Chapter 4
Ally was behind the counter of Sonic Boom. It had been two days since she had received the text message that shook her to the very core.
She hadn't seen or heard from Blake yet and part of her hoped that she never would. The fear of him just showing up at any moment followed her like her own shadow.
She would be called a liar if she said that she didn't want see him at all. For some unknown reason she still found herself in love with him, the boy who had shattered her heart still held it tight in his hands. Logic would dictate that she should despise him that the thought of him should disgust her and yet the butterflies in her stomach betrayed her.
She wanted nothing more than to forget her past and truly move on but she wasn't sure exactly how to do that.
The memories of both the love they shared and the pain that she endured everyday haunted her. Ally wasn't sure if she'd ever be free of the hold he had on her.
Oh how she longed to be free. Her soul ached to feel something, anything other than the constant reaching pain that held her heart hostage.
She knew it wasn't right for him to have so much power over her; they didn't even know each other the two were kids when he left. In Ally's mind it had slowly become a distant memory, almost like a dream that she barely recalled and yet at any moment something could trigger a memory which made the wounds fresh and real as they were the first time.
Ally hoped that maybe, just maybe when she saw Blake she could find some closure and finally, after all those years put her past behind her.
"Hey, Al! You want to finish that new song of ours?" A tall blond guy said as he waltzed into Sonic Boom. His signature smile shone brightly.
This knocked Ally out of her deep thoughts. She laughed at the cheesiness of her best friend as he made his way behind the counter to hug her, hello.
He was the only one that seemed to be able to take her mind off of Blake. He always knew the right distraction to use or just to being his silly self. Ever since the two first met he had been her escape from the never-ending soap opera in her mind.
"Sure! Hey, dad! I'm going ahead and taking my lunch break now." She yelled to her father who was across the store with a customer near the tubas.
Without words the two practically skipped up the stairs to the practice room. Ally made a b-line for the black baby-grand and started to play.
Austin watched her with a grin of his face. He loved when she would get all excited about a new song; she was like a kid on Christmas morning. He followed close behind, then leaned against the piano and began to sing.
So here's another day
I'll spend away from you
Another night I'm on another broken avenue
My bag is ripped and worn
Then again now so am I
Take what you want to take
What you wanna take
What you…
I miss the stupid things
We'd go to sleep and then
You'd wake me up and kick me out of bed at 3 AM
Pick up the phone and hear you saying dirty things to me
Do what you wanna do
What you wanna do
What you…
Take me with you
I start to miss you
Take me home
I don't wanna be alone tonight
And I do want to show you
I will run to you to you till I
Can't stand on my own anymore
I cross my heart and hope to die
Cross my heart and hope to die
Cross my heart and hope to..
Hotels are all the same
You're still away from me
Another day
Another dollar that I'll never see
Gonna get the pieces
The pieces
Pieces of something good
Lie just a little lie
Just a little lie
Just a..
I wonder what you're doing
I wonder if you doubt it
I wonder how we ever used to go so long without it
I don't know where to go
I'm going back to you
Be where I ought to be
Where I ought to be
Where I…
Take me with you
I start to miss you
Take me home
I don't wanna be alone tonight
And I do want to show you
I will run to you to you till I
Can't stand on my own anymore
I cross my heart and hope to die
Take me with you
I start to miss you(x9)
Take me Home
I don't wanna be alone tonight!
And I do want to show you
I will run to you to you till I
Can't stand on my own anymore
I cross my heart and hope to die
And I do want to show you
I will run to you to you till I
Can't stand on my own anymore
I cross my heart and hope to die
And I do want to show you
I will run to you to you till I
Can't stand on my own anymore
I cross my heart and hope to die
And I do want to show you
I will run to you to you till I
Can't stand on my own anymore
I cross my heart and hope to die
"Yeah!" Austin cried once the last note was sung. The two partners shared a high-five then hugged excitedly. Just like before Austin's stomach flip flopped and a warm feeling came over him. He never wanted the hug to end but knew it must.
When they pulled away Ally said, "Wow, it might be one of my favorites we've ever done! I can't get over it. It actually sounds like both of us for once."
Austin smiled and nodded in agreement. It was a first for the duo they found a song that expressed both of them which with them being complete opposites wasn't an easy feat.
"I can't wait too film it. I bet it will be our biggest hit ever!" Austin said. He took his usual seat at the bench while Ally stood in front of him with a giant smile on her face.
This made him happy. She had been so upset and distracted since she found out that Blake would be moving back to Miami. This was the first time he could see she wasn't consumed by thoughts of her ex. She was his Ally again and he hoped that she would stay that way.
Ally checked her phone for the time; she had about fifteen minutes left in her break. "Hey, I have fifteen minutes left in my break do you want to go get something to eat?"
Austin smiled at this proposal. "Yeah, sounds great. I'm starved."
The two made their way down the stairs. Ally led the way but then bumped into someone once she reached the last step.
"Oh I'm so sorry. I didn't…" Ally started to explain as the person she ran into turned around.
It was a guy about her age he was about the same height as Austin with brown hair and brown eyes.
Ally's face turned from apologetic to pure horror. "Ally, it's good to see you." He said genuinely happy to see her.
The frazzled brunette didn't know what to say so all that came out was, "Blake…"
SO? What did you think? Review so I can know! And if you don't review I hope you liked it anyways. :D
