A/N- thanks for all the reviews on chapter 1! I'm gonna possibly start a new story (after I update Secret Life Of a Girl With Stage Fright and Girl I Used To Know). I may publish it tomorrow. In the reviews, please say whether Switched or Audrey & Ally is a better choice to publish, judging by the title. So, enjoy chapter 2! Sorry for my babbling! Disclaimer- I don't own Austin & Ally or the song Leave The World Behind by Laura Marano. Some of the lyrics may be wrong, I just wrote them by what I heard.
Ally's POV
Shooting at the beach.
I mean, like, shooting the movie.
"Okay, people!" Dez says. "We're gonna shoot the scene where Troy saves Lauren." Oh no. No, no, no. I can't believe we're doing this, even if it is acting. Does Austin have feelings for me? And then I hear, "Action!"
"Ahhhhhh! Claws! Help me!" I scream.
"I'll save you, Lauren!" Austin shouts. He removes his shirt and jumps into the "water."
"Thanks for saving me." I say softly.
"I'm the lifeguard. I'll save anyone who gets hurt on my beach. I care about them all. But I care about you most." Austin's really good at staying in character.
"What do you mean?" I ask. And it's a question asked more by me then by Lauren. He leans down. I'm not prepared for this. I can't do it.
Or can I?
When he kisses me, I feel a tingle. I feel a spark. And I know this can't be happening.
I love Austin.
"Cut!" Dez shouts. "That was awesome, guys!" I don't say a word. I'm lost in Austin's eyes. Those big brown eyes. The colour of chocolate. He has to lose me, lose me in the wonderfulness that is my partner. Why does he have to be so damn nice and perfect? Urgggghh!
I do like him, though. Just when I never, ever thought I would.
-LATER IN THE PRACTICE ROOM-
I'm writing a new song in my private book and my piano when Austin walks in. I have new knocking rules. "Ahem?" I cough. He backs up and knocks. "Come in." I turn back to my song. I can't seem to think of what to put for the second verse.
"You did really great today." He says. I smile.
"Thanks." I hum the chorus of my song.
"Is that a new song?" He asks.
"Yeah. For me."
"Can I hear it?" He sits down. I'm not quite ready to share it, but it's Austin. The guy I've recently come to likelike.
The other night
I saw my first fireflies
Now I know it's time
To say goodbye
It's not my fault
It's just the way that I see
Someone said you should just
Let it be
And oh, it's burning
From the inside out
Like a darkness
Tryin' to blow a candle out
And I think it's a sign
I'm gonna
Take the drive and try to find
A way to leave the world behind
Another place with open space
Where I know I can live my life
I'm gonna
Run around and scream and shout
And do it one day at a time
I know that I can clear my mind
As soon as I leave
This world behind
He stares at me for about two minutes. Finally I break the silence.
"What do you think?" I ask.
"It's great. I didn't know you were so good at writing songs for yourself." He says. And this time, I'm the one who leans in.
This kiss we share feels more real. More us. He doesn't pull away. Instead, he deepens it. He caresses my hair. I wrap my arms around his neck. Right now I'm thinking it's a good thing I put that knocking sign on the door. If not, anyone could walk in on us. Trish, Dez, even my dad. After about a minute, we break apart.
"Better get down to the beach." Austin says.
"Yeah." I agree. We leave the practice room without another word.
A/N- what did you think? Like my use of Leave The World Behind? If you haven't heard that song, you should! It's on YouTube! Man, I love Laura's music! Anyway, review it up!
