Firework- Katy Perry (Ally is singing at the Beach Club for her firat performance)
Do you ever feel like a plastic bag
Drifting through the wind, wanting to start again?
Do you ever feel, feel so paper thin
Like a house of cards, one blow from caving in?
Do you ever feel already buried deep six feet under?
Screams but no one seems to hear a thing
Do you know that there's still a chance for you
'Cause there's a spark in you?
You just gotta ignite the light and let it shine
Just own the night like the 4th of July
'Cause, baby, you're a firework
Come on, show 'em what you're worth
Make 'em go, "Aah, aah, aah"
As you shoot across the sky-y-y
Baby, you're a firework
Come on, let your colours burst
Make 'em go, "Aah, aah, aah"
You're gonna leave 'em all in awe, awe, awe
You don't have to feel like a wasted space
You're original, cannot be replaced
If you only knew what the future holds
After a hurricane comes a rainbow
Maybe a reason why all the doors are closed
So you could open one that leads you to the perfect road
Like a lightning bolt, your heart will glow
And when it's time you'll know
You just gotta ignite the light and let it shine
Just own the night like the 4th of July
'Cause, baby, you're a firework
Come on, show 'em what you're worth
Make 'em go, "Aah, aah, aah"
As you shoot across the sky-y-y
Baby, you're a firework
Come on, let your colours burst
Make 'em go, "Aah, aah, aah"
You're gonna leave 'em all in awe, awe, awe
Boom, boom, boom
Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon
It's always been inside of you, you, you
And now it's time to let it through-ough-ough
'Cause, baby, you're a firework
Come on, show 'em what you're worth
Make 'em go, "Aah, aah, aah"
As you shoot across the sky-y-y
Baby, you're a firework
Come on, let your colours burst
Make 'em go, "Aah, aah, aah"
You're gonna leave 'em all in awe, awe, awe
Boom, boom, boom
Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon
Boom, boom, boom
Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon
Ally finishes singer her song at the Beach Club and smiles. The group starts clapping and whooing. "Thank you so much." Ally says in the microphone.
She waits until the manager joins her on the stage. She grabs another microphone and speaks into it, "Thank you everyone for coming to Ally's first performance as a Ramone Records Recording Artist!" There are clapping coming from the audience which places a smile Ally's face.
Ally jumps off the stage and goes to where Austin is. He gives her a quick peck on the lips and whispers in her ear, "I'm so proud of you."
She smiles and looks at Austin with a smile, "I couldn't have done it without you."
We go over to Austin's place and have a snack in his kitchen.
"So Ally, do you want some help writing your next song?" Austin asks.
"You know what, why not? You can come over tonight."
"Sounds like a plan." Austin puts another chip in his mouth. The front door opens and Austin's mom comes in with her purse on her right shoulder. She sets it down in the counter and goes over to Austin and Ally.
"Austin, what do you want to do for your seventeenth birthday?" She asks.
"I don't really want to do much. Maybe just a dinner with Ally." Austin answers and looks at Ally.
Ally smiles, "That's sweet but are you sure you don't want to invite a couple people over or something?"
"I'm good. I don't need an extravagant party. It's to like I'm turning 21 or something."
"Okay. So I was wondering what you want as a gift?" Austin's mom, Bernadette asks.
"I don't want or need anything for my birthday." Austin answers.
"Okay, but just say you asked for it." She laughs.
"So you want to go for a walk, Als?"
"Sure." Ally smiles. They exit the house and head down the sidewalk holding hands. "So, Austin, what do you want for your birthday?"
"I thought I just answered this back at the house." Ally smiles. "I don't want anything."
"There's not a thing that you want?" Austin nods his head softly. Ally stops Austin and puts a hand in his chest. "Not a thing?" She smirks.
"Oh, don't try that in me. I would never do that to you." He takes her hand and keeps it for himself.
"Do what to you?"
"Take advantage of you. Plus, I've never done that, before."
"Well, me either." Suddenly it gets quiet and all you can hear are the birds chirping in the distance. The wind blowing through their ears and through Ally's hair. Austin moves his hand through her hair which sent shivers down Ally's spine. She places her hand over his and suddenly time stopped. Nothing existed around the couple as they got caught in each other's gaze. Then a car came by and time reassumed at its place. "I better get home."
"I'll come with. As of course I'm going to help you write a new song."
Ally smiles, "Of course."
