Okay so this is my first time at A Cinderella Story. In this story, Sam is telling her two daughters the story of how she fell in love with Austin. They have were married when they were 23 and have a 5 and 3 year old daughters names Arianna and Rachel. This is a story so it will of course be interrupted by the kids. Every chapter will be a different night, where she'll start up the story again. Even though they went to college in like 2004 I'm gonna make them have a 2008 style. It will be a past and present story.
Disclaimer: I own no one except Arianna and Rachel.
Normal: This is when Sam is in the present.
Italic: Sam talking about the past.

"Ari and Rach! Time to go to bed. Come one chop, chop!" I said to my two daughters as they ran out of the bathroom with their princess night gowns on. I felt a strong pair of arms wrap around my waist from behind. Even though we've been together for almost 12 years I still get chills when he touches me. I felt his hand push some of my hair away from my neck and then his lips replace it. "Austin…w-we have to… say goodnight to th-the girls." I struggled trying to get my words out. I heard him groan, I giggled to myself. When Austin got going he was never one to stop. "Come on superstar." I said turning around and slapping his arm. We walked into the girls room and said goodnight to each of them. As I was about to close the door I heard Ari call me. "I'll be in there soon." I whispered to Austin, he nodded and turn around as I made my way back into the room. "What honey?" I asked her while yawning, man I'm tired.
"You didn't tell us a bedtime story." Arianna complained. I groaned. Great this could take a while. The girls liked at least 2 or 3 stories a night, I was hoping they forgot.
"Okay girls. What do you want? How about The little Mermaid, you like that one." I said going to grab the book, Rachel stopped me.
"No mommy we want you to tell us a different story!" She said with a pouty face. I smiled, these girl's reminded me soo much of their dad.
"Okay what story do you want to be told?" I asked sitting down on Ari's bed.
"When did you know you were in love with daddy?" Arianna asked looking up at me with a smile.
I huffed, my bangs going up a bit. Then I smiled. "When he fought for me." I said, getting a bigger smile than normal.
"Do you mean like with swords and on a horse and stuff?" Rachel asked me excitedly.
"More like his heart." I said smiling at her.
"Can you tell us the story?" Arianna asked me.
"It's a very long story. It might take a couple of bed times to get through the whole thing." I said looked at them.
"Please, please, please, please, please???" They both asked me at the same time. I just laughed.
"Okay, Once upon at time your father and I went to a school called Princeton. We were very happy…
"Austin!" I let out a small squeal of excitement when I felt my boyfriend lift my up off the ground and twirl me around. We just got to Princeton, we were finally free… of Fiona and Austin's dad, of our class mates, of our drama filled lives, from all of it. Austin lowered me down to the ground and moved his hands to cup around my cheek, I felt his soft lips graze mine and then fully come crashing down on them.-
"Ewwww!" Rachel squealed, I let out a short laugh before beginning the story again.
-I pulled back soon. We just arrived at the school and we couldn't be making out in the parking lot. And I've never been a fan of PDA, just the A in the comfort of our own home. "Austin, we should get to my room. We have a lot of unpacking to do, and once were done…I might give you a tiny award." I said after leaving Austin standing there shocked. I never really talked to him like that. But I'm gonna be different here. I don't want to be geeky Sam with the jock boyfriend who has no business being interested in me at all. Besides, I just got so much income from the diner and selling Fiona's cars, I could buy myself, Austin, Carter, and Aimee all a new wardrobe, while still having money left over.
"Sam? Baby, come on! You can't do that!" I heard Austin yell as he ran to catch up with me. When he finally did we were walking side by side with a multiple of boxes in our hands. Austin kept giving me side glances which made me giggle. On the way to my dorm I saw many girls glance Austin up and down, give him casual winks, even scowl at me for being with him. It made me so sick. I know Austin doesn't even notice it, since that was how it went in high school, and I know he didn't really like it, but it still bugs me. "Sam, Sam!" I looked up at him, he was trying to get my attention. "Um are you in there?" He asked laughing. "We're at your dorm." He said pointing to the dorm in front of me.
"Oh yeah, sorry I was spacing out for a second." He laughed and I opened the door to my room. When I went in I saw one of the beds was already occupied, so I took the other one. I could tell the girl who I'm sharing this room with had an out there style. Her room was silver, black and teal and had a lot of posters of rock bands I've never heard of. Austin and I started to put my stuff down and then he left to go get more boxes from his car. I heard the door open behind me thinking it was Austin. "Austin, I think I want to-" I was cut off because I was staring at a girl not Austin. A very pretty girl by the way. She had chocolate brown hair that was in beach curls that went down to her mid back. She also had strands of teal and black that was in her lower layer, I am guessing they are extensions. Her eyes were a pale green and she had purple eyeliner underneath. She also had some mascara and blush on. I looked down at her outfit. She was wearing a zebra striped shirt with a purple and black checkered scarf. Her pants were bright red and she had purple leg warmers over them. Her shoes were just black peep toe stilettos. She had many bracelets on, they were mostly black bangles with a few chunky red ones here and there. Yep, out there style.
"Sorry I'm not Austin." She said laughing. "I think I'm your roommate? My names Nikki, or Nicolette it really doesn't matter." She said smiling and shaking my hand. Good, I have a nice roommate.
"Hi, I'm Sam or Samantha it really doesn't matter. And yes I think I'm your roommate too. I love your outfit, I wish I could pull off something like that." I said looking over her outfit one more time.
"Thanks, and with me as your roommate I'm sure I can help you find a style that's all your own. So who is Austin?" She asked sitting down on her bed. I can already tell were gonna be friends.
"He's my boyfriend actually, he is helping me move everything in my room. Oh and here he is. Hey Austin." I said to Austin as he came through my door with 3 more large boxes.
"Hey babe, so that's the last of the boxes. Now I get you all to myself." He said lowering his head down to kiss me, I pulled back. "What's wrong?" He whispered to me, I pointed over to Nikki. He followed my gaze and then he straightened up.
"Hola loverboy!" Nikki said waving at Austin with a smirk on her face. I could tell she was trying to hold in her laughter. She got off the bed and walked over to Austin and shook his hand. "So you must be Austin. I'm Nikki, Sam's new roommate, and if you do any of that while I'm gone, were going to have to come up with a system. Maybe scrunchies." Nikki said going back over to her bed.
"Um Nikki? Have you been around campus yet?" I asked her.
"Yes! It's amazing. I already love it here." She gushed.
"I think were gonna go look around. See you later." She waved goodbye and Austin and I were off. He took my hand and we were walking down the stares when I saw another girl check him out and then glare at me. I let out a groan which didn't go unnoticed by Austin.
"What's wrong?" He asked me. Gosh he's soo dense sometimes.
"Nothing. Lets just go to the dining hall. I'm hungry." I said, he nodded and we went to the dining hall. Once we stepped through the doors we found out it was crowded, so crowded that we would be lucky to get a table. We went over to the line and I grabbed a sandwich, potato chips and a water. Austin just took a sandwich. We paid and were lucky enough to find a table for two. As I was pulling out my chair and was about to sit down, I found that is was occupied by a girl, a girl who I could already tell thought she was like the Queen of England.-
"Mommy?! The queen of England went to your school?" Rachel asked me. I laughed and shook my head no.
"Its just a saying sweetie. I just meant she thinks she is better than everyone else." I said so Rachel could understand me. She nodded. "Okay so where was i? Oh yea."
-We stopped at the table and I gave her a dirty look. "Excuse me? We were going to sit there." I said to her. Trying not to sound so winy and more confident, Austin looked at me apologetically. Why is he giving me that face, its not his fault.
"Well I'm here now so tuff luck. But you…" She said looking over at Austin, "Can stay if you want. Then again why wouldn't you want to?" She was right, she was one of the prettiest girls I've seen here. She had long, straight red hair that flowed to her back, her eyes were a hazel color, she had the perfect figure and her skin was flawless. Her comment made me think. With the amount of girls I've seen today, why would Austin even consider, when he could have all of these girls, settling for me?
"Okay," I said yawning, "I think that's all for tonight girls. Time to go to bed." I heard complaints. "Girl's I'll tell you more tomorrow." I said giving while Arianna a kiss on the forehead and tucking her in, then doing the same to Rachel. "Night girls. Love you both." I said while closing their door.
"Night mommy! Love you too." I heard them both say. I dragged myself down the hall to the master bedroom. Ugh I'm soo tired. When I got into the room I saw Austin's work clothes on the floor. Guess he is taking a shower. I pulled down the covers to the bed and made my way in. Snuggling up in the covers and slowly falling asleep. I woke up, probably 10 minutes later, after feeling someone give me a sweet kiss on the lips. I smiled and turned over to look at my husband. He was smiling at me, as he pulled me into his muscular chest, giving me a kiss on the forehead.
"Hi." He said into my hair, wrapping his arms around my waist. "I thought you were coming back soon? While I was waiting for you I decided to take a shower, hoping you might join me," He smiled at me when he said that, "But when I came out you were already asleep." Austin said to me, giving me his famous pouty face.
"I'm sorry honey I'm just really tired. I was writing songs today and then the recording studio took forever. I just got worn out. But how is your third book coming along?" Sam asked looking into her husbands eyes.
"It's coming. I have about half the book done. So that's a good thing. What did the girls want?" Austin asked.
"Oh they just wanted to hear a story. It just went longer than I planned. I'm sorry honey." I said back to him, giving him my own puppy dog face that I knew he couldn't resist. I gave him a sweet, loving kiss. "I love you." I said looking into his eyes, he smiled at me.
"I love you too. Night PrincetonGirl." He said referring to my old nickname from high school. He was the only one who used it, and the only one aloud to use it.
"Night Nomad." I said after I turned around and turned the bedside lamp off, then snuggling back into Austin.
I hope you all liked it. I just finished watching A Cinderella Story and I got inspiration. Even though this chapter might not have seemed that good i swear it will get better. Sam and Austin will have alot of obstacles in their relationship. But time and time again they find their way back together which just proves how much they are meant to be.
