Thanks to my reviewers. Here is my next chapter. I don't know how it's going to end, but we'll just have to see.
Ally awoke with a blanket over her and she looked over to see Austin sprawled out with the cover over him as well. He was still in the clothes Ally had let him borrow and then she looked at the time. It was 5:00 AM; they had slept through the night. The movie DVD menu was flickering on the TV screen. Austin turned in his sleep facing the screen his hair a mess.
Ally slowly got up not wanting to wake Austin and went to the laundry room. The laundry room was lit and the clothes were already in the dryer. There was a note written in her father's scratchy handwriting. I put the clothes in the dryer; the two of you looked tuckered out. I didn't want to wake you. Austin can keep the clothes for emergencies, they don't fit me anyways.-Dad Ally laughed at her dad's rambling note and set it aside opening the dryer. She began folding the clothes. She left her clothes in the dryer and took Austin's clothes to the living room.
As she stepped into the room Ally saw Austin still asleep on the couch. He had sprawled out taking up the spot she had been lying in earlier. She set the clothes on the coffee table and knelt by Austin's head. Ally had to admit his sleeping face was pretty cute, although she'd never admit it out loud. Suddenly, Austin blinked opening his eyes. Ally jumped back and blushed. "Hey Als, what are you doing? What time is it?" Austin couldn't resist pretending to be asleep. The truth was he woke up after Ally got up. He was surprised that Ally was so close, though.
"Um, uh, I was setting your clothes down on the table and was getting ready to wake you." Ally stuttered reaching for a strand of her hair. Austin caught her hand stopping her from nervously nibbling on her hair. "Hey, you know that's not good for you." Austin laughed. Ally's cellphone went off and she quickly searched for it. Once she found it she pressed a button lighting the screen. Ally's eyes got wide and she glanced at Austin. "What is it, Ally?" Austin sat up and looked at her face frozen in shock. "Dallas has been texting and trying to call since about eight. He said he was sorry in his texts and then he started saying the worst things. I told him to stop." Ally frowned turning away. Austin slid off the couch onto the floor beside her.
"Go home Austin, I need to be alone, please." Ally refused to look at him. Austin held out his hand can I please see the messages. "Austin, it's-it's nothing just go." Ally cried wiping at her eyes. Austin took the phone as Ally attempted to take it back. "Austin, if you do something it'll just make it worse." Ally pushed him trying to reach her phone. It only took Austin to see a few of the words Dallas used like "hussy", "bitch", and "skank". He had never known Dallas to say those words to Ally let alone anyone else. Austin stood dropping the phone in Ally's hands. "Ally, I could kill him! He has gone too far!" Austin's hands balled into fists and Ally quickly touched one of his hands. "Austin, I'll deal with it. Please calm down; I need some comforting not more pain." Ally frowned. "Okay, okay, I won't beat him up, right now. We'll get him back for it, I promise." Austin sank back onto the floor and held her as she cried into his shoulder.
Ally was leaning against the counter in Sonic Boom, but her book lay untouched by her arm. Austin and Dez were playing with a set of drums, but Austin kept an eye on Ally. Trish came in beaming "Guess who got a job at Waggin' Tails Pet Shop!" Ally gave a slight smile "What happened to Wacky Flamingo's Putt-putt Palace?" Trish sighed "Apparently, you're not allowed to drive a golf cart there." Ally shook her head not wanting to question her friend about it. Dallas walked past the shop doors at that moment and Ally averted her eyes.
"Ally, do you have any new songs written, yet?" Trish was eager to change the topic to something more fun than her new job. "Kind of, I haven't been able to get into the right mind set to finish the song I started." Ally frowned as Dallas walked by again "Excuse me, watch the counter a moment please Trish." Ally grabbed her book and walked outside where Dallas was waiting. "Ally, we need to talk in private." Dallas was insistent. "Listen, you've apologized enough. I don't need you walking back and forth in front of the store. Your girlfriend will get the wrong idea and Austin would get angry." Ally had managed to lie and without the lie showing clear on her face. "Ally, what happened to us a month ago? Weren't we in love?" Dallas grabbed one of her hands. "Dallas, you broke up with me. Shouldn't that be my line?" Ally pulled her hand away and turned to go back inside.
"I know, but-" Dallas began and Ally stopped him. "Stop, I don't care. It's in the past." Ally began to walk away and Dallas pulled her to him kissing her. She tried to pull away "No, St-" Dallas's lips covered hers again. Then she felt Dallas's hand being removed from he and someone's arms wrap around her pulling her away from him. Ally gasped tears running down her face and saw Dallas glare at the person holding her.
Ally looked up to see Austin glaring back at Dallas and his hands balled into fists against her. "Don't touch my girl! You touch her again and I'll make you wish you were dead!" Austin growled. Ally turned crying into Austin and her other two friends appeared behind them. "Ally, what happened?" Trish asked "Did Dallas do something?" "Nah, I don't see that he has a new girlfriend." Dez said and Trish elbowed him in the stomach. Dallas glanced at Ally trembling in Austin's arms and then walked off.
"Ally, you dropped your book." Austin sighed and Ally moved away picking up her book. "Austin, what did you do yesterday? I know you said you were taking Ally on a first fake date. Apparently, it worked really well." Trish sighed. "Hey she's right, what happened." Dez put an arm around Trish's shoulder. "Could we talk about this somewhere else?" Austin looked at Ally who was now crying again. Trish nodded and suggested "The practice room in five minutes. Ally's dad we'll be taking over then." They all agreed and Trish pulled Dez back inside while Austin stayed with Ally as she composed herself.
I know I kind of made the Ally and Austin moment in the beginning short, but there are more moments to come.
