Chapter 1

Ross POV:

I know what you're thinking. Me and Laura would be perfect together. And don't get me wrong, it's not like I haven't thought about it or anything, it's just I feel like that's all people look at me as. Like, that's the guy from Austin and Ally, he and Laura are going to get married one day. And I don't mean to sound ungrateful or anything, I really am really proud of what I've accomplished and I'm thankful for all the fans have done and what Austin and Ally has done for me. It's just, sometime I want people to see me as an actor and musician, not just a love interest.

I wish people could see guys and girls as just friends, I mean yeah, Laura is my friend and all and she's great, but people assume everything I say is cause I'm in love with Laura. I'm not saying it could never happen, it's just people always take things too far. Friends care for each other too. It's jus-

"Ross come on! If you don't come down and eat soon you'll show up to the set starving!" I heard Rydel shout from downstairs.
"Coming!" I shouted. Guess that was the longest downtime I'll have today. I'm a pretty carefree guy but I like having time to just sit down and think you know?

I shuffled down the stairs and grabbed some Cap'n Crunch and poured it into a bowl. Rydel was making a smoothie while Rocky was tuning his guitar. Someone is always playing an instrument around my house. Laura says that's what she loves about being at my house, it's always full of music.

"Ross you good man?" Rocky looked up from his magazine. I guess I must have looked deep in thought. "Yeah I'm fine. I'm gonna head over to the set." I put my bowl in the sink, put on my favorite converse, shook out my hair and grabbed my keys.

I arrived at the set, it was Friday which means it was a live taping day. I like live tapings, I love seeing the fans and seeing their reactions to the episode first hand. But it is more pressure cause you don't want to mess up in front of them.

I was reviewing my lines as I walked onto the lot into the studio where suddenly the door hit me and caused me to stumble and fall on the ground.

"Oh my gosh I'm so sorry Ross!"
I looked up to see Laura's face full of concern as she bent down to help me up.

"Nice Laur, keep this up and you'll have to find yourself a new co-star" I said with tease in my voice.

"Hmm maybe Calum will have to be the new Austin. I've always imagined Austin as a redhead" she said with a wink. "Come on we need to get to hair and makeup."

With a laugh I followed Laura inside.

"Maybe we should take longer, I hate what they do to my hair. Remember last episode? My hair looked so bad. I wish they would just let me be like Calum. They barely do anything to his hair."

Laura laughed and whenever she laughs I can't help but look at her. She's one of those people who when they smile, they light up a room, you can't help but smile when she laughs.

"I agree, they do mess up your hair a little bit and comb it over but hey, Ally seems to dig it."

I nodded as we entered the room. As soon as we walked in Calum was leaving, and he knows how much I hate them doing my hair. "Have fun buddy" he said with laugh and ruffled my hair with his hand.
Calum is 4 years older than me, but we see each other as equals.

Calum left as I sat down in the chair next to Laura with a pout on my face.
"Ross your hair isn't going to look that bad, no one notices anyway!" Laura tried to console me.

"Easy for you to say you're hair always looks beautiful!" I said without really thinking. I guess this is what the fans mean when they say I love Laura.

I looked over to her and noticed she blushed in reply. Seeing her blush is probably the best next thing to seeing her smile. Wonder why she's blushing? There's no way she likes me. I guess that's just what girls do when a guy compliments them.
Except I wasn't really complimenting her I wa-

"Ross!" said Veronica my hair dresser.
"Yeah Ron?" I guess I zoned out while thinking. Aaand now my hair is Austin-fied. Great.
" I said you can head to wardrobe now."
"Oh right" I said, embarrassed. Now it was my turn to blush.

I looked over to see Laura with her headphones in and her eyes closed as her hair dresser curled her soft, brown and caramel hair. She looked so relaxed and at peace, she even had a slight smile on her face.

I turned around to walk out of the room to see Raini standing in the doorway with a smile on her face and her hands on her hips.

"Who you staring at Ross?" she said slyly
"What are you talking about I'm just heading over to wardrobe" I replied matter-of-factly.
"Mhmm, come with me, we need to talk." Raini said walking away

Knowing Raini, it was best to just follow her, cause one way or another, she'd find a way to talk to me so might as well get it over with now.

I followed her to her brightly colored dressing room which was right across from mine.

She sat down, and I stood there, to be honest, pretty confused.

"Have a seat."
