Hi, hope you guys enjoy this story and review… I don't own anything.

Ally's POV

"Come on down Ally, so we won't get stuck in traffic and miss your flight," My dad yelled upstairs while I was packing my final things from my room.

"Coming dad," I yelled back. I was moving about slowly because I didn't want to think about orientation, moving out, college, classes, or anything. I wasn't ready to for New York. Who was I kidding? I'm not ready to leave for college.

I headed toward the steps along with my last suitcase, my carry-on, and my purse. My younger cousin, Jay, who was here to see me off, came over and grabbed my suitcase and carry-on and took it to the car. Jay would be staying in my room while I was gone so that he could go to school in a better district. He was tough to understand but if you really knew him, you'd love him. He was 15 and had pretty dark brown hair and green eyes. He was going to be a starting running back on his school's football team. He was truly talented with football and music but he mostly played instruments although he could sing.

When I finally made it downstairs, I could see my mom, looking very impatient, and my dad, who looked sad. This would be the last time I saw him until Thanksgiving break. "Thanks Jay, for bringing my bags down."

"I'd do anything to get you move faster. You have a flight to New York to catch." I chuckled. I knew he would miss me; we were like best friends and I was his confidant. I stepped closer to him and hugged him. "I'll miss you, Ally," he said, his voice breaking. He tightened his hug and we stayed like that for a few minutes.

"I'll miss you too, Jay." I was full-out crying. He was really like a little brother to me and I didn't know what I'd do without him. We pulled away and then I turned to Dallas. We had been together for two years but had decided to break up because we didn't want to be long-distance. He opened his arms and I jumped into them. I really cared for Dallas and we had fun together and I really don't want to be separated from him. He would be attending a community college here in Miami. He wasn't that bright. He pulled away after a few seconds, looked around to make sure my parents weren't watching, and pecked me on the lips. Now I'm going to tell you guys a secret, I never feel sparks when me and Dallas kiss and I'm not in love with him. I love him but I'm nowhere near in love with him. I turned to my best friend, Kira. She was sobbing. I hugged her really tight.

"Oh my gosh, Ally, I'm going to miss you so much. What am I going to do without you? Who am I going to have sleepovers with and talk to everyday?" She sobbed into my shoulder. She was an awesome friend, almost like a sister to me. We did everything with each other It would be hard without her but she was going to the Duke University. Kira wouldn't be heading out there until next week. She was amazing at interior design.

"Oh, Kira, I'm going to miss you. You will always be my best friend. You are the most amazing person ever." I was crying harder now, I would be so lost without Kira.

Finally, I pulled away because I had one more person to say bye to. I wiped my tears. I turned to my dad to see him already holding his arms out. I ran and jumped into his arms. My dad was someone who was always there for me. And even though he worked me hard at the store he owns, Sonic Boom, I know he loves me.

My dad pulled away and I looked around. At my childhood home. At my friends. At my dad. And finally at my mom. My mom who would finally be living in the same place as me. My mom would be moving to New York too to run the new Sonic Boom that would be opening up there. My mom had bought a three bedroom house there that was near the school and the store. My parents had finally gotten a divorced, and though I wasn't happy about it then, I know it was for the best.

I had a student apartment that was near the school but wasn't a dorm. I thought it would better to live off campus since I still had to work at Sonic Boom and everything.

My mom and I got into the car. As she pulled away, I looked into the rearview to see four of the people I care about most waving at the car.

I, Allyson Marie Dawson, would be living in New York and attending Performing Arts and Music University of New York. [A/N PAMU for short.]

Austin's POV

"Hey Austin, wait up!" I slowed down when I heard my name. I saw it was my girlfriend, Cassidy. I smiled and stopped, when she caught up to me I threw my arm around her shoulders and we continued walking. We were both heading to the Electricity café. We were meeting some of our friends there.

"So, Cassidy, I was thinking we could hang out at the arcade or catch a movie or something tomorrow." I smiled at the thought of hanging out with my girlfriend at a dark theater and watching a horror film. Those dates usually always ended up with sex. Not that I'm sex-crazed or anything but I am a man with needs… that sometimes have to be taken care of.

"Sorry Austin, but I have to practice with my band tomorrow. And you know that after that I'm heading out to L.A. for this gig that Danny booked." She started excitedly and animatedly talking about her band and this gig, not even noticing the scowl that appeared on my face when she mentioned Danny. I didn't like that guy at all and I know the two of them were in a band but they spent too much time together for comfort.

We arrived at the café and immediately spotted our friends at our usual table. This café was more like a poetry club but instead of poetry there was singing. Everything was real chill and laid back here.

We walked over to the table and greeted our friends. There was Trent, Elliot, Dez, Trish, Brooke, and Kimmy. Cassidy and I were apparently the last ones to arrive. I go and sit next to Dez, my best friend, and Cassidy goes and sits next to Kimmy, her best friend. Trent, Dez, Trish, and I all attend Performing Arts and Music University of New York. Trent and Trish are in the dance program, Dez in drama, and I'm in music. Elliot, Brooke, and Kimmy are at NYU. Elliot for law, Brooke for medicine, and Kimmy for dentistry. Cassidy doesn't go to school; she is totally invested in her band.

"Austin, I asked the owner about you being a regular performer and getting paid for it, she said she wanted to meet with you and hear your demo before she decides. The meeting is Thursday at 1:15 sharp." Trish informs me. I'm really into music and love to perform. Trish sorta acts as my manager. It's really the only job, she's good at.

"Cool Trish, thanks." I replied and stood up.

"Austin, I mean it. It took a lot to for me to get this meeting for you. You better be there on time. Actually you should be there early." Trish glared at me and I backed up a little. She scared me. She may be short but she could be very intimidating.

"Ok, Trish, I got it. I'll be there at 1:00. Definitely." I replied and then walked over to the counter and ordered me and Cassidy's drinks. Cassidy never paid for her own things, even when we weren't even dating, I had to pay. I'm used to it by now though.

After I received our drinks, I walked back to the table and handed Cassidy her drink. She kept on talking and sipped her drink. And then dramatically spit it out.

"Eww, Austie, you know I like no sugar, this is definitely sugar. Yuck!" She screeched across the small café.

"Sorry Cass, I forgot. You know I didn't do it on purpose." I leaned in and kissed her but she pulled away.

"Austin, you're supposed to remember those kinds of things. Anyway I have to go. Danny just texted and the band has an emergency practice." She pecked my lips and left.

Now that she was gone, the tension was lifted and everyone was having fun again. But eventually everyone had lives to get back to.

"Bye, Austin, I'll catch up with you later." I heard while walking and other various farewells.

I got to my apartment and got on the elevator. When it got to my floor, I wasn't really looking and bumped into someone. I looked up and it was this beautiful brunette with blonde ends and chocolate eyes. She was kinda short, really curvy, and very extremely hot.

"Hi, I'm Austin Moon." I smiled, took her hand and kissed it. When I saw her blush, I winked.

"H-hi I'm Ally. Ally Dawson." She smiled.

Author's Note

Okay so I apologize if I get anything wrong or if it's not realistic. I've never been to New York. And I just randomly made up a university name so if its real then oops. I'm trying but it's hard without experience. Thank you for everyone that understands this. Sorry for any mistakes.

Please read and review and tell me what you think.
