I don't own Austin and Ally or this plot line, I saw it on "Unfabulous" and though I could "Auslly-fy " it!
Ally's Pov
Isn't high school bad enough? I feel that there's a group of adults who sit around a conference table somewhere figuring out new ways to make teenager's live miserable. I can just picture them, pointing at a slide show explaining that acne, raging hormones and bad hair is simply not enough. No, they had come up with braces. Those stupid metal brackets that wire your teeth shut with embarrassingly bright colored rubber bands around them. Those metal food clogging labyrinths that seem to catch even the tiniest bit of any sort of nourishment. And let's not forget the agonizing pain you're in when you first get them or after you get them tightened. Some consider them a rite of passage, others, like me, just find them a nuisance.
If you haven't caught on already, I had just gotten home from the orthodontist's with a shiny new set of braces. Luckily I only have to wear them for a month until my new "Invisiline" sets come in. I'd been putting off getting them for around two years now but my dad finally cracked after asking countless amounts of times and made me an appointment.
"They're not that bad! You can't even really notice them!" Trish said, rubbing my back as we sat on stools outside of "Mini's"
"Yes they are, I look like a doof!" I whined "I'm never gonna get to go out with Austin looking like a metal mouthed freak" I murmured
Yes, if you must know, I like Austin. I mean, how could you not? He's cute, and sweet, and a great friend and... Hey! I don't have to explain anything to you! … Sorry… I'm a little on edge because of this whole braces thing…
"Yes you will, he loves you!" She said cheerfully, she really is a great friend
"No he doesn't…. And he won't now! Plus, he has a girlfriend! I don't see him and "Scrapbook" Katie (A/N Sorry! I can't remember her real name, if you do, please let me know!) breaking up anytime soon" I know I was just making myself sadder but I think I deserve to mope now and again
"Hey girls!" speak of the devil, Austin came around the corner, holding hands with Katie
"Hey" I said quietly with my hand in front of my mouth trying to hide the evil metal contraption
"Ally, I already know you got braces, let me see" he chuckled
I hesitantly took away my hand and smiled
"Ahem" Trish nudged me and pointed at my raspberry smoothie
Oh. My. God. Was this really happening to me? Did have raspberry in my teeth? I closed my mouth and ran over my teeth with my tongue. Yep.
Austin chuckled; "Hey, they look great, even with the raspberries" and waved good bye with his un-occupied hand, then walked away with the luckiest girl in the world
Why me?
"Hey, are we still going to Dallas' birthday party on Friday?" Trish asked
"No! I don't want anybody to see me like this! I'm just going to hide out in my room for the month!" I protested
"Alright, alright! I have to go, Rodger and I have plans to watch Billy Madison tonight" she smiled
"Didn't you watch that last night?" I asked
"This is the DVD version where Adam Sandler does the commentary as Billy Madison. Need I say more?" she giggled
"Alright, leave me in my loneliness" I frowned
"Do you want me to stay?" she frowned, knowing that I would say;
"No, go ahead I-" she squealed before I could finish my sentence, hugged me, said "You're the best! I owe you one!" and ran off, leaving me alone to sit with my raspberry smoothie and sorrow
