I'd like to send shout outs to all the reviewers who reviewed and well this chapter is for you. Oh and yeah, I wrote my new story. It's called 'Dark Angel' i'm posting it tommorrow. Okay, you can read now.
Chapter 4: Responses and Reminders
My first expression was shock. Duh. Why? What is he planning? Austin was still looking at me with a smirk on his face. The bastard. Oh my God! Did I really just say that? But, there was no other word to describe the way Austin was acting right now. I folded my arms to my chest.
"And if I refuse?" I asked.
"I suppose Mr. Smith would be very interested to hear that Brady did all the work," he said. I immediately covered his mouth.
"SSHHHH!" I said, looking around nervously. I really hope no one heard him.
"Don't say that so loud!"I said. It would really not be good if anyone heard him. For me, at the very least. I removed my hand off his mouth cautiously, looking for any danger signs.
"So, is it a deal?" he asked. I sighed. I know that he knew the answer but he wanted me to say it out loud.
"Yes, it's a deal, as if you don't know that already," I said and shook his hand. He smiled.
"Come on, Ally, I'll give you a lift home," Austin said and somehow, when he said that, I didn't think he was being sarcastic.
Austin's POV
Ally kept an uncanny silence in the car, listening to the music blaring on the radio. It was Miami Mack's show. I wondered what she was thinking about. Was she disgusted? Maybe. Mad? Perhaps. Confused? Definitely. I can't blame her. I guess it will be very awkward if your best friend asks you to go on a date with him. I heard a soft hum and I was back in the car. It took me a minute to place that it was Ally who was singing. I realized that the hum was words, being sung softly. I recognized the tune as an old song. I listened more carefully to her singing the lyrics.
Strumming my pain with his fingers
Singing my life with his words
Killing me softly with his song
Killing me softly with his song
Telling my whole life with his words
Killing me softly with his song
I felt all flushed with fever
Embarrassed by the crowd
I felt he found my letters
And read each one out loud
I prayed that he would finish
But he just kept right on
Strumming my pain with his fingers
Singing my life with his words
Killing me softly with his song
Killing me softly with his song
Telling my whole life with his words
Killing me softly with his song
He sang as if he knew me
In all my dark despair
And then he looked right through me
As if I wasn't there
And he just kept on singing
Singing clear and strong
Strumming my pain with his fingers
Singing my life with his words
Killing me softly with his song
Killing me softly with his song
Telling my whole life with his words
Killing me softly with his song
Strumming my pain with his fingers
Singing my life with his words
Killing me softly with his song
Killing me softly with his song
Telling my whole life with his words
Killing me
He was strumming my pain
Yeah, he was singing my life
Killing me softly with his song
Killing me softly with his song
Telling my whole life with his words
Killing me softly
With his song
The song was more beautiful than even words could describe. Ally stopped singing and turned to see me looking at her.
"Austin, if we get in an accident I'll kill you," she said and went back to staring at the window. It was the last words that she said throughout the entire trip.
Hey! Hope you enjoyed this chapter. And if you want to know the name of the song is killing me softly by Roberta Flack. Bye! Reviews will be much appreciated and please read The Truth about Forever by Lily 5603. Bye!
