"Why do you have to go on vacation with Dallas!" I whined as my roommate and best friend, Cassie, packed. She looked up me and smiled.
"Its okay! You won't be alone. Ive arranged for you to go stay with one of my close friends." She said and started to pack again. I raised my eyebrows and crossed my arms.
"Who is this guy?" I asked. She didn't look up at me. That's when I could tell she was nervous.
"Its one of my old friends from highschool. Trust me you'll like him." She said whilst still looking down at her suitcase. My frown deepened.
"Cassie. Tell. Me. Now." I said and she looked up at me gave me a stern look. I glared at her and she glared right back. We continued glaring at each other till there was at knock at the door. Neither of us moved to open the door. The knocking became louder and more constant.
Cassie finally looked away from me and towards the door. She gave me one last glare before going to answer the door. She opened the door and it revealed Dallas. A smile immediately lit up her face.
"Hey babe!" She said and hugged him around the waist. He gather her in a hug and kissed the top of her head.
"How are my two favorite girls?" He asked as they pulled away. I smiled at him sweetly and quickly hugged him. We had all been friends since we were 10 and had always been close.
"Good." Cassie and I said at the same time. She looked at me and smiled at me. I smiled back. Even though we were just glaring at each other only five minutes before. We could never fight or stay serious with each other.
"So, are you both ready to go?" He asked. We both nodded. Dallas took both of our suitcases and duffle bags and loaded them on his arms. We walked down the hall to the elevator and pressed the button to take us down to the lobby. I leaned my back against the walk of the elevator and closed my eyes.
Cassie and Dallas were both whispering in the corner of the elevator. I had learned throughout the years that they both really sucked at whispering.
"Have you told her where she's staying yet?" He asked and there was a moment of silence.
"No, she would freak out." She said. Why the hell would I freak out? I don't freak out that much. I do get jealous and mad a lot, but not freaked out.
"Well, she's gonna freak out once she sees who it is." He said. After he said that the elevator dinged. Signalling that we had reached the lobby and could get out. We walked out and to Dallas' car that was parked out front.
I got in the back while Cassie got in front with him. I pulled out my iPhone and put in my earbuds. I started my music, leaned my head back, and closed my eyes. This was gonna be a long ride.

"Ally! Wake up! We are here." Cassie said as she shook me awake. I rubbed my eyes and got out of the car. I looked around and my eyes widened. There were big mansions all around me and expensive cars.
"Cassie, where the hell are we?" I asked. She laughed at me but grabbed my hand and pulled me up to the front door.
"We are at your home for the next six months." She said. I nodded quietly as she rang the door bell. We stood there for a few seconds before the door was answered.
"Hey Austin!" She said and hugged the tall blonde that had answered the door. He wrapped his arms around her back and pulled her close.
"Hey Cass!" He said. They let go of each other and his eyes landed on me. He smiled and held his hand out for me to shake.
"I'm Austin Moon, international singer and dancer." He said while shaking my hand.
"Ally." I said quietly. Of course I would play shy around the new guy.
"Cass, we really gotta go if we wanna catch our plane." Dallas said from behind us. I had almost forgot he was right there. Cass nodded.
"Bye Ally, bye Austin. See you both in six months!" She said and ran down to the car with Dallas. I watched as they drove off together. I turned back to Austin and looked at him.
"Well, I guess I'll show you to your room." He said. I nodded and followed him into the house. He led me up a stair way and opened a door. He set my bags down and let me in the room. It was a decent size, there was a bathroom, and a big closet. I nodded my head and turned around. Austin was still standing there. I raised my eyebrows and he stratched the back of his neck.
"Well. I'll call you down when dinner is ready." He said and then walked out of the room. I shook my head and went to the bed to sleep.

"So, how old are you?" He asked as we sat down at the table together. We sat across from each other in the kitchen.
"I just turned 19." I said with my mouth full of pasta. He smirked at me before taking a bite of his pasta as well.
"I'm 25." He said and I raised my eyebrows. You may be 25, but you are pretty damn hot.
"So Cass left me with a old man." I said and he laughed.
"Well, she left me with a young girl." He said and I smiled. I shook my head.
"So, what's it like be a international superstar?" I asked.
"Its pretty cool. I get all the ladies and I'm doing what I love. I just get this amazing feeling when I'm on stage. Like I can do anything. Performing makes me feel alive." He said and he had a starry eyed look in his eyes.
"You just sounded like a total girl but I know what you mean." I said. We smiled at each other and continued eating.
Maybe Cassie being gone wouldn't be as bad as I though it would be.
