Hey guys! Sorry it took so long! And sorry about this horrible, short chapter! Don't hate me like I know you already do! Anyway, thanks for all your reviews! It actually wasn't as bad as I thought! Though someone wanted to kill me... But they said they'd spare me so I can finish this story! Thanks for that! On a different note, I GOT TICKETS TO AN R5 CONCERT AND I GOT VIP SO I GET TO MEET THEM AND I'M FREAKING OUT AND I'M SO EXCITED AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! Now for the disclaimer. The prompt is Bagels vs. Donuts. Alrighty.

Maddie's Incredible Disclaimers: Part VI

Me: *In the practice room with Austin and Ally*

Austin: Hey I want a donut.

Ally: Austin, donuts are bad for you. Why not replace it with a healthy whole wheat bagel and cream cheese?

Austin: Because those taste like health and broken dreams.

Ally: Actually, they taste amazing.

Austin: Donuts are better.

Ally: Bagels.

Austin: Donuts

Ally: Bagels!

Austin: DONUTS!

Me: GUYS! Why don't I invent a healthy bagel that tastes exactly like a donut?

Ally: Maddie, that's impossible.

Me: No it's not!

Austin: As much as I wish Ally was wrong, she's right. You can't just invent possibly the greatest food invention of all time.

Me: I'm writing this. I can do whatever I want. *Snaps fingers and healthy bagel that tastes like a chocolate frosted donut appears in hand*

Austin: I want it!

Me: What do I get in return?

Ally: I got this...

To Be Continued

Jealousy

(Ally's P.O.V.)

I'm still in shock, and so is Austin. I knew it was coming the minute Austin and Piper locked eyes. She got the look. The look that girls get when they're about to kiss a guy. The guy never sees it, even though it's clear as day. I just don't get why she did it. Luckily, I wasn't connected to his senses, so I didn't feel anything-that would've been awkward-but it's still weird.

Austin hasn't moved. Like, at all. If I wasn't in his head, I'd question whether or not he was breathing. Still, I'm sort of worried about his mental health at this point.

"Austin?" I ask cautiously after a few minutes.

Yeah? He says. At least he's responsive.

"You haven't moved in the past ten minutes."

I know.

"Are you okay?" I ask, not sure about his response.

I have no idea. Did Piper really just kiss me?

"Yeah," I reply. I'm even madder at Piper now than I was before. First, she reads my diary, then she kisses my boyfriend? Ex-boyfriend. Yeah. I said ex-boyfriend. Ah, shut up.

And did I just like it? That caught me off guard.

"You tell me," I say, my eyes narrowing. I'm not doing well with this whole jealousy thing. Yes, I'm jealous. Deal with it. Austin's silent for a moment. Then he nods.

I think I need to go to a mental hospital, he decides. I nod. No point in disagreeing with him. Gee, thanks for the support. 'No, Austin, you're not crazy.' He says, mentally mimicking my voice, if that made any sense. Just then, Trish and Dez burst into the store.

"Austin!" Dez exclaims.

"Piper scared us half to death and told us we'd probably find you here," Trish said. Then, when he didn't respond, she said, "Austin?"

Ally, I'm freaking out! I literally can't talk normal! Take the controls and say something! The controls appeared next to me. I grabbed the microphone.

"It's Ally. Austin's kind of in shock right now, so he gave me the controls until he can calm down," I said through Austin's mouth. I used the controls and made his tense muscles relax.

"Ally!" Trish nearly killed Austin in a hug that was meant for me.

"I've been here the whole time, you know," I point out. She just shrugs.

"Wait, why is Austin in shock?" Dez asks. I turn off the microphone.

"Should I tell them?" I ask Austin.

I dunno. I'm not thinking straight. Wow, that kiss seriously messed him up. He's right, though. There are holes in his fortress, and through them I see that files are flying everywhere. I turn the microphone back on.

"Piper kissed him," I say. Trish and Dez's jaws drop. "And he thinks he liked it," I add.

"But-" Trish starts. She knows I still like Austin. I mean, why wouldn't I? It's only been a few days.

"I need you guys to find Piper and bring her here. She probably won't come willingly. Knock her out if you have to. But she needs to be here. She has something to help you guys get to the Shadow Realm to save me," I say, cutting her off.

"Uh, okay," Trish says, snapping out of her shock. She drags Dez out of the store to look for Piper. I set down the controls.

"Okay, Austin. You need to snap out of… whatever this is. Okay?" I say.

Okay, he says unsurely. He's still completely freaked out and a little scared.

"Okay, stand up," I say. He obeys. Once he moves, he shakes his head, finally snapping out of the shock. "Good. You better?"

I think so, he says. No point in talking out loud when he's alone. The doors open and Trish and Dez walk in, carrying an unconscious Piper between them.

"Ally or Austin?" Trish asks once they set her down.

"Austin," Austin says.

"Tell Ally she was right. Piper did not wanna come," Trish says.

"She can hear you," Austin deadpans.

"I wonder when she'll wake up," Dez says.

"Eh, it'll be a few minutes. That was a good pressure point," Trish replies, tilting her head at the blonde girl on the floor. Then, she turns on Austin. "So, Piper kissed you," she says. "And you liked it." She slowly walks closer to Austin, like a cat approaching a mouse. Austin raises his hands in front of his face.

"Don't hurt me," he squeaks nervously. Trish's eyes narrow, but Piper's stirring saves Austin from a world of hurt. Though, in his eyes, I don't know if Piper waking up is a much better option.

"She's waking up," Dez states the obvious.

"Thank you, Captain Obvious," Trish says. Austin's fear multiplies when he sees the blonde opening her eyes.

I am so dead, he mutters mentally.

"No, you're not," I argue. "Piper won't wanna kill you. She'll want to run away. Now, Trish on the other hand…"

That's who I'm worried about.

"Eh, you'll be fine. Probably."

Not helping, Als. Take the controls; I can't do this. I try to argue, but to no avail. I sigh and grab the microphone.

"Where am I?" Piper asks once her eyes fully open.

"Sonic Boom," Trish replies, deadly calm. Piper sits up, and her gaze falls on Austin, or me, now, I guess. I use the controls and make Austin wave nervously. It's not that hard, actually. Like a TV remote.

"Ally, I know that's you," she says halfheartedly.

"Well, you're on your own," I say to Austin. He tries to protest, but I just say, "Man up!" He sighs inwardly.

Silence falls over everyone.

"Well, this is awkward," Dez notes.

"Piper, just give us whatever it is you came to give us and get outta here," Trish says rudely. Piper sighs, and I can see just how much she regrets kissing my friend.

She shouldn't regret it, Austin mutters in his head. I don't think he meant for me to hear that.

"C'mon," she says, getting up, "it's in the parking lot." We're all confused, but we follow her anyway; or, they follow her. With me hitching a ride in my best friend's head. I'm still confused about this.

Piper leads them through the mall and to the parking lot. On the way, she and Austin end up walking alongside each other.

"Sorry," Piper said after a long, awkward silence. "I didn't mean to. I know you and Ally…" she trails off.

"S'okay," he says. "I know how irresistible I can be," he adds. Piper slaps him in the stomach, rolling her eyes.

"Ally was right about you," she says.

"Stop flirting!" Trish exclaims from behind them. "It's annoying, disturbing, and just plain weird."

"We're not flirting!" Piper calls back.

"We kind of are," Austin points out. Okay, now I'm mad. I understand if he flirts with her and doesn't know it. It's not his fault he's a natural flirt. But admitting it and not doing anything about it? I'm supposed to be in her position! Austin's supposed to be flirting with me! I should be the one blushing and giggling! I've decided that I'm never talking to Piper again. Ever.

"Gross!" Trish exclaims.

"For once I agree with her," Dez says seriously.

"Oh, shut up," Austin kids. If he were with me, I'd slap him. Hard. But no, I'm inside his head with no way to escape.

Finally, they arrive at the parking lot. Piper leads them to a corner and snaps her fingers. A small cloud of black smoke appears.

"Okay, this is it. You just jump into it and it'll take you where you need to go. But it's not done yet. It still needs to grow. It should be ready by tomorrow," Piper says.

"That's cutting it pretty short," Trish remarks. "If it's a seven hour trip-"

"We'll make it in plenty of time," Austin cuts her off. "Thanks, Piper." He hugs her. Not just a friend hug. No, he hugs her the way he hugs me. My anger builds even more.

"No problem," she says when they pull away. "Well, I guess I'll see you all tomorrow. Bye guys." With that, she disappears in a cloud of smoke.

"I thought she'd never leave," Dez says as the three walk back in the mall.

"I know, right?" Trish says.

"You know, you two could be a little nicer," Austin remarks.

Trish stops. Which causes Dez and Austin to stop.

"What's gotten into you?" Trish demands. "I thought you hated her for kidnapping Ally. Her grandma is Sarah! If you don't hate her, you should at least be scared of her!"

"Well, I'm not. Sarah killed her parents in front of her when she was seven. She's just scared that the same thing will happen to her if she doesn't do what Sarah says. She's actually really nice. You just don't want to know her," Austin argues.

"You know me, buddy. I love making friends. Especially with animals. Like those flamingoes at the zoo!" Dez says.

"And?" Trish says.

"That's it. Oh, by the way, Martha had a baby!" he tells Austin.

"Really? Next time you see her, tell her I said congratulations!" Austin exclaims. At least he's still sort of his old self. Except the fact that he likes a Shadow! Okay, he hasn't actually said it, but we all know it's true.

"Anyway," Trish says, "Austin, you need to focus. We need to save Ally. You can't like the girl who kidnapped her! Even if it was her grandma who forced her to! It just isn't right! Plus, she's a Shadow!" Austin rolls his eyes.

"I don't like Piper!" he says. Trish raises an eyebrow. "Okay, so I like Piper! But what's the big deal? I'm not gonna act on it! I'm not gonna kiss her again! No matter how much I want to," he mumbles the last part. My eyes widen.

"So you want to kiss Piper," I say, not quite believing it.

I-I'm not sure. But can we not do this here?

"Not sure? You just admitted that you like her, and you said you wanted to kiss her! How much surer do you need to be?" I ask, angry at him. He ignores me.

My friends arrive back at Sonic Boom. Trish opens the store again while Dez and Austin fool around with the instruments. I realize there are still holes in Austin's fortress, so I go inside. Hey, I'm mad at him. This is the best way I can do something about it at this point.

It doesn't take long to find the file with my name on it. I quickly read through it, but I don't see anything that sparks my interest. I sigh, exasperated, and throw the file across the room, where it lands on a beanbag chair. I lay down on the couch.

Suddenly, I'm looking into a pair of blue eyes. I scream and fall out of my bed.

"How did you- When did you- Wait…" I stop talking. Piper woke me up for some unknown reason. I get up and lay back down. I'm not in the mood to deal with her right now.

"Ally, I'm just gonna wake you up again." I close my eyes anyways. Piper sighs. "I'm sorry, okay? I know you still like Austin, and I totally want you two together. Like, more than anyone. But I just got stuck in the moment, and his eyes kinda hypnotized me or something-"

"Yeah, that happens," I interrupt, annoyed. I've given up on not talking to her.

"Anyway, I'm really, really sorry. I can't help if I like him, I mean, I'm a huge fan, as you know, and then I finally met him and… You're not gonna forgive me, are you?"

"Nope." She sighs, but she gets up and walks out the door. I go to sleep again.

"Ally's back," I hear Austin say.

Where were you? I was worried sick! I thought Sarah-

"Your girlfriend just woke me up," I snap.

My girlfr-She's not my girlfriend!

"But she wants to be. And you want to be her boyfriend. What's holding you back?" I mumble pathetically. He doesn't answer.

"Where was she?" Dez asks.

"Piper woke her up," Austin replies.

"Why?" Trish asks.

Hey, why'd Piper wake you up?

"To apologize."

For what?

"For kissing you, you idiot!"

"Ally said that Piper woke her up to apologize," Austin tells Trish and Dez.

"For what?" Trish asks.

"For…. Y'know," Austin says.

"No, I don't."

"Well, just tell Ally to never worry me like that again!" Dez shouts. "She is grounded!"

"What?" I say.

"What?" Austin repeats.

"She's like the little sister I never had, okay? I'm protective!" Dez explains.

"Awwww, that's so cute!" Trish says. "Wait, then what am I?"

"My mean German shepherd." Trish smacks Dez across the head.

"So, now what?" Austin asks.

"I'm working, remember?" Trish says, rolling her eyes.

"Banjo badminton?" Dez suggests.

"Banjo badminton," Austin agrees.

"Austin Monica Moon, don't you dare serve that birdy!" I scold. He hits the birdy with a banjo and it sails over the counter. Dez hits it back to Austin, sending it over a few customers and Trish as well as the counter. "Austin, stop!" I shout. "Do you know how much those banjos cost? And what if the birdy hits Trish or the customers? Or what if the banjo flies out of your hand and hits someone? They could get a concussion! Or they could slip into a coma and die! Do you want someone to die from slipping into a coma because they got hit with a flying banjo, Austin?"

Relax, Als. No one's gonna die, he says. Well, except maybe us tomorrow, but that's not the point.

"Thanks, Austin," I say sarcastically. "I had just forgotten about our impending death until you brought it up."

How could you forget about impending death? He asks as he flawlessly returns a serve from Dez.

"I've had other things on my mind," I snap. Like the fact that you like Piper.

Okay, calm down, he says, noticing the change in my tone. "Dez, Ally told us not to play anymore." He puts the banjos away while Dez puts the birdy in his backpack.

"Trish, I'm bored," Dez complains after about five minutes.

"Oh, do you wanna work Ally's shift?" Dez shakes his head, and Trish rolls her eyes. She and Dez start bickering over who works harder. Austin walks upstairs to the practice room.

Ally, I'm bored, he whines as he sits down on the piano bench.

"Well, why don't I get Piper to come and you two can make out while I clean the house?" I suggest sarcastically. I don't know what's gotten into me, but I can't say anything nice to my best friend. Stupid feelings. Stupid jealousy. Stupid Piper.

As tempting as that is, I already explained: I'm not in love with her. It's just a temporary thing. You of all people should know how much one kiss can change someone's feelings, he points out. I'm even angrier at him for saying kissing Piper is tempting, but I guess he's sort of right. Last year, when he kissed me for the first time, the feelings I already had for him expanded by tenfold.

"I don't know what you're talking about," I lie.

Yes you do. And I know you know exactly what I'm talking about. I roll my eyes.

"I'm done with this conversation," I say. I concentrate and make my favorite book appear in my hands.

Whoa! How did you-

"Shh, reading," I interrupt. I sit on the beanbag chair and start reading, trying to forget all my problems.

See? This chapter isn't good. I know that. But oh well. Not all of them can be great, right? Anywhoozles, I don't really have much to say. If you liked the chapter put SEAWEED BRAIN in a review! If you thought this chapter was okayyyyy then put PERSASSY in a review! If you hated it, put KELP FACE in a review! (For all my demigods out there, I'm kind of on a PJO rampage. The mortals don't even know.) Thanks for reading and please review! I love you more than I love PJO and HoO! (Which is a lot)
