125Hey guys! I am SO SORRY for not updating in months, I feel like begging for your forgiveness. :( But just know that even if I don't update on anything, it does not mean I am abandoning them. Either I forgot, was lazy, had writer's block, or the story was on a hiatus. For this story, it was writer's block. Thank you all for supporting me for the trashion show, and if were wondering about that, WE CAME IN SECOND PLACE OUT OF THE ENTIRE SCHOOL! I literally screamed when they announced us and was bouncing all around and, ugh I could go on for HOURS. I particularly want to thank Avid Fan (Guest), she is such a sweetheart. :) Now I don't want to keep you from your reading any longer.
Ally's POV
Oh gosh, oh gosh, oh my goodness gracious. I can't believe Austin Moon out of all people, just kissed me. And I kissed him back! Eep! I am literally running and stumbling on my way to the cafeteria, I was about to go in, before someone pulled me backwards and into a janitor's closet. Oh real classy. I turn around as the lights flick on and I come face to face with an angry Kira Starr.
"Listen Dawson, I saw what happened in the auditorium. How dare you think you could come in and snatch my Austykins away from me!" she hissed. I lifted an eyebrow.
"Uh, your Austy what? Last time I checked, Austin was single, and you were flirting with one of the quarterbacks on our football team." I said right back to her, crossing my arms. Wow! Ever since I started drama class, I have gotten a lot of confidence lately! Her face turned red and she growled.
"Wha- ugh, whatever! Just-"
"I don't know where this is going Kira, but I kinda have to go to lunch, hope we continue this conversation never!" I smiled sarcastically before getting out of there and plopped next to Trish at lunch that was poking at our mystery meatballs before noticing me.
"Oh, hey Ally! Amy told me what happened between you and Austin," she smirked. "Looks like you don't have to go flirting with him to make him like you!" I smiled and giggled. "And it means that he might not have a crush on Kira!" she added. My smile faltered a bit. "Trish, he might have feelings for her. Why else would he end up being around her? She's a devil wearing Louis Vuitton." I told her sadly looking over at the table across from us where Austin stood with her trying to calm her down by hugging her in his chest since she still looked mad. Trish raised her eyebrows at me.
"Okay, something obviously happened between you and Kira," she crossed her arms. "Come on, spill it out." She demanded. I sighed, but told her anyways, she's one of my best friends.
As I told her a quick recap of what happened in the janitor's closet between Kira and I, her eyes widened, and when I finally got to the end, she looked impressed. "Congrats girl, you faced up to the devil's daughter." She said giving me a quick hug.
"Now, give me ALL the details on your first kiss!" she squealed. I giggled.
"It first started when I was talking about-"I was interrupted by none other than Austin Moon and Dez was with him.
"Hey ladies!" Austin said before they sat down at our table. I bet they could all feel the awkward tension between us.
"Do you guys want to be alone?" Dez asked us seriously.
"Uh, yeah actually." Austin answered.
"Okay. There's nobody sitting at that table over there." He suddenly said pointing to a table not so far away. I laughed a little.
"Okay then," Austin and I both went over to the suggested table.
"Nice going idiot! You picked a table five feet away!" I hear Trish hiss at Dez. I laughed. I sat at one end at Austin sat across from me.
"So…."
"So…"
"So…."
"Soo…."
"Alright, let's not make this any weirder than it needs to be," I suggested. "We kissed." I said slowly. "It was good." I felt my face getting hot.
"Really good." He added. I chuckled.
"Okay. It was really good." I corrected.
"Magical even." We heard Dez say. I looked over to the redhead then back to the blonde, who was nodding his head, silently agreeing with Dez.
"Okay, it was really good and magical." I laughed. (1)
"And I really like you Ally. I really want this to work." He pleaded.
"I really like you too Austin." He pumped up his fists in the air cheering "Yes!" I just laughed. "But, I know Kira is not going to be happy about this. And it won't be good for your reputation, which is something I know you care A LOT about." I said.
"But Ally, who cares what Kira thinks of us?" he said scoffing at the name pathetically.
"And your reputation?" I pressed.
"Hehe….well….I don't know if I can give that up so easily, I've worked on it ever since I realized about popularity back in middle school." He said truthfully. I rolled my eyes. Of course.
"Goodbye Austin." I said gently, before going back to Trish, while Dez saw me leaving and ran up to Austin.
"Come on Trish, we're going to the bathroom." I told her taking her arm and dragging her there. As soon as we got there, I told her what happened. She ended up giving me a hug while I let a few tears out.
"Oh Ally, you know what, Austin had two chances to making this relationship. To either stand up and be the man you need in your life, or sit down so you can find one behind him. Obviously, he sat down." Trish said gently.
"Wow Trish. Never knew you were so deep." I said giggling a little followed by a sniffle. She mocked a scoff.
"Well don't be expecting any more deep thoughts from me. Tell you what, how about I call Amy's and my parents if we could have a sleepover at your place, while you asked your parents. Okay?" she offered. I nodded.
"Yeah, that would be nice Trish, thanks." I smiled. I freshened up and washed my face, reapplying whatever makeup had washed off, and we headed back to the cafeteria, where we only had about ten minutes left before we had to go to sixth period. I quickly dialed my dad's number. After a few rings he picked up.
"Hi Ally! What are you doing, sweetie? Aren't you supposed to be in your classes?" he asked nicely.
"Actually it's lunch time right now. I just wanted to ask if Trish and Amy could come over for a sleepover tonight." I asked. He was thinking for a little bit.
"Sure, I don't see why not."
"Thanks dad!" I said cheerfully before hanging up. I turned to Trish.
"My dad said you could all come for the sleepover." I told her.
"Great! Now met me call Amy's and my parents." She said before dialing Mrs. Moon's number and putting it on speaker.
"Hello?"
"Hi Mrs. Moon, this is Trish and Ally; Amy's friends. We were wondering if Amy could come for a sleepover at Ally's." Trish asked politely.
"Sure! That means Austin could take care of Juliette for once. I swear the boy is never helping around the house." She said.
"Great! Thank you!" Trish said before hanging up.
"Wow, Trish. I never knew you could put on a nice act." I complimented.
"I know. It gets SO exhausting." She agreed. Then she dialed her mom's number in.
"Mom? Can I sleepover at Ally's?" she said straightforward.
"Okay, but when don't you sleep at Ally's?" she joked.
"Bye mom." Trish said plainly before hanging up. THEN she texted Amy that her mom allowed her to sleepover at my place. Then I got my phone out and texted Cassidy that Amy and Trish were sleeping over at our place. That uses a lot of phone energy.
The bell rang, signaling lunch was over, and so Trish and I headed our separate ways, me to English and Trish to Management Class. I can't wait for tonight! Finally, some girl talk.
Austin's POV
"But Ally, who cares what Kira thinks of us?" I said, scoffing nervously. Please, please, please don't reject me, you already told me you liked me, please, please, please don't get my hopes up.
"And your reputation?" she questioned. Shoot.
"Hehe….well….I don't know if I can give that up so easily, I've worked on it ever since I realized about popularity back in middle school." I said, cringing honestly. She rolled her eyes. No, no, no, no, no, Ally don't go-
"Bye Austin." She said with a small smile and going back over to her Latina friend. Dez came running over as soon as Ally left.
"So, how'd it go?" he said excitedly.
"Not so well." His smile faltered.
"What happened?" he asked seriously.
"Wow, Dez. Who knew you could be so serious?" I said amazed at his quick change in mood.
"Well, I am Team Ally," he said smugly, lifting up his shirt to reveal a tee shirt with TEAM ALLY printed on it. "Besides, Kira's a jerk. So what happened between you and Ally?" he repeated.
"Well, she told me she likes me," I got interrupted by a cheer from Dez. "But then she started saying how Kira wouldn't like it if we started dating, and then she got me on my reputation. I couldn't give it up." I confessed. I looked up to see Dez giving me a pointed look.
"Really? You gave up your dream girl who you've been crushing on for like EVER, because of your stupid reputation?" he said flatly. I winced.
"Well when you say it like that, it doesn't sound so smart."
"Because it's not." he said simply. I groaned and banged my head against a wall.
"Great. I screwed things up. Again. How do I make it up to her?" I said more to myself than to Dez.
"Write her a song." Dez suddenly spoke up. I looked at him in horror.
"Write her, Ally Marie Dawson; the most beautiful girl on Earth, a song, coming from a guy who CAN'T write a song for his life?" I repeated. Dez nodded.
"All you need is inspiration. Ally gets it all the time. And she's a music loving person, I think she'll at least appreciate the effort." Dez said before the bell rang, and Dez headed off to Math and I headed off to PE. Before I headed out of the cafeteria, I quickly pulled out a pen and some paper.
I think about you every morning when I open my eyes. I think about you every evening when I turn out the lights. I think about you every moment, every day of my life. You're on my mind, all the time; it's true.
Hey! How are you all doing? Please don't kill me! Again, I am so sorry for making you guys wait for about four months just to give you this much. But oh well. Isn't writer's block a wonderful thing?
(1) We all know this scene from Partners and Parachutes. It's was funny and cute and oh so kawaii!
Anyways, if you don't know the song he is "writing," then, I'll just have to kill you.
BTW: For my readers oit there in the UK, are any of you excited for R5 in London?!
Thanks for spending your time reading this, and I can't promise you guys a quick update, but I'll try.
Please review!
