Hey guys, thanks for reviewing, you guys really made my day. Well, then it was ruined with the whole 'deleting drama...' So sorry for anyone who thought the last update was a chapter, I was just trying to let you guys know, iof you didn't know. Anyway, here is the real chapter seven!
I own nothing!
Ally's POV
I sighed as I sat on the edge of my bed, staring at my reflection in the full length mirror. I looked great, ready for the concert with Austin. Only thing is, I don't even think it's still a plan. I hadn't talked to Austin since yesterday, when he yelled at me.
It's pretty sad, really. Austin and I were friends-kind of- and then he blew it. Well, he was pretty upset but I didn't do anything to make him yell at me! I mean, honestly! So I spent the day raiding my closet and suitcase (I was too lazy to unpack everything) and spent hours debating on whether or not I was going. This led to the removing make up before applying it again and the same with the clothes.
Suddenly, I heard the sound of a car hooting. I ran to my window seat in curiosity and hope as I looked down. Austin's hand came out from the window, waving at me to come down. I squealed in excitement and grabbed my purse before running downstairs. Mom waved bye as Tasha smiled at me. Dad just stared, completely lost. I giggled and ran outside to Austin's waiting car. I opened the passenger seat and sat down on the leather seat. Austin started the engine, eying me as he did so.
"Looks like all that time you spent getting ready paid off," he stated with a grin. I let out a sigh of relief. Thank goodness, he wasn't mad at me anymore.
"Why do you sound relieved?"
I smiled slightly, "I'm just glad you aren't mad at me anymore," I replied. Austin sighed, "Sorry, my mum was giving me a hard time." I gaped at him.
"What?"
"Austin Moon apologised for his behaviour!" I exclaimed in mock- shock. Hey, that rhymed! Austin playfully rolled his eyes at me, "Psh, whatever..."
I smiled, I really liked this Austin way better than his bad boy act... If only he showed this side of him more often.
"Ally," Austin says, "You're quiet."
I looked up from my lap, "oh, I was just thinking..."
"About how sexy I am?"
I laughed, shoving his shoulder lightly, "eh, Dallas is better." Austin's jaw dropped, making me laugh again. "I was joking," I told him after I managed to stop laughing. Austin sadly shook his head, "Dawson, jokes are supposed to be funny!" he said dramatically, making me roll my eyes at him, "And that, young lady, was not funny!"
"You are such a Drama Queen."
"Don't you mean King?"
"Nope." Austin chucked, "Okay then, I'm your Queen, you're the servant."
"I'm not a servant!"
"And I'm not a Queen!" We both glanced at each other before laughing. "You know, you're way more bearable when you're in a good mood," I stated.
"Please, I'm always bearable."
"You're joking, right?" I said, making him smile. "But seriously, I want to get to know you better," I said.
"What do you want to know?"
"Something. Anything. Everything."
"Umm, okay... well I like pancakes, scary movies, girls, colouring outside the lines, Megan Fox-"
"Megan Fox?"
Austin shrugged, "hey, she's hot. Anyway, I hate Spiderman, I'm scared of umbrellas, my favourite colour is yellow, I like surfing, football, basketball, cricket, rugby, I hate it when you get the same toy in your Happy Meal over and over again and when I was a kid all I ever wanted was to see the face of that woman from Tom and Jerry." I chuckled, "Wow."
"I know, I'm amazing. Your turn."
"I love pickles, cloud watching, playing piano, hanging out with my friend, Trish, I love dogs and I hate watching scary movies-"
"Aww, I didn't know you were scared easily," he said, smirking.
"No, they're so boring!"
"WHAT?"
"Well they are! Hmm, let's see... oh yeah, my favourite colour is red, I'm horrible at every single sport but I like tennis-"
"Tennis?"
"Will you please stop interrupting me?" he nodded with another eye roll, "Thank you. When I was a kid I really wanted to be a butterfly when I grew up-" Austin interrupted me again, this time by laughing.
"Austin!"
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry..." he was still smiling but he stopped laughing. I huffed and pouted my lips as I crossed my arms.
"Ally, don't be like that, when I was a kid I thought there was a little man who switched off the light in the fridge whenever you closed the door." I started to giggle which turned into more laughter. Austin smiled at me before turning back to the road, "Hey, we're here."
"Already?"
"It's been twenty minutes, Ally."
"Oh." Austin grinned and parked the car in the full parking lot.
After another twenty minutes of arguing over who was paying for the snacks, we finally made it into the auditorium. Since we came a few minutes early, we got seats in the fourth row. I smiled as I took my seat. Excitement filled my body once again as more and more people came in. I was finally going to see Maroon 5! If only Trish were here, I bet she'd run onto stage and belt out the songs with Adam Levine. She may not be the best singer but she'd do it anyway. I laughed to myself at this thought.
"What's so funny?"
"Nothing, I'm just really psyched to be here!" I stated before hugging him, "thanks so much." Austin hugged me close, "no problem, Als," he whispered. His hot breath tickled my ear, causing me to shiver. I inhaled Austin's scent, it smelt like a fresh summer's breeze... like Dallas. But Austin works it better... He broke the hug just as Maroon 5 walked onto stage. I guess we were so caught up in the moment we didn't even hear them being announced.
"Hello everybody," Adam's voice boomed over the speakers, "Are you guys ready to rock?" The massive audience screamed in response. I can't believe I'm actually here!
Just shoot for the stars
If it feels right
And aim for my heart
If you feel like
And take me away and make it OK
I swear I'll behave
"OMG I LOVE THIS SONG!" I exclaimed, making Austin laugh.
You wanted control
So we waited
I put on a show
Now I make it
You say I'm a kid
My ego is big
I don't give a shit
And it goes like this
[Chorus:]
Take me by the tongue
And I'll know you
Kiss me 'til you're drunk
And I'll show you
All the moves like Jagger
I've got the moves like Jagger
I've got the moves like Jagger
I don't need to try to control you
Look into my eyes and I'll own you
With them moves like Jagger
I've got the moves like Jagger
I've got the moves like Jagger
[Verse 2:]
Baby it's hard
When you feel like you're broken and scarred
Nothing feels right
But when you're with me
I'll make you believe
That I've got the key
Oh
So get in the car
We can ride it
Wherever you want
Get inside it
And you want to steer
But I'm shifting gears
I'll take it from here (Oh! Yeah yeah!)
And it goes like this (Uh)
[Chorus:]
Take me by the tongue
And I'll know you (Uh)
Kiss me 'til you're drunk
And I'll show you
All the moves like Jagger
I've got the moves like Jagger
I've got the moves like Jagger
I don't need to try to control you (Oh, yeah)
Look into my eyes and I'll own you
With them moves like Jagger
I've got the moves like Jagger (Yeah yeah)
I've got the moves like Jagger
I screamed when Christina started singing. Austin smiled at me as we both sang along.
[Bridge:]
You wanna know how to make me smile
Take control, own me just for the night
And if I share my secret
You're gonna have to keep it
Nobody else can see this
So watch and learn
I won't show you twice
Head to toe, oooh baby rub me right
But if I share my secret
You're gonna have to keep it
Nobody else can see this (Ay! Ay! Ay! Aaay!)
And it goes like this
[Chorus:]
Take me by the tongue (Take me by the tongue)
And I'll know you
Kiss me 'til you're drunk
And I'll show you (Yeah yeah yeah!)
Austin grabbed my hand, making me dance with him. I smiled shyly at him but joinned in anyway.
All the moves like Jagger
I've got the moves like Jagger
I've got the moves like Jagger
(Oh, yeah)
I don't need to try to control you
Look into my eyes and I'll own you
With them moves like Jagger
I've got the moves like Jagger
I've got the moves like Jagger
The song ended and they started Misery,' my other favourite.
Oh yeah
Oh yeah
So scared of breaking it
But you won't let it bend
And I wrote two hundred letters
I will never send
Sometimes these cuts are so much deeper than they seem
You'd rather cover up
I'd rather let them bleed
So let me be
And I'll set you free
[Chorus:]
I am in misery
There ain't nobody who can comfort me
(Oh yeah)
Why won't you answer me
The silence is slowly killing me
Girl you really got me bad
You really got me bad
I'm gonna get you back
Gonna get you back
Your salty skin and how
It mixes in with mine
The way it feels to be
Completely intertwined
Not that I didn't care
It's that I didn't know
It's not what I didn't feel,
It's what I didn't show
So let me be
And I'll set you free
I am in misery
There ain't nobody who can comfort me (Oh yeah)
Why won't you answer me
The silence is slowly killing me
Girl you really got me bad
You really got me bad
I'm gonna get you back
I'm gonna get you back
Say your faith is shaken
You may be mistaken
You keep me wide awake and
Waiting for the sun
I'm desperate and confused
So far away from you
I'm getting there
I don't care where I have to go
Why do you do what you do to me, yeah
Why won't you answer me, answer me, yeah
Why do you do what you do to me, yeah
Why won't you answer me, answer me, yeah
I am in misery
There ain't nobody who can comfort me (Oh yeah)
Why won't you answer me
The silence is slowly killing me (Oh yeah)
[x3]
Girl you really got me bad
You really got me bad
I'm gonna get you back
Gonna get you back
After a few more songs, it was time for the interval. Some people remained in the auditorium, but Austin and I left for some fresh air.
"Having a great time?" he asked me. I looked at him, my smile so big it was almost touching my ears, "Heck yeah! This is the best night of my life! I don't think I can ever pay you back."
Austin grinned at me, "I'll think of something." I gaped at him, making him laugh, "joking, sheesh..."
Out of the corner of my eye, I could see two girls watching us and whispering. Austin must have noticed as well because he winked at them, making them turn pink. Something stirred inside me, I didn't like the feeling. I gave Austin a hug, with my arms around his neck. I kissed his cheek as his arms wrapped around my waist. The girls glared enviously at me as they passed us, whilst I smirked at them. Austin grinned down at me, "are you jealous?"
I acted surprised, "What? Me? Psh, no." Austin's grin turned into a smirk, "so you wouldn't mind if I went to go talk to them?"
"Um, I'd rather you stay here... you're warm," I said, snuggling into his chest. Austin laughed, 'You're so jealous."
"Nu uh."
"Uh huh," he said. He lifted my chin, "I think it's adorable." My breath hitched in my throat as I stared into his warm brown eyes. He leaned forward and at first I thought he was going to kiss me but then he kissed my forehead. I tried to slow down my racing heart.
Don't be silly, Ally I thought, Austin and I are just friends. Why would he kiss me? Just friends... just friends... just friends... we are just friends. Austin's arms left my waist, "let's go back inside." I nodded wordlessly and followed him back inside.
The rest of the concert was great, actually. I think the best moment was after the concert, backstage! We met Adam and he signed my autograph book! We even got a picture taken; just the three of us. Although it was kind of awkward when he thought Austin was my boyfriend. He just laughed and shrugged it off, whilst I stood there like a red idiot.
Well, the car ride home was spent in a comfortable silence. After all the fun I've had tonight, I can actually believe that Austin and I might just be the best of friends soon. I've learnt so much about him that he hides from everyone else and that thought alone just makes me want to smile. I wonder how he can manage to be so obnoxious, mean and jerk-ish and then become so sweet, funny and innocent. It's like he has two different personalities. I guess I'm glad with both of them, because when he's mean I actually stick around – probably due to my curiosity – and when he's nice it's just so hard to shut him out.
I don't think I want to go home now, back to being the nobody and having Trish as my only company. Here, I have Tasha, Austin, Ross, Dallas, Mom... not so much Dez, but... yeah, not so much Dez. When I'm here it's like people actually appreciate me. Well, Sonya not included, obviously. I doubt anyone back home would actually take me to a concert. Austin then broke the silence, which I knew he would.
"Ally, why are you being so quiet? I figured after this experience I'd have trouble shutting you up." I raised my eyebrow at him, "So you want me to talk?"
"Yes, it's not natural for you to be quiet, that's like me being ugly," he stated. I rolled my eyes at him but laughed anyway, "thanks for your concern," I said sarcastically.
"You're welcome," he said, not picking up on my sarcasm, "I had a great time tonight, Als." I didn't even notice we were back home. I smiled at him, "Me too. Thanks again, Austin."
"No prob, see you tomorrow," he said, giving me a hug. I hugged him back, "yea, see you tomorrow." Then, as I was about to get out of the car, Austin kissed my cheek before saluting at me with his right and index fingers. I smiled like a doofus as I walked into the house, still in a daze.
"Hey, hey, hey," Tasha said, greeting me. I jumped in surprise, since it was around eleven and the house was pretty empty. I put a hand to my chest, "oh my pickles you scared me!"
Tasha giggled at me, "Sorry, I wasn't asleep and I heard you guys come back so I came to see you."
"Oh," I said quietly as we walked upstairs, "What were you doing up?"
"I was just doing my-" Tasha froze in mid sentence, her eyes slightly wide. I looked at her in confusion and curiousity, "What?"
Tasha nerously fingered her hair as her eyes darted everywhere but my face, "I was... doing my... um... homework! Yes, my homework!"
I out my hands on my hips, "its summer."
"You wait till the last minute, then," she said hurriedly before rushing to her room.
I wonder what she's hiding...
Done at last!
Sammie ;)
