A/N ~ THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU for all the reviews, follows, and favorites! I've been in a slump these past few days, and almost all yesterday my phone was blowing up with notifications from you guys! You made me happier than ever, and I think you all deserve to know what happens next! I AM gonna make this a full length story and I want you to contribute ideas! Together, we can create something awesome :)
Now, on with the story!
Also: Austin is underlined, Ally is italic, Both when underlined and italic!
Ally's POV:
I just gave Austin a "you already know" look and we put back on our shirts. He started to fumble for the keys, but he didn't need to because someone swung the door wide open.
I swear I could hear Austin's heart beat out of his chest, same as mine.
"It's over," I sadly thought."It's my first day, and I don't even attend class. I make out with a guy I met just a day ago..."
We were told that we had to serve an hour and a half detention after school, and after we called our parents. A lot of people seemed disappointed in Austin for his actions and surprisingly he didn't seem to care. I found out that Austin and I actually have the same classes, and administrator escorted us to our second period.
I'm not sure how I should feel about the people in my class. As soon as I walked through the door Dallas and his group of 4 others laughed. Cassidy gave me a sickly sweet smile. Dez smiled and waved. All the others just disregarded me (I was actually happy about that, considering what happened on the bus.) and with that I stood in front of the class waiting for a teacher. When Austin followed behind me I swear the entire room lit up...I've never seen anything like it. It was like he was a superstar.
He gracefully approached his seat and sat down. He looked at me...and a smile started to creep across his face, and my eyes were attached to his pearly whites. I was brought back to reality when the teacher asked me to introduce myself, and when I did I was a mess. "Hi, I'm new. I mean my name isn't New, it's Abby. I mean Ally! I, um..." I forced a smile, then just put my head down. The teacher gave me a weird look, then told me to sit anywhere. I scanned the area, and found the perfect seat: Austin to my right, Dez to my left, a Latina (or Mexican?) in front of me, and a brunette with brown eyes sitting behind me.
I hurried there, and when I sat the teacher continued his lesson. As soon as I got settled a note hit my desk it was a folded yellow paper with "A" on it and a small 1 in the corner. I opened it up and it said:
We should get to know each other, especially after everything. Don't ya think? Here's my number!
And there it was.
I wrote back:
Definitely. In detention we can start, I'm not doing shit else. Guess we can text, so here's my #.
I put it back on his desk. We wrote notes through all the that period. And the next. And the one after. During lunch I met Patrisha (She told me to just call her Trish.) and Elliot, the boy and girl who sits behind and in front of me. Only me, Trish, Dez, and Austin sat together. It was amazing we were talking as if we knew one another for years. I felt like I could call these people my...my...
friends.
We returned to class and Austin and I sent more notes. All of them had letters on the front and little numbers in the corner. I could tell they meant something, but could not for the life of me figure out what. I decided to give up it for now because something told me that I'll know when the time is right.
Trish and Dez also handed me their numbers, and inside I was happygolucky! I was fucking losing it, I was so happy. I couldn't stop smiling. My cheeks started to hurt. Before I knew it, it was time to go. Not sure why, but I laughed and went to detention. Austin came in not a second later.
They sat as far away from each other, and the person watching us simply told us to do the work and he left to go to the bathroom. We looked at each other and smiled.
*Through Text*
Wow, you've got a lot going on.
Tell me about it.
So you and your siblings...all your names start with A?
Yup. Anthony is the oldest, then Alicia, Antonio, me, and Alexander. Jamie Axel is a close family friend, and we all call him Axel.
Wish I had family like that...
You don't?
I have a deceased brother and sister, and my only other sibling is in college and I haven't spoke to her since she left. My parents aren't together, I live with my dad.
...
Speechless?
Actually, no. At 10:00 tonight be ready, you're gonna come to my place.
And you JUST KNEW I was gonna give you my address?
I'm psychic...!
Lucky for you I'm not doing anything tonight...
Lucky for YOU I'm slicker than my own hair and I'll be able to get this done without getting caught.
If that was the case, then what the hell happened earlier?
Shut up!
Haha, victory is mine.
Yeah, we'll see. I've been meaning to ask, what happened to you? Those bruises?
...
As a wise woman said once said speechless?
It was Dallas, okay? I was just trying to get some food and he came out of nowhere. Need I say more?
DALLAS?! Why would he do that?
Do I really have to explain?
Oh, but Ally, you do.
*sigh*...
I told him everything, and I looked over occasionally to see what his reactions were. He was bipolar as all hell, one minute it was taking all his willpower NOT to hurl his phone across the room; the next he had the saddest expression. I couldn't looking at him, it hurt. But I couldn't stop myself. When have I EVER been able to stop myself from letting my eyes gaze upon Austin? After depression hour was over, he typed something I didn't expect him to.
Last summer we met, we started as friends, I can't tell you how it all happened...
I couldn't help but finish.
Then autumn it came, we were never the same, those nights everything felt like magic...
He didn't stop to my astonishment.
And I wonder if you miss me too.
If you don't it's the one thing that I wish you knew.
Even MORE to my astonishment, he got up out of his seat and started to sing the next verse. My legs compelled me to get up and move, I certainly didn't have plans on doing such. We slowly started walking toward each other...and for some weird reason I was singing too. We'd each sing a verse. We were in perfect harmony.
I think about you, every morning when I open my eyes.
I think about you, every evening when I turn out the lights.
I think about you, every moment every day of my life.
You're on my mind, all the time, it's true.
We finally met up with each other and our hands locked. We put our heads together, our noses touching. We closed our eyes at the same time.
I think about you...you, you, you, you...
I opened my eyes to find that his were already open.
"So you watch that show, huh?" I smirked. "Clearly you do, too." He chuckled. I squeezed his hand. "We should probably sit back down..." I said, a little dejected. "Why?" , bothered. I giggle and say, "Because our teacher just flushed the toilet after an hour and fifteen minutes," I listened some more. "And is now washing his hands..." Austin may be a lot of things, but stupid isn't one of them...
I cannot tell you how fast he was back at his seat. Then Austin started to laugh, and I had a confused look on my face; until I saw the teacher smiling at me.
I had to stay an extra 20 minutes.
Dad had to pick me up, and the car ride was anything but pleasant. Even though we weren't talking, there was this really uncomfortable silence.
When we got home, he told me to go to my room. He followed me there, and slammed the door after I entered. I heard a click, and instantly ran back to jiggle the knob. "You'll come out when you stop with the bullshit," Dad yelled. I put my back against it the door and leaned up against it. Slowly sliding down, I started to cry myself to sleep.
Austin's POV:
I had it saw it all.
I saw Ally walk into her room and get locked in by her very pissed off father. She turned around and let herself drop to the ground. Ally lifted her head up, eyes closed, and silently she let the tears fall. Instead of staring, I called her. Ally didn't open her eyes, she just pulled her phone out of her pocket. She opened them for a millisecond, just to answer the call.
"I remember life before, far away dreams and locking doors. Then you came, then you came." I began.
Ally smiled a little and started her verses. "Afraid to fall, to be free. Always my own worst enemy. Isn't what, what you see."
I inhaled, and started again. "I took time to realize that I couldn't do it by myself, myself."
We nailed it once again. Together we sung, "There's no gravity...when you're next to me. You will always break my fall like a parachute. When you're holding me...so weightless I can barely breathe. You always break my fall my fall like a parachute. You're my parachute."
After that, there was a brief silence. I finally spoke, "Can I have directions?"
Ally sniffles, saying, "To where?"
"To your heart." Ally laughs, " Got anymore, Sir Cheesy?"
"Actually, yeah. Are you going to kiss me or do I have to lie to my journal?"
Ally laughs a LOT, and her eyes are definitely open now. When she finally stops, she sees something that catch her eye. She starts toward it, getting happier with every step.
She finally opens the door to her balcony and throws her arms around me.
Ally then placed her small, dainty hands on my face, "When you let me read your diary, I'd hate to read about how I was bitchy I was cause I didn't kiss you," She says all snarky and sexy. Before we proceeded with anything I needed to correct her. "Actually I said jour-"
"You'vebeentalkingalldayshutthehellup!" Ally exclaims entirely too fast, rushing her lips to meet mine. Her warm, wet lips touch mine again. I wrap my arms around her waist, and kiss her back. She yelped when I picked her up and started to spin her around. "Austin, no!" She screamed playfully I could listen to Ally's laugh all day...I stopped before I made her dizzy. I put her down, and held up my car keys. "My place?"
"You know it."
We climbed down the tree from Ally's balcony, and got in my yellow convertible. It was beautiful outside, with a full moon out and the stars shining brighter than ever. It wasn't cold out, and as my car moved along the road the nicest of breezes washed over us. We didn't talk.
We sang at the top of our lungs.
It went from "There's no way I could make it without you!" to "I'm crazy it's true HEY! crazy for you!" to "No matter what ya do, I'm gonna steal your heart!" I've never had so much fun! Our voices got sore after a while and we started talking while making way TOO many song references.
Ally started, "Austin I can't wait till we get to your place, cause I want you bad." I joined in with, "I can't wait either, you know I can't let you pass me by!"
"I know you couldn't, our love will never ever fade. We are timeless."
"We are, and you got me so messed up...my mind is always a total blank around you I can't forget about you."
"Ain't no way I'm going back home, I'm staying with you."
"It'll be just me and you. I don't know what I'd do if I couldn't be with you."
"Just be who you are and I won't ever leave. We're better together."
Best car ride ever.
One too many song references later we made it to my place.
"So THIS is what your house looks like," Ally said before inhaling. "Mmm, it smells wonderful." I gave her a sad smile, remembering when I brought her here for the first time her eyes stayed closed the whole time and she was injured. She fell asleep and I didn't even try to stop myself from getting in bed. I faced Ally, wrapping her in my arms. I thought something was wrong with me, I was cuddling with a random (but VERY attractive) girl. I was lost in my thoughts I guess, Ally must've waved her hand in my face for the umpteenth time and asked "Austin, are you okay?"
I snapped back to reality and answered with a quick nod. "Just reminiscing." "Really? About what? I have to ask, you were smiling to your heart's content." Ally asked quite anxiously.
I grabbed her shoulders and turned her so she was facing me. I didn't let go, and I let my eyes stare deep into hers. I gave a playful smile and raised an eyebrow. She laced one of her hands through mine. I didn't even have to say it.
It was 7 when we walked through the door, three hours earlier than anticipated. It kinda sucks that we didn't get those extra three hours to do anything...
The house was dark, and we went inside the kitchen. Turning on the light I see that my mom left a note on the kitchen table:
Everyone went out to eat. Nothing for you, since you have the need to get in trouble at school. Took everything out of your room no TV, internet, anything until you're done worn the bullshit.
"Your mom and my dad are one in the same, y'know." Ally sighed.
"It's fine, I have you here right now and that's better than any electronic." I gave Ally's hand a light squeeze. "Why don't we have some fun?" Ally let go of my hand and started walking backwards toward the stairs. "Where's your room?"
I gave her a weird look. "Upstairs, turn left and it's the last door."
"Alright, give me five minutes!" she exclaimed. I waited the five minutes and went up quietly. When I reached my bedroom door I opened it slowly, but it looks as of no one was in there. I went in and turned on my lamp and immediately the door slammed behind me.
I couldn't even speak, I couldn't believe what I saw in front of me. In front was a guy in dressed in all black holding an unconscious Ally.
I moved instantly, but an arm pulled me back and a towel went over my nose and mouth. My vision was blurring... I was in a predicament just as bad as her but my last thoughts before blacking out were: THESE GUYS BETTER STAY THE FUCK AWAY FROM MY ALLY.
Dez's POV:
I seriously hoped Austin and Ally were okay. I was at home laying in my bed when -
Don't you just love cliffhangers?! Exciting, right? Again I wanted to thank everyone, you guys literally made me WANT to write more! What do YOU think is in store for Austin and Ally? Not to mentiom things escalated quickly! I can't wait to see Dez's perspective either! If you wanna contribute, feel free :) Thanks for reading!
Hey! One last thing! Can anyone name all the songs that Austin and Ally referred to?
