*~ Sleep Walker ~*

A tired Ally walked from behind the counter towards the shelf that held violins and re-arranged them neatly, since customers had been observing them and touching them, some were out of place.

Pink. Blue. Purple. Red. Pink. Blue. Purple. Red... She thought of the color pattern in her mind.

The store was silent.

If a pin were to drop right about now, she is sure she would hear it. Yes, because that's how quiet the store was.

Trish and Dez left about two hours ago. Dez said he had to take his turtle with 'special problems' to the psychologist, something about it not coming out of it's shell. And Trish, well, her store is much simpler. She said she was going back to her job to quit, and then never came back. Of course though, Ally wasn't worried because Trish texted her earlier that night assuring her, that she was fine.

After a few more minutes of checking around the store to make sure everything was in place before locking up she went upstairs only to find Austin sprawled on the couch.

She slowly walked up to him, attempting to wake him. But something stopped her. She couldn't help but stare at him as he slept. His messy blond locks covered his face, his pink lips were slightly parted, breathing out little puffs of air. When suddenly, his frown turned into a smile. What was he dreaming of?

Ally leaned in closer to him to observe his sleeping face, when a knock downstairs made her realize what she was doing, and pull away. She then shook her head of these thoughts for her best friend and went to check on who was at the entrance.

She was only halfway down the stairs when a thought struck her. What if it was a burglar? What if it was a killer? What if it was a kidnapper coming to get her?

Clearly, she was very imaginative.

She took a deep breath to calm herself down before completing her walk down the stairs and reaching the door. She was surprised at who was outside. A teenage boy about her age was standing tapping on the glass window wearing a red colored hoodie. She went to unlock the doors. "May I help you?" she asked the mysterious figure in front of her. He nodded. "What do you need?" she asked once again.

The boy opened his arms, as if he were waiting for a hug.

Ally narrowed her eyes in confusion. "What?"

She heard a boyish giggle before the person lowered his hood, revealing his face to her.

She gasped at who she saw. "Elliot?! What are you doing here? And why are you here at this time?"

Elliot smiled. "I came to visit you! My parents came here for spring break and I decided to come visit you."

Ally smiled at him before it faded into a frown. "Ooh, Elliot, that's very sweet, and I'd love to hang out with you, but, you see my partner is up in the practice room and we're about to have an all nighter-"

"What's an all nighter?" Elliot interrupted.

"An all nighter is when me and Austin stay up all night writing a song." she replied to his question.

Elliot smiled and nodded, a sense of realization in his eyes. "Oh right! You're Austin Moon's partner! I can't believe I forgot!" he exclaimed. Of course though, how could have he forgotten that his old camp friend was now partners with an internet sensation and now signed Starr Records recording artist Austin Moon?

Ally shrugged. "It's cool." she laughed. "So, you didn't answer all my questions, why are you here at this time?"

"Well, we got here this morning, but my parents wanted to explore Miami and take pictures and stuff, so I didn't have time to come visit you til' now. Of course if I get caught my mom will be pretty mad, but, anything to come see you."
