And we're back with more fun

I'm sorry to tell you this is a filler chapter, but it has some Auslly/Raura to cool your nerves ahahah

Last chapter seems to be my most reviewed, which is why I'm updating quite early. Guess you like Ross teasing Raura and singing an accoustic version of a great, shirtless... Ahem

Without any more hold-up, read and enjoy!


''So, you're okay now?''

Raini and Laura were hanging in the hotel lounge, which was empty since they were using it to shoot a scene today. Taking another sip of her perfect large cup of hot chocolate, she nods and pulls her legs on the red sofa. Raini and her were early on set and Raini had taken advantage of the alone time to find out how the situation was between them two.

''We are. I felt bad so I went to his room last night and we talked it out.'' Laura keeps the details to herself and takes another large sip, subtly silencing herself. Raini looks at her intensely, hoping for her to spill more but grabs her own mug when she stays silent.

''Well, I'm glad. The argument seemed really rough.'' she comments, lays her hand over Laura's and smiles comforting. Laura nods slowly, thinking how horrible she had felt most of the day before. ''Why were you so uncomfortable about it, though?''

''You know what I told you, about Andrew. It just let the whole bucket flow over, I guess.'' Laura shrugs sadly.

''Have you explained that to Ross?'' Raini asks curiously. ''I mean, he would understand.''

''I can't do that, I feel like Andrew is a touchy subject. He also told me he noticed how we started acting weird around each other.'' Raini nods understanding. ''We're cool now, it's gonna be okay.'' she hands her mug to the waiter who replaces her empty cup with a new, hot, steamy one. In the distance she sees the two boys walking towards them, talking busily.


''What was all the stuff yesterday about?'' Calum asks Ross while they're waiting for the elevator to reach the lobby. He fixes his fringe in the mirror and looks at Ross, awaiting his reaction to this touchy subject.

''We had a little argument, it's not a big deal.'' Ross tries to brush it off and keeps staring at the numbers above the doors, trying to mentally hurry it up. Calum shakes his head, not letting go this easily.

''It didn't sound as a little argument, we heard you all the way in our rooms.'' he turns his body so he's facing him and looks at him directly.

''She came to my room and talked about it. She's feeling weird about it and I respect that, so I offered to help her figure it out.'' Ross sighs.

'''It?''

''Okay, don't tell Raini I told you this, but Laura told me she's struggling with something. She didn't tell me what it was, but it's making her upset and I don't like seeing her like that. Do you think it has to do with me?'' the elevator had finally reached its destination and they were now crossing the lobby, in the direction of the lounge.

''Do you think it does?'' Calum asks him, as the wise grown up he always is.

''Honestly, I do.'' Ross admits and stops his pace which causes his friend to stop walking as well. ''I can't blame her, I mean, I noticed I act differently around her lately. Did you?''

''Obviously.'' he casually states, shrugging and stuffing his hands in the pockets of his bright red pants. Ross raises his eyebrows.

''Great. Can I ask you something? You can't tell anyone, alright?'' he quickly runs a hand through his hair nervously while looking around them, checking if no one can hear them. Calum nods, giving his promise. ''Do you think there's a chance that I, I mean, that I'm-''

''Falling for Laura.'' Calum completes his ask. Ross's eyes widen in shock.

''Falling? No, it's not that. It sounds so serious when you put it like that.'' he thinks out loud, staring at the floor and rubbing his neck. Calum looks at Ross, trying to figure him out.

''We've all seen how close you two are, but I don't know what you feel for Laura, man. You have to figure that out by yourself, I can't help you with that.'' he tells him knowingly and pats him on the shoulder. They start to walk towards the girls who are lounging on a bright red couch, surrounded by cameras and studio lights, while Ross is still shocked by the confession he just made without thinking.

When the girls see them walking their way, Raini rises from the couch and takes place on the big chair on the opposite of it. The director had given them their seating directions already and Ross takes place next to Laura, as he had been told.

''Hey, guys!'' Laura greets the both of them, before moving closer to Ross and leaning against his side like Heath told her to do this morning. Ross wraps an arm around her shoulders, still tense, and grabs one of the mugs from the serving tray that appeared in front of him. It seemed like Laura wasn't thinking about last night and was more relax after their talk so he figured he should follow her example.

''You're early, how's the hot chocolate here?'' Calum asks the girls while taking a set in another leather chair while taking the other mug, wrapping his long fingers around it.

''We had some catching up to do. And it's really good, this is my second cup.'' Raini tells him while holding up her half-finished mug and cheers with Calum's. Ross takes a little sip of his cup, testing the hotness of the liquid when he feels Laura's eyes on him.

Ignoring her big eyes for a few seconds, he follows the conversation going on before his eyes before he's being poked in his side just as he's taking a sip. Almost choking, he turns his attention to her, still coughing. She points to her lips, giggling slightly.

''You got a little something.'' he runs his thumb over the corners of his lips before looking at it and discovering a chocolate smudge. Sucking on his thumb, he cleanses it before wiping it on his jeans. He looks at her, laughing widely before grabbing hold of her chin. Her eyes widen, reminding her of last night, when he interrupted the song by holding her chin like that. The thumb on the same hand slowly drags over the corners of her mouth before sucking the chocolate of his thumb again.

''I didn't want to say anything, but you did too. Did you seriously think you could drink two cups of hot chocolate without ending up with a chocolate moustache?'' he shakes his head at her adorably shocked form.

''You guys gonna keep sitting like that? The director isn't even here yet.'' Raini laughs at their close position just as the director appears behind her.

''You're in the right position already, great, we can start immediately.'' Raini jumps in her seat as the loud voice sounds through the lounge. ''Jane, can you fix the lights, it's too bright on Raini. Okay, that's better. Everyone ready? Scene eleven, big discovery, take one. Action!''

''Why is my cup only half full, I only took a few sips. Dez?'' Trish asks him angrily when she sees a cup that looks like it might be hers in the hands of the redhead. He slowly takes the mug from his mouth and looks at it.

''Are we doing personal cups? I thought we were switching it after every sip. I've been drinking from everyone for the past hour.'' he shrugs before taking a big sip from the cup in his hands. Everyone's eyes widen as they put the mugs on the table in disgust.

''I'll go get new ones. You can have all of these, Dez.''Trish collects the other two mugs while giving him a fake smile. He smiles widely as he gratefully takes them from her, taking a sip from every one. She shakes her head when she walks towards the bar to order three new cups.

''So, how did the song writing with those two weirdo's go?'' Dez asks the couple, misusing the word 'weirdo' after the just passed incident, making the two laugh.

''Great! They seem nice and very talented.'' Ally praises them while looking up to Austin.

''I just realized, we never even heard them play or sing anything. Plus, it seemed like we were the ones coming up with the ideas.'' Austin says after some thinking.

''Sounds like that song is really coming together.'' Dez comments, totally irrelevant to what Austin just said which makes them shake their heads. Austin feels Ally shivering against him when he sees how little she is wearing.

''Are you cold? Do you want me to get something from your room?'' he asks her worried in which she smiles.

''You really don't have to.'' she stops him before thinking about it. ''Actually, yeah, please. I mean, if you could.'' She smiles at him widely.

''It's okay, I was just about to grab a jacket myself anyway.'' he tries to stand up from the couch when a hand stops him.

''I still have my black vest laying in your room, I thought.'' she pulls him towards him and plants a kiss on his cheek before letting him go. He blushes as he squeezes her hand in return. ''Thanks, Austin.''

Just as he's about to exit the lounge, he turns around one more time to see Ally sitting on the armrest of the chair Dez is sitting on. He sees Ally's hand on his shoulder, comforting him, while Dez is crying uncontrollably, yelling his girlfriend's name over and over. He must have a hard time seeing Ally and him together when Carrie is not here with him. Ally looks over her shoulder helplessly while mouthing 'Hurry back' to him. He gives her a salute before turning around to walk to the elevators.

Humming a song, Austin strolls through the hall leading to his room. Lost in his thoughts, he throws out a few casual dance moves before he's stopped by two familiar voices clearly having an argument. He looks around but doesn't see anyone in the hall. He slowly walks along as the voices become louder. Stopping in front of the right door, he notices the sound coming from behind the door, which is open on a crack. He looks around one more time before pushing the door open, careful to not make any sound.

The door opens without a squeak and stops it on a small distance, making it possible to look into his room without drawing attention. The sight shocks him so much he has to cover his mouth to stop him from gasping loudly. Before him, he sees Stacy and Toby, probably broken into his personal room, opening different drawers, seemingly looking for something.

''Be quiet and search faster, he could come back any minute.'' Stacy orders and keeps searching, too busy to even notice Austin watching them in the doorway. ''And don't make too much of a mess, we can't leave any traces.''

''FOUND IT!'' Toby proudly raises a brown object in the air as Stacy slaps him on the arm.

''Not so loud, idiot.'' she whispers angrily and grabs it from his hand. She opens it and lays in down on the desk. In a flash, he sees a big, pink 'A' on the object and realizes it's Ally's book they wanted so badly. But why?

''Can't we just take it?'' Toby tries to take it but pulls his hand back when Stacy slaps it.

''Of course not, idiot, they'll know something is wrong. Just take photos of a few pages and we can go.'' she hands him her phone and looks around the room. Austin can pull his head back just in time, a second before her eyes land on the door. He walks back when he hears her footsteps walk towards the door. Closing his eyes, knowing he's about to be busted when the door is being closed with great force.

''You left the door open, idiot, anyone could've heard us.'' Austin lets out a breath, relieved before running towards the elevators.

''Austin? What's going on?'' Ally touches his arm as he comes running over to them. ''And where's my sweater?'' Austin shakes his head, out of breath and unable to bring what he just saw to words.

''Ally, I need to show you something.''


Aaaahhhhhh did you guys see that coming? There was something fishy about those kids

Sorry for this boring filler but this is very important for both the movie AND Raura story line. Next chapter will be my fav. Or one of em. It's a good one.

I tots forgot to answer reviews, but the new ones I got OMG you guys are amazing

Jessica L.A chapter 14

Oh my gosh! I absolutely adore this story; I was going to do a review for EVERY gosh darn chapter, but I got hooked - hook, line, and sinker. I was SOOOO depressed to find out this wasn't complete yet :( You see I have a tendency more than likely only read stories that are complete so I don't get disappointed when they stop suddenly so, I must CONGRATULATE you for keeping me hooked - and from the very first chapter at that. I have to say though this chapter is by far my favorite so far; ah-mazing-ness-ly work! Bravo, Brava - Keep it you, Girl, keep it up! Again, I'm now hooked, lined and sunk into this story - can't wait for the next update! I hope we can eventually get that A&A movie (BTW, I loved the tidbit previously about Zanessa because as much as I love Raura, Zanessa will ALWAYS be my favorite and I will always have faith they might just return to each other. I also think that if they did a movie, it'd be right up there with the HSM trilogy so good call in the previous chapter a ways back! Made this Zanessa & HSM lover proud!) Anyways, this has become super long & I REALLY want to check out to see if you've done anymore A&A and/or Raura stories - so I'm "off to see the wizard, the wonderful wizard of Oz" ;)
G'night xx - Ehm, will you be my sister? That was one LONG review I don't even know where to begin. Firstly, THANK YOU FOR BEING HOOKED THAT MEANS SO MUCH! And, YEAH ZANESSA! Even though I love her with Austin, Zanessa was THE ship, nothing can top that, am I right? OMG so sweet of you to check out my other stories, I hope you'll like them 333

bnstand chapter 14

Wow... just wow! You are getting so good at this girl! I could feel the intensity and heat btwn Ross and Laura in both scenes...especially at the end when he was playing the guitar! Can you say H-O-T HOT!? I think our golden boy might be scared to admit his feelings though and that's why he's pushing her away. That or he already had someone back home (which i really hope not!) Lol gotta keep reminding myself its just a story! - Thank you! I know, right? HEAT AND SEXUAL TENSION IS WHAT I LIVE FOR. Sorry. If you like the heat now, you'll be so happy with a chapter I'm working on right now. It's all of that in a SONG :) Also, you're really nailing it. Your guess is quite what I'm meaning for you think
