Hi. Please read the A/N at the bottom, it determines whether this story gets finished or not. The story's pretty much unedited, so excuse anything. Enjoy(:

"Austin hurry up!"

Austin involuntarily groaned and squirmed from underneath his covers at the sound of his mother's voice. He subconsciously started reaching around his bedside table to grab his phone. Being the awkward kid he is, he somehow (don't know how this is possible) managed to lose his balance and roll right off his bed, wrapping himself further into his sheets as he fell.

Smooth.

Two unsuccessful minutes later, Austin eventually found his phone and read out the time.

6:57 AM.

Fuck.

He carelessly threw his phone away and peeled the blankets off of his skin. He let out a long sigh as he sulked his way to the bathroom. You see, most seventeen year olds would be asleep at 6:57 (unless their school system made people wake up and an ungodly hour). To be fair, Austin would be too.

On this particular Saturday morning, Austin Moon was up bright and early (quite irritably) for one sole purpose only. A doctor's appointment. Yes, a stupid doctor's appointment. Apparently he was supposed to get a few shots for some cancer that he was never gonna get in 329287301 years. After getting dressed and whatever, Austin and his mom were out the door. He got into the passenger seat of his mothers car and looked at the time.

7:14 AM.

"Okay okay, I'll be there in 15."

Ally shut off her phone after listening to her best friend talk and talk for a good twenty minutes. It was 6:45 when she woke up, only because Trish called her 12 times about this new guy she met.

Yawn.

Now to top things off, she had to meet Trish at some new coffee place that just opened up. Ally said that she'd meet Trish in 15 minutes, and yet she was still in her bed. Oops. She bolted out of her bed and went to brush her teeth. After applying eyeliner and a few coats of mascara, she ran downstairs. To her surprise, her dad was downstairs making a pot of coffee. He lifted his head to her and smiled.

"Did you want any coffee?" He questioned.

Ally shook her head and smiled. "No, I'm gonna go stop by and get some with Trish." She smiled and grabbed an apple. "I have to go, but I'll see you soon okay?" She kissed his cheek lightly before rushing out of the door. She walked to her car and got in. She adjusted her mirrors and turned on the radio. She cringed at the sound of pop songs that blared through her radio. Ally tried tuning the radio, but all the radio stations seemed to play the same songs.

Ugh.

She finally settled on blasting Led Zeppelin through her speakers. She inwardly sighed before starting up her car. After a few minutes, she glanced over at the time.

7:16 AM.

7:28. It was 7:28 AM and they were still on the road. Austin's mother tried to make small talk with him, asking him about his studies and such, but Austin wasn't up for talking. He was especially tired and just stared out the window. He tried to turn on the radio, but his mom just gave him a hard glare before he sunk further into his seat.

Needless to say, Austin was kind of an awkward kid.

Traffic was especially bad today. Apparently a lot of people had this insane idea that waking up before 8 AM on a daily basis was ok. He stared straight ahead and saw red light. Another red light. It was probably the third one in a row, and he was just so bored. At least they were in the lane that was supposed to turn left, and that was the last turn to arrive at the doctor's office. He glanced at the time once again, trying to make time go by faster.

7:32 AM.

He tried passing the time by staring out the window like people did in the movies. Y'know when people are totally deep in thought and start contemplating life? Yeah that. The road beside him was completely empty until a gray convertible slammed on the brakes and stopped right next to them. He examined their car. It was slightly dirty with a few scratches here and there. His eyes roamed everywhere from the mirrors to the tires. Austin had been just a little obsessed with cars when he was younger. Only a little. Sarcasm intended.

His eyes stopped on the girl in the drivers seat. She had gorgeous flowy chestnut curls that ended right by her ribs. She looked so calm and innocent, and for some reason, Austin couldn't tear his eyes off of her. Without thinking, he lifted his right hand and knocked on his window a few times, hoping to get her attention. When she didn't spare him a glance, he let out a small huff and knocked louder and more urgently. She whipped her head towards him and tilted her head slightly with curiosity. Her eyebrows scrunched together ever so slightly. He let out a smile and mouthed a small greeting towards her.

"Hi," he mouthed.

What is happening.

Those were Ally's first thoughts as she stared at a goofy haired, bleach blonde guy. She became extremely flustered, not gonna lie, when he started to smile at her. Her eyes visibly widened. She nervously stared back, not even sure if it was her that this was all directed to. After he mouthed words to her, she immediately began looking around her car and to the car beside her to see what else he might be staring at. Well the driver in the next car over was a middle aged bald man who was in the middle of eating a sandwich.

So he actually was talking to her.

She turned to look at the stoplight for a split second. Still red. She then turned her head again to look at the blonde boy who had stolen her attention. He was still smiling at her, surprise surprise. She opened her mouth to say something, but nothing came out. Her lips formed a thin line, then averted her gaze to anything else. She turned down the radio slightly, interrupting the loud music of the Beatles. Her eyes glanced at the time.

7:32 AM.

She couldn't help but to look back at the boy. She turned her head to the left once again, and of course, the blonde is still staring at her. His eyes twinkled when he looked at her, but to be honest, she was a little freaked out. For some reason though, she couldn't stop staring at him. She took notice of how gorgeous his eyes are and how she wanted to run her fingers through his hair. Just being honest here.

It seemed like forever before she gathered the courage to smile back at the boy. It was a faint smile, but the boy seemed to brighten at the sight. He gave her a toothy smile before she started to giggle softly.

Right when Ally was about to mouth something back to him, she was snapped out of her trance by the sound of angry cars blaring their horns furiously. She snapped her head forward and saw that the stoplight changed colors.

It was green. Green meant go.

Ally nervously swallowed and looked at the blonde one last time. She wasn't sure how to feel. Why was she so hung up over this guy who she hasn't even properly met? She just couldn't leave him for some reason. But no matter the reason, she had to. So with all the horns numbing her senses, she did what was only logical.

She stepped on the gas.

He watched as her car sped right past him. Of course she would've left, he hadn't even talked to her properly, but something in her big chocolate eyes made him think that she didn't want to leave. His face immediately filled with horror and sorrow as he watched cars fly right past him. He had to see her again. He jumped in his seat and faced his mom. He began slapping his mom's arm furiously.

"Mom merge lanes!" He pointed to the lane next to him and placed his hand on the steering wheel. His mother stared back at him as if he was bat shit crazy, because right now, she thought he was. He saw the expression on her face. "Please mom? It's important!" He pleaded and made his eyes widen.

His mother eventually gave in (damn his puppy dog eyes) and merged lanes to follow the girl's car. His heart immediately began to beat even faster at the thought of chasing her. He looked farther ahead and was eternally grateful for the red stoplight that was approaching. As they stopped, he realized that the girl's car was two or three cars ahead of him. He started to panic slightly before placing his hands on the steering wheel again.

"Mom merge lanes again!" He pleaded. His mom gave him the "are you fucking with me" look before questioning him.

"Austin what's going on?" His mother asked.

"Mom please, just merge to the left lane okay? Then you can make a U turn and then we can go to the doctor's office okay?" Austin talked quickly yet smoothly. His mother gave a long sigh before moving into the left lane.

"I don't know what's wrong with you, but I guess it's nothing the doctor can't figure out," his mother explained. Austin rolled his eyes as they landed on a pretty gray convertible.

Just a few more inches.

As the first car in their lane drove away, Austin's car slowly became adjacent to the girl's convertible. He smiled brightly before knocking on the window again. Loudly.

Knock.

Knock.

Knock.

She turned her head again, and surprise filled her eyes. He couldn't smile any bigger. Panic flew through his body as he realized that they both had to be places, and couldn't keep up this weird meeting much longer. He found a pen on the mat by his feet and scrambled to find something to write on. He looked around to the backseat and quickly snatched a Chinese food takeout menu that had been left after buying lunch one day. He took the pen and wrote in huge size 10 digits. He capped the pen and shoved the paper onto the window so that the girl could see it.

Hopefully she would understand.

What

The

Hell.

He was there again, in plain sight. He had knocked vigorously on the window once again, and of course, it captured her attention. How did he manage to do that? She couldn't help but to smile at his goofy lopsided smile that he had sewn onto his face. He scrunched his eyebrows together before looking all around for a few things. She kept an eye on the stoplight this time, because she had a feeling if she missed the light again, people would be utterly pissed.

She glanced at the boy one more time, only to see a pink paper plastered onto the window of the car. The window where the boy was previously apparent. The paper had all kinds of writing on it. The thing that really caught her attention were the messy numbers that were written onto the paper. 10 digits. Her eyes widened in realization.

She was getting hit on through a window.

She didn't know what to do. She could always take the number and call him, or she could just wait it out and see how many more of these encounters she has with him. Curiosity swept over her as she thought. What was the worst that could happen? They could talk, get to know each other, and become friends. Or something more. Who knows? Seventeen year olds need excitement too.

She shrugged her shoulders and found a pen.

He watched as she contemplated his action. He noticed how adorable she was when she scrunched up her nose while she was thinking. He smiled when he saw her reach around for something. He smiled even bigger when he realized that something was a pen. He was honestly just so happy right now.

But apparently, the universe was not on his side.

The light for his lane to turn had just turned green. As the cars in front of him moved forward, his mother stepped on the gas and pushed them forward.

His face filled with shock. "Mom wait!" He cried.

"Austin we have to go!" His mother replied. It was still only 7:49 AM. He rolled his eyes once again. He immediately took off the paper from his window, unbuckled his seat belt, and reached behind him. He smothered the backseat window with the paper in hopes of the girl getting his number.

As the car made a U turn, Austin threw his legs over the little bridge that separated the drivers and passengers seat and made his way to the backseat.

"Austin what are you doing?" His mother cried out. Her son was acting absolutely crazy right now.

He shook his head and sat in the left most seat in their car. He took the paper and put it up to the window to see if she could get the entire number from this view. As soon as he knew that it would be impossible to read the numbers from the distance they were at, he took the paper off of the window and slumped into the seat.

"Austin what's wrong with you today?" His mother scolded. She had just witnessed her son jump over the compartment and run to the backseat in the span of one U turn.

"What's wrong?" He thought. Only one thing.

He didn't know if she got his number.

I'm sorry. I'm so sorry. I haven't been on here in months, maybe even close to one year. It's just that I've joined a bunch of sports and stuff and I don't have a lot of time to write. I don't know why, but it was kind of a struggle to write this. I just remembered about fanfiction maybe two days ago and realized that I should upload something. So here it is.

In all honesty, I don't read much right now. I still get alerts sent to my email, and all the new chapters are just sitting in my inbox folder, unread, because I promise myself that I'm going to read them. There are about 30 chapters that I haven't read yet.

I don't really have a growing interest for this as much as I did. I used to put out new chapters every day, and now it's more like when I get the time or desire to do this.

So here's the deal. If you liked this chapter, then please LISTEN. If I get a good response for this chapter/story thing, then I will continue it. It might not be tomorrow or this week, but it will happen. If I only get a few requests to finish this, I'll just leave it be and let you guys imagine how you want it. It's really up to you guys.

Idk man, It's 1:11 AM right now and I'm tired. And I wrote this entire thing in one day and it's so rushed, unedited, and sloppy. I'm not even sure I liked how this turned out.

And as for The Person Beyond, I'm not sure when I'll be updating that. I hate stopping a story in the middle, so I'm thinking about finishing that. I'm really sorry about all of this.

I love you all, and thank you for everything xx
