Disclaimer: I do not own Austin & Ally.
Ally's POV (per usual)
Okay, here goes. I'm gonna tell them. I took a deep breath and slowly moved from the wall. I sticked my head in front of the glass doors and saw Trish and Piper walking my way. I pulled myself back from the doors and could feel my hands getting clammy. I stayed there against the wall frozen when Trish and Piper walked in.
"Yeah, so I was saying- Ally? What are you doing there?" Trish asked me worried. Piper looked me in confusion while she sipped her drink.
"Uh, I'm totally fine," I faked a laugh. "Don't worry about me, I will just stay here," I said, still stuck to the wall. Awkwardly.
Piper removed her lips from the straw in her drink. "Hm-m. No, there's something you're not telling us," she pointed at me. "I can sense it."
Crap. Well, what now? I opened my mouth to make up a lie, when suddenly Carrie came flying around the corner. I sighed in relief quietly.
"Hey guys! Kira and I found a Jacuzzi! You have to see it," she exclaimed, already starting to pull Trish and Piper with her. "Ally, you have to come too!"
I chuckled nervously. "You know what, I will meet you guys later." Carrie pouted at me, but finally shrugged.
"Whatever, don't come too late!" she warned me with a serious look and pulled Piper and Trish with her, from whom I received a concerned frown.
I waved at them until they disappeared around the corner. I then slid down the wall and started to panic. What was I supposed to do? I especially told Trish to not worry about a thing. I also really believed that guy was a professional… He told me it was gonna be a three day vacation on THIS ship, not a little three hours… I know I have to tell them soon, but I don't know how.
A little while later, when I finally decided I was ready to tell them, I found myself at the top deck, searching for them. I felt the anxiety build up inside of me and with every step I took, I hoped yet hoped not to find them as soon as possible.
I halted when I saw them in the Jacuzzi. Kira had her shades on and leaned back onto the railing of the Jacuzzi, busy talking to some guys while Trish was grinning at her phone, probably because of Jace. I catched Piper dunking Carrie in the water. I felt my heart slamming against my ribcage as I step for step made my way over to them.
When I arrived at the Jacuzzi after what seemed like forever but were probably just a few seconds, I called their attention.
"Hey, guys," I said, my voice wavering a little. They looked up, even the tan and handsome guys.
"Ally, took you forever," Kira smiled. I managed a brief smile to send her back. Trish spoke up.
"Where have you been?" My best friend asked. I crossed my arms, and leaned my weight on one foot to set off an confident posture. However, it wasn't really working.
"Oh, y'know, just chilling," I replied. Piper looked at me with her eyebrows raised. I tried to avoid her stare.
"Oh, cool! Well, why don't you join us?" Carrie asked with excitement, looking at me with a happy face, waiting for an answer. I bit my lip, trying to hold in the news for some reason that I don't know.
"Yeah, jump in! It'll be fuh—"
"This isn't the yacht we will be staying on for three days, it's actually only three hours and then we'll be on another ship I don't know which one and please don't say "I told you so" cause I swear maybe it will be just nothing and we can still enjoy this vacation- Please don't hurt me," I blurted out in the spur of the moment and held my hands in front of my face and squeezed my eyes shut.
A few moments of silence passed before one of them decided to speak up. I took down my hands cautiously as Trish spoke.
"Woah Ally. I mean, it's a change of plans, and I didn't expect this, but I'm not mad. Hopefully our actual yacht will be just as good as this one. If not, it doesn't matter, I'm used to a little dirt. But who cares if it's less luxe! I came here to enjoy a good time with you guys, not with the interior of a yacht," Trish told me, looking at me with a smile. I let out a breath.
"You're sure you're fine with it?" I looked at her with big eyes. Trish pulled a face.
"Totally! Why wouldn't I be? I mean, yeah, you kind of got yourself into the situation, cause really? Selling leaflets of yacht vacations on the street, who buys that? Especially of a big one like this," she gestured around her. "I'd get you if it was like a tourism trip theme, but c'mon Ally," she nudged me. I laughed, feeling a little embarrassed. Trish was kinda right. I turned to the other girls with a hopeful expression. They looked at me the same way Trish did.
"Same with Trish," Piper said.
"Absolutely." "One hundred percent!" I smiled and hugged them, even though their bodies were wet.
"Thanks girls," I said, feeling a lot better. I then made my promise to come back later and disappeared to find my bag with bikini in it.
Hours later, we were being guided to the front of the ship. We all were waiting patiently for the ship to strand, ate some snacks, fooled around a bit, seeing as we were the only ones waiting. Instead of feeling embarrassed, I was actually quite looking forward to see the other ship. Kira slung her arm around me and offered me an ear bud. I gladly accepted it and I leaned into her side.
It's funny to think that a lot of couples act like this, when me and my friends were doing acts like these ever since we knew each other. It never bothered us or made us feel uncomfortable, being so close with each other. We were literally the best of friends, and if this is how couples act, then I guess we're all each other's boyfriend. It's special, I guess.
Soon, the intercom started speaking. I heard the receptionist's voice, calling out to those who were about to step off the yacht. Other than us, obviously no one would need or want to. The receptionist alarmed us that in two minutes the gangway would open.
Piper carried a bag of chips in her hands as she walked up to Kira and I. "I'm excited to see what the actual yacht looks like," she muttered, her mouth full of food. Kira winced. "Please don't speak while eating, it's disgusting," she quickly added, "No offense." Piper rolled her eyes at neat girl and skipped over to Trish and Carrie.
A red light went on above us and the gangway started to open. I let out a breath as I watched the beach come in vision. We were stranded at another bay, one I did not recognize. The other ship, the one we were actually supposed to get one, was out of sight. Huh.
"Your ship is waiting down the bay," I jumped at the voice of a lady in an uniform, standing close behind me. She stepped out on the gangway and stopped in the middle, facing to the left. She pointed at something in the distance. "Number seven."
"That's our ship?" Trish asked. The woman nodded her head curtly. I stood on my tiptoes, trying to see over the huge ships that were standing in front of our ship. I couldn't get to look past those though, something that was no surprise with my height. We quickly thanked the woman and made our way to the bay, passing the gangway.
As we all curiously walked further on, I couldn't help but get a bad feeling in my stomach. I knew it was probably just anxiety, and that I was worrying about nothing. We walked along the ships, trying to get to number seven as fast as possible.
When we finally reached number seven, I felt my body go rigid. Cause right in front of me, there was this small boat that could fit maximum, let's say about twenty, people. I could practically hear the girls next to me tense up, and I knew this was my doom.
"What the f-" Piper didn't have the chance to finish her cursing, as a middle-aged man appeared in front of the boat. I blinked, having not seen the man stand there before.
"Ah, welcome!" the man grinned and extended his hand out to us, waiting for us to shake it. "My name is Michael Moon, but you can call me Mike, and this is my boat!" We all gaped at him, the words caught in our throat. I felt like running.
[A/N] And that's it for now! I'm ending the chapter here, since I'm kinda stuck on how I want the girls' and Ally's reactions to be exactly. Also, I have to squeeze Austin somewhere in the next chapter, and I'm still not completely sure on how to do that. I know the chapters are a bit short right now, but I promise, once I get this story really going, it's going to include way more dialogue and scenario's between the girls, and also Austin and Ally from then on. I hope you all can guess their personalities a little already. If you don't, Ally is the innocent life- lover, someone who always has something small to gush about. Kira is the neat and classy lady, and is what you would call a queen with her gracious manners. Trish is practically the mom of the group, someone who has a big heart and is really sweet (pretty OOC, I know, but the overused sass and sarcasm on Trish's part was beginning to irk me). Piper is someone who does not care about manners and being ladylike at all, she's ready to kick ass whenever, wherever and often makes remarks about things that don't appeal to her. She does have her (very rare) girly moments though. She also enjoys messing with her sister. Carrie is basically the bubbly and jumpy girl of the group, she is not good with criticism, yet always seems to be happy in every situation. She's very playful and is keen on being friends with everyone she knows.
Phew, longest A/N yet. But yeah, that was it for today, thanks again for the views (!) and I LOVE YALL! XX
