A/N:
I'm back! Sorry for the long wait on this update. I was absolutely busy with stuff. Anyway, here's the story!
I don't own anything recognizable
Austin shivered from the coldness surrounding him. It had been about half an hour since he last saw Ally, and the unseen force was still forcing him down. It was getting colder and colder every passing second, and now, Austin couldn't take it anymore. He was so used to the heat of Miami that being cold was not on his bucket list.
"A-Ally?" he called out, still shivering. He wanted to wrap himself in his arms, but he couldn't move. "A-Ally, where a-are you? P-Please, I-I'm really c-cold here."
Suddenly, Ally appeared in front of him. She smirked. "Aww, is the little boy cold?" she asked mockingly, pinching his cheek.
Austin gave her a weird look. "We're about t-the same a-age." he stuttered because he was shivering, and still scared. Then he continued, "I'm really c-cold, A-Ally. Please let me go. I won't leave, I promise."
Ally raised an eyebrow. "Promise?"
Austin nodded. "Promise." he confirmed.
Ally stared at him for a while and the next thing he knew, he wasn't feeling cold anymore. He didn't feel warm either, but it was much better than being cold like before. "T-Thanks." he breathed in relief.
"What is your name?" Ally asked.
Austin seemed confused at pointed at himself. "You want to know my name?" he asked.
Ally crossed her arms. "Yes, I do. Now, WHAT IS YOUR NAME?"
Austin jumped at Ally's sudden increase in voice. "I-It's Austin. Austin Moon."
Ally smiled an evil smile. "Well, Austin Moon, it's great to meet you."
"Why won't you let me go?" Austin blurted out the question. He gulped, hoping that Ally wouldn't yell at him again.
She didn't. Actually, she answered the question calmly. "Because I don't have a friend. I hate being lonely my whole life."
Austin felt pity for her instantly. No friends? Her whole life? I can't imagine not having friends. "I'm sorry about that." Then he remembered that he really had to go home. "I'll be your friend, but I have to go right now. So, please, let me go-"
"NO! I'M NOT LETTING YOU GO!" Ally yelled, cutting him off. "You are not leaving this place until I say so." she added with a quieter tone.
Austin gulped again. "O-Okay."
Ally gave him a glare before she disappeared out of his sight, while he just shrunk back on the couch, scared of what might happen to him.
He really wanted to get home soon. He didn't want to be stuck in a house with a crazy ghost. He wanted, no, he needed to get out of there.
He looked back and forth, left and right, and got off the couch. He grabbed his backpack from the floor and slowly made his way towards the door.
He stopped right in front of it, and quietly jingled the knob. The door wouldn't open.
He sudden;y heard someone clear her throat and the creepy voice again. "What do you think you're doing?"
Austin turned around slowly, trying to put on a fake sheepish smile on. "Um, the door. I-It was um, it was... I-It looked broken. Yeah, it looked broken. I-I was trying to fix it." he lied unconvincingly.
Ally, somehow, fell for it. She walked over to the door and put her hand on the knob, and twisted it, succeeding in opening it. "It's not broken, see?" she told him.
Austin fake-smiled. "Oh yeah, it;s not. Anyway, I gotta go. Bye!" With that, he bolted out of the house and into the trees, not realizing that his backpack zipper was half open.
"Austin, wait!" Ally called after him. When she saw that he was gone, she closed the door and sighed. "I just want a friend." she said, letting a tear run down her face. Then, she looked down onto the floor and noticed something green. She picked it up and admired it. Then, she wiped the stray tear off her face and smirked. "Maybe, I have something more than a friend." she chuckled evilly as she took one more look and the green object which was Austin's beanie. "Austin, you're my slave."
Uh oh. What's gonna happen next? Well, you'll find that out later. Also, don't worry, the romance will come soon, but of course, it wouldn't start without friendship, right?
R&R please.
