Chapter 6

Hey guys! 2 chapters in one night! I hope you like them! I don't own Austin and Ally.

Austin's P.O.V.

I sigh as I fall back on my bed. What am I going to do about Ally?

"Cheer up Austin, do you want some of my gingerbread?" he asks, pulling a huge gingerbread house out of his backpack.

"No, I just need some way to show Ally I'm not going to break her heart. How can I do that?" I sigh.

"You need to think of things you two have in common"

"Well, she works in the Melody Diner, so she must love music"

"What if you write her a song?" Dez says.

"That's a good idea" I say sitting up from my bed. It surprises me every time he comes up with a good idea, since it doesn't happen that often. "But I can write songs. Kira always wrote them, and I don't think she will want to help me write another song ever again, let alone one to impress a different girl" I sigh again, falling back.

"You need to try and get closer to her. Find out some more stuff about her, that might make it easier"

And then I got the perfect idea.

Ally's P.O.V.

When I wake up the next morning, I dress in my uniform and head off or work. Only stopping to say goodbye to my dad. As soon as I enter the diner, I notice someone new standing at the counter. A guy wearing the uniform, his ginger hair making him look familiar.

"I'm so happy you decided to replace Trish, Dezy Cakes" Mindy smiles as she walks away from the kitchen.

"Hey, I'm Ally" I say as I get to the counter.

"Dez" he says with a massive grin.

"So, do you want me to train him?" I ask Mindy, instantly knowing the answer. I don't know why I asked in the first place.

"No, I'm going to do that" she smiles, putting her arm around his shoulders and squeezing him tightly. Dez's eyes growing massive, mouthing for help, but I just stand there laughing. I've never seen someone so smitten for someone then Mindy is for Dez. But I think Dez would rather be as far away as he can from her.

Austin's P.O.V.

My plan was perfect. Get Dez the job and he can find stuff out about Ally, I'm sure I could write the perfect song to make her change her mind about me. I waited in the mall for a while till Dez signalled that Ally was on her break and I could sneak in.

"So…"

"So, this job is boring. I cant sing, but I love it when someone orders the Raspberry Robot" he says, doing a small robot dance.

"I meant, so… what have you found out about Ally?"

"Oh. She does an amazing song about onion rings" he smiles. I quickly note it down on a napkin.

"What does she like in a guy?" I ask.

"I don't know. I'll ask her when she gets off her break"

Ally's P.O.V.

As soon as I walked back into the restaurant, I spotted him. Sitting in a booth with Dez, I instantly knew they were up to something. Austin didn't see me, but he left soon after I came in. Dez walks back to the counter where I'm cleaning.

"Hey Ally"

"Hey Dez"

"Good break?"

"Yea, pretty good. Has Mindy finished training you yet?"

"Yep. I tried to get it over with as soon as possible." he says. I don't really blame him.

"Great. So you don't mind taking this over to table 2" I say, passing him a plate of Mac and Cheese. He walks over to the completely wrong booth and starts singing to them. I just stand there laughing at him, but he doesn't realise he's done anything wrong.

"So Ally. What do you like in a guy?" he says when he arrives back at the counter.

"Why?" I ask, still laughing as I go over to the table he handed the plate to. I apologize for the mistake and hand it the right table.

"Just interested" he smiles, but I know something is going on.

"Well, I do like a really tanned guy, almost orange" I joke, but Dez writes it down on a napkin. "And when a guy leaves the gym and is all sweaty, I love that" I smile as he writes it down. I cant believe he's actually falling for it.

"Great! Tell Mindy I quit" he says before rushing out of the diner, almost falling over. I just stand there laughing, because I know something strange is going to happen soon.

Austin's P.O.V.

As soon as I saw the list Dez got, I was pretty confused. It wasn't exactly what I was expecting, but it was worth a shot to get Ally to like me. I placed down my guitar and scribbled down the last notes of the song I had been working on. Rushing straight to the store and buying a bottle of fake tan.

As soon as I got home, I covered my whole skin with it. Shocked when I looked in the mirror, I was bright orange! Just like Ally wanted. Now I had to be sweaty. I always hated getting sweaty, but it was for Ally.

I ran around my whole house, but it wasn't working, so I ran around the park near by instead. The sunshine beating down on me helped a lot, and soon I was sweating so much there were patches on my shirt. Perfect!

Me and Dez walked straight to the Melody Diner, everyone staring at me as I walked in.

Ally's P.O.V.

I burst out laughing when I saw him. His skin neon orange, and the patches of sweat on his shirt looked disgusting. But he actually fell for it!

He walked into the Diner, and everyone was staring as he sat down on the piano. They probably all thought he was crazy.

"I wanna dedicate this song to the coolest girl in the diner. Ally"

"Your perfect, but not to perfect

You're the pad of butter on my pancake stack

You're a rollercoaster ride

And I feel like, throwing up

Ally, please go out with me

Something bout onion rings…

rings…."

Austin's P.O.V.

As soon as I finish singing, I instantly regret it. I should have taken more time to write it, but I was just so excited to see her, it was rubbish. I'm such an idiot. Why cant I write songs?!

"Well, at least you look good" she laughs as she walks up to the piano.

"I'm an idiot" I sigh, slamming my head on the piano keys.

"It was sweet. Well, kind of" she adds, still laughing.

"So, you'll go out with me?"

"I'm not going out with an orange" she jokes.

"But, Dez said you liked this look" I say as we walk to the counter.

"Yea, well Dez needs to realise when someone's joking"

"So you don't like guys that are bright orange or sweaty?"

"Defiantly not" she laughs. "I just wanted to see if you'd fall for it"

"That's mean" I say, glaring at Dez for falling for it in the first place but I cant help but laugh to, neither can Dez, or anyone else in the room. She really got me. "As an apology, will you go out with me?"

"I'm sorry Austin, but its still a no" she sighs.

"How can I make it a yes?"

"There is no way. Look, I dated a guy once after he'd just broken up with someone. And after about a month of us dating, he got back together with his ex. And it broke me heart. I don't want to risk that again"

"But I'm not like that Ally. I promise. I would never even dream of breaking your heart."

"I just don't want to risk it. Sorry Austin" she says, walking over to a booth and taking someone's order.

I cant give up now. I know I can change that no into a yes, I just need a new song, I not to look like an orange this time.

Hey guys! So how are you liking it so far?

I really hope you enjoyed this chapter, and I will update soon.

Till next time

Ready, Set, Rock!
