Hi...So, how's it going? Oh, you're mad. I see..(: Uh, well. I'm sorry? Yeah. Anyway, I really am so so sorry it's taken em this long. I've been busy and lazy, basically. Anyway, I have a problem, and I need you help. I'll tell you in the bottom A/N. (: Now, on to chapter 10! Thanks so much for your lovely reviews on the previous chapter! You all made my day!(:
Disclaimer: *sigh* If only...but, no, I don't own Austin and Ally.
A&A
"What?" Austin asked dumbfounded. Out of all the things she could ask for, she asked for that? How did she even know he could sing? Yes, he was confused, but he couldn't just say no. It'd be rude, and he had been doing a good job at not being rude. He wasn't going to stop now.
"Y-you don't have to. I-" Ally stuttered before Austin cut her off. "No, it's fine. I was just shocked. Are you sure that's what you want, though? I mean, I thought you'd go for something more special. How did you know I could sing?" Austin asked all in one breath. Ally smiled. "It's special, Austin. To me it's very special. And Grandma Ruth told me. I also figured you could sing since you liked instruments so much," Ally explained.
"I should have known it was her that told you. I don't know if I'm any good, but if it makes you happy then yeah, I'll sing for you," he said while nodding. Ally grinned and hugged him tightly. "Thank you so much, Austin." She had her arms around his neck as she whispered this, and he had his arms around her back loosely.
He couldn't stop the small smile forming on his lips. That's just what Ally did to him. She made him smile. Cheesy, huh?
A&A
Over the time that Austin had known Ally, he'd learned much about her. She wasn't the most open book out there unless she knew that you really wanted to get to know her. As she had seen with Austin. She just had a feeling that, even though he'd be leaving eventually, he would stick around until then. Sure, she wished that he would stay for a long time, but since it wouldn't be forever she had to get to know him as well.
Some things that she had learned from him is that he's a really sweet guy. Well, at least to her he is. She's also learned that he wasn't the most organized person. He'd constantly ask her for her notes because he had lost his somewhere in his book. 'A sea of paper,' she called it.
He was very honest, too. He wasn't the best liar in the world. Or maybe Ally was just like a lie detector. She could easily tell when he was lying. For instance, 4 days after they had met, Austin told Grandma Ruth that he had no homework right there in front of Ally. Suffice to say, he had double work that afternoon. From Ally.
Austin was very social. He could make friends with anyone as long as he was nice. Something that, not only Ally, but he himself had learned. He usually never made any true friends because he was so caught up in being with the 'populars.' He never had one true friend in Boston because everyone wanted to be cool along with him.
But here, he was different. He was himself. The people around him knew how he was, and they knew that if they liked him it was really him. So they had a choice of sticking around or leaving because they don't like him. Most people though, stayed because he was very easy to like. Or hard to hate..
A&A
On the day of Ally's birthday, Austin had everything planned. He had the place and song ready. All he had to do was get things over with. It was supposed to be a great day for both he and Ally.
It had started out like any other day except that Austin knew it wasn't. He woke up on his own, early, and went downstairs to help Grandma Ruth make breakfast. As he walked down the stairs, he thought about how great today would be. Of course, everyday spent with Ally was great, but something about today made it extra special. Oh yeah, her birthday.
"Good morning, Austin!" Grandma Ruth exclaimed as she flipped a pancake. Austin's eyes lit up as he saw the pancake being flipped perfectly. "Good morning! Man, I want pancakes," he stated while staring at the stack of them on the counter. He reached for them, but Grandma Ruth slapped his hand away. "These are for the Dawson's. I'm sure you want to carry them over there, don't you?" she asked while placing the last pancake in the stack.
"How'd you know?" Austin asked while crossing his arms suspiciously. "Honey, any fool could see that you like Ally. Now pass me the aluminum foil," she said nonchalantly. Austin glared at her but obliged. "I don't like her," he mumbled while passing her the foil. "Sure, honey. Sure," Grandma Ruth mutter while wrapping the plate of pancakes.
"Here," she said while handing Austin the plate. "Go on, now. Tell Ally I'll see her later with her present." Austin nodded and headed for the door. It's not like he wanted to make breakfast anyway.
"Oh and Austin," Grandma Ruth called, "make this Ally's best birthday. She deserves it." Austin smiled and assured her that he would. Grandma Ruth was right after all; she did deserve it.
A&A
So there Austin was, at the Dawson's house. He'd remembered the path taken to get there form the time Ally had fallen in front of the house. He rang the doorbell and waited patiently with a plate in his hands. After 5 minutes of waiting, he figured no one was home so he was about to leave.
Suddenly, the door flung open and there stood Ally with a robe and bed-head. Austin held back a laugh as Ally's eyes-widened. She yelped and shut the door swiftly. "Wait out there!" Ally yelled while running up the stairs. She hurriedly put a baggy shirt on and some basketball shorts before messily putting her hair up in a bun.
She sighed loudly and ran back down the stairs to the door. She opened it to see Austin looking around. "Hey, Austin. What are you doing here?" Austin smiled and raised an eyebrow. "Well, I came here to give you these," he said while handing her the plate, "and to say happy birthday. So, happy birthday!" Ally raised an eyebrow.
She'd forgotten her own birthday.
A&A
"I can't believe you forgot your birthday," Austin said while laughing. They were sitting at Ally's kitchen table while eating pancakes. Ally smiled sheepishly and shrugged. "My bad," she mumbled while taking a bite form her pancake. Ally's dad had left early to the store since it was her day off, but he had left a note for her.
"And I woke you up?" Ally nodded and sighed. "Yes, you did. That explains why my hair was so.." she trailed off while moving her hands around her head to show how bad it had looked. Austin laughed. "You still looked cute," he said carelessly. Ally blushed and continued to eat her pancakes.
"So, what are you going to do today?" Austin asked. Ally looked up and shrugged. "Nothing." Austin gasped dramatically, and put his fork down. "No. You will do something. Ally, it's your birthday. Come on," he said while standing up. Ally looked at him questioningly. "Where are you going?" she asked.
"We are going to do something fun today. It's your 17th birthday, and it's going to be a good one," he said while grabbing her hand gently and helping her stand up. "Austin, I have to change. I can't be seen like this," she complained while pointing to her clothes. Austin rolled his eyes and shook his head. "No, Ally, you look fine. Let's go," he urged while pulling her toward the door.
"B-but I have to-" Austin, however, had already pulled her out the door.
This was going to be a long day..
Okay, so once again, sorry for taking so long to update. Anyway, oh yeah, I need help. So, as some may know, the one-shot I promised ages ago has been possibly turned into a story. Curse my mind..
I say possibly because I have many ideas for it, but I could also just end it and leave it as a one-shot. I want to post some of it, which I will, so I can get your opinions. (: What should I do?
And also I want to change the summary of this story because it doesn't even follow the story. I just kind of used it as a guide for the first few chapters, but the story took a turn and yeah. I need help with it so if anyone has some ideas, they'd be greatly appreciated.
Anyone want to make me a one-shot? ;) I've been working on one for the word 'Adorkable' since the live-stream the cast did a few days ago, but it doesn't come out right. I'd love to see someone else's ideas for that word. (: Thanks!
Thank you so much for reading, and please review!(: I enjoy reading them! PM me if you'd like to! Thanks loves!(:
