Eeeeeekkkkkk! Don't yell at me, please! I know, I know…I haven't updated either of my stories, what the HELL am I doing writing another one?! Well…I don't really know. I just watched this movie, though…Life As We Know It, and I've been wanting to write and Auslly story based off of it for FOREVER and now that I watched it again I just couldn't help myself! But don't be worried…there will be several of my own Auslly twists in the story, it's not going to be just like the movie ;)
Plus, I've gotten the next chapter for BOTH stories almost done, so they'll be up soon! Promise! College is difficult, haha. So, don't be mad at me, and just enjoy the new story while you're waiting on the next chapters for Want You Bad and It's Me, It's You, And A Love That's True. I love you all!

Chapter 1: What where you thinking?!
A blind date. Totally not something I would EVER see myself doing….but yet, here I am. A 16 year old girl who's best friend thinks she can't get a date on her own, and feels the need to set me up with her current fling's best friend. Great. Greaty great great. I hope you're catching onto the sarcasm intended here. You see, my best friend Allison…she's not exactly the kind of girl you'd picture me associating with. She's the model type. Perfect curvy body, really tall with amazing legs, beautiful platinum blonde hair, and the most gorgeous blue eyes. I, on the other hand, have dull brown eyes, dull brown hair…you noticing a theme here? I'm super short, and don't even come up to Allison's shoulders when wearing high heels. She's the beauty queen of the school, head cheerleader, currently dating the quarter back of our RIVAL school…and I'm the wanna be musical prodigy who can't keep her nose out of her books long enough to even consider a love life. And yet, we are the best of friends. Allison is like my sister. Actually, I think we're even closer than that. We've been best friends since we were 3, the very first day of preschool. It was like fate, meeting her. We've helped each other through everything, never once allowing the judgments of what people thought of our strange friendship pull us apart. And I'd never want to have it any other way.
And yet, as I'm opening up my door to meet this 'mystery guy', I want to strangle her at this very moment and ask her what the hell she was thinking.
I open the door to reveal a tall blonde guy, with gorgeous dark brown eyes. He's dressed like a bad-ass, with his leather jacket and ripped jeans, right down to the converses and a shiny black motorcycle sitting in my driveway, and I've already got a bad feeling about this. He's openly checking me out, making the bad feeling amplify.
And then he opens his mouth.
"Hey, sexy. Want to just skip the date and go right to the good part?" He says huskily, smirking at me and leaning in the door jam.
I just smile 'sweetly' at him. "Oh yeah! The good part!" He makes a move as if to come inside, but stops once he sees my facial expression change to a dangerously furious look. "The good part where I tell you to get the hell off my property, because I don't know who the fuck you think you are talking to me like that!" Then I slam the door in his face, and slump against it.
Whoa. There is really something about that guy that messes with my head…I've never talked to someone like that before! I usually just roll my eyes and walk away if a guy talks to me like that! Well…maybe it was due to the fact that my BEST FRIEND set me up with the douche bag, thinking I'd actually LIKE him! I stomp my foot like the irritated little girl I am, and walk away, angrily texting Allison, so glad that I didn't even waste my time going out with him.
_page break_
Well, it's been two months since my first run in with Austin Moon. Yes, first. You see, the guy I thought was just another one of Allison's many flings? Well, they've actually been together all this time. Not once has she cheated on him or even thought about leaving him, even when she's drunk as hell at a party. I think she's actually falling in love with Darren, something she didn't ever think she would do. I'm so happy for her! I love love! Unfortunately for me, however, Darren making consistent boyfriend status required her best friend's approval. And oh, I approved. He's one hunky guy, equally as gorgeous as Allison. What I didn't realize, is that consistent boyfriend being approved by best friend, also equals hanging out with said approved boyfriend…and HIS friends. Ladies and gentlemen, Austin Moon, the scum bag that I can't seem to get out of my life. We're currently at a party that Darren is hosting. We as in, me and Will, Allison and Darren, and Austin is…well he's currently sitting on the couch with two blonde bimbos in his lap. Disgusting. I on the other hand, am trying to find a way, any..way…to get away from my 'date'. Allison seems to have picked another amazing guy (sarcasm definitely intended!) for me. Sure, he's sexy. He's tall, has an amazing 6 pack and huge biceps, dark hair and gorgeous blue eyes…he's definitely dreamy. But he's so, so, so dumb. I mean, he can't even carry on a conversation about anything more than sports, past party stories, and other girls he's been with! But I'll just dance with him for now so he'll stop pestering me, and get rid of him in the morning when he's...well, sober and not trying to make out with me every ten seconds.
Finally, after a grueling hour of allowing Will to grind all over me in the middle of a huge crowd of sweaty people, I use the excuse of needing to go to the bathroom to get away from him and the crowd. Parties are so not my scene. You'd never know it, considering I'm at every one of them, and I always manage to be dressed like a slut at every one of them thanks to Allison. So as I sneak out Darren's back door, I slip off my 6 inch stilettos, hike my already dangerously short and extremely tight black dress up even more, and sit on the edge of the pool dipping my feet in to calm myself. I lean my head back to look at the stars and sigh, cherishing my moment of peace. Since I'm alone, I decide to sing a little, knowing no one will hear me with the music blaring so loud inside.
"I watch the world float to the dark side of the moon
After all I knew it had to be something to do with you"
"Singing about me, are you?" I suddenly hear behind me, stopping abruptly and swinging my head around to face him, already knowing who was standing behind me. I send an icy glare to him, and he just chuckles and moves to sit beside me, kicking off his shoes and putting his feet in the water too. "Well, you can call me superman whether I'm crazy or not, and I'll gladly hold your hand." He says smirking down at me. I snort, making quite the unlady like sound, and he quirks an eyebrow at me.
"I wouldn't call you superman if it would save the world. You've already got an ego the size of Africa, you don't need yet another girl to make you feel better about yourself. Go get your blonde bimbos to do that." Damn, I sound like such a bitch every time he's around. He just gets me so angry!
But he doesn't seem to let it affect him, he just keeps that same damn smirk on his face, with a mischievous glint in his eyes. "Ally, babe. You know you'd call me a lot more than superman if I so much as touched you." I just roll my eyes at his perverted antics. But then he catches me off guard. "By the way, you've got quite the voice on you. Your voice is beautiful." I smile at him, genuinely, for the first time.
"Thank you Austin." Then I look down, suddenly shy at how intimate this moment seems, wondering how exactly we went from casual banter to this intense atmosphere.
"I bet it would sound even better screaming my name." He whispers, suddenly very close to me, and his breath tickling my ear.
Annnnnnnddddd, moment gone.
"Austin, you are such a pig!" I screech at him, then push him in the pool before I can even think twice about my own actions. He comes up out of the water, looking extremely pissed. I scramble up, and try to make a mad dash for the house. My clumsiness and overall un-athletic build, however, are no match for Austin's incredibly toned muscles and easy smoothness. He's out of the pool and has me by the waist and into the pool in 30 seconds flat. I come up spluttering curses, thinking Austin would have just left and gone back inside now that he'd gotten his 'revenge' on me. I'm surprised though, when I hear a load splash, and see Austin had removed his clothes down to his boxers and was swimming towards me. Once again, I make a lousy attempt to scramble out of the pool, but he's got me pushed up against the wall of the deep end of the pool, caging me in with both of his arms and his face mere inches from mine before I can even say song. "You ready to finish what you started, babe?"
"F-f-finish what?" I stutter, unable to think with him this close to me, but still trying to keep up my cold hearted façade. He smirks and leans in to kiss me, but I slap him before he can. While he's in shock from what just happened, I quickly swim to the ladder and jump out, not stopping until I'm in the house. I run straight into Will. Greeeeaaaatttt…
"Heeeyyy Allllyyyyy..where you beeenn?" He slurs. Oh, great. He's even more drunk then when I left him earlier.
"I have to go, Will. I had fun with you." I say, patting him on the chest quickly before I set off to find Allison. I finally find her, in the kitchen pouring herself a drink.
"Allison! I'm. Leaving. That idiot you set me up with is drunk as hell, Austin keeps putting his grimy hands on me and trying to kiss me, and I'm fed up with his shit! So when you're done here, you can find me at home." I shout at her, leaving her stunned as I storm out the door and to my car.
I hate Austin Moon.

Soooo…what do you guys think? Interesting spin on the story? Worth keeping up the hard work of another story? I'd like to think so, but it's ultimately up to you guys! So, review and let me know! :D And don't worry, Austin's not really such a jerk. He's just a hormonal teenager right now in the story, and, well, Ally's hot. Hahaha.
Oh, and I don't own the song Kryptonite by 3 Doors Down. Or Austin and Ally.
Love and Kisses!
