I don't own Austin and Ally.
So this chapter is going to be pretty short, sorry. I promise the next chapter won't take so long to be updated, and it will be longer.
Chapter 13, Ally's POV:
Austin comes down off of the stage and moves toward me. I run up to him and give him a hug. He wraps his arms around me and we just sit there like that for a minute until I let go and smile up at him,
"Another great performance by the amazing Austin Moon!" I say.
He laughs, "Performing a song written by the amazing Ally Dawson! We make a great team."
"Yes, we do," I say. We just stand there for a moment in awkward silence. I begin to stare into his brown eyes, and all I see is fear. He wants to say something, but it won't come out.
"Ally…I…" He begins.
"Austin?"
"…I, uh, think we should get going now…"
I know that's not what he really wanted to say. Why won't he just tell what's bothering him? The curiosity is killing me! I want to yell at him, to beg him to just tell me, but instead I just say "Okay" and we go say good bye to Trish and Dez.
The drive home is really awkward. Austin keeps glancing over at me and opening his mouth like he's going to say something, but nothing comes out. He starts to mumble things at himself. It seems like he's tearing himself up inside, and it hurts me to see him like that. He's my best friend, he's always there for me when I'm upset, and I him.
I try to start a conversation. Maybe then he'll finally open up.
"So, tonight was fun, right?" I say.
"Yup…"
We're at my house now, but I'm not getting out just yet…
"Is there something you want to say?"
"Uh…no…"
I suddenly burst, "Oh c'mon Austin! There's obviously something bothering you, and I want to know so bad, I just can't take it anymore! Why won't you tell me?"
"I don't know, I just…I don't know! Okay?! Just stop asking me about it!" He yells last part harshly.
Tears begin to sting my eyes. I get out of the car quickly and slam the door. As soon as I get into the house I run to my room and slam my face into my pillow. The tears begin to stream out. I'm so angry at him, and I'm not even sure why. I guess I just feel insulted that he'd tell Trish and not me. That he would yell at me like he did. I'm just so frustrated and confused!
Austin's POV:
I can't believe that just happened. I yelled harshly at Ally, I made her cry! I didn't mean to yell, I wasn't even angry at her. I took out all of my anger toward myself out on her. She probably hates me now. I hate me too…
I pick up the phone and call Trish. She picks up after a couple of rings,
"Hello?" she says.
"Hey Trish, I have a problem," I say.
"What now?"
"I yelled at Ally and made her cry and now I'm sure she must hate me!" I say quickly.
"You made her cry?! What'd you say?"
"Well, she asked why I wouldn't tell her what was 'bothering' me, and told her to stop asking me about it, that I didn't know," I explain.
"Oh…"
"What do I do?!"
"Easy, you just apologize and tell her what's bothering you."
"I can't! Every time I try to say it, nothing comes out!"
"Then practice it with a picture of her or something! I have to go Austin. Good luck!"
And with that, she hangs up.
Please review! :)
