Stopping Austin's Wedding
Chapter Two
Disclaimer: I only own the plot :(
Austin's POV
The next day, I rang Dez and told him everything, how stupid I've been. I'm the worst person ever, I tell someone I'll marry them when I'm in love with my best friend. Ally... Wait, what's she gonna do? Is she going to be okay, she freaked out when she thought I was going to propose. Will she be mad?
Ally's POV
Oh my God. Austin, marrying that... that... - Austin is going to marry her? He lied to me. He told me he wasn't going to propose to her. I grabbed my book and a tear dropped on the thin page, making the black ink smudge. I wiped my eyes and began to write another two verses to my song.
He opens up my door and I get into his car
And he says, "You Look Beautiful Tonight"
And I feel perfectly fine...
But I miss screamin' and fightin'
And kissing in the rain and it's 2AM
And I'm cursing your name
You're so in love, that you acted insane
And that's the way I loved you
A tear dripped down my cheek, I'm dating Dallas and he's amazing. He's everything I need but I'm crying over the fact Austin's getting married. WHAT HAVE I DONE TO DESERVE THIS? Then Austin came through the door.
"Hey Alls. Hey! What's wrong? What's happened?" He said, when he saw me he ran to me and put his arm around me, hugging me.
"You lied to me." I stated.
"Huh? When?" He asked, confused.
"You said you wasn't going to propose to Tilly." I told him.
"I didn't propose." He simply said, removing his arm from my shoulders.
"Then, how are you engaged?" I wondered.
"She proposed to me. I was going to end everything between Tilly and me yesterday, but then she proposed."
"And you said yes!" I snapped/shouted. I CAN'T BELIEVE HE DID THIS!
"I couldn't say no to her like that. That's just mean." He said.
"Yeah, so is marrying someone you don't love." I snapped.
"What should I do Ally? If you were me, what would you do? Put yourself in my shoes!" He spat, I stood back and walked out the room, in the ten years me and Austin have been best friends he had never spoke to me like that, angrily.
"Ally!... Ally!... Ally!" He called after me. "I'm sorry, Alls. Ally!" I turned around. "Please. I'm sorry."
"It's okay. I was being well, me. I always speak to you like that. I'm sorry." I apologized. He pulled me into a hug, but then she walked in.
"WHAT ARE YOU DOING WITH MY FINANCE?" She screeched.
"Uh, it's something called a hug. Friendly gesture? No?" I explained.
"Hi Tilly." Austin greeted, awkwardly.
"Hey. We have to organize the wedding today." Austin's eyes widened slightly.
"Already?" He wailed.
"Yes already. Do you want this wedding to happen next month or not?" My and Austin's mouth flung open.
"NEXT MONTH?" We yelled in unison, shocked.
"Yep, made the deal this morning."
.GOD!
NEXT MONTH?
"The rehearsal for it is in two weeks." Tilly told us as she dragged Austin out by his hand, he waved with his other hand and mouthed, 'help me' to me. I waved back and frowned at him, trying to comfort him but it's no use. .SCREWED. Austin has to marry a girl he doesn't love, I have to let that happen and live my life in the shadows, I've loved him for ten years and he'll never know.
One week later...
I sat down in the practice room and wrote some more of the song.
(A/N: I missed one line out about the boy getting on with the girl's parents because Ally's mother isn't alive in this story)
Breakin' down and comin' undone
It's a roller-coaster kind of rush
And I never knew I could feel that much
And that's the way I loved you...
He respects my space
And never makes me wait
And he calls exactly when he says he will...
He's charming and endearing and I'm comfortable
But I miss screamin' and fightin'
And kissing in the rain and it's 2AM
And I'm cursing your name
You're so in love, that you acted insane
And that's the way I loved you
Breakin' down and comin' undone
It's a roller-coaster kind of rush
And I never knew I could feel that much
And that's the way I loved you...
He can't see the smile I'm fakin'
And my hearts not breakin'
'Cause I'm not feeling anything at all
And you were wild and crazy
Just so frustrating, intoxicating, complicated
Got away by some mistake and now...
I slipped the pencil in my pocket and looked through the mail, no wedding invitation. That's weird, Austin said they got sent out two days ago. I called him and he didn't answer, no that's weird he always answers my calls. I went over to his apartment and he opened up, I looked at his face, he was hiding something.
"Hey. I thought you said the invitations should come today?"
"Yeah. I did." He said, letting me in.
"I didn't get one."
"Tillydidn''thateme." He stated, really fast.
"I didn't get invited?" I asked, hurt.
"I'm sorry, it had nothing to do with me." He apologized.
"I'm sorry I won't be at your 'wedding'." I said, putting air quotes in at the word, wedding.
"Ally. I invite you. I don't care what Tilly says. Here's your invitation, I made you one because I knew Tilly wouldn't give you one. So here, please come." He begged, I took the invitation from his hand.
"Thank you, but why are you marrying her again?"
"I dunno."
One week later, the rehearsal was set up. We had to practise the music part. I sang an original song, not to everyone. Just Dallas.
"He is sensible, and so incredible
All my single friends are jealous
He says everything I need to hear
And it's like I couldn't ask for anything better...
He opens up my door and I get into his car
And he says
"You Look Beautiful Tonight"
And I feel perfectly fine...
But I miss screamin' and fightin'
And kissing in the rain and it's 2AM
And I'm cursing your name
You're so in love, that you acted insane
And that's the way I loved you
Breakin' down and comin' undone
It's a roller-coaster kind of rush
And I never knew I could feel that much
And that's the way I loved you...
He respects my space and never makes me wait
And he calls exactly when he says he will
He's charming and endearing and I'm comfortable...
But I miss screamin' and fightin'
And kissing in the rain and it's 2AM
And I'm cursing your name
You're so in love, that you acted insane
And that's the way I loved you
Breakin' down and comin' undone
It's a roller-coaster kind of rush
And I never knew I could feel that much
And that's the way I loved you...
He can't see the smile I'm fakin'
And my hearts not breakin'
'Cause I'm not feelin' anything at all
And you were wild and crazy
Just so frustrating, intoxicating, complicated
Got away by some mistake and now...
I miss screamin' and fightin'
And kissing in the rain
It's 2AM and I'm cursing your name
I'm so in love that I acted insane
And that's the way I loved you...
Breakin' down and comin' undone
It's a roller-coaster kind of rush
And I never knew I could feel that much
And that's the way I loved you
Oh, woah, oh
Oh and that's the way I loved you oh oh
I never knew I could feel that much
And that's the way I loved you."
He hugged me. Wait, I swear I just sang a song saying I don't want him anymore.
"Goodbye Ally. By the way, I think Austin loves you more than he'll ever love Tilly." I smiled and kissed his cheek.
"Thanks Dallas. You're a great guy, it's just you and I don't belong."
"I know we don't, but we are friends, right? We could hang out tomorrow if you want." I nodded.
"Yeah, we're friends. And yeah we could hang out some time."
Just friends now. What do you think will happen at the actual wedding? Review?
