We're Not Alone Anymore

Austin's POV (November 16th)

I woke up and, to my surprise, Megan was still asleep in my arms. She looked so peaceful, like she had no worries at all, unlike when she was awake. Even though she tried not to let anyone know, her mind was going in a million directions, trying to accomplish many things in a small amount of time, when she was awake. She deserves to be able to sleep in.

I kissed her forehead lightly and carefully got up, not waking her up. I grabbed my phone and decided to go get coffee for me and Megan, since the guys had already left to get breakfast. I got off the bus to see Jack and Jacqueline walking off All Time Low's bus.

"Hey Austin!" Jacqueline said when she saw me.

Jack said, "We're going to Starbucks. Want to join us?"

I laughed and said, "That's actually where I'm going so why not." They laughed as we started towards Starbucks. We made it there in no time and ordered our drinks.

We were waiting at a table by a window when both mine and Jack's phones went off. Jack checked his phone, sighed, and said, "Well, that's great." I looked at him confused and he said, "Dude, check your phone."

I pulled out my phone and read the group text that said, "Morning guys! I was just informed that all bands will have a concert the day before and the day after Thanksgiving, in two different states, meaning that Thanksgiving day, all bands will have to be traveling. Sorry about that guys -Vic". I sighed and said, "Well, I did have plans time take Megan to see my dad. I guess I'll have to cancel now."

Jack sighed again and said, "Tour life can be difficult at times."

I nodded and said, "Yes, it can."

Megan's POV

I woke up to find an empty space next to me. It was weird. I usually wake up before Austin. I guess I was really tired. I kinda needed the sleep.

I grabbed my phone to see it was eleven in the morning. I got up and walked to the front of the bus just as Austin walked on, sighing. I smiled and asked, "Rough morning already?"

He weakly smiled, kissed me, and said, "Well, I found out that we all will be on the road on Thanksgiving day, meaning that we won't be able to go see my dad."

I smiled and said, "Well, maybe we could go on my birthday. It's a couple days later. It should be fun."

Austin looked shocked and said, "That would be amazing, but are you sure you want to?"

I laughed, kissed him, and said, "Austin, of course I want to."

He kissed me hard, handed me my coffee, and said, "I love you."

I smiled and said, "I love you too."

(December 1st)

Austin and I woke up early to get to the airport so we wouldn't miss our flight. Alan drove us there and said goodbye, going back to the venue. We had today and tomorrow off and were going to see Austin's dad. we would be staying with his dad tonight and leaving tomorrow afternoon.

"Are you nervous?" Austin asked when we got on the plane.

I smiled and said, "A little bit but that's normal."

He kissed me and said, "Don't worry. He'll love you."

The flight passed quickly, most likely because Austin and I both slept the whole time. We got off the plane and went to get our bags, stopping every once in a while to take pictures with fans. We managed to get our bags and get out of the airport in no time.

I was looking around when I heard Austin say, "Dad!" I turned to see Austin hugging who I guess was his dad.

"It's so great to see you, Austin. I'm guessing this is the wonderful girl I have been hearing about," Austin's dad said, walking up to me.

I smiled and blushed, saying, "Megan Fuentes," holding out my hand.

Austin's dad laughed and said, "We hug around here, Megan," before pulling me into a hug.

I laughed and said, "It's nice to meet you, Mr. Carlile."

He pulled away, smiled, and said, "It's nice to meet you too. I recall Austin telling me that today is your birthday."

I blushed and nodded as Austin grabbed by hand and asked his dad, "Did you pick up the present I asked you to?"

His dad nodded and said, "Well, Let's get going. I'm sure you guys are hungry. We can pick something up and go home."

Austin laughed and said, "Sounds like a plan. Let's get Chinese food. Is that okay with you guys?" Austin's dad and I nodded as we got in the car.

It didn't take us long to pick up the food and get back to Austin's dad's house. After we ate, Austin asked his dad to go get the present for me. I blushed and said, "You guys really didn't have to get me anything."

They both laughed and Austin said, "Well, we wanted to."

His dad added to that, saying, "You'll love it."

I smiled and said, "Of course I will!" They laughed Austin's dad disappeared for a minute, coming back with two small boxes.

He handed me one and said, "This is really different from what Austin got you. It's also kinda a thank you gift for taking care of my son."

I blushed and said, "You're welcome," before opening the box, revealing a beautiful, heart shaped, diamond necklace. My eyes got wide and I said, "Oh my God. It's beautiful! Thank you so much, Mr. Carlile!"

He laughed and said, "You're welcome. This is from Austin," before handing me the box.

I turned and looked at Austin while opening the present. He smiled and said, "Happy Birthday, baby," before he kissed me.

I managed to look at the present after he kissed me. It was a keychain that had three keys on it. The first key had a picture of me and Austin. The second one had a picture of Alex and Donna. The third key had a picture of Jack and Jacqueline. I looked at Austin, confused, and said, "What are these for, babe?"

He laughed and said, "I found you, Donna, and Jacqueline a house in Los Angeles. I put down the deposit and special ordered keys for each of you."

I jumped in his lap, kissing him hard, before saying, "Thank you so much! This has been an amazing birthday!" Austin and his dad laughed.

Austin said, "You're welcome, baby! I knew you would love it!"

I couldn't wipe the smile off my face the rest of the time there.
