Chapter 32
Ally's P.O.V.
Two months after the break up, and many awkward situations later…
I made a few last minute touches to my makeup and looked at Trish.
There are 2 weeks left of school, and tonight is the graduation ceremony night.
"Do I look okay" I ask, looking down at my Peach colored sundress. Austin bought me this when we were still together, and I had never worn it.
"You look amazing Ally, Austin's not going to able to keep himself off you" Trish teased.
I sighed, "I wish".
I had never noticed before the breakup, but Austin was my rock, my solid ground that I could always trust. He still is, but things just aren't like they used to be. Like when we are messing around in his room and our hands touch on the piano we pull back. Or when he plays his guitar I got him for Christmas, there is tension hanging in the air. Any mention of what we used to be makes us go silent, and us both wishing we could go back to what we had.
"Let's go, we need to find good seats" Trish said checking her phone for the time.
A&A
There are probably 150 students about to graduate. They will end up leaving their parents' house, and moving to the big city. Chasing their dreams while working at a restaurant because they can't afford to pay rent.
Their parents warned them, they wouldn't make it. But there is still hope. Hope that drives them to be successful. I still have hope, not for my career though. For me and Austin. His (used to be) constant, 'I will always love you's. Every time we hang out and I catch him looking at me, his blush. Austin said we would get married when he got out of college, but that seems so far from now, and we're not even together now, I don't even know if there will be a future for us.
But tonight is about Austin and Dez's future, not mine. Dez got an acceptance letter from a film school in Los Angeles, and he said he would be moving soon. Austin should be getting his letter this week, saying if he was accepted or not. He is really nervous, but I know he'll make it in. He's Austin Moon!
I heard Austin's name get called, and saw a familiar blonde mop of hair walking to the stage. I had texted him where Trish, me and his parents were sitting. He looked at us and we all waved, Austin smiled like he had won a million dollars and continued walking, but made his head turn to the side a bit and blew me a kiss.
No one else saw it, thankfully, but my blush didn't go unnoticed.
"Do you need a drink Ally? Your face is red" Mimi said, touching my hot face with her cold hand.
"Um, no I'm fine, it's just really warm in here" I lie.
After 20 more minutes, Dez walked to the stage. We waved and he waved back at us, and when he got his diploma everyone cheered because he was the last one, but they mostly were glad to leave.
Trish and I went to go find Austin and Dez. After a few minutes of useless searching, I called Austin's phone.
Austin: Bold Ally: Italics
Flermagaherhedgkjsejs….. (Supposed to be muffled voices)
Austin is that you? I can't find you! Where are you at?
Relax sweetheart, I'm in the parking lot, I just talked to Ryan Watson. He's throwing a huge party tonight and we are all invited!
Austin I'm not going to a party
Pleeeeaaaassseeee… Tonight is supposed to be fun. A party, that's all I'm asking
Fine- but only if Trish is coming
Yeah I'm coming- Trish's voice coming from Austin's side
Trish! You're outside?
Yeah, hurry up! We have a party to go to!
A&A
We pulled up to the party that was close to campus, but the house was on a private lawn. Most likely Ryan's parents owned this place.
As we walked in the smell of alcohol and the sound of blaring music surrounded us. Trish disappeared as we took in everything and came back with 4 beers.
"Drink" she said handing them out to us. Dez and Austin had no problem drinking theirs, but I was a different story.
"Trish- I- No I refuse to drink this!" I said, pushing the bottle away.
Austin wrapped his arm around my shoulder, "Come on loosen up, it probably will only take like 2 beers to get you in a party mood" Austin said.
I took the beer and chugged it down, trying to ignore the awful taste.
"Good" Trish said, "Now you're ready to party" she said putting another beer in my hand. Trish and Dez walked off leaving me and Austin standing alone.
"Wanna dance" Austin said with a goofy smile. I smiled back.
"Moon, you know I can't dance" I laughed.
"But it's always funny to see you try" he said putting more of his weight against the wall.
We sat in a comfortable silence until one of Austin's friends came up to him, "Austin, Reed Parker is playing beer pong against Mathew Sanders, and he's totally wasted, you have to see"
Austin started to follow him, but looked back at me.
"Austin I'm fine, go have fun" I said shooing him away from me.
"But-"
"No buts! Go" I said, pointing away.
Austin smiled and ran off following whoever just talked to him.
It wasn't but a minute when I felt another person beside me. I assumed it was Austin.
"How was the beer pong?" I asked, without turning my head.
"What?" a voice that clearly was Austin's replied.
I turned and saw Ryan Watson, a reasonably attractive guy, football team, single. No Ally. You love Austin. But if he really loved would he have left me? (Party and breakup)
"Sorry" I replied, "I thought you were someone else" I admitted.
"It's fine. Aren't you Austin's chick or something?" Ryan took a sip of his beer.
I swallowed the lump in my thought, "Um, it's kinda complicated" now I was the one who took a sip of beer.
"So, you're single" Ryan asked, stepping closer to me.
"At the moment" I smiled.
Ryan took out his phone and handed it to me, "Give me your number, I wanna see you again after this party".
I blushed and put in my number, and then Ryan dragged me onto the dance floor.
"I can't dance" I said.
"Neither can anyone else here, just have fun" Ryan yelled over the music.
Have fun. That's what I've been hearing the second I stepped into this madhouse. So that's what I'll do.
"I'll be back, I need another beer" I told Ryan.
I managed to make my way through the crowd and into the kitchen. I found an unopened beer on the counter and grabbed it. As I made my way out of the kitchen I passed the game room where there was a lot of shouting. I peeked in and saw Austin yelling at some guy who I didn't know.
I ran in and grabbed Austin's arm, "Babe calm down!" I shouted. All eyes were on me now, "Come on Austin, it's not worth it, I don't have time to take care of you this week" Austin looked down at me and sighed. I thought he was going to go with me, but he lunged at the other guy and punched him and a few other guys helped me drag Austin out of the room.
I took him outside on the back porch so we would be alone. I took a deep breath. "What the heck Austin?" I spat , "What's gotten into you? You're not like this!" I said.
Austin sighed and turned around, clenched his fists and slammed them onto the wooden railing surrounding us. "I know I'm not, and I shouldn't be, but what he said about you…" Austin closed his eyes and sank to the ground. I sat beside him and combed my fingers through his hair.
"What did he say Austin" I asked softly. Austin raised his eyes to look at me, "Disgusting things, Ally, I wanted him to be dead with what he talking about doing to you. Things that only I should be able to do to you" Austin froze realizing what he had said, and my eyes went wide as a distanced myself a bit away from Austin.
"I'm so sorry Ally, I'm so drunk right now" he apologized.
"It's fine" I said, tracing patterns onto his large hand.
"Of course it is, you know you secretly want me to do nasty things to you" Austin smirked.
"Austin" I said lowly. We were both drunk as hell, and thoughts could be turned into reality fast.
"And also, when you walked in, you called me babe" he half smiled.
"Force of habit" I said blandly
I stood up and tugged Austin's hand, making him stand up as well. I dragged him inside and put him on the couch.
"Can you get me a beer?" Austin asked.
"No"
"Pleeaaassseee" I looked at Austin who was giving me a puppy face that made him look like he was almost in pain.
I let out a sigh and got up heading to the kitchen and grabbed two beers.
I headed back to the couch and handed Austin one and sat down in his lap. As we drank I could feel Austin watching me like a predator stalking its prey
I turned to face him, "Austin, why are you looking at me like-" my words were cut off by his lips on mine. I kissed back, loving the feel of his tongue in my mouth, and the smell of alcohol on his breath. You shouldn't be doing this, sober Ally whispered into my conscious. But it's only a one time thing, we're both wasted and we won't remember anything in the morning.
I dropped my beer on the floor, and moved so I was straddling Austin and pinning him against the couch. Our tongues fought each other and our hands roamed each others bodies, causing us to moan with pleasure.
After a few minutes, Austin was shirtless and I was in a spaghetti strap tanktop, still making out on the couch, and Austin's boner was about to rip though his pants.
"Should we take this upstairs?" Austin asked, pulling away and cupping my butt with his hands.
I gave a smile and slight nod, and Austin picked me up and wrapped my legs around his waist, making his way through the crowd. When we reached the stairs, Austin's husky whisper filled my ears, "Everyone will know you're mine when they hear you screaming my name tonight" A huge smile filled my face and I started to lightly kiss Austin's neck.
"Hurry baby" I whispered, seductively dragging my nails across the back of his neck.
Austin opened the first door he saw, and threw me on the bed, practically tackling me and pinning me to the bed.
"I love you so much Ally" was the last thing I remember hearing, before I felt Austin ripping off my clothes, and me ripping off his.
"Are you sure about this?" Austin asked, positioning himself to enter me.
"Yes" I managed to get out in a whisper.
And that's how a night went from 4 friends going to party, turned into a night of hot, steamy pleasure.
