Hey everybody, this is Daddysgirl11. I just realized that I haven't done a disclaimer for my past two chapters, so I don't own Austin and Ally or anything else you may recognize. I would like to thank all of you who read, reviewed, followed and/or favorite my story. You guys are amazing and I definitely didn't expect to get that much of a response just on the first two chapters. Anyway, on with the story…
Ally's POV
"Ally, turn on Hit T.V. quick!", Trish yelled as she raced in Sonic Boom. I turned it on knowing that it must be pretty important for Trish to be running.
"Why am I-", I started, but the story quickly caught my attention.
"Hi, I'm Shay Turner, and this is Hit T.V. Last night, teen heart-throb, and overnight internet sensation Austin Moon was seen being kicked out of a local music store in Miami called 'Sonic Boom', by a rather angry young mother. Apparently our superstar somehow insulted this woman and/or her child to get her so upset. Sources say this girl owns the music store, so I have a feeling this isn't the last we'll be hearing about her. This has been Shay Turner, Hit T.V."
Trish turned to me with an awaiting look. "Spill Ally."
"Look, that jerk came in acting all conceded when I offered to help him, then he yelled at Ella for running into him when she came downstairs", I said truthfully.
"Well, he is like the hottest new celebrity", Trish said.
"And that automatically gives him the right to yell at my daughter and act like a complete jerk!?", I snapped.
"Calm down Ally. Of course it doesn't give him the right, but the whole ego thing must come from the fame", she reasoned.
"He accused me of being a bad mother", I said. Trish's eyes widened from shock to anger.
"You want me to beat him up for you?", she asked and I just laughed.
"No Trish. You know how long you'd go to prison for hitting a celebrity? But if I have to see that face again in person, I might end up giving you the okay, or even do it myself", I said muttering that last part.
"Umm…Ally? You might be giving me that 'okay' today", Trish said sounding nervous. Why would she be nervous? I turned around and roll my eyes as soon as I see none other than Austin Moon walking through the door. This outta be good…
Austin's POV
I walked in the store I was just kicked out of yesterday, with a plan that could clear my image. Of course that is if I can get that crazy mother to agree. Of course she rolls her eyes as soon as she sees me walk in, but neither of us get a chance to say anything, because her daughter suddenly walks downstairs singing Baby(1), one of my songs. Awe, that kid really is a fan of my music. "… I thought you'd always be mine", she sang cutely, but what I didn't expect was that this little bitty girl got the rap, and the rest of the song nearly perfect.
"When I was thirteen
I had my first love
There was nobody
That compared to my baby
And nobody came between us
Don't get ever from above
She had me going crazy
Oh I was star-struck
She woke me up daily
Don't need no Starbucks
She made my heart pound
Now skip a beat
When I see her on the street and
At school on the playground
But I really want to see her on the weekend
She know she got me dazin'
Cause she was so amazing
And now my heart is breaking
But I just keep on saying…"
And she continued the rest of the song, without even noticing everyone staring at her. When she finished, she finally saw everyone looking at her and ran upstairs, locking herself inside a little room. "Oh no. Is she okay? Should I go talk to her? Do-", I started panicking, but her mother cut me off laughing a little.
"Calm down superstar, she's just a little shy", she said. I sighed in relief. "Why would you care anyway? You just yelled at her yesterday for bumping into you."
"Yeah, I'm really sorry about that. I actually came here to apologize", I said which was half true. I did come here to apologize, but I also had another reason for coming.
"Don't be apologizing to me. I'm not the one that you made cry, I'm just the 'bad mother'", she said putting air-quotes around bad mother.
"What!?", I exclaimed. "When did I ever call you a bad mother?"
"Really? 'What kind of mother just lets their kid run around like that unsupervised?' In case you didn't realize, that implies that you do in fact think I'm a bad mother", she said. Well now I feel even worse than I did before.
"I'm so sorry…"
"Ally. My name's Ally Dawson", she said. Huh, pretty name.
Ally's POV
"I'm so sorry Ally. I didn't mean what I said, and I shouldn't have yelled at your daughter. I didn't know that's what you thought. I'm really sorry, and I'd never call you a bad mother", he said, and from the look in his eyes, I could tell he was being sincere.
"You make my little girl cry again, I'll kick so hard it'll be you crying instead of Ella", I said tossing him the keys to the practice room where Ella was at the moment. I watched him walk upstairs, then turned to Trish who had an odd expression on her face. "What?"
"Nothing, it's just that I thought I was going to get to kick some butt and mess up that pretty little face. I didn't however think that I'd be having to watch you just give in and accept his apology", she said incredibly.
"Hey, I'm not accepting anything until I know how Ella feels. She's my daughter, and my top priority", I said.
"Good Ally. You remember that", Trish said. I just laughed and nodded. Trish is very protective of me and Ella, but that's just because she's like a sister to me instead of just a best friend. She has been my best friend since kindergarten, and never judged me for being an orphan. She's always been there to help me, and this is just her way of trying to do that again.
Austin's POV
I opened the door to see that poor little girl curled up on the floor in the corner of the room, crying. It about killed me to see that. I absolutely hate seeing this precious little angel crying.
"Hey Ella", I said. She immediately looked up and turned around, looking at me with those sad, innocent little eyes of hers.
"H-how do you know my name?", she asked in a small voice that's quite adorable, I might add.
"I heard your Mommy say it. You have a very pretty name", I said. She smiled and mumbled a quick 'thank-you' to me.
"You were singing so nicely downstairs, I'm actually surprised. Not many kids your age can get the rap part right…actually I don't even know many people my age that can get it right either. You're a very special little girl", I said. She smiled even bigger, then just ran over hugging me.
"Thanks. It's great to hear that from the person that sings it", she said. It's so cute that she knows that.
"Austin, have you seen Lea!?", Dez ran in asking.
"Who's Lea?", I asked only slightly confused. This is Dez's usual behavior, so I should be used to it by now.
"My gingerbread friend, duh", he answered as if it were the most obvious thing in the world. This of course made Ella laugh. (She has the most adorable little laugh).
"You're funny", Ella said between giggles.
"Hey Ella, piggy-back-ride?", I suggested.
"Yeah!", she yelled and jumped on my back. Man this kid is small. She laughed her little head off as I ran around the room, then started running downstairs.
Ally's POV
I was just standing there talking to Trish, when I see Austin run out of the practice room and downstairs, with Ella laughing hysterically on his back. His red-head friend came down right after them. I didn't even see him go up there.
"Uh…Austin, please be careful", I said nervously. I loved watching Ella have so much fun, but I don't fully trust Austin yet, and she's my daughter. Can you really blame me?
"Calm down Ally. I promise I won't drop her", he said, but I was still doubtful.
"I don't know…", I started.
"Please Mommy? Austin's really fun", Ella said to me. She looked so excited, that I just couldn't take that away from her.
"Okay, fine. But please be careful", I added. Austin saluted me, then continued to run around the store. I just laughed because I love seeing my baby girl so happy. I didn't even bother to enforce the 'no running in the store' rule.
"Hi, I don't believe we've officially met yet. I'm Austin's best friend and video director, Dez", Austin's red-head friend introduced himself. Even his name sounds familiar.
"Oh, hi. I'm Ally. It's very nice to meet you. This is my best friend Trish, and that's my daughter Ella on Austin's back", I said and we all three started laughing.
"Well it's nice to meet you two Ally, and you as well Trish", Dez said to both of us. "Oh yeah, have either of you seen my gingerbread friend, Lea?" Trish and I looked at each other, then to Dez, then back to each other. This guy is awfully strange, but that makes him fun. I believe he's just a big kid at heart, and well, on the outside also.
"Dez, maybe you should ease them into your…unique personality", Austin said finally putting Ella back down.
"You're telling me this bozo is always like this?", Trish asked laughing. Austin and Dez both nodded.
"Hey!", Dez exclaimed after thinking it over for a few seconds. "I am not a bozo."
"The very fact you believe that proves my point", Trish said. She and Dez continued to argue as Austin pulled me to the side.
"Look Ally, I know we've only known each other for about two days, and definitely didn't start off on the right foot, but will you please do me a favor?", he asked.
"That depends Moon. What kind of favor do you have in mind?", I asked.
"Well, apparently I don't have the best 'image' to the public eye right now, and my manager and record label want to change that. They suggested that having a steady girlfriend would be great. They also like the idea of me being a 'family man', so it just makes it all the better that you have a daughter. I'm willing to pay you for this, and it shouldn't be too long. I know you probably feel like I'm just using you, which I'm not going to lie is kind of true. But you would get something out of it, and-" I cut him off there not really caring to listen to the rest of his incredibly long speech.
"I'll do it", I said. He just stared at me in what looked like shock and disbelief.
"What?"
"I said I'll do it", I repeated.
"Really!? You will!?", he asked still a little surprised. I simply nodded. "Oh my goodness, that's great Ally! Thank-you, thank-you, thank-you!", he exclaimed pulling me into a hug. It was weird, but a little…nice.
"You're welcome, but I don't want my daughter exposed to all that paparazzi", I warned him.
"Of course not. They may see her every once in a while, but they won't get anywhere near her as long as I'm there", he said. I couldn't help but think of how incredibly sweet that was.
"Thanks Austin. So when do we start, how long will this last, and what's our story?", I asked.
"Okay um, we start Monday, it can last, let's say two months or as long as you want, and what do you mean by 'our story'?", he replied. I rolled my eyes at his cluelessness.
"We need a 'story' as to why we got together, when they all just saw me kick you out of the store yesterday", I explained.
"Oh, well I guess we could half way tell the truth on that part", he said.
"What do you mean by that?"
"Well, we could say that I came here to apologize for being a jerk. I'll say I was just in a bad mood that day. When I apologized, I started playing with your daughter, and you thought the sight was adorable, so you said yes when I asked you out", he explained. Wow, that's almost completely true…especially the part about how adorable it was when he was playing with Ella.
"Cool. If you can just come up with all that on the spot, you should be an actor and a singer", I joked.
"Well, not to brag or anything, but I was in a movie Dez made once", he said.
"Of course"
"Anyway, I gotta go. See you Monday?", he asked.
"Sure", I said smiling a little.
"Good. I'll send a car to get you and Ella, and bring you both to my place", he said and left, dragging Dez with him who was still arguing with Trish.
What did I just get myself into?
