Round and Round Chapter 1: Round & Round: Amy, a 39 clues fanfic

Round & Round

This song is Round & Round by Selena Gomez and the Scene. Read it, listen to it, and tell me if you think it's as fitting as I do.

Disclaimer: I don't own 39 Clues, or Amy and Ian would be together. It's sad but true.

Amy POV:

Amy Cahill flopped down on her bed. She had attended a Cahill meeting of the heads of all the branches. Fiske Cahill had attended as head of the Madrigal branch, and Amy and Dan had to wait in a spare conference room with the other heads' kids. This had included Jonah Wizard and the Kabras.

Amy just wanted Ian to leave her alone. He had made it clear in Korea during the Clue Hunt that he didn't like her like that, yet he continued to try charming her whenever they met. It felt like the two of them were going in circles.

Amy turned on her iPod in an attempt to distract herself from Ian's dazzling smile and smooth accent. Of course the perfect song to describe their relationship had to come on and wreck her attempt at distraction.

(Round and Round)
Round and Round
Round and Round
Round and Round

You see me standing there
And act like you don't know me
But last night you were calling me
Saying you want me

He hadn't ever called her, but Amy did get the occasional flirtatious text from Ian. Whenever they were in public together though, it was back to Chillsville USA.

Oh why you always make me feel
Like I'm the one that's crazy
You feel my heart racing
My, my heart racing

Amy's heart raced whenever she saw Ian's charming smile and smelled his expensive cologne. However, he was always confident and collected while Amy stuttered and got confused by his actions. She did feel quite crazy.

Boy, I need you here with me
We can't go on this way
I'm falling hard for you
All I can say
We're going round and round
We're never gonna stop going round and round
We'll never get where we're going
Round and round
Well you're gonna miss me
Cause I'm getting dizzy going
Round and round and round

Amy and Ian weren't getting anywhere. It was like they were chasing each other on exercise bikes*. They wouldn't get anywhere no matter how much effort they put in.

You come to pull me close
And whisper in my ear
You always told me lies
I've cried out all my tears
I push my feelings to the side
But then you bring them back
Bring them back

Amy tried to put aside her feelings for Ian. She used to cry for him at night, but those days were over. Then she would see Ian and fall for him all over again, even if the tears never returned.

Now you got me singing

Love me or love me not
I'm staring at the clock
I pick them flower petals off
And then I watch them drop

She felt like her relationship with Ian was random, up to chance. Nothing seemed certain. She was ready to give up. There had to be a healthier relationship waiting for her out there somewhere.

Boy, I need you here with me
We can't go on this way
I'm falling hard for you
All I can sayWe're going round and round
We're never gonna stop going round and round
We'll never get where we're going
Round and round
Well you're gonna miss me
Cause I'm getting dizzy going
Round and round and round

Ian would miss her. Amy was done with these games. She wouldn't let Ian Kabra torture her anymore. The next time they met, she would confront him. She had decided. It was final.

We're never gonna stop going
Round and round
We'll never get where we're going
Round and round
Well you're gonna miss me
Cause I'm getting dizzy going
Round and round and round

Whoa whoa whoa
Whoa whoa whoa
Whoa whoa whoa

Amy got up and went down to eat with Dan and Nellie. Ian had finally been forgotten. For now.

* When I say exercise bikes, I mean those things that you pedal at the gym but they're attached to the floor. I don't know what they're called.

I also have a songfic for Ian I'll be posting as chapter two of this story. If you liked this, keep your eyes open. Or set me to alert.

Review please. You know you want to.
