Ally's POV
My eyes fluttered open, I sat up and looked around. Everyone was still asleep, and it was 11:30. I sighed deeply, thinking about the fun we all had just hours ago. I removed Austin's arm from around me and tiptoed towards the kitchen, making sure to dodge the bodies on the floor. I grabbed the pancake batter and retrieved a bowl from the cabinets. I began pouring the contents into the bowl, and started stirring it. I began humming one of Austin's new tunes Heart beat.
15 minutes into my happy humming I saw a mess of blonde hair slowly rise up. It was Austin, and of course he had to be nosy and come see what I was doing.
"Good morning Al's, wha- PANCAKES!?" He yelled jumping up and down in excitement. This woke the others in an instant. Looking around frantically I guess making sure nothing was wrong. I glared at Austin shaking my head and rolling my eyes. I finished the pancakes placing 2 on each plate and topping it off with whip cream and strawberries. Then I sat down glasses next to each plate, and poured orange juice in them. A loud knock at the front door startled me, I yelled for Austin so that he could grab it while I continued fixing the food. About 2 minutes later Austin came down. He opened the door to his neighbor Lucy, she was smiling big and holding a bag filled with groceries.
"Hey Austin, you're parents are gonna be out of town a little longer than expected so I brought this bag of stuff over for you, you know so you can eat," she said.
"Oh thanks Mrs. Johnson," he said.
A few moments later I heard the door close, and Austin came over to take his spot at the table. "Wow Al's you really went all out with this, smiley face pancakes, bacon, orange juice… Thanks," I smiled also becoming fond of my accomplishment. I sat down next to Austin and waited for the others to arrive. Just moments later the other came into the room looking at the food in awe.
"Oh my gosh, thanks Ally, I thought we were just gonna go get McDonald's or something," Laura said, smiling.
"Oh, it was nothing," I said grinning from ear to ear.
"So I need to go to the mall, and you boys got to choose what we did yesterday, that means that us girls get to choose were we go, therefore meaning, were going to the mall," Trish said narrowing her eyes at them.
"Why do we have to go?" Asked Austin raising an eyebrow.
"Cause I said so, and I know you guys'll come anyway, right Dez?" Trish asked throwing him a glare.
"Yeah, guys we should go to the mall," Dez said frantically.
Everyone finished their breakfast silently and went their separate ways. I hopped in the shower, while Dez emptied out his backpack filled with water from his Ice Sculpture collection, Trish searched for an outfit to wear, and Laura did the dishes, Ross was downstairs talking with her. And Austin, I had no idea where he was.
After my shower I walked downstairs looking for him. "Anyone seen Austin?" I asked retrieving the brush from my bag. "Yeah I have, he's somewhere in this house," Trish said sarcastically. I rolled my eyes and headed upstairs, beginning to hear the faint sound of sexyback By Justin Timberlake.
"I'm bringin' sexy back
Them other boys don't know how to act
I think it's special-"
There he was singing sexyback into a brush, I tried to hold in my laughter I really did. But come on singing sexyback into brush while dancing. It's hilarious. I burst into a fit of laughter falling to my knees and noticing Austin's embarrassed expression.
"Ally uh how long have you been there?" he asked folding his arms across his chest.
"Oh I just came in, I was still laughing at a joke someone told me," I lied.
"Phew, alright," he said relaxing.
"I'm bringin` sexy back,
Them other boys don't know how to act -"
I stopped and continued laughing. He glared at me and folded his arms across his chest. "Okay, yeah it was kinda funny," he said giving in. We finished our laughing fest and continued doing what needed to be done before we left the house. By the time we left the house it was already 2:30, I was surprised we finished that quickly, especially with the mess we had around the house.
Austin's POV
How did this even happen, I've been dragged into about a million stores, I'm holding a billion bags, and I'm not even mad about it. Ally was happy, and I couldn't help myself from being happy too. And the guys didn't really seem bothered about it.
"Alright well I'm done shopping, we can leave now," Trish announced.
I smiled cheering silently in my mind. "So what are we gonna do now?" I asked.
Ally shrugged; "Well we just picked, so now its your turn," she said.
"You know, I don't know what we can do now, but I know what we can do at 2:00 tonight," I said as a smile appeared in my face.
"And what is that," Trish asked folding her arms across her chest.
"Forever Fit* stays open 24 hours," I said smiling, "I wanna go there tonight," Trish glared at me, "You really think we wanna stand around sweaty guys, working out all stinky, some not even that stinky, and some really really hot with bulging muscles, on second thought the gym doesn't seem so bad," she said. Ally just shrugged as if she didn't mind what we did.
"So what are we gonna do for the next 9 hours?" Laura asked. I thought for a moment, "A night time dip!" I thought smiling at my smartness. Ally furrowed her eyebrows "Are you talking about chip dip, or a swimming dip?" she asked. "Well, both sound really great, but I'm talking about swimming, we could go in the pool in my backyard," I said.
"I mean…I guess that would be kind of fun," Laura said smiling.
"Yeah, I'd get to wear the new swimsuit I bought," Trish added.
"I guess were swimming then!" I exclaimed.
After we went and retrieved our swimsuits from our homes, we headed back to my house. I was really excited to see how this would go.
Ally's POV
"Ally come on just grab this one! Austin would love it," Trish said. I was thinking about the conversation we had, and why I actually listened to her. I was wearing a red bikini there were laces on the bottoms so that you could tie them to make it fit perfectly. I heard a knock at the door;
"Ally its me," Trish said.
I opened the door slowly; "Hey," I said waving nervously. She walked in; "Ally you look GOREGOUS!" she said smiling. I smirked suddenly feeling less nervous. "Here let me put a little makeup on you," she said grabbing the eyeliner and eye shadow. The eye shadow was light pink, and she drew a thin line across my eyelid. Completing the look with light pink lip gloss. "Alright all done, I'll see you downstairs," she said turning around and walking away. I got up and looked in the mirror once more, I smiled fixing the curls in my hair. I grabbed a button up shirt that I got from my mom when I was younger, It went down to mid-thigh. Then I grabbed a towel and headed downstairs.
Austin's POV
I looked into the pool, the water looked awfully freezing. I sat down slowly sliding myself into it, I was right, it was awfully cold. Ross, Dez ,Laura ,and Trish all joined just moments later. Then Ally came out, her songbook in one hand, and a glass of water in the other.
"What are you doing?" I asked getting out of the pool.
"Oh, well I'm just writing a song," she said shrugging at me.
"Why aren't you getting in the pool?" I questioned folding my arms across my chest.
"…Well, you see I don't really-" she was cut off by Trish yanking her back into the house.
I turned around and got back in the pool. Swimming over to Dez, Ross, and Laura who were having a conversation.
"Hey guys what's up" I said.
"Oh, nothing…Just talking," Dez said smiling.
We talked for a good 5 minutes until Ally and Trish returned. Ally came and sat on the edge of the pool, dipping her feet in and wincing at how cold it was. She wrapped the towel tighter around her shoulders. Trish crept up behind her grasping the towel tightly and yanking it off her.
"Trish!?" she exclaimed standing up.
My eyes widened, and my jaw dropped. Since when did Ally wear bikini's? Last time I checked she wasn't even into one pieces. She looked absolutely amazing.
"Are you..Uh.. gonna ….get in now?" I stuttered, she smiled and shook her head, "I mean, it's really cold," she said shrugging. "And I don't really know how to swim, what if I drown, If I drown I wont ever be able to see my family again…No what if there's a mysterious hiding shark in there that's only comi- Aaah!" Trish pushed Ally in the water she then got in herself, laughing loudly.
"So what do we do now?" Ross asked
I shrugged looking around for something that we could use. "I don't know…lets do a contest, whoever can stay under water the longest gets…I don't know…Something," I said.
"Alright I'm in," Ally said smiling.
I raised my eyebrows, I was surprised she would agree to something without even giving it a thought. Everyone else agreed and we all went under. Dez was the first one up, then Laura, then Ross, then Trish, then Me. Ally popped up cheering in victory; "Woo! I did it, now I get….Something," she said. I laughed at her reaction.
We hung out in the swimming pool for a little while longer, and went inside at 10:00. We all took turns getting in the shower and by the time we were done with that it was 11:00, we would be able to leave in just a few hours.
Ally's POV
Boy was I happy. I beat someone at something! And now all I had to do was await the prize that came along with it.
"So what's my surprise is it money is it pickles what is it what is it," I questioned frantically.
Austin laughed and walked closer to me. "Alright, you want your surprise?" he asked grinning. I nodded jumping in excitement. He put a hand on my shoulder and looked me in my eyes. He leaned in closer, and closer, and closer, until we were just inches away. Then, he pressed his lips against mine. I felt a spark, excitement rushed through my body, and this is what I've been waiting for. We pulled apart, I smiled at him nervously. 'Wow, I wonder why he did that,' I thought.
You've just been Cliff Hung! Oooh!
