"And that's it for today's Team Austin and Ally meeting," Trish dismissed them.

It was a normal day. They were at their Practice Room on the second foor of Sonic Boom after just having finished another meeting. They finally had a lazy week, a break from everything. They had nothing to do until the week after, which will probably be a busy week, but they'd rather not think about that right now.

"Hey guys, wanna go watch a movie?" Austin asked.

"No thanks, I'm busy. I need to finish this short film that I'm making. It's about leaves that--" Dez wasn't able to finish his sentence because Trish interrupted.

"Nah. I have to go back to work. Apparantly, you're not allowed to go outside for 3 hours during 12 minute breaks," Trish said, maiking a face.

"The injustice," Ally commented sarcastically.

"I know, right?!"

Austin, Ally, and Dez all just shook their heads at their friend.

"Okay. What about you, Ally?" Austin turned to her.

"Sure. I have nothing to do. Let's go. Bye guys," they waved to Trish and Dez and walked out of the practice room. They were almost out of the store when Lester, Ally's dad, called them.

"You need to be home by 8 pm tonight, honey. We're having some guests over," Lester told his daughter.

"Okay, sure dad," and with that, they left the store.

"Do you remember the part where Floyd walked out of the shower and found his living room filled with suds? His face was hilarious!" Austin said, laughing really hard. His face looked so red and his eyes were a bit watery from the crying.

"Yeah. And do you remember when Klein just burst into the house and just found Floyd there with only a towel on and suds all around?" Ally laighed along with him and just as hard.

They just got out of the cinema and were just walking around, looking for some place to eat. It was a bit cold and Ally involuntarily shivered.

"Cold?" Austin asked and Ally just nodded. Austin simply shrugged off his jacket and placed it around Ally's shoulders. He also put his arm around her shoulders and pulled her close. "Better?"

"Yup. Thanks, Austin." Ally smiled at him. Austin smiled back, a smile that could just melt her heart.

They walked in silence for a few minutes, enjoying the moment. Suddenly, Austin spoke.

"Ally..." Ally turned to him and waited for what he was going to say next.

"Ally, I...I think I...I-I think I like Kirra again," Austin blurted out.

Ally suddenly stopped walking and was taken aback. She looked sharply at Austin. He wasn't looking at her. She felt a sharp pain in her chest and her eyes heating up. "O-oh."

"D-do you think you could maybe...help me out with her? I want to court her this time," Austin said. Ally didn't know what to say. All she knew was that she was feeling hurt, that she was in pain. She knew she shouldn't be feeling like this, that they had, after all, agreed that they should move on, but damn it hurts!

Thankfully, she was saved from having to answer because both of their phones rang at the same time. She took it out and looked at the text.

"It's my dad. He wants me to come home," All said, looking at the clock on her phone and remembering that her dad asked her to come home at 8. It was 7:45.

"Yeah, my mom texted me, too. Well, see you later, Ally," They were already near Sonic Boom, just about 3 shops away. "And, I hope you'll agree to help me. I think maybe, it's different this time," Austin said, smiling. Ally couldn't do anything but nod and watch his back as he walked away. When he was out of sight, that was when she let the tears fall.

It was painful, like a thousand knives and blades attacking her heart over and over again. She didn't want to help him, of course not! No matter how cruel and mean and selfish it sounded, she did not want to help him. But, who was she kidding? Of course she'll help him. He deserves to be with the girl he likes. And besides, she doesn't have the right to feel this way. She's the best friend, after all...just the best friend.

After wiping her tears and heaving a long sigh, she just turned back around and headed towards Sonic Boom.

Little did she know, that tonight, many things are about to change, starting with her relationship with Austin.
