Hey Loves! So I'm here with a new story just for you!(: I hope you like it! I honestly have no idea how it will turn out since I only have the first chapter written :) Review please!(: Thanks!
Disclaimer: Well, I got rid of you for a while. I don't own Austin and Ally.
A&A
"What!" 16 year old Austin Moon exclaimed as his parents told him he would be moving to Miami. Not only that, but they were making him go to a public high school. He had gone to a private school in Boston his whole life. This would be a drastic change; this would be something he did not want to go through with.
"Austin," started Mike, Austin's father, "son, I'm sorry. You knew the rule, though. This is your punishment," he explained. Austin rolled his eyes and trudged up the stairs, defeated and angry. He opened his bedroom door and slammed it shut, making the house shake.
It was about the only way he could let his anger out. He threw himself on his bed face-first. He buried his face into a pillow and screamed. It came out a muffled sound. What was he supposed to do in Miami? He had his whole life here in Boston. Not to mention, he had his friends here as well.
The last thing Austin wanted to do was hang out with a bunch of losers in a public school. He despised his French teacher so much. If that old man had given him a passing grade, Austin wouldn't be in this mess.
You see, Austin's parents noticed earlier in the year that his grades weren't too good, so they made a rule in hopes that Austin would try harder; he had to pass every class, or he would have to move to Miami with his Grandma Ruth. Austin didn't believe that his parents would actually send him away, so he dismissed the rule. Yet, here he was.
A&A
"Are you ready to go?" Mike asked his son sternly. Austin nodded solemnly. "Come on, Austin. Cheer up," his mother, Mimi encouraged. Austin smiled in fake manner. "Oh my bad. Yay!I get to spend who-knows-how-long in Miami with an old person! My biggest dream," he deadpanned.
Mike had had enough of his son's attitude and hoped that Miami would do him well. "Listen up!" Mike demanded harshly, "Your grandmother is a nice lady. If I get even the slightest complaint from her, I will send you away to a military academy. Do you hear me? Your mother and I are sick of your attitude, and we expect you to be more respectful toward people. Understand?" he finished huffing.
Austin, scared, nodded. Mimi, who had been watching while frowning, hugged her son tightly. She loved him no matter what. Now don't get Mike wrong, he loved his son too, but sometimes Austin was far too rude and obnoxious.
He needed to be straightened up and if going to Miami for a while would help with this problem, then so be it.
A&A
As Austin stared out the window of the plane that was taking him to his doom he wondered where his life went wrong. Sure, he could be a bit rude at times; he wasn't the smartest person in his class, either. But his parents took things too far by sending him to live in in Miami.
He sighed loudly and looked out, down below him, to the palm trees. Something rarely, if ever, seen back in Boston. He slowly leaned his head on the window and closed his eyes.
He tried to picture or remember what his grandma looked like. As much as he tried he just could not remember her. Her name was Ruth; that much he knew.
The flight announcer came through the speakers and informed everyone that the plane had landed. Austin sighed and stood up along with everyone else in his section of the plane.
"Let the torture begin," he muttered to himself.
A&A
"Austie!" Someone yelled from somewhere in the crowd of people, hustling through the airport. He turned around and saw an old lady smiling widely at him. She had hazel eyes that matched her excitement. She was a very fit woman for her age. Her hair was grey, but still flowed over her shoulders beautifully.
She walked speedily toward him and hugged him very tightly. "Uhmm. Hello," Austin greeted awkwardly. Oh, how he hoped this wasn't Grandma Ruth. Sure, she seemed like a sweet old lady, but she was also embarrassing. "Oh don't be shy, Austie. I'm your grandmother for crying out loud!" The lady said enthusiastically, refusing to let go of the poor boy.
Now, Grandma Ruth was no fool. She knew her grandson and his ways. She knew that he was embarrassed, but that's just her way of straightening people out. She had a plan. She was no fool.
"Grandma Ruth! How nice to see you! It's been forever," Austin said once he remembered what his father had told him. The last thing he wanted was to be sent to a military academy.
"I know, sweetie. Now let's go home and catch up. We have a lot to talk about," Grandma Ruth said cheerfully. Austin smiled at her enthusiasm politely. "Yeah, that'd be great. Let's go," Austin said hastily.
This didn't go unnoticed by Grandma Ruth, however. She wasn't a stranger to attitude. That was the first step in her plan.
Step 1. Fix Attitude.
Grandma Ruth was different from most people with plans; those people always started out with the easiest and ended with the hardest. Grandma Ruth, however, went from hardest to easiest. It's her ways; don't question them.
"Where's your car?" Austin asked, eager to leave as soon as possible. Grandma Ruth held back a smirk as she pointed to an old, beat-up, pink buggy. "Let's go," she said while walking ahead of the gaping Austin.
He put his head down and quickly walked over to the beast. Not a good beast either.
He swiftly got in and kept his head down. He hoped that no one had seen him get into this thing. "Nice car, huh?" Grandma Ruth asked while looking at the inside proudly. She was enjoying this way too much.
"Yeah.." Austin looked around and frowned. He would be driving around in this for who-knows-how-long. "Great," he muttered under his breath. "Grandma Ruth, can I ask you something?" Austin asked while buckling his seat belt. Grandma Ruth did the same and started the car. Austin winced as the engine abruptly turned on.
"Sure. What's the matter?" Grandma Ruth asked while pulling out of the airport, much to Austin's pleasure. "H-how long will I be staying here?" Austin asked hesitantly. "As long as you need to, Austin. I'm not the one that decides that. It all depends on how you act and what your parents think. Don't get your hopes up though. Your parents aren't stupid and neither am I," Grandma Ruth replied smiling.
Austin looked at her questioningly. "What's that supposed to mean?" he asked, looking away from the window to face her. "You'll see in time. Just act right," she suggested, ending the conversation.
They were silent for the rest of the car ride. "We're here," Grandma Ruth said as she turned the beast off. Austin looked out the window and was pleased with what he saw.
The house was colored yellow and white. It was a decent size and looked pretty cozy. "If you like the outside, you'll adore the inside," Grandma Ruth stated as she helped Austin take his suitcases out of the trunk.
"I'm sure," Austin replied. He tried to sound less sarcastic than what he actually would've sounded. Grandma Ruth knew this and planned to fix that too. She had done this many times. There's a reason why Austin's parents went to her for help.
Grandma Ruth was known for changing people for the better. Many teenagers around Austin's age loved her for 'saving' them. She was very humble and always told them to believe in themselves.
They walked into the house, and Austin smiled. As soon as you entered the house the first thing you would see was Austin's baby pictures. They weren't embarrassing either. They were more like happy memories.
"Your mother always liked to look at those before you moved to Boston. She said they were comforting so I kept them there," Grandma Ruth explained. "I look good," Austin bragged.
Grandma Ruth rolled her eyes while walking up stairs. "Come on, I want to show you your room," she ordered. Austin followed and stared at the plain room in front of him.
"I wasn't sure what your style was, so I left it plain. You can do whatever you want with it," Grandma Ruth explained. By the way Austin was acting, she knew he would be here awhile.
Austin nodded and looked around. There was so much he could do with it; the problem was that he didn't know what to do first. "I'll let you get settled. Come down for dinner in about 2 hours, okay?" Grandma Ruth made sure to take note in her mind of how he was acting now. Later, she would write it down and compare it to how much he changed in the end.
A&A
Knock Knock "Austin, dinner's ready. Come down in 5 minutes," Grandma Ruth said from behind the door. Austin, who had been lying down staring at the ceiling, sighed and rolled his eyes.
If he were back in Boston, he would be going out with his friends instead of having dinner with an old lady. He grumpily got out of bed and walked out of the room. He could smell his grandmother's food cooking. He had to admit that it smelt amazing; much better than Boston's food.
Grandma Ruth smiled as she saw her grandson walk into the kitchen with a guilty look on his face. As smart as she was, she didn't know why he would look guilty. "What's the matter, Austin?" she asked curiously.
Austin looked at his grandmother and shook his head dismissively. "Nothing. I'm fine. The food smells great!" He replied, changing the subject. Grandma Ruth smiled and motioned for him to take a seat at the table. "Sit now. It'll be served in a minute." With that, Austin sat down and looked around the dining room.
The walls were colored a baby blue color with swirl designs going across the top, all around the room. Pictures were placed here and there in random places. They were in no specific order. He could get used to this eventually.
"Here you go," Grandma Ruth said, placing a plate filled with lasagna and rice. "I'm not sure about now, but when you were a small one, you loved lasagna with rice," Grandma Ruth said while sitting down with her own plate of food. She instantly began eating while Austin stared at his food.
He smiled and picked up his fork. "This is really good," he said once he had taken a bite. Grandma Ruth smiled proudly and continued to eat. "Oh, I hate to tell you this now, but you're starting school in 2 days." Austin's eyes widened as his fork hit the plate loudly.
"What!" he shrieked. His grandma looked at him sadly and shrugged slowly. "Sorry, Austin; that's how your father wanted it," she explained. "Well my father is a jerk!" he yelled angrily.
"Austin, there is a reason you're here, and it's not just because of your grades. Your parents aren't happy with your attitude. I can see why, too. If you ever want to go back to Boston, then you'll act right. Okay?" Grandma Ruth said softly. Austin eased up and nodded.
'This'll be a true challenge,' thought Grandma Ruth to herself. Boy, was she right.
So, how was it? This is just introducing the main people for now. Don't worry, Ally will be here soon. I'm trying to write differently just to challenge myself. I really would like to know how this was! You guys were so nice with your beautiful reviews on Destined to Meet!(: Thank you Loves! Welcome new readers!(:
