him, I'm so upset, Mia" Elle hissed loudly before throwing her phone back inside her bag. "My future husband's been missing for five months and can't even find where he is. What a joke" she uttered before putting on her sunglasses and getting up from his seat.
"Uh tell me about it, it shouldn't be that hard to find someone as famous as him right... unless he's dead or something" Mia spoke causing me to instantlt freeze in my seat. The more I heard about that speculation, the more terrified I became.
They turned to walk out the cafe but stopped as their eyes immediately landed on me. "Hey I recognise you... weren't you Austin Moon's assistant Ally Dawson? I know she has long hair but you look kinda familiar to her" Elle questioned highlighting my now short hair. I stared up at them about to speak up till Michael quickly cleared his throat cutting me off. "I'm afraid you have her mistaken, my girlfriend here has never been an assistant to anyone before" he said sternly before turning back to face me.
"She looks a lot like her" Mia shrugged over at Elle, and with that the two girls quickly strolled out the cafe.
I looked back at them before turning my attention back to Michael. "Why did you lie to them?" I asked gazing across at him.
"Look Ally, everyday I try to forgot that you ever worked for him, I tried to forgot that you once had feelings for him but irs hard for me to because of people like them" he admitted before letting out a deep sigh. I guess he thought that I had forgotten about my feelings for Austin. We stayed in silence for several more seconds till I finally decided to speak up.
"What did you wanna tell me?" I asked changing the subject and a smile quickly appeared back on his face as he placed his hand over mine on the table.
He gazed deeply at me before chuckling lightly to himself and speaking up. "I'm going back to London" he spoke brieflt "I want to get away from a lot of things in New York so I'm going back home and... I want you to come with me" he spoke leaving me a little shocked. "I love you Ally, and I can't imagine ever being apart from you, so I really want you to cone with me... I want us to start a life together too".
My mouth hung low as he slowly got up from his seat and got down on one knee before pulling out a ring from his pocket.
"Marry me, Ally".
I had never been more shocked as I was then. It was as if my mind had become clouded with many different feelings and thoughrs that I found it impossible to speak.
Ooo what do you think Ally will say?. Don't forget to review the chapter and tell me what you thought of:
-Keira saying goodbye to Trent
-Mimi's attitude towards Ally
-Alexis and Trent's break-up
-Michael proposing to Ally.
