A/N- just to be clear, this story is somewhat Allington, somewhat Auslly, and somewhat Cassington:) mostly Allington though.
I don't own Austin & Ally or 'Livin' On A High Wire' by Lemonade Mouth.
The next day, Ally was doing her usual routine. Working at Sonic Boom. About an hour into her shift, Ratliff came into the store.
"Hey, Ratliff." Ally said. Ratliff waved. "How's it going with Cassidy?"
"Cassidy?" Ratliff asked.
"Yeah. I saw you two hanging out, laughing, and holding hands." Ally said.
"Well, yeah, but we're not dating." Ratliff said.
"What?" Ally asked happily.
"Yeah. I'd ask you out, but you're with that Austin guy." Ratliff said. Ally almost blew it.
"I'm not- I mean, yeah, I'm with Austin." Ally lied. Austin came into the store at that moment.
"Hey, beautiful." Austin said, shooting glares at Ratliff. Ratliff glared right back.
"Hi, Aus." Ally said. Austin mouthed "Good nickname, nice winging." Ally smiled and nodded.
"What's up?" He asked.
"Just working. I'll be busy all day. Say, do you wanna hang out later?" Ally asked.
"Sure. Sounds fun." Austin said.
"Okay." Ally said. Austin left Sonic Boom then, but not before he planted a quick kiss on Ally's lips.
"You too seem to be going along really well." Ratliff said.
"Yeah, we are." Ally said.
She again felt betrayal.
A while later, Austin and Ally were hanging out in the practice room. Ally was trying to write herself a new song, but couldn't think of anything.
"Can't think?" Austin asked her. Ally nodded, dropping her head down to the piano. "Here, I have an idea." Instead of playing the piano, Austin grabbed a guitar.
He started singing.
"Listen up
This is the story on how we lived
The glory of what we did
It started when we were kids
With music up in our heads
She said.." Ally picked up right away and started singing, too.
"I've been out on the edge
Breathin' a little bit of fresh air
Big dreams, I took a chance
Held out for everything I've got here
I've been feeling this life's a circus
Hanging on without a fear
Livin' on a high wire
Runnin' through a wildfire
You can't shake me, I'm not going nowhere
Walking on a tight rope
No net, high hopes
Step back, I'm gonna make it over
Na na na-na-na na na
Livin' on a high wire
Na na na-na-na na na
Livin' on a high wire." Austin repeated his last lines.
"This is the story on how we lived
The glory of what we did
It started when we were kids
With music up in our heads
She said..." And Ally kept going.
"Big top, turning around, no clowns
I'm running as I hit the ground
Front row, big show is sold out
So I'm ready for the crowd roar, let's go
I've been feeling this life's a circus
Hanging on without a fear
Livin' on a high wire
Runnin' through a wildfire
You can't shake me, I'm not going nowhere
Walking on a tight rope
No net, high hopes
Step back, I'm gonna make it over
Na na na-na-na na na
Livin' on a high wire
Na na na-na-na na na
Livin' on a high wire." Austin started rapping.
"When it comes to the beat
Seeing that the heads are moving
Move off your seat
Achievement is what we're really doing
Freedom of speech
I'm in it just to win it
I'm springin' and I can see it
In the end that you can be it
'Cause it's patience, it's statements
Famous, greatness
Movin' 'til you make it through
And maybe you can make it too."
"Livin' on a high wire
You can't shake me, I'm not going nowhere
Walking on a tight rope
No net, high hopes
Step back, I'm gonna make it over
Na na na-na-na na na
Livin' on a high wire
Na na na-na-na na na
Livin' on a high wire
On top, baby
We're looking down now
Livin' on a high wire!" They finished, and Austin rewarded Ally with a sincere hug.
They just broke in their friendship.
A/N- so this chapter was really hard to write, because I couldn't think of anything. The next one might be even harder, so it might not be up for a while. Just letting you know.
Oh! I'm making a new crossover story that I really think you might like! Even if you haven't read/don't like House of Night, you might like it! Please read it! It'll be up later tonight!
