Thanks to everyone who reviews! You guys are the best.
So this chapter I'm doing it a little different I'm going to be switching from POV's
I hope you like it! And make sure to review!
Ally's POV
"We'll eat out mostly, it won't be that bad." Katherine smiled as we entered our hotel room.
We are staying in a hotel in L.A since my house- I mean my old house was already bought. We aren't staying for that long, just to plan and have Bay's funeral next week.
"Do you think you can run to the store and get the necessities, like things they didn't allow on the plane." Katherine asked with pleading eyes.
"Sure.' I smiled and grabbed my coat out of a luggage.
I walked to the nearest Target which wasn't that far. I could of taken the rental car but I could really use a walk right now.
I haven't called Austin since I tried earlier this week.
He's hasn't called me either. Maybe he really is moving on. Did we ever break up? I guess we did...
I don't want to believe it, I just can't, I never thought he would do this to-
"Woah " I heard a guy say as I bumped into him making him drop his groceries.
I must be way into my own thoughts.
"I'm so sorry I wasn't looking where I was going." I apologized helping him pick up his things.
"No really it's okay no big deal." He smiled looking at me.
No way...
"Ally?" Eliot asked in shock.
"Eliot!" I said in shock.
"What are you doing here? Aren't you suppose to be on tour?" He asked getting up.
"Yeah, I'm just taking a break." I smiled.
"Why would you want to? It's so cool!" He exclaimed.
"It's really a long story." I sighed.
"Well we can talk about it over dinner." He smiled.
"Eliot I don't think that's-" I started.
"Relax. I meant with Cassidy and I, we bought a place downtown together, you should stop by." He smiled.
"Wow. Umm. Yeah, I'd love too. But I don't think Cassidy would want to even-" I mumbled.
"Cassidy forgot about the whole thing, trust me she isn't mad anymore." He reassured me.
"Okay then , I'll go." I smiled.
"Alright come to this address at 7." He said handing me a piece of paper and walking off.
This should be good. Right?
I walked into target and got toothpaste, shampoo, conditioner, soap. The basic necessities. I walked to the check out and saw magazines of Austin all over the place. He's with Kira in all of them and looks like the picture of them kissing hasn't died down yet... I felt sick so I quickly payed and walked out of that place and back to the hotel.
I walked in to an empty hotel with a note.
*Went to go see some flower arrangements for the funeral be back soon.
I decided to get ready for the dinner and listen to the radio, haven't done that for a while...
I turned on the radio that the hotel had. It was the grand suite of the hotel so it was pretty nice,being a songwriter of a famous teen celebrity has its perks.
By perks I mean pay check.. And other things.
I turned on the radio hopefully to clear my head for a while and one of Austin's songs came up.
"Really?" I whined turning it off.
I finished getting ready in silence and looked at the clock it was 6:45 so I figured I better start heading down town to go see Eliot and Cassidy. Woah. Never though I would talk to them ever again...
I hopped in the rental car and drove to the address. The GPS led me to a small one story home but it had its modern look to it. I smiled getting out and I walked up to the door way.
Before I could even knock I was opened by yet again, Eliot.
"Oh! Hey Ally!" He smiled.
"Hi." I smiled.
"Come on in. I was just about to go get paprika." He mumbled.
"Paprika?" I laughed.
"Yeah I forgot it and Cass is going nuts." He laughed.
"Cassidy hates cooking." I laughed.
"Not anymore." He laughed.
"Really?" I asked surprised.
"We'll I'll be back in a bit. She's in the kitchen." He smiled.
I never thought I would of ever said one nice thing to him after what he did to me. But he still has a good heart. I just played with it. And I feel guilty.
"Okay." I breathed in walking to the kitchen. Hopefully she isn't mad anymore.
I walked in and she was wearing an apron she had flour on her face. The whole thing.
"Hey Cassidy." I smiled shyly.
"Ally!" She said having the biggest smile on her face. She comes over to hug me. As long as she doesn't start choking me I think I'll be okay.
Austin's POV
"Austin your on in five." Dez said reminding me from backstage.
Come on Ally, pick up, pick up, pick up. Voice mail. Of course.
It's not like I shouldn't be surprised. I just wish she would of stopped being mad at me. I went all the way to Miami with her, she knows I didn't want to leave her, SHE kicked ME out! Remember!? I just don't know why she doesn't at least talk to me.
God I miss her. I miss her voice, her smile, her chewing her hair before every show I play. It's just not the same without her. I just need to hear her voice.
She has never called me even once. Has she?
I scroll down on my phone for received calls and I find one. It said we talked for thirty seconds. Thirty seconds!? I don't even remember talking to her for one second.
I clicked on the call and it was about a week ago.
The week I lost my phone. And it was in Kira's room the whole time.
That's it.. I'm a kill her.
"How can you not know who it was!?" I screamed.
"I thought it was one of your fans or something I didn't know it was Ally!" She pleaded.
"Have you ever heard on something called caller I.D!" I yelled.
"I'm sorry I didn't know it was her, really!" She sighed.
"We'll it was! And you aren't my girlfriend and you will never be!" I yelled slamming the door to the tour bus.
I feel bad yelling at her, even though I know I shouldn't. And now I'm worried because she might tell Jimmy and her could drop me from the record label.
But yelling and getting all my anger out, kind of felt good.
I called Ally again. Same. No Answer. And now I feel like an idiot.
Kira told her we were dating, and I need to set things straight.
Please Ally pick up...
Ally's POV
"Why are you talking to that jerk?!" Trish screamed on the other end of the phone.
Is it weird that I missed her angry ways?
"Trish he apologized and I kinda deserved what he gave me." I sighed.
"You did not deserve a slap on the face!" She screamed.
"Can we stop fighting, please." I breathed.
"Fine. So I called to let you know that we're gonna be there for Bay's funeral Saturday." She sighed sadly.
"How is Katherine doing?" She asked.
"Honestly, she's okay through out the day if her mind is occupied, but she always breaks down." I sighed.
"I understand- What!? Coming!" Trish screamed making me pull the phone away from my ear.
"Sorry Ally, I got to go. I miss you." She said quickly.
"I miss you... Too." I sighed but she already hung up before I could say it all.
I stared at my ring, and it reminded me of the person I truly missed. Austin.
"Miss me already?" Eliot laughed coming inside their guest bedroom.
I've been staying over with them because I think it's a good idea to give Katherine and my Dad some space and because they help me keep my mind off things. The night of dinner I explained to them EVERYTHING and they were really understanding. Cassidy and I are finally getting back to how we once more and same with Eliot and I'm happy about that.
"Haha." I laughed sarcastically.
"Hey guys where are you?" We heard Cassidy call from the hallway.
"In here!" Eliot yelled.
She walked in smiling and kissed Eliot before sitting on the bed. I have to admit. Their pretty cute together.
"So guess what!" She said in her cheery voice.
"What?" Eliot and I said in unison.
"I have a coupon for the nail salon!" She squealed as Eliot sighed.
"Which means?" I asked confused.
"Which means she wants to go and she's going to make me go." Eliot frowned.
"Yup! Lets go!" Cassidy smiled basically dragging us out of the house.
Austin's POV
"Austin come on! You can't just mope around all day hugging that dolphin!" Dez said trying to push me off my bed but I wouldn't budge.
"His name is Dougie." I corrected him.
"Come on buddy! It's your last show of the week." He said taking the blankets off me.
"Fine."'I sighed getting up.
I reached for my phone and I decided just to call her one more time.
It rang and rang and just as I though I was going to hear the voicemail she picked up.
Let me rephrase that.. He picked up.
"Ally?" I said into the phone.
"Austin?" I heard a guys voice ask.
"Who's this!" I yelled clearly a little pissed.
"Hey Austin. It's um Eliot." He said.
"Put Ally on the phone!" I yelled.
I heard muffles and laughing.
"Ally's a little busy right now." He laughed.
Just about then I heard another laugh. Ally's laugh.
"St-stop!" She laughed.
"Put her on the phone!" I yelled.
"I told you she is a little busy." He laughed.
My heart sank just thinking of what they can be doing.
"I'll make sure she calls you back." He laughed and then hanged up the phone.
What the hell did I just overhear!?
Ally's POV
"Please! St- stop!" I laughed.
"It tickles to much!" I laughed.
I'm surprising having a good day today. Cassidy and Eliot are being so nice to me. There my only friends in L.A because everyone else left for college and well.. You know where my other friends are...
Right now we are at the nail salon and a lady is scrubbing my feet and I'm dying of laughter. I don't know how Cassidy just sits there not even stifling a laugh. I've been squirming around in the chair for the past five minutes!
Her and Eliot right now are laughing at me in amusement.
The lady stopped scrubbing my feet and I wiped away a few tears that I let out.
"Haven't laughed like that in a while." I said still giggling.
"I didn't know you were so ticklish Ally!" Cassidy laughed.
"Yeah.. Oh before I forget Austin called." Eliot smiled.
"What? Did you answer?" I asked quickly.
"Yeah. I told him you 'd call him back." Eliot smiled.
My eyes were wide and I froze.
"What? Was I not supposed to?" Eliot asked nervously.
"No it's fine, it's just uh.. Austin doesn't know I'm with you." I stuttered.
"Wait? Does he know I'm with Cassidy?" Eliot asked as I shook my head.
"And that's a problem?" He asked again.
Knowing Austin, he always assumes the worst...
Austin's POV
"Come on just calm down man." Dez sighed as I paced back and forth in our room.
"How the fuck am I suppose to calm down when my girlfriend is cheating on me!" I screamed.
"We don't know that! And well.. She thinks you cheated on her..So..." Dez sighed.
"But I didn't!" I yelled.
"I know that, but she doesn't.." Dez said.
"Your not helping!" I yelled.
"Look buddy, I'm pretty sure you just heard wrong. Ally loves you." Dez said making me smile.
"I hope so." I sighed.
"I know so." Dez said reassuring me.
Would Ally really do this? Maybe that's why she never said she loved me back. Maybe she stopped loving me?
Did she do something with Eliot? Even with the ring I gave her? No! I can't let that happen. I need to go see her, I can't wait or stall any longer.
"Well I'm a go find out:" I said standing up.
"You can't just leave, besides we'll see her on Saturday." Dez smiled.
"What? What's on Saturday?" I asked.
"Trish didn't tell you?" Dez asked as I shook my head.
"Bay's funeral is on Saturday in L.A" he said. That's news to me.
Maybe that's why she was with Eliot?
I still have to find out. I need to know that the girl I love, still loves me. I need to know that she is still mine.
Ally's POV
You really think Austin thinks you cheated on him, with him?" Cassidy asks me and pointing at Eliot who was sitting across from us at a booth.
We were at Pizza Palace I feel like I haven't been here in forever but it doesn't feel the same without Trish, Dez and Austin.
"I know Austin! And he always assumes the worst and now he has another girlfriend." I said sadly.
"Well we don't know that for sure." Cassidy said soothing me.
"Thanks for everything today guys. I had fun!" I smiled at them.
"Anytime Ally." they both smiled. Even if they both hated me at some point they really were great people and friends.
"Hey Ally?" they said and made me turn around.
"I know that I didn't get to go to your birthday because well, you know.." she continued.
"So I wanted to give you something." she said handing me a box.
"Cassidy you didn't have to -" I started but she cut me off.
"Open it!" she smiled.
I laughed at her enthusiasm and I opened it. Inside was a beautiful necklace that had a heart. It was so pretty.
"Cassidy Thank you!" I smiled.
"Its from both of us." she smiled. You don't recognized it?" she laughed. I looked at it again and I realize what I was actually holding in my hands.
"Oh .. My... God." I said in shocked.
Tears swelled my eyes as I attacked her with a giant hug and she laughed and hugged back.
Flashback:
"I'm so sorry about your mom, I know exactly how you feel!" I told Cassidy who was crying as she sat next to me on the beach.
"It's just-just so hard Ally." she cried.
I hugged her and I felt so bad. So helpless. I was admiring the necklace my mother gave me before she passed. The beautiful silver heart that had diamonds on the right side was plain and on the other.
I looked at Cassidy the girl who used to bully me and now look where we are.
"Cassidy, I want you to have something." I said taking of the necklace.
"Ally that's your moms! I can't take that!" she protested.
"My mom told me that it held her heart, and whenever I wear it. I'd carry her with me." I said my eyes kind and hers too.
"It holds your moms now too." I said smiling at putting the necklace around her neck.
"Thanks Ally." she said smiled.
End of flashback
"I can believe you kept it." I said tears already streaming down my face. Now she was crying to. Eliot just sat there smiling at us.
"Of course I did Ally, you were there for me when no one was." she said sighing.
"I was so stupid for being mad at you for so long." she sighed.
"Lets just forget everything." I smiled. And so did she.
"Are you sure you want me to have it?" I asked again.
"It was always yours." she smiled.
"Thanks." I said smiling wiping the tears of joy.
I totally forgot about the necklace and it really does mean a lot to both of us. I put it on and I felt her. I felt her hug. I felt her telling me that she was with me and always be.
My dad called and I figured it was time to come home- I mean, the hotel.
I said goodbye to Cassidy and Eliot which i invited to Bay's funeral and then I made my way back to the hotel.
I walked in and Katherine was sitting in the kitchen looking at some flowers.
"Oh honey! Your back!" She smiled walking over to me engulfing me in a hug.
"Yeah." I smiled.
"What do you think of these." She asked pointing at the flowers.
"Their beautiful." I smiled.
"The flowers are daisy's and the leaves are.. There bay leafs." She smiled.
"I think it's going to be exactly what Bay wanted." I smiled.
"I hope so." She hummed. I gripped her shoulder for comfort and then walked to a room.
"Oh honey!" I heard her call.
"Yeah?" I asked.
"I was snooping around the hotel earlier, you should see what's in the third room down the hall. I think you'll like it." She said as I made my way to the room.
I opened it and smiled. There was a small piano in the room. I sat down and took a deep breath and let my fingers linger on the keys and then I started playing.
I played, getting lost in it. I closed my eyes imagining Austin and my mom next to me.
My dad smiling sitting on the couch and Katherine next to him carrying Bay in her lap.
Trish and Cassidy smiling swaying to the rhythm. Dez doing his weird one man slow dances.
I was still playing when I felt two hands around my shoulders.
I must be really deep in thought. I could feel warmth through my body.
It's the affect Austin has on me. I don't open my eyes just keep playing imaging Austin with me. Except I don't think I'm imagining.
The hands move an a warm breath comes to my ear.
"Your so beautiful." I heard the voice whisper. I opened my eyes and stopped playing and looked to see he was in the room.
"Ahhh!" I screamed.
"Sorry Alls, I didn't mean to scare you." he said nervously rubbing his neck.
"You scared the living-" I cut myself off.
oh my god..
"Austin? What are you doing here?" I asked shocked.
"I couldn't be away from you anymore." He said. I wanted him to kiss him senseless but I also want to be mad at him.
"Aren't you scared Kira's going to find out.." I said flatly.
"Ally you don't understand I don't like her at all. She isn't my girlfriend and she will never be." he said taking my hands but I pulled them away.
He was going to continue but his eyes gazed to my necklace.
"Who gave you that?" he asked pointing at my moms necklace.
"Eliot and Cas-" I started.
"Eliot? So you are talking to him again?" he said walking over to the window and he clenched his fist and teeth.
"Austin if its about the phone call I-" I started but he cut me off.
"I really don't want to know more about that!" he snapped.
He looked at me and then held my left hand and fiddled with my ring.
"Did you?" he asked. I was confused but I realized what he was trying to ask.
I laughed, I laughed a lot. Which seemed to upset him.
"Austin." I started.
"I was getting my foot scrubbed by an old Asian lady." I laughed.
"But Eliot-" he started.
"Cassidy and Eliot took me to go get a pedicure and you called while some lady was harassing my foot ." I said and his face seemed to relax.
"Nothing happened." I reassured him smiling.
"Thank god." He sighed.
"I miss you Alls, I miss us." he said pulling me in by the waist.
"How about we just forget about everything?" I suggested. He nodded.
"And I missed you too." I smiled.
"And my virginity is still in tact." I laughed.
"Mmmm. Good." Austin smirked and kissed me passionately. It was well needed I missed his lips. His warmth, his touch. Finally I feel like everything will be okay.
Austin's POV
I kissed her until air was needed.
Or else I would of probably never stopped.
I'm so glad she didn't do anything and it was all a misunderstanding.
I wanted to come and barge into the hotel start screaming but she just looked so peaceful playing the piano I know she was in her "Ally World."
"Ally?" I said and she looked up.
"I love you.. And I'm so sorry.. For everything." I said smiling and she smiled too.
"It's okay, I just want us to go back to us.. And I love you more." she said smiling.
Finally the words I've been wanting to here since what seems like forever!
I finally heard them.
"Not possible." I said kissing her passionately and hard on the lips. I missed them so much. I never wanted to let go and after everything's thats happened. I don't think I'll be able too.
