After munching on pizza and watching a movie, Austin and Ally decided to start working on their song. The two seated themselves side by side at the piano in the practice room. Ally took out her book to look for some inspiration and any lyrics she may have quickly scribbled down previously. She began to play and sung a few lyrics. "What do you think of that so far?" she asked.
To be honest, Austin didn't like it. "Meh," he said, "It's a bit too romantic-y, dontcha think? I mean we're just kids, Ally, what do we know about love?"
"Oh come on Austin," Ally protested, "people will really like it. Everyone loves a good love song now and then."
"Ally, our music is about having fun and loving music, not about getting all nervous and sweaty around being someone they're obsessing over."
"That's not what I was gonna write about! Love more than that, Austin!"
"Yeah and I suppose it'll be about your's and Dallas' love-dovey relationship! Ally do you know how awkward that is to be singing about a relationship you have with another guy? it has nothing to do with me! our music is supposed to be about us, stuff that we both relate to."
"you can't relate to a love song, Austin?"
Austin just stared at her. "It's just not my thing, Als. Besides do you really think what you and Dallas have would be called love? "
"It could be," she said shyly.
"Ally you're fifteen! Can you really picture yourself with Dallas forever?"
"what do you have against Dallas?" she started to get defensive.
"nothing!" Austin quickly responded, "It's just that, I think you deserve better. I mean Ally, you're really smart, determined and creative. And Dallas…well I guess he's good-looking and all since that's what everyone says…but other than that he doesn't really have much going on for him."
"you don't even know him!"
"I think i know him enough. I've seen him hanging out with you plenty of times. and Ally does he even consider the things that you like to do? I mean, you don't like the beach, you don't like go-karting, you get bored at scary movies, and yet he's taken you to do all those things."
"that's not the point," she defended, "the point is, is that we enjoy each other's company."
"whatever," austin said, "whatever makes you happy ally."
They sat in silence for a moment.
"Why can't we try it? Why can't we try writing a love song? I mean you've never even preformed a love song." Ally finally asked, breaking the silence.
"sure I have! Remember that time after I read your book!'
"Austin, that was 'NOT a love song'…"
"oh yeah…" austin scratched his head.
" besides don't you think you're fans may enjoy it!" then she mumbled, "i'm sure all those fangirls will like it…"
Austin's spirits lifted a bit after hearing that. Was that a bit of jealousy he heard in the tone of Ally's voice?
"Nope," Austin said, "still not doing it."
"you're so stubborn Austin Moon!" Ally huffed, "then what are we going to write a song about? 'Cause i'm out of ideas"
"how but friendship?" he suggested, "you know, enjoying the simple things in life? by just hanging out with friends and having a good time? like what we just did. Laughing together over a movie and pigging out on pizza."
Ally just stared at Austin for a moment, "I guess that could be alight," she finally gave in. To be honest, she thought it was a great idea; it was a fun idea, typical Austin.
Austin gave his signature smile in triumph. By 2 am they finished their song. And fell asleep in the practice room
