Disclaimer: I don't own anything
A/N: I know I haven't written for a few days. I was battling an infection in my gums (not fun) but I'm getting over it now so on with the show.
Austin was sitting in his kitchen with Trish, Dez, and his parents. They were looking at travel plans.
"Well Austin we can get to NYC one of two ways. We can go by train which will take about a day or by plane which will take a few hours." Trish said.
Austin's mom looked over his shoulder and placed her hand on his shoulder. She studied the plans.
"Austin honey if we take the train, you'll have more time to prepare but I'm guessing you'd rather fly."
"Yes mom I would love to fly and get up there as quick as I can." Austin said.
"I will see that we have a car to meet us at the airport." Trish said.
Austin POV:
Hold on Ally I'm coming.
"Hey Austin what is the plan anyway?" Dez asked.
"Easy we arrive in New York, go to the hotel, I perform my new song and Trish says she'll make it so Ally sees the performance and hopefully I can convince Ally to come back to Miami."
"Austin she may not want to leave school." His mom told him.
"I know mom but I got to try. I have, got to try." Austin replied.
"You dated the right girl from the beginning; we wouldn't be in this mess, now." Trish told him.
Trish give him a break book us 4 tickets to fly from Miami into JFK or La Guardia, because I'm coming with you." Austin's mom said.
"You are?" Austin asked.
"Austin it's New York City." His mom told him.
"I know I performed there on New Year's Eve, This time we are going to have a hotel and transportation to the gig, right Trish?" Austin asked.
"Austin I'm doing what I can, ok we are going to fly into JFK and have a car pick us up. I'm working on getting us a place to stay and Austin you're going to perform on the Today Show." Trish told him.
Austin walked outside for a few minutes and looked north.
Austin P.O.V.
North that's where Ally is, where I got to go. How could I have been so stupid? How could I not see it, I knew she was hurt and felt betrayed and used, but I had forgotten that I asked Kira to be my girlfriend.
But then that Kiss, I knew right then and there Ally was perfect. But she wanted me to be happy so she sacrificed her happiness. Now I'm not happy I'm miserable and want to be in New York so bad. Ally I will get to you somehow.
In New York City….
Ally sat alone in her dorm room and as she often did found herself thinking of Austin.
Ally P.O.V.
Austin I love him I know that I do, but on the other hand he used me, he betrayed me. I know I should get on with my life but I can't. There is only one option, I can't take the chance again, I must put walls up around my heart, so high that they never come down.
I will not let myself get used, and betrayed again. I will always love Austin, but he's out of my reach. I mean who am I kidding girls like me don't get happily ever after.
Then Ally started to sing a song she had heard on the radio as a little girl.
"I hear you're taking the town again
Having a good time with all your good time friends
I don't think that you think of me
You're on your own now and I'm alone and free
I know that I should get on with my life
But a life lived without you could never be right
As long as the stars shine down from the heavens
As long as the rivers run to the sea
I'll never get over you getting over me
I try to smile so the hurt won't show
Tell everybody I was glad to see you go
But the tears just won't go away (won't go away)
Don't need a smile on me
Looks like it's here to stay
I know that I oughta find someone new
But all I find is myself always thinking of you
As long as the stars shine down from the heavens
As long as the rivers run to the sea
I'll never get over you getting over me
oh, no matter what I do
It's not the lifetime to live through
I can't go on like this I need your touch You're the only one I'll ever love ohh
And as long as the stars shine down from the heavens
As long as the rivers run to the sea
I'll never get over you getting over me I'll never get over you getting over
Never get over you getting over
I'll never get over you getting over me."
Ally thought about the lyrics and thought to herself. The one line should be changed to I know you don't think of me. He is probably hanging with Dez going on dates with Kira and when he does a song she's right there to cheer him on. I knew him before he was big and cheered him on from the get go.
Ally looked in the mirror, and didn't like what she saw. "No wonder Austin didn't want me. I was a fool to think he'd ever give me a second thought, I'm boring, ugly and drab. Kira is pretty, dresses fantastic, isn't boring. I mean I was a cloud watcher-that's lame. Well it looks like another night of crying myself to sleep."
Ally walked over to her bed and looked at a picture of her, Trish, Dez, and Austin.
And she said out loud "Give it up Ally, you lost…Not like I ever had a chance. Austin wherever you are tonight, whatever you're doing, whoever you're with, I hope you're happy." As Ally started to say this tears started to roll down her cheeks this was how she put herself to bed every night. Reminding herself she never had a snowball's chance in Hell, and hoping Austin was happy. She loved him that much.
