Chapter 12

Austin's POV

When I got to the sky deck Ally wasn't there yet so I just waited over by the front of the boat where she asked me to meet her. I went up to the rail and looked out over the passing water below us. The ocean was reflecting the bright colours of the sky from the sun which was just beginning to set. It was an amazing sight.

I just stood there for a moment enjoying the peace and beauty of the sight before me. That's when I got an idea. I went right up against the rail and spread my arms out. I felt just like the guy from Titanic.

"What's up Jack?" I heard someone say right behind me. I quickly turned around and saw it was Ally.

"Hey Ally," I said.

"So you like Titanic?" she asked gesturing to where I'd just been standing.

"Yeah, I've kind of always wanted to do that," I replied. She nodded. That's when another idea came to me.

"Hey Ally, you should try it!" I exclaimed excitedly.

"Austin you know I'm scared of boats! The last thing I want to do is stand leaning over the rail! I mean what if someone bumps into me? I could fall!" She argued.

"Don't worry, I'll hold onto you. You're not going to fall. It'll be just like in the movie! Haven't you ever imagined you were Rose?"

"Um, well," she started. I saw something change in her expression.

"It'll be fun," I said offering her my hand. She took it cautiously and let me lead her to the rail. I moved behind her and placed my arms around her waist as we stood against the rail. "Now spread out your arms, and don't worry I've got you," I added at the expression on her face as I used one arm to gently extend her arm while still holding her tightly with the other one. We just stood there against the rail like that for about a minute. Then I moved my head up over her shoulder.

"See that wasn't too bad now was it?" I asked a light smile playing on my lips. She brought her hands down to rest on mine around her waist, and turned her head so that she was face to face with me.

"No, and you were right, I had always wondered what that would have been like, and I see why they enjoyed that moment so much," she said with a smile.

"Me too," I replied returning the smile. We just stood their looking into each others eyes for a minute before she leaned up to me and I felt her lips pressed against mine. I couldn't help but smile. I loved this feeling. It made my heart beat like crazy and it felt just so... right. I don't know how long we had stood like that when Ally finally pulled away. I moved my hands away from under Ally's and spun her around to face me.

"So, does this mean you like me?" I asked while still holding onto her waist.

"Yeah," she replied a blush going across her cheeks.

"Well I'm glad to hear that because I like you to, a lot." She blushed even more. "So are we like a couple now then?" I asked hoping she'd say yes.

"As long as that's what you want, then I'd like that," she said with a smile.

"I would love that," I said before leaning down to kiss her again. When we pulled away I grabbed her hand and started to walk down the deck. "So what was it you had planned for tonight?" I asked as we walked along hand in hand.

"Well, I was thinking that we could watch the sunset together. It's just so beautiful and it's one of my favourite things to do," she said looking at me hopefully. "But mainly, that note was just an excuse to spend more time with you, I didn't really care what we did," she confessed a couple seconds later with a small giggle. I laughed too.

"I'd love to watch the sunset with you," I answered her. "How about we go get one of those blankets they're giving out for the movie on the lido deck?" I asked pointing down the steps.

"Okay," Ally agreed so we walked down there. We ended up getting two blankets. We then went back up to the sky deck where we'd been standing at the rail. We laid down one blanket for us to lay on and put the other one over us. We watched the sky as it became covered with a variety of vibrant colours. There were pinks, purples, and oranges of the most beautiful shades. The sight was truly amazing.

"I see why you like this so much," I said to Ally as she snuggled up closer to me under the blanket.

"Yeah, I like it even more when I have you to share it with," she replied. I just pulled her even closer to me.


Ally's POV

As we continued to watch the sky began to get darker and we soon found ourselves staring at the stars. The temperature also started to cool off as it got later so I snuggled up closer to Austin under the blanket. He didn't seem to mind though.

After a while Austin started to point out constellations to me.

"There, those stars over there," he said pointing to three closely grouped stars, "those are Orion's Belt and if you look at the stars around it you can see Orion. And those stars over there, they form the Big Dipper which is a part of Ursa Major, " he said pointing those out as well.

"Wow, I never knew you were so interested in astronomy," I said looking at him impressed.

"Yeah, it's just another one of my hobbies, not too many people know about it," he said, blushing a bit.

"I think it's cool," I said truthfully. "Do you mind showing me some more?"

As we lay together on the deck with Austin showing me the constellations I couldn't be more happy. I couldn't think of a better way to spend my evening. Everything just felt so perfect.


A/N: I actually love astronomy so if anyone's interested in any of it you can ask me! Thanks for reading! Until next time!
