"ALLY!" The song writing brunette nearly fell off the ladder she was standing on. She peaked down from where she was fixing up a display of trumpets and saw Dez standing at the bottom. He was bouncing around while waving his hands for Ally to come down.

"Yeah, Dez?" Ally asked when she came down.

"You haven't seen Austin today yet have you?" Dez sighed in relief when she answered no. "Good, I needed to warn you that-"The doors of the store shook violently as someone slammed them open and then proceeded close them with more forced than necessary. A blonde blur known as Austin ran through the store in haste and stormed up the stairs stomping with extra force in each step. The stomping only stopped when sound of another door slamming echoed through the store and then filled with the muffled sounds of pop music blasting from the music room.

"-He's in a mood…"

"No kidding"

"Hey what's got Austin's undies in a bunch?" Trish questioned Dez while she made her way over from the register. "I haven't seen his face that color red since that kangaroo kicked him where the suns don't shine."

"Or the time he woke up with a bald cap on his head and he thought we had shaved his hair off." Ally added.

"OR the time you almost fell off the ladder and he tried to save you by grabbing your butt" Trish full on smirked while remembering that day and the way both of her friends faces looked red as tomatos.

"OKAY changing the subject!" Ally shrieked and turned her attention back on their red-headed director. "Why's he so angry?"

"He went out to dinner with his dad last night and it didn't go so well." The girls winced in union and frowned. Austin's relationship with his dad had been even rockier since the Blonde had been discovered. They still butted heads on the subject of him making it in the music industry. Their fights usually ended with Austin leaving his house steaming mad and spending the night at Dez's cooling off. Ally sympathized with Austin on that subject. Every time she dad would call her song writing a 'fun hobby', she would feel a little spark of anger in her, but usually she didn't let it get the best of her.

"The usual didn't go so well or the worse it didn't go so well?" a thud that sounded like someone falling to the floor hard and then a crash of various things came from upstairs.

"I'm guessing the latter." Trish sighed and then patted Alley roughly on the shoulders.

"Well what are you waiting for? Go up there and cheer up your singer!" Ally raised her eyebrows at her best friend.

"My singer? Really?"

"My bad, your inspiration. It doesn't matter, just go up there and talk to him!"

"Since when did that become my job?" Ally groaned while Trish and Dez nudged her closer to the stairs.

"Since I have no filter on my mouth and would probably make things worse and Dez is….well Dez." Trish smiled encouragingly as she shoved Ally onto the first step of stairs. "Now go up and get our ego maniac rock star back!"

"I better get a good, meaningful, heartfelt song out of this" Ally muttered as she made her way up to her music room.

Dayo me say Dayo

Daylight comes and we don't wanna go home

Yeah so we losing control

Turn the lights low cause we about to get blown.

Austin favorite pop song of the week blasted through the speakers as loud as he could make it go. Since last night and this morning all he could see is red, he felt so angry from what his father had said last night. He was trying to forget his anger for a few moments so he could do the right dance moves he'd seen on YouTube a few days ago. He tried to focus on the lyrics and the loud never-ending beat filling his ears. Every time he fell over onto his butt or missed a step he instantly reminded of his father's words and then danced to the music harder and faster than the try before. He kept doing the same cycle with the same song until he was exhausted and worn out, but he couldn't stop now. This was the only way he could forget about yesterday. By pushing himself to the limit doing something he loved to do.

Let the club shut down

We won't go oh oh oh-

The music was abruptly cut off right in the middle of the chorus. Austin whipped around only to spot his song writer standing next to the stereo system, with her finger on the off switch.

"What's your problem?" Austin asked harshly while he walked over to try to turn the music back on. He stopped though when he realized Ally wouldn't move from the stereo so he walked over to grab a water bottle for his desperately thirsty throat.

"Well I haven't got a new idea for a song, My dad wants me to work more shifts, There hasn't been any clouds in the sky for me and the cloud watchers to look at; oh yeah and YOU!" Ally pointed her finger at him. Austin paused from drinking his water.

"Me?"

"Yes! You! Storming up into here, wrecking stuff and dancing yourself into exhaustion" She motioned to his limp body that was still slightly shaking from his dance routine. "Why though? Come on, you can talk to me! I'm your partner! Partners are there for each other when one of them needs someone to be there." Ally pleaded to Austin. His response though wasn't something Ally expected him to say.

But then again everything he did was never expected.

"CanIhavemyhugnow?" he asked hurriedly, sounding frustrated and tired

…..

Wait.

What?

"What?"

"I said can I have my hug. You said and I quote 'I'll hug you when you're less sweaty and orange'. Well I'm not orange anymore and I'm only a little bit sweaty now…please?" Austin added sounding a little more timid than angry now. Alley nodded her head and suddenly she had her arms filled with Austin. She was practically getting all the air forced out of her body from the force Austin was holding her at.

"Can't breath…suffocating.." The blonde 16 year old quickly loosened his hold Ally but still kept their bodies pressed together. Ally always knew Austin was a very affectionate person cause he was always hugging people. The only times they've every hugged was when they got a song done or He just did an amazing performance. The hugs usually only last about a second before Austin decided to go glob someone else, but Ally could tell he wasn't about to move anytime soon.

"Sorry" He mumbled into the brunette's hair. He continued to nuzzle her hair while making sure he had her waist held in an iron grip. He was feeling frustrated and tired and all he wanted was for someone to maybe tell him everything was going to be fine and just hold him.

"He was so wrong about you" Austin mumbled into the top of the brunette's head. "He said the songs you write were cheesy and way too simple. He said..." The blonde held onto Ally tighter and grumbled more nonsense into her hair." Ally pulled away slightly so she could look up at him.

"Your dad said that? You guys talked about me?" Austin nodded his head and averted his eyes so he could glare at the wall.

"Yeah he was doing the usual; telling me I was a good singer but not even good enough to be a star and a bunch more stuff about how t still was a risky business and it would probably never happen. I was tuning most of it out till he mentioned you name. He started talking about how you weren't talented enough to be writing any songs, let alone for me." Ally felt Austin tighten his fists near behind her back, trying to control his anger.

"That's when I got super mad and started shouting in the middle of the restaurant 'you wouldn't know talent if it came and slapped you in the face'. He tried to argue back saying he was only stating his opinion and that you were just a silly little girl with a stupid dream in her head. I don't really remembered what I said back cause I think I was literally seeing red and I yelled something and then I ran out and called a cab to Dez's. I'm still so mad at him because you're not some girl with some ordinary dream." Austin grabbed Ally's shoulder and starred down into her eyes.

"You're the reason anyone right now knows that the heck I am. Without you I would still be in my room dreaming of being know an internet sensation instead of living it. This-" Austin gestured to their awesome music room and the laptop open to Austin's latest video. "Is all 'cause of you. You are probably the best thing that's ever happened to me and I'm never going to sit back and let someone tell me otherwise." The blonde cheeks turned a nice pink color when he realized that what he said sounded really cheesy and a little too heartfelt. Ally stood still for a moment before she threw herself back into Austin's arms. She wrapped her arms around his neck, which was kind of hard since she was so short. She let go just as fast as she had hugged him.

"Then let's go prove him wrong. We could focus all of that anger-" She poked him in the chest." and use that to write your newest hit. Let's show him and everyone who doubts us that we can make it." Alley held out her hand to him. "You ready?"

"You Bet" For the first time all day Austin smiled. It wasn't his ordinary goofy grin, this was the kind of 'hyper puppy let loose' smile only Ally could make him wear on his face. Austin took her hand and let the brunette drag them to the piano, all while she was rambling away about the ideas she already had in her songbook. They never bothered to let go of each other's hands all through their writing session.

Well...thats really all I have...R&R please!
