Chapter 8
Austin's Pov
Breakfast with Ally was amazing. I had such a good time. It was so nice that she was feeling good again. Taking care of Ally was not all that easy. I never realized how much she did until she was sick and wouldn't do anything. I also felt really bad that she was sick. I hated seeing her like that. At breakfast I thought it was awesome that we talked about the future. I mean I was so amazed that Ally though as much about us as I do. I really do wonder where we will be and what we will be doing in 5 years.
After breakfast Ally said "Hey Austin. Can we hit the grocery store then the mall before we head home"? "Sure Ally" I replied. I wondered what she wanted at the mall, but we did need to go to the store. I wasn't very good at picking up groceries. When we arrived at the store we headed into the produce section were Ally started putting tomatoes into a bag. "These ones look good right?" Ally asked. "Yea they look fine" I replied. "I'm going to try and make homemade spaghetti sauce" Ally said. "Well I guess I don't have to ask if i'm gonna get some. I can't wait. I'm sure its gonna be amazing Alls". Next we grabbed simple things like milk and eggs then we went into the baking goods aisle. Ally grabbed my favourite pancake mix and my fav syrup. I was really excited. I usually had to sneak those into the cart. Ally was acting really weird. I had no idea why. I figured it was nothing. We finally got ice cream. I was very excited. Once we got the ice cream we headed for the check out counter. After we checked out we went out to the car to head for the mall. "Ally" i said "is something up? Your acting really funny I mean you never get me pancake stuff." "Its nothing really" said Ally "I just wanted to thank you for being so amazing while I was sick. You seriously did everything I asked you and more without questioning me once. I really appreciated that. You made being sick bearable. Thank you for being the greatest boyfriend ever." All I did was smile. When we got in the car I asked "So were are we going in the mall?" "Penny's or Macy's" Ally said "I need a new dress for our show next week." "cool" I said.
When we arrived at the mall we got out of the car and walked hand in hand into the mall. I loved when Ally and I held hands. Her hand was warm and her grip was soft but meaningful. I was seriously under the spell that was Ally Dawson and I was so happy about it. We were walking past a jewelry store when Ally and i saw a guy proposing to his girlfriend. "Aw that is so cute" said Ally "I sure do hope she says yes. I can see the rock from here". "That sure would be unfortunate if she said no. I can't even imagine that". As Ally and I headed for Macy's I began to think more about what we had just seen and what we had discussed earlier. I knew that Ally was my future but I couldn't do anything yet. We had been together so little time. As much as I hated myself for it I decided that in about a month or month and a half I might start looking for something but for now Ally was just going to be my amazing girlfriend.
We finally arrived in the dress section of Macy's. Ally immediately began running around grabbing dresses. I was really amazed that she was managing to even grab the right size. After she had probably grabbed 30 dresses she said "I'm gonna try these on and I'm gonna show you all of them. I really want your opinion." A couple minutes later Ally showed up in a short green dress with blue flowers and spaghetti straps. "So how about this one"? asked Ally. "I don't know about that one I said. "I don't think that this is the right one". "I agree" said Ally as she disappeared back into the dressing room. Finally after probably and hour we narrowed our choices down to 2 dresses at which point Ally just decided that she would save herself the trouble and just buy both. I was very relieved. I really wanted to get home. Anyways we did have to work eventually. Both of us had careers and we were probably due to start working on a new album. The two of us had made solo albums with eachother featured but we had never created an album together.
Finally Ally was ready to leave Macy's. I then insisted that we needed to stop and get a pretzel. I was exhausted from helping Ally choose a dress. Ally relented and we walked over to the pretzel place and I ordered an original. When it was ready I ate it while we walked out of the mall. "All in all I think that was a pretty successful trip to the mall don't you think?" I said. "Yea I think we did pretty good" said Ally "I got my dress and an extra and you got your pretzel." I laughed "I did get my pretzel." The pretzel was very good.
Once Ally and I got to my car we headed home. I really couldn't wait to crash.
