Wednesday, April 10th, 2013 - Ally's house
Ally's POV
I sat up in my bed, after turning off my blaring alarm clock, and walked into my bathroom. My dad was still making me go to school, even though Austin's performance was tonight. It does help that we got out at 11 today, because of teacher meeting stuff. Austin's coming with me because he wants to say hi to everyone.
Anyway, I took a quick shower and put on a gray, teal, and black striped shirt, and a pair of denim shorts. I curled my hair, and then slipped on a few bracelets (1). I walked downstairs and grabbed an apple from the fruit bowl. My dad was nowhere in sight, he probably had to go in early or something. I leaned on the counter, in front of my laptop, scrolling through Tweeter (2). Being Austin Moon's girlfriend had its perks, I had almost 600,000 followers, although it's nowhere near the amount Austin has. I replied to a few people, and tweeted about how excited I was for the concert. I re-tweeted one of Austin's tweets, it was a picture of him and me, Trish had taken it, from a bonfire we had the night before. I was sitting in his lap, in one of his giant sweatshirts. One of his arms were around my waist, the other hand was intertwined with mine. My other arm was holding a s'more. I grinned at the caption.
"Bonfire with my team and this beauty:)\ Good to be home for a while! dezmister Trish95 allydawson"
The doorbell rang, and I set quickly exited out of the window, so I go answer the door. It was most likely Austin. When I opened the door, I was right, Austin stood there, looking down at his phone, but he had looked up when I answered the door.
"Hey," I said. He leaned down to kiss my cheek.
"Hey. Ready to go?" I nodded.
"Almost," I leaned down by the door, where my gray Keds (3) sat. I quickly put them on. "My bag and phone are in the kitchen, I'll meet you in the car." I walked in there, spotting my bad on the island. I put it on and grabbed my phone off the counter, locking the front door on my way out. Austin and I launched into a goofy conversation during the drive there, so we were laughing as we were walking into the school. Once we got to my locker, our laughter had died down.
"So," Austin said, "you wanna go out for lunch after school, since we don't have lunch today."
I grabbed my pre-cal binder, "Sure, but don't you have sound check or something?"
"Oh, yeah, right after, too. How about we just go to a drive through?"
"That's fine." I said, while closing my locker. Austin grabbed my hand, and walked me down to my class, he had to follow his schedule, even though he's out of school for the rest of the year. That meant we wouldn't have any classes today, since we only have 1st, 2nd, and 7th hour. I don't get it either, just some stupid half day schedule stuff.
*LINE BREAK* Austin's POV – sound check
Ally sat at the base of the stage, dangling her feet of the edge as I rehearsed, I was strumming my guitar to the tune of Not a Love Song. I was excited for tonight, because I was replacing a song tonight, just for her. Instead of singing I got that rock n roll, I would be singing the song I wrote with Ed, Timeless (4). It was going to be a surprise for Ally, so I was pretty excited.
I finished the song and hopped down off the stage, standing in front of Ally. She was writing in her book. "Ally," I waved my hand in front of her face. She looked up, "I'm done."
"Okay," she said, and hopped down. I smiled and grabbed her hand. We walked towards the door, I was taking her home, because she wanted to 'change'. As we were walking we passed Taylor, who was coming in for her sound check.
"Hey guys!" she said.
"Hey Taylor," Ally said. Taylor gave her a hug and whispered something I couldn't make out. Ally gave her a look of confusion before her face lit up.
"Oh yeah!" she exclaimed, before giving Taylor a look of guilt. "I actually forgot about it, but I'll read it when I get home, I promise!" Taylor nodded, before walking up to the stage.
"What was that about?" I asked.
"Huh?" she turned her head to me, "Oh, it was nothing, just…girl talk." I could tell she was lying about the 'girl talk', but I brushed it off.
When we got home, we walked in her house. Going up to her room, she immediately went to her closet.
"What should I wear?" she asked. I put my hands on her shoulders, leaning down to her ear.
"It doesn't matter, you look beautiful in everything," I placed a kiss on her head, before lowering my arms to her stomach. She turned her head to give me a look. "It's true," I shrugged. She turned in my arms, wrapping hers around my neck.
"Thank you," she said, a hint of a blush on her cheeks. "I suppose I should wear something red? I mean it is the Red Tour." I rolled my eyes.
"If you insist," I shrugged. She turned back around and rummaged through her closet for a minute. She pulled out a simple red dress (5).
"I'll be right back." She walked into her bathroom, coming back out in the dress after a few minutes. I looked towards the clock, 3:11, it read.
"We still have a couple hours, what do you want to do?" She lit up, before taking my hand. She dragged me to the living room, over to her grand piano that sat in the corner.
"I actually finished a new song, do you want to hear it?" I grinned at her, and nodded. She smiled back at me, and placed her hands on the keys, "when you're on your own, drowning alone, and you need a rope that, can pull you in, someone will throw it…" (6) When she finished the song, I had the biggest smile on my face.
"Ally, that was amazing!"
"Really?" she asked.
"Of course, you know, it almost sounded like a duet…" I trailed off, hoping she would get the hint. She did.
"Austin, no, you know I have stage fright."
"Yeah I know," I sighed. "But, Als, you know your way too talented to fail, right?" She rolled her eyes at me.
"So, the first chord is an E…"
*LINE BREAK* Ally's POV
Before I knew it, I was standing in a sound booth, where I got clear view of Austin performing. He was having a ball, I could tell. The fans were singing along at the top of their lungs. Everyone was decked out in Red. I looked around at all the signs, they were all so detailed. I waved to a group of girls who caught my eye, and they all screamed, jumping up and down. Austin finished performing his acoustic set, and was about to go into I got that rock n roll. But something else happened.
"This is usually the part where I sing a different song, but since I'm home, I thought I would give you guys a special treat." The crowd screamed, "The day I left for this tour, my pal Ed Shear and I wrote a song together." My eyes widened. "It's sort of a surprise for my girlfriend, who's here tonight. Anyway, this is a brand new song, called Timeless!" Everyone screamed again, but my mouth just gaped. He wrote me a song?
"Every day, day, day, I fall for you a little more-o-ore.
And every night, night, night, I dream of you so beautiful-ul-ul, ye-ah,
Every time we laugh, I see the sparks flying,
Every time you blush, I feel those butterflies,
Baby how we feel, we'll always be in style,
forever and ever,
This love, is never gonna fade,
We are Timeless,
We are Timeless,
My heart, will never ever change,
We are Timeless,
We are Timeless, and we're gonna last,
Our love will always feel this way,
We are Timeless,
We are Timeless."
He finished the note, and by that point I was grinning as wide as I could. I clapped along with the rest of the crowd. "I'm going to take it you like it?" He asked. I laughed, "Great!" He paused for a minute. A back track started playing. "So, I've got this great group of people behind me, and if you could show them some love that would be great," he said, referring to his dancers. "Everyone, this is Joey," the crowd screamed and Joey did a complicated set of moves. "Give it up for Ethan!" Austin shouted in the mic, "Nick and Troy!" He pointed over to the edge, where two guys were dancing. Austin walked over to Nick, who was a tall brunet, but not as tall as Austin. So he rested his elbow on Nick's shoulder.
"You know guys, Nick is the #1 freestyle dancer in Chicago," Austin bragged about his dancer. "But I mean, we're in Miami, so…" he trailed off with a shrug as the crowd screamed. Austin handed his mic off to Troy, and began to dance. For almost 3 minutes Austin and Nick danced off, I guess it was a tie, because Austin just went straight into his last song, Can You Feel It? (7) Once he finished that, he said goodbye to the crowd and disappeared backstage.
The lights in the arena came back on, but went off again around 15 minutes later, and Ed came on stage. Halfway into Ed's set, a pair of arms wrapped around my waist. I turned to see Austin behind me. I grinned at him and leaned up to give him a kiss. We stayed like that for about 10 seconds, before I pulled away and leaned up to his ear. He had to lean down because I was so short.
"Thank you for the song Austin, I loved it." I said, and wrapped my arms around his neck.
"Anything for you," he mumbled into my neck.
For the rest of the concert Austin's arm was around my waist. We danced and sang along with Taylor, and had the best time. Of course all good things come to an end. Now I was standing in front of Austin's tour bus, we were hugging so tight it was almost hard to breathe. He was departing for Orlando tonight, and I wouldn't see him until the end of the tour.
"Hey," he said, wiping the tears that had come, "we'll be fine, I'll call you tonight, and tomorrow, and the next day. We'll video chat every night, and I'll fly you out to a few more shows. I promise." I nodded, before burying my head in his chest again.
"I'll miss you," I mumbled.
"I'll miss you, too," he replied, kissing the top of my head, and then I leaned up so I could give him a proper kiss goodbye.
*LINE BREAK* Ally's POV
I walked into my house, going to the kitchen where I could get a drink. Man, my throat was killing me from all the screaming I did. As I was drinking a glass of water I noticed an unopened envelope with my name on it.
"Oh yeah," I said to myself, "The envelope Taylor wanted me to read." I tore it open, a letter was folded, but when I opened it, something fell out. As I intently read the print on the 'present' my eyes widened. Turning to the letter, I read her neat handwriting intently. I debated for a second on what I read, was I ready for this? I silently contemplated, before picked up my phone. Dialing a number, I sent a simple text.
I'm in.
Oooooh, cliffhanger. What's Ally agreeing to? What's the 'present'? Only I know so farrrrrr:)
