I didn't get many reviews on the last chapter ): I feel like you guys didn't like that one. But anyways, who's excited for the new Austin & Ally?! I am! The preview showed them holding hands! My Feels were everywhere! Ah! And then I saw a picture of the cast and Ross was on one knee, holding a flower. To Laura. I literally screamed my lungs off. okay enough chit chat.
Here you go-
Last time...
"No," He laughed. "The way that you are is fine." He put me down so by now we were in the living room. I tried not to blush. He started leaning in. I didn't know what to do so I leaned in too. "Just perfect." His lips were nearly an inch from mine that I could feel his breath, sending a chill down my spine. That's when the doorbell rang. We both jumped back. Austin and I stepped back, refusing to look at each other because if we did, we would instantly blush and start stuttering.
"I got it!" Dez jogged out from his room. He gazed at us for a second, but went back to opening the door. "Well Hi!" He chirped. He moved out of the way, and revealed a girl our age standing in the doorway. She had light blond wavey hair, a little bit of make-up, and a dazzling smile.
"Hi! I'm Ashley." She greeted. Well, this should be interesting.
"Um, hi." I returned. Ashley gave me a friendly smile and directed her attention to Austin, who's hand was still around my waist. I swear she beamed at the sight, but then shook it off.
"I'm Austin." Austin said. She smiled again and nodded.
"I know who you are. Duh. Everyone does." She laughed. Ashley clapped her hands together once she was done. "Well, since you all are new here, I thought I'd like to show you around for a little bit."
"Um, sure..." Austin agreed slowly. She skipped into the room and yanked Austin's hand from my waist. They left the room as quickly as my feelings for her morphed into pure hatred. I must have been growling because Dez stepped away, scared.
"Who was that chick?" Trish asked. She probably took a shower because her hair was wet.
"Ashley. And Ally already doesn't like her. She practically shot daggers at the girl." Dez said. He sat down onto the couch.
"She said she wanted to show us around. I guess she only meant Austin." I plopped down onto the counch next to Dez. I sighed heavily.
"Well, let's not let that skanky bitch ruin our fun here. Get up, lazy bones," She pulled both me and Dez's up to our feet and grabbed her purse. "It's Hollywood, California, people! Let's partay!" I rolled my eyes and we all went down to the lobby.
As we waited for Harrison, someone bumped into me. I turned to see who it was. It was a guy our age. He had light blonde hair that perfectly flopped in one direction, kind, warm hazel eyes and a killer smile.
"Oh my God, I'm so sorry." He apologized. I smiled and shook my head.
"It's totally cool." I assured him. He nodded and laughed.
"I'm Ryan." He held out his hand. Ryan looked at me up and down. I tried not to blush. "You from Miami?"
"Yeah," I answered, confused. "How'd you know?"
Ryan pointed at my bracelet. "It says, 'Miami Girl'"
I giggled nervously. Wow. I am so stupid. "Right, I knew that."
"You're funny," He laughed. "And, you're pretty cute." I blushed furiously.
"T-thanks."
"So, you going to explore around?" I nodded.
"Yeah, my friends and I were going to walk around. Well, most of them, anyway." I looked down, thinking about Austin earlier.
"What do you mean 'most'?" Ryan asked. I sighed.
"My other friend kinda ditched us for this girl. Well, I guess he didn't mean to. She kinda tore his arm off trying to get him out of the room." I said.
"Well, that's not nice."
"Tell me about it." I turned to see Trish and Dez walking towards me and Ryan.
"Hey, who's your cute new friend?" Trish asked eyeing Ryan.
"Trish, this is Ryan. Ryan, this is Trish and Dez." I introduced them. She shook hands with Ryan and he and Dez exchanged that weird 'Sup, Dude.' thing that guys do. "He guessed that we're not from around here."
"Can I show you guys around? I promise I won't ditch you." He winked at me. I opened my mouth to respond but Trish beat me to it.
"Yes! We'd like that." She shoved me towards him. I fell into his arms. "I know Ally would like that." Trish mumbled as she turned to get into the car.
"Well, hi there." Ryan looked down at me. And I shyly smiled. I regained my balance. "Shall we?" He gestured to the door and I slid inside.
The first stop Ryan suggested was the Chinese Theater. It was incredible. The structure of the building was just amazing. Next we went to see the Walk of Fame. We took pictures with a ton of stars. On the ground. Not the actual actors and actresses, because most of them were, well, dead.
"Oh my god." Trish gawked. She nearly fell to her knees. "Rodeo Drive!" She squealed and pulled Dez with her. Trish was in heaven right now. Ryan and I tried to catch up but we lost them in the crowd.
"And then there were two..." I said quietly. Ryan laughed.
"You know you never told me your name." He told me. How could I've forgotten to tell him my own name.
"Ally." I replied, simply.
"That's a pretty name," He complimented. "It suits you."
"Thanks." I smiled.
"Okay, there is one place you just have to see when you're in Hollywood." Ryan announced. I looked at him confused.
"What's that?" I asked him.
"Come on, Miami Girl," His mouth formed a smile and he took my hand and we literally ran to the spot.
"The famous-" I cut him off. I was in total awe. I've always wanted to see it in person. The big white letters standing on the moutain side.
"Hollywood Sign." I looked around and people were taking people pictures. I took out my camera and pulled Ryan next to me. We smiled as the camera flashed.
"Ally?" A familiar voice called out. I turned and saw Austin walking towards us.
"Oh, hey Austin."
"You're friends with Austin Moon?" Ryan asked. I turned back to him and nodded.
"Yes. She's my songwriter." Austin informs him. His songwriter? That's all I am?
"Just your songwriter?" I asked him, hurt in my eyes. He realized what he said.
"Oh God, Ally, no no, I mean, you're more than that you're-" Someone cut him off.
"She's what, babe?" Ashley clung herself to Austin's arm. Batting her fake eyelashes. She never gave me as much as the sideways glance. I rolled my eyes.
"She's my best friend, Ashley." He tells her. Wasn't he supposed to be telling me that? Not her? Why would she care? Unless... Oh no.
"Okay, Austy," She leaned up and kissed him on the cheek. They're going out already?
"So, um, Alls. Who's your new friend?" I should ask him that same question, because she's not the same person I saw/met this morning.
I took Ryan and pulled him next to me again. "This is Ryan. He's showing me around because, well, someone didn't take me with them." I intentionally meant it towards Ashley.
Ashley rolled her eyes. "C'mon, Austy. Let's go. Clearly she doesn't appreciate us being here." She turned and squealed. "Oh! The paparazzi! We have to go tell them the good news." Again, for the second time today, Ashley took Austin away from me. That little-
"Really? He let Ashley Benworth show him around?" Ryan said, interrupting my thoughts.
"Who's she?" I looked at him. He took out his phone from his pocket.
"Ashley Benworth. Hollywood's latest 'it' girl and upcoming, social, atttention hogging, bitch. Well, to me she already is." Ryan explained.
"I can see that."
"She lures every new guy in Hollywood and manipulating them to treat her like a princess, at the same time, turning them into jerks you see on the news and magazines." He adds.
"You seem to know a lot about Ashley." I told him. He shrugged.
"Well, I knew her before she turned into," He pointed to her. Ashley and Austin were posing for pictures in front of the cameras. "That."
I laughed. "C'mon, let's go and see the rest of Hollywood, if your day hasn't been ruined already." Ryan suggested.
"No, my day wasn't ruined. It was just brought down a little, but not completely crushed by that insignificant, two-faced, Ashley." I made a disgusted face. Ryan laughed.
Later that day...
"Thanks for today, Ryan," I kissed his cheek. "I really had fun."
"No problem. It was great meeting you, Trish and Dez, even though they kinda ditched us on Rodeo Drive." We both laughed at the thought. "So, Alls, I'll text you?" I nodded. No one calls me Alls except for Trish and my dad. And Austin. I opened up the door and waved bye to him.
"Hey Ally, how was the Hollywood sign?" Trish asked when I walked in.
"It was great." I sighed. My thoughts wondered off.
"Well, from the look on your face it seems like you had fun with Ryan." Dez nudged me. I rolled my eyes and smiled.
"Yeah, it was incredible. Until," I sat down in one of the high seats of the island table in the kitchen. "I ran into Austin and Ashley."
"The chick that basically kidnapped him?"
"Yup," I made a popping sound for the letter 'p'. "Appearantly, they're dating now."
"Oh, Ally. I'm so sorry." Trish hugged me. I shrugged.
"Eh, it's alright. It's all for publicity, right?"
"Yeah."
There was a knock on the door. Trish spun on her heels and opened the door. Flashes of light bombarded us and I stood up to cover up Trish and Dez does the same.
"Guys, c'mon. I gotta go inside my house. Just leave." Austin's voice echoed through all the blinding cameras. Someone moved us out of the way and closed the door. "Phew. Oh, hey guys."
We all just stared at him. "What?"
"Nothing." Trish's voice showed no emotion. Dez continued to play with his camera.
"Wasn't that so cool?" Austin exclaimed.
"What was?" I asked him, not even looking in his direction.
"This!" He threw his hands up in the air. "Our new lives! It's so awesome."
"Maybe your new life. Austin, you're the only one in the real spotlight. We're the ones that are stuck behind the curtains, barely even get recognized." I insisted.
"Well, it's not my fault! Jimmy wanted me to come-"
"You?" Trish snapped. "Austin, he wanted ALL of us here. Not just you, you know."
"Yeah, I do know." He looked hurt. "Ally, you know how important this is to me."
"Austin, I do. I really do. This is your dream. But it's not always about you." I stood up from the chair. "This is exactly what I was talking about. Fame is already getting to you. You promised you wouldn't change. You promised." I walked into my room and slammed the door.
I changed into my Miami High sweatpants and a purple crop top. Then I went out onto the balcony and stared up into the sky.
"Ally?"
I looked over and the balcony right next to mine was Ryan's. I smiled and walked closer.
"Hey, I didn't know you were staying right next door." I leaned on the railing.
"Yeah, so has Austin come home yet?" He asked. I sighed.
"He just got here. With a whole attitude."
"Oh no, it's starting." Ryan laughed.
"Ally? Can I talk to you?" Austin's voice travels from the other side of the room. I glanced over my shoulder.
"I should go." I told Ryan. He nodded and waved. "What?" I brushed past Austin to sit on my bed.
"I'm sorry," He started.
"If that's all you're here to say-"
"No. I really am sorry Ally. For earlier." Austin took a seat right next to me. "You're more than just a songwriter to me. You're my best friend."
"You already made that clear." I reminded him.
"No. I mean, you mean so much more to me. Without you, I-I wouldn't even be here. I-I wouldn't be who I am today if it weren't for you." Austin said sincerely. I smiled slightly.
"Austin-"
"I'm serious Ally." He took my hand. "You're my best friend, and I really don't want to lose you."
"That's sweet, Austin." I hugged him. We stayed like that for a few minutes.
"Am I interrupting something?" Ashley commented from my doorframe. We pulled apart and Austin jumped up. I looked at him weird.
"No!" He insisted. "We were just...um...Hey Ashley."
"Smooth." I mumbled. I pretended to stretch and yawn. "Well, it's getting late, now if you don't mind, Austin. Ashley. I really must go to sleep." I pushed them out of the room. Ashley glared at me and stormed off. Austin lingered on for a few seconds. Before I completely shut the door, Austin leaned his head in.
"Are we okay now?" His eyes pleaded. I closed my eyes and sighed.
"Yeah, you are. I can't stay mad at you forever, or even for a long time." I smiled. I toughed the necklace he gave me. "But don't forget who you really are and why you gave me this necklace."
"Of course not." He smiled. "Goodnight Ally."
"Goodnight Austin."
I feel like this is a boring chapter. I didn't really have any great inspirations for this chapter. This one is more of a filler for the story. I promise it will get better.
