Better Than This

Chapter 13

Hunter was shocked. "Tomorrow?"

Allie looked innocently at him. "Yes, tomorrow. I was waiting until I got a reply from you."

Hunter looked at her. "Well, I guess we can do it."

Allie turned around to her mom, who was still in the car. "Is it alright if I ride with him? I have to explain something."

"Sure, Allie." She smiled at her mom. Allie turned back around to Hunter and told him, "I'll explain on the way to the hotel." Hunter smiled at her and nodded.

They got in the van and the driver started it. Allie never would've believed that she would be sitting next to Hunter Hayes, talking. She realized that it was happening and she started to explain, "I haven't told anyone that you were coming, or that I asked you. I want it to be a surprise."

Hunter thought about this. "I gotcha. So do you know what song you're gonna sing?"

"Well, for the audition, I was gonna do Faith To Fall Back On. The only person I'm gonna tell is my music director, so he can privately work on the lighting with us."

Hunter smiled. "Wow, you have all this figured out already."

Allie laughed. "And for the performance, I was thinking about doing Better Than This."

"Sounds good," Hunter agreed. They pulled into the hotel and Hunter helped Allie out of the van.
