Chapter 18:
Hey guys thank you for your patience! Now for the next chapter!
Make sure to review!
Ally's POV
"When did you two meet?" one lady asked from the audience while she looked at us inattentively with a pen and paper in her hands.
"Probably when we were born." Austin smiled and looked over to me.
"Yeah our parents were close friends." I agreed.
Today we were at a press conference. It has been a whole month! I can't believe it! A whole month.
Austin and I were scheduled a press conference today and we've been so busy.
I feel like now that the album is out, he doesn't really need me. I haven't really spent time with him since the album came out, well not in private anyway. Whenever we are together, we either working on meetings and interviews or we're working on music and star records. But we rarely hang out, but we both know things have changed and it's going to be like this for a while. What can you expect? He's a new superstar!
After the conference I went into my dressing room to be attacked by people with cameras but I've kind of been getting used to it.
"Move it people!" Trish said pushing them out of the way.
"Thank god." I breathed as we both entered the dressing room.
"Where's Dez?" I asked Trish.
"He's – Yes, hello? Yes they will be there!" Trish said into her phone. She's our manager now and she's doing a good job at it but I just miss my best friend, all of them.
She gave me an apologetic smile and then stepped outside the dressing room.
This is crazy. But as long as Austin is living his dream I'm happy.
"Okay Ally we have to get your hair done for the next interview." She said grabbing my arm.
"Really?" I whined.
"Yes. Just one more." She smiled and dragged me out of the dressing room.
On the way there we saw Austin being pulled by Dez to the other side of the building.
Passing each other he stopped.
"Hey Alls." He smiled.
"Hey." I smiled.
"Come on!" Trish and Dez said in unison.
We both traded our apologetic smiled and then let ourselves be dragged away.
Hours Later (Ally's POV)
"Dad I'm home." I walked into the house.
"In the kitchen!" I heard him yell. I walked to the living room and slumped myself on the couch.
"Bad day?" he asked.
"The worst." I said closing my eyes.
"Good." He said.
"What?" I said sitting up.
He pulled out lasagna from the oven and my taste buds started to dance already.
My dad's famous lasagna would beat anyone's in the country! Literally!
But he only makes it during special occasions, or when something's wrong.
"Dad is everything okay?" I asked walking over to the counter In the kitchen.
"Honey, I know you have your heart set on this music career but-"
"Dad what's going on?" I asked feeling angry.
"I don't think it's the best idea." He said calmly.
"What if it doesn't work out, wouldn't you want something to fall back on?" he asked.
"I guess, but dad it's what I've always wanted." I said trying to think over this.
"Are you sure because I thought this, is what you've always wanted." He said pulling out a sheet of paper.
"Honey, I'm sorry I applied for you behind your back, but… You got in." he smiled.
I took the paper and saw what it read. I got accepted to the University of Miami. OH MY GOD.
"Dad I-" I said sitting down still staring at the paper.
"You don't have to say anything, your welcome." He said hugging me.
"Thanks." I said glumly.
"Come on let's eat." He said cutting a piece of the lasagna.
But by the time he served it I was already locked in my room.
What am I gonna do? I can't leave Austin. This is his dream. I mean our dream.
I'm just gonna have to tell my dad that I'm not going. He'll be devastated.
But college doesn't start until September so I have time to think about it. Should I think about it?
"Thanks Mr. Dawson!" I heard Trish yell and then she opened the door to my room.
"Hey Ally." She said walking in with a plate of lasagna.
"Your dad made lasagna and you're not eating it.. Something's wrong." She said reading me like an open book.
"Trish I uh." I said walking over to her.
"Umm." I said while she gave me a confused look. I passed her the paper and her eyes widened as she put down her plate.
"Ally! That's great! It's what you've always wanted." She smiled.
"Wait but, Austin." She said realizing why I'm not as happy as I should be.
"Exactly." I sighed.
"What are you gonna do?" she asked.
"What should I do?" I asked.
"You've got time, just think about it." She smiled and then walked to our closet.
"Which one?" she said holding up two different dresses.
"Where are you going?" I asked.
"I'm going out with Mike, I haven't spent much time with him." She said looking at the dresses.
"I say the yellow one." I said while she smiled and went into the bathroom. I heard the shower start and I went back downstairs. I sat on the couch that not too long ago, Austin and I were normal teenagers watching a movie. I see him all the time, but it feels like we've never been more further away from each other.
Eliot is at Arts and Crafts Camp teaching kids how to paint and other sorts, Dez is probably working on one of Austin's videos, Trish is going out with Mike, Cassidy is busy with her family. I just don't know what to do. I called Austin several times but he doesn't pick up.
Ding dong!
I sighed as I got up from the couch.
I walked to the door and opened it.
Revealing absolutely no one. Really?
"Boo!"
"Ahhhh!" I screamed falling to the floor from being scared.
I looked up to see Austin laughing his head off.
He offered me his hand but I didn't take it.
"I officially hate you." I glared at him while getting up on my own.
"You – you should have seen your face!" he laughed holding onto his stomach.
"And- and then you went all Armadillo mode!" he laughed pointing to the floor.
I didn't want to smile, but I did.
"What are you doing here?" I asked surprised to see him.
"I came to get you." He said his laughs turning into silent giggles.
"What do you mean?" I asked.
"We haven't spent any time together and it's killing me." He said seriously.
"Austin we're with each other every day." I laughed.
"You know what I mean." Austin snickered.
"Yeah, but it's gonna have to be like this for a while." I sighed.
"I know, but that's why I thought we could hang out tonight." He smiled.
"Okay." I smiled.
"Let me go change and tell my dad." I said as he nodded.
He walked to his car while I went upstairs and found a note saying that my dad left for yet, another business trip. And I didn't eat lasagna with him…
After I got ready and headed out the door.
I looked over to his car while I locked the door and I could faintly hear the song "Fallin for you" by R5 playing.
I looked at Austin and he was dancing in his seat pretending to play the drums.
He noticed me and quickly turned the car stereo off while I made my way to the passenger seat.
"Ready to go?" he asked.
"Yup." I smirked.
"What?" he asked.
I mimicked the way he was playing the drums and sang
"You can dance in the rain, rocking second hand chic!"
I laughed.
"You saw that?" he asked.
"And heard it." I laughed.
"There cool! Man, whatever.." he said zipping through the streets.
I just laughed.
"So where are we going?" I asked.
"The carnival." He smiled.
This should be fun…..
Austin's POV
"Wasn't that fun?" I asked Ally who was walking out of the roller coaster of terror. Her face was pale and she her eyes were wide.
"I'm gonna throw up!" she said running into the bathroom.
"Well isn't she a keeper." The man selling cotton candy said to me.
I smiled at him and then saw Ally walking back out.
"Did you throw up?" I laughed.
"No false alarm." She breathed.
"Alright good, let's go on the Ferris wheel!" I exclaimed pulling her arm.
On our way there were couple people who asked for pictures and auto graphs, which I was kind of getting used to.
We got on the Ferris wheel and slowly made out way to the top.
Once up there we stopped as Ally was on the floor of the cart hugging the pole in the middle with her legs wrapped around it and her eyes shut. Got a love her..
"Ally, come on look at this view!" I said looking out to the city.
"No!" she retorted and hugged the pole even tighter.
"Come on, just sit next to me you'll be fine." I said padding the spot next to me.
"Oh-kay." She said slowly getting up.
She sat next to me and then opened her eyes and looked down. She yelled and literally jumped on me and pulled my shirt.
She saw my shocked face and let go.
"Sorry." She mumbled.
I really didn't mind though…
She is so cute when she is scared.
"Ally I want to give you something." I said nervously.
Ally's POV
Get me down. Now!
I think Austin forgot about my fear of heights!
How did I even let him take me up here?! I feel like I'm thousands of feet of the ground. I need to get down. Now.
"Ally I want to give you something." He said nervously rubbing his neck.
He pulled out a little black box. He opened it as we moved higher up on the ferris wheel.
Once I saw what was in the box I forgot about the height, the fact that I'm ten million feet off the ground and if thing falls I'd die, I just focused on the beautiful thing in the box.
My eyes widened and I looked back to Austin who was giving me a hopeful smile.
No it wasn't a ring! But it was a beautiful necklace that had a silver treble cleff and a gold 'A' and they were perfectly intertwined together. It looked so expensive.
"Oh no, you don't like it do you? I knew I should off gone with the-" he started saying but I shut him up by pulling myself in his arms.
"Austin I love it." I exclaimed.
He just smiled at me for a while.
"So are you gonna put it on me?" I said turning around so my back was facing him.
He took it out of the box and moved my hair to the side. I felt shivers down my body by his touch. He put it over my neck and then clicked the clamp together at the back. I looked down at it and it was just.. perfect.
"Austin I love it! Thank you! But why?" I smiled.
"One, I got my paycheck so I was bored. Two, I gave it to you because I wouldn't have all this if It wasn't for you." He said smiling.
I knew I was flushing red but I didn't try to hide it.
"What does the 'A' stand for?" I asked.
"Whatever you want it to stand for." He smiled.
"I want it to mean both of us as in Austin and Ally." I said smiling.
"Perfect." He laughed.
I sat there comfortably as we were moving farther down. I stared at Austin and he noticed.
"Why are you looking me like that?" he laughed.
"Because your just so damn handsome." I laughed mocking him from when we were at the beach.
"So I have been told." He laughed. I rolled my eyes and nudged him.
"So, I have one more surprise." He said as we stepped out of the ferris wheel.
"There's more?" I asked eagerly.
"Yup! Come on!" he said pulling me around like a rag doll.
We stopped at a stage where people were performing. He made his way to the front of the crowd to the first row and sat me down on a seat that was right in the middle.
"Austin what-" I started.
"Just sit here." He demanded.
I sat down and he jumped on the stage. The crowd immediately started screaming one they realized who he was.
I saw Dez come to the stage and hand Austin a micro phone and a guitar. Dez is here? Was this all planned?
"Hey everyone! I'm Austin Moon and I'm a sing for you!: he said cheerfully while the crowd started to scream and whistle.
"Well not exactly." He said. "I usually sing songs my partner Ally writes but, this time I'm singing a song I wrote, for her." He smiled. Everyone awed and cheered. Austin wrote a song? For me?
"Ally Dawson this one is for you!" he smiled into the microphone and then looked at me.
"This is my first song and it's called.. You." He said and then winked at me.
I must look as red as a tomato right now. My cheeks re burning and I have a weird new feeling stirring up inside.
He started strumming his guitar and then started to sing.
"Hey do you remember?
How we would stay up all night.
Talking about our destiny.
And you played the piano, and I would strum on my guitar, those were the days.
If only you could see me now, I live my dream, I owe it all to you!
I owe it all to you!
Isn't it crazy! Isn't it crazy! It's all because of you!
It's all because of you!
It's all because of you!
I know that if the sky would fall, I'd survive it all! Because of you!
Ohh!
Hey, yeah, hey ,yeah
It's all because of you!"
(If you guys haven't heard this song go to YouTube and only type in : Austin and Ally You, the video is too cute!)
He sang.
The crowd Awed and cheered and I was still sitting there shocked and expression less.
The crowd loved it. I loved it. Austin wrote that song… For me.
"Thank you everyone!" he said into the microphone and then ran towards me.
"So?!" he asked smiling.
"Austin I-" I said but I really didn't know what to say.
"Ally I could never do what I do without you, and I put this night together to show you that."he said grabbing my hands.
I didn't know what came over me or I didn't know what the results would be for my actions would be but I grabbed Austin by his shirt and pulled him in. I crashed my lips into his and I could tell he was shocked because he was stiff at first but then he loosened up and put his arms around my waist and pulled me in tighter. I smiled throughout the kiss and so did he because I could feel his lips curve on mine. We both are surprised at we were doing but it felt so right. My hands were still on his shirt and I was on my tippy toes. I knew people were staring but I didn't care.
The way his lips felt against mine made me never want to let go. They moved perfectly together but we finally stopped for air.
"Wow, I have to write songs more often." He breathed.
This caused me to smile and he pulled me in again. He pecked my lips softly and then laughed looking at my lips. He kissed them again but longer and then we parted.
"You have no idea how bad I've been wanting to do that." He breathed.
I laughed and bit my lip. "Oh really?" I laughed.
"Mhmm." He said pulling me in for another kiss.
We parted and he smiled at my lips and then met my eyes.
"So I'm guessing you liked the song?" he smiled.
"I loved it." I said pecking him once more. I can't believe what I'm doing.
"How did you come up with it?" I asked still surprised he wrote a song by himself and the fact that I'm kissing him.
"I know, I'm shocked too but I had really good inspiration.' He said smiling down at me.
"Oh really, tell me about this inspiration." I smirked.
"Well she's absolutely perfect, about that tall." He said putting his hand over my head.
"Oh and she's my best friend." He smiled while I hugged him.
"There's only one problem." He said backing away from the hug.
I gave him a weird look and he smiled down at his feet and then looked back to me.
"She's my best friend and I'm absolutely crazy about her." He smiled.
I felt a new sensation of butterflies in my stomach as I blushed.
"And the problem?" I asked biting my lip.
"She has another guy." He said sadly.
Oh no! She does! I mean I does! I mean do! Oh no! This is bad..
Austin's POV
Ally's smile disappeared when I told her that. I guess she completely forgot about Eliot and is now realizing what we've been doing for the past five minutes. Best five minutes of my life!
I don't know why I didn't do this earlier. She's just so…. Wow.
And her lips are so… Wow. Just Wow.
She's been here all along, why did it take me this long to realize what I feel for her.
And the kiss… just what I suspected the fireworks, the feeling, everything wrapped up in one.
I kissed her about a minute ago and I'm already missing her lips.
"Austin this is bad, I have a boyfriend." She said worried.
"Don't tell me you don't have feelings for me?" I said now feeling anger.
"I do! I always have! But- I have a boy friend!" she exclaimed.
"No you don't." I heard a sad voice come from the crowd.
We both turned and saw Eliot standing there with a tear coming down his face.
Was he here the whole time? Boy, did we give him a show. I thought trying not to smirk.
"Eliot!" Ally said running off to him.
"Please wait!" she yelled.
"No!" he yelled.
"I thought you really liked me, but I guess I was wrong!" he yelled walking away.
"Eliot please." Ally insisted.
"Do you love him?" he screamed.
"Eliot I-" she started.
"Do you love him!?" he yelled louder, frightening her, which caused me to walk towards them.
She didn't say anything which hurt a little but he just huffed and kept walking.
"Please just let me explain!" she said grabbing his arm.
"Don't touch me!" he said and slapped her across the floor.
Son of a Bitch.
The next ten minutes of anger were filled of hate, anger and blood.
He literally just lit a time bomb inside of me. No one touches Ally!
I ran up to him and punched him in the face.
HE tried fighting back but I didn't let him.
I kept swinging until I couldn't hear his groans.
"Don't you ever fucken touch her again!" I yelled. I was about to punch him again but that's when I realized Ally running off crying.
Ally's POV
What just happened? How can it be so good and then so bad so fast?
I'm such an idiot I just broke Eliot's heart. But I never thought he would hit me, but he did and I just cant believe it.
"Ally stop!" Austin said reaching up to me.
"Just go away." I said still running.
He obviously didn't do that, instead he ran faster and picked me up and sat down on the dark side walk with me on top of him.
I cried into his neck not really wanting to give in, but it was the only thing I could really do right now.
"I'm sorry Alls this is all my fault." He said looking down at me while he stroked my head.
"Did you kill him?" I asked into his neck.
He let out a laugh but then answered.
"No, but trust me I wanted too.": he said honestly clear in his voice.
"How is this your fault?" I questioned looking up at him.
"Because I." he said turning me around so I was facing him completely.
"I fell in love with my best friend." He said smiling looking straight into my eyes. Love? Austin loves me…..
