A/N: Hey fellow Austin & Ally fans! I'm back with chapter 4! Now, I'm not sure how good this chapter was, it is kind of just a filler, but it works for whatever way you look at it! Also, I'll warn you now, that the beginning of this chapter is pretty violent, but it doesn't last too long, so if you don't like violence, then just skip it, it doesn't really change the chapter if you do. It will all make sense after! Anyways, enjoy! Sorry if it's pretty short and for mistakes if there are any.
Ally was walking through the school cafeteria with her friend Aubrey Lyles during lunch when she suddenly heard a scream and a gun shot. They both whipped around and saw a Grade 12 student named Jake Fellows with a gun in his hand and one of Ally and Aubrey's classmates Jess Tyler lying on the ground next to him, her body limp. Ally and Aubrey both ducked for cover along with everyone else in the cafeteria as Jake open fired on another student, killing them instantly.
Both girls dove under the nearest table as Jake started yelling at everyone to shut up. They watched as some students and teachers were also diving under tables, while others were trying to escape through the doors. Jake pulled the trigger and Ally watched the horror unfold in front of her as she saw two bodies fall to the ground in the mass of rampaging students.
"I thought I told everyone to shut up!" Jake yelled in fury. He walked over to a table and looked under it, the gun pointed at whoever was under there. Ally could here a boy's pleading with Jake, and immediately recognized the voice as Kyle Summers, a boy in her class. His pleading was cut short by yet another shot.
"Please Jake, put the gun down. We can talk about this." Ally heard a voice saying slowly and she recognized it as the school principal's voice, Ms. Santiago.
Jake looked at her and said, "I'm done with talking. It hasn't helped me or done anything for me in the past at all!" before putting a bullet through her head.
No one was bothering to stay quiet anymore, as many people were crying and screaming now.
Ally heard footsteps coming her way and she looked up to see Jake's feet in front of her table. She and Aubrey huddled closer together as he bent down to look at them. He pointed the gun at Aubrey.
"Hey Miss Lyles, having fun?" he sneered before pulling the trigger and killing Aubrey instantly. Ally whimpered and ducked her head as she was splattered with her friend's blood. He just looked at Ally, hesitated for a second, and left. Ally took one look at her friend's lifeless body, blue eyes staring up at her, and grabbed her hand. She didn't care if she was dead. She needed comfort in something.
Ally looked two tables down and saw Austin and Dez staring at her in shock. She knew they were thinking that they couldn't believe they had just watched Ally witness her friend's murder right beside her…and Ally had almost gone too. Ally caught Austin's eye and it immediately brought tears to her eyes; she had never seen him look so scared and vulnerable. She saw a tear slip down his cheek and knew he was probably thinking the same thing about her. Neither of them was able to comfort the other at that moment.
Ally watched in horror as Jake made his way over to the table that Austin and Dez were hiding under and looked under it. "Well, well, well. Look who we have here. It's the famous Austin Moon and his idiot of a friend. Who wants to go first?" he said evilly. "Eh, you can ginger," he decided before shooting Dez. Ally muffled a scream. "And now you can join him blondie," he said before shooting Austin three times in the chest. Ally watched in shock as Austin's body jerked at the impact of each bullet and then fell limp in a pool of blood beside Dez' body, his brown eyes staring into nothing, his blond hair coated in red.
Ally couldn't help it anymore. "NOOOO! AUSTIN!" she shrieked.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
"AAAAAHHHHH!" Ally screamed as she shot up in bed. Her body was covered in sweat and she was trembling from head to toe.
Her dad came running into her room. "Ally, honey, what's wrong!" he asked as he rushed to his daughter's side.
"It was a bad dream. It was horrible dad, Jake Fellows was shooting people at school and he killed my friends, inc-cluding Aust-t-tin right in f-front of m-me" she said shakily before breaking down into sobs.
He wrapped his arm around her shoulder. "It was just a dream honey. Your friends are fine, and Austin is absolutely fine."
"Dad, I need to see him now, just to make sure."
"Honey, it's three in the morning, Austin went home at nine. You'll see him in the morning."
"Then I'll just call him" she said before grabbing her cell phone off the nightstand.
"Al-" her dad started to say but was cut off.
"Daddy, it's just a phone call. Please, I need to at least hear his voice," She pleaded.
Her dad just sighed, nodded, and left the room.
Ally immediately dialled Austin's number. It rang four times and Ally started to freak out. Luckily, he picked up on the fifth ring.
"No Dez, I'm not ordering pizza for the zaliens that are staying at your house!" Austin said sleepily into the phone. Ally sighed in relief at the sound of his voice, very much alive, even when he was talking whack in his sleep.
"Austin, it's me. And what kind of dream were you having?" she said.
"Ally? It's three in the morning! And to answer your second question, apparently something about Dez having pet zaliens and ordering pizza for them. Why the need to call me at three am? Did you miss me that much?" he joked.
"I had a bad dream," Ally whimpered.
"Oh. What was it about Alls?" Austin asked softly.
"I watched you get shot three times and get killed by Jake Fellows when he randomly started killing people in our school's cafeteria, and you were lying in a pool of your own blood. Oh Austin, it was so real, I just had to make sure you were okay," she said, almost bursting into tears again.
"Jake Fellows? That Grade 12 idiot who's even dumber than Dez? He couldn't kill me even if he wanted to; he probably wouldn't even know how to shoot a gun! He would have to run me through with a knife instead over and over again until my insides c-"
"Not helping Austin! You're scaring me even more!" Ally cried.
"Oh, sorry Alls, I didn't mean to scare you. I'm half asleep; my brain doesn't work with my mouth. Anyways, I'm fine Ally, I'm not dead. Nothing happened to me, and nothing is going to happen to me, alright? Please don't cry, I hate seeing you cry. Well, in this case, hearing you cry."
"You promise?" she asked.
"I promise. Now get some sleep. Just because your flu bug is gone doesn't mean your cold is completely gone yet."
"Okay, Dr. Moon" she teased.
She heard him laugh softly on the other end. "Goodnight Ally, I'll call you tomorrow morning when I'm heading over."
"Okay. Goodnight Austin."
"What happened to Dr. Moon?" he joked.
"Oh, just go to sleep," she laughed. "And I'm sorry for waking you up for something stupid like a bad dream."
"Don't be, Ally, it's fine. If it was me having that dream about you, I would've gotten on the phone with you right away too, no matter what the time, just to make sure you were safe and sound."
Ally's eyes glittered with tears again, this time out of happiness. "What did I ever do to deserve you?" she asked.
"More like the other way around Alls," he laughed. "Goodnight."
"Night" she said before hanging up, feeling much better.
A/N: So, how was it? Good? Bad? Worth reading on? I hope so! I know there was nothing with Ally being sick in this chapter and Austin caring for her, but I decided that it would be a good change to have Ally call Austin during the night because of a dream she had, instead of them being joined at the hip throughout the whole story. I thought it would be cute, but that's your opinion! Let me know what you thought! Just click that review button! Thanks again and read and review!
