A new chapter because the last one wasn't long and I felt bad:)
Disclaimer: I don't own Austin & Ally or any characters I didn't make up.
Ally sat up in her bed at 1am with an annoyed sigh. She had been twisting and turning all night unable to sleep. She walked downstairs to her living room and turned the TV on. She hugged her knees to her chest and flipped the channels to find something that interested her.
She abruptly stopped when she saw a familiar mop of blonde hair. Ally put the remote down and noticed that it was one of Austin's movies being showed. Curious, she decided to watch it to see how well he acted.
By the end of the movie she was a sobbing mess as she watched the credits roll. Austin's character tragically died towards the end and his funeral was showed. His incredibly realistic acting convinced her he really died. She involuntarily thought of Austin actually dying and her having to stand at his funeral staring at his photo over his coffin.
She turned the TV off and cleaned up after herself after wiping her tears away. She went to her bed, but she didn't feel like she was going to sleep anytime soon with the image of that funeral in her mind. She took her phone and earphones and went on YouTube(1) and searched for Austin's official channel. She needed to feel calm.
She watched several of his music videos and interviews. Some had two guys she didn't recognize with him and Dez. She guessed they were Ryder and Elliot. Austin told her that she was going to officially meet them on the set of their music videos, next week. Apparently the four of them were working on another album to reform the band. Ally, being the supportive girlfriend she was, was okay that she wasn't going to see Austin as much as usual.
She closed her eyes and enjoyed the harmony of the background music and the singing appreciating every moment of vocals that seemed to relax her mind. She listened to almost all of the songs, Austin's and the band's, and finally felt relaxed enough to sleep. She dreamed of everything she watched that night and had the peaceful sleep she wanted.
Austin sat on the couch in his dressing room listening to the conversation among the guys as they waited to get called on set. "Where is this legendary girlfriend of yours?" Elliot asked sarcastically. "Hair and makeup. And don't embarrass me in front of her," Austin warned. Ryder pretended to be offended, "Us? Embarrass you? How can you say that? It's not like we're gonna have the burping contests we always have in front of her."
Austin glared at him as Dez piped up, "If you want to embarrass Austin, don't do it in front of her, I like her enough not to want her to run for the hills." A knock on the door interrupted them. Austin got up to open it but turned to the guys and spoke in a low voice, "That's her! Look presentable!" The guys smiled goofily at him and quickly brushed the pieces of potato chips off of them. "Got himself a girlfriend and he's suddenly jumpy and nervous about the level of cleanliness," he heard behind him but chose to ignore them.
"Well, hello there," Austin smiled as he kissed her cheek. Ally giggled, "Hey. We have 5 minutes till we have to be on set." He nodded, "Just enough time for you to meet the guys." He ushered her in and introduced her to Ryder and Elliot, "Ally, this is Ryder and Elliot. Guys, this is Ally."
Ryder and Elliot shook her hand and Elliot said, "Nice to finally meet the girl that Austin wouldn't stop talking about. Do you really make the best pancakes in the world?" Austin tried his best to quietly get him to stop talking from behind Ally by violently shaking his head and glaring at him. "Have you seen Austin doing his favorite hobby?" Ryder politely asked. Austin knew exactly what he meant and kept motioning Ryder to shut up and not do anything.
Ryder smirked before shaking his head, "Nah, I'm not gonna embarrass him today. Let's give him a break." Austin let out a sigh of relief and said, "Now you know what I have to deal with on a daily basis." Ally laughed, "I'm sure they mean well." Dez smiled, "You don't even know." Austin wanting to end the conversation they engaged in about his embarrassing moments exclaimed, "5 minutes are up! Ally, we need to get going!" He grabbed her wrist and pulled her out of the room before she could say anything.
Ally giggled, "What's got you so worked up?" Austin stopped and pulled her into a vacant room, "I don't know why I'm so snappy." She smiled and hugged him, "Relax, I like them." Austin leaned on the wall and shook his head, "It's not just that. My mom and sister also want to meet you, but I keep telling them it's too early. I don't want you to think we're taking it too fast."
Ally smiled, "I don't think we're taking it too fast. If your family wants to meet me, that's fine. You met mine a long time ago." He said, "But that was before we started dating." She said, "Technically, it was on the day we got back together. But still, I want to meet them, they seem nice." Austin nodded, "As long as you're comfortable with it." Ally tiptoed and placed and small kiss on his lips. "Let's go shoot this video," she said.
Ally knocked on the door of the house Austin told her to go to. They didn't come together to not get a crowd of paparazzi following them. Austin was coming over later. The door swung open and an older woman with blonde hair like Austin's exclaimed, "You must be Ally! I'm Mimi Moon. It's a pleasure to meet you!" Ally hugged the woman and replied, "It's so nice to meet you, Mrs. Moon. Austin's told me so much about you!" Mrs. Moon welcomed her into her beautiful home.
"It's a lovely home you have, Mrs. Moon. Were you the one who did Austin's house?" Austin's mom nodded, "He was never the one to care about how neatly things were placed." Ally laughed, "I agree!" A tall blonde girl came down the stairs, Ally guessed it was Cassidy. "Hi, I'm Cassidy. You must be Austin's girlfriend! It's a pleasure to meet you," his sister said as she hugged Ally. "I'm Ally, It's a pleasure to meet you too!"
They all took a seat in the living room. "How's he treating you?" Cassidy asked immediately. "He's treating me really well. Most people think otherwise because of his past," Ally replied. Mrs. Moon nodded, "I know. It's sad that he has to live with other people's opinions surrounding him. Thank God you showed up."
Ally confusedly asked, "Excuse me?" Cassidy answered, "He only got motivated to get better after he met you. The guys tried really hard to help him, but he shut everybody out." Ally said, "He never told me that." Mimi said, "He never told anybody that, we sensed it. He's happier now." Ally smiled at the thought of her helping him like that. "Have you met the guys yet?" Cassidy asked. Ally nodded, "Yeah, Dez happens to be my best friend's fiancé, so I met him before the others. I only met Ryder and Elliot last week."
"Did they try to embarrass him?" Cassidy smiled knowingly. Ally giggled, "A little, but they were funny." His sister laughed, "They mean well. Elliot is actually my boyfriend." Ally said, "Austin told me about that once. And Ryder's girlfriend is called… um…" Cassidy finished for her, "Kira, my best friend." Ally said, "I have to meet her now. And you should totally meet Trish, my best friend."
Cassidy asked, "Trish? As in Dez's fiancée?" Ally nodded. "You met the guys on the set of your new music video right?" Cassidy questioned. "Yeah, Austin told you about that?" Cassidy nodded, "When does it come out?" Ally tried to remember, "One comes out in 3 weeks and the other a month after it I think." His sister smiled, "I can't wait to see them."
The door was knocked signaling that Austin was here. "Hey, Cass," Austin said hugging his sister. "I like her," she whispered into his ear. He smiled and hugged his mom as well. "How's she?" he asked his mom. Mimi smiled, "I don't remember the last time I liked your girlfriend this much."
They walked into the living room where Ally was waiting. "He hugged his girlfriend, "You're so quiet," he teased her. She rolled her eyes, "I need to make a good impression." He winked at her, "Don't worry, they like you." They sat down in the living room. Ally sat next to Austin and he put his arm around her shoulders. They set off in a funny conversation about the things Austin used to do when he was a kid. Austin threw his head back in embarrassment as Ally laughed at him. "Why would you eat ice cream off your pants?" Austin shrugged, "There wasn't a sign that said I couldn't"
The doorbell rang again. "Mom, you waiting for someone else?" Austin asked. Mimi rushed to the door, "Kind of." Cassidy rushed to the door too. "Hey, Dad," they heard Cassidy say. Austin's smile dropped and he became rigid. "Is that…?" Ally reluctantly asked. "Mike Moon," Austin said through gritted teeth.
Here comes trouble…
