Chapter 1
A/N this is my first story, so please be nice!
Disclaimer- I do not own any of the characters…..the writers of this show do
Enjoy! :)
A/N Hey guys! Sorry it's been a while (like 3 years), but I decided to return to the story to edit it. Over the next few days, I will edit each chapter then possibly add more chapters at the end. It's up to you if you want to reread the chapters, but I will most likely add more information and the chapters will be much longer. I hope you enjoy!
Ally POV.
Austin and I were sitting at the piano writing the chorus to his next song. As we sing, I glance over at him. He's gorgeous. As much as I like him, we've been friends for a long time now, and I don't want to ruin our friendship with a relationship that could possibly end badly. As this thought goes through my head, I realize that I've been staring at him instead of focusing on the song. When we finally played the ending notes of the song, we glance at each other, but we don't say a word. That is until Austin breaks the silence, "that was great Ally. I really lov- liked it…yeah I really liked it…" there was an awkward silence after that when I gave him a weird look. Why did he say that? Is there a chance that he might like me too? No, there's no use getting my hopes up. I realize that he was struggling to say something and look at him curiously and patiently while he decides what he wants to say. Finally, he opens his mouth, "so I was wondering if you wanted-", but I never got to hear the rest of his question because he was interrupted by Trish, my best friend, who walked in.
Austin and I both sprung apart, realizing that while he was talking, we had been leaning forward toward each other"Ally I need to talk to you, its really important!" she looked over at Austin, whose mouth was hanging open, "Hi Austin. Bye Austin!" she yelled as she pushed him out the door. When he almost over the threshold, she shut it.
"That was really rude Trish. He was in the middle of a sentence and you shouldn't shut doors on people." I started to lecture her because she always interrupts Austin and I when we're having moments.
Ignoring my chastising, she says, "that's great Ally, but I really have to show you this website!" she handing me her laptop, which I didn't see in her hands until then. I looked at the website that was on the screen. Immediately I grimace.
"A chat room? Really Trish? Really?" I thought we were better than this. The last time we went on a chat room was when we were in 6th grade, and I do not need to repeat that experience.
Flashback
"Ally why don't we both get chat room accounts! Everyone in our class has one. We can chat with each other when were at our own houses, then our parents will think were doing homework instead of being loud and talking on the phone." Trish said. She looks really exited. Maybe, I could try it. It would be a great way to get to know all the kids in my class and maybe once they get to know me, they might see that I'm not that much of a nerd.
"Okay Trish lets try it." I try to sound confident. Apparently it works, because she gets on the computer.
She logs onto the website, "okkkkkaaaayyyyyyy…", she clicks on the first box and looks over at me, saying, "what do you want your screen name to be?" I thought about it. If I chose something weird people wouldn't want to be friends with me but, if I chose something too obvious it ruins the fun of a screen name. I kept thinking. What do I like to do most? I got it!
"horseridinggangsta1" I say with a lot of confidence. I don't miss the look Trish gave me for the name I picked out. What? I like the name! My favorite thing to do is horse back ridding. It's my passion! I could never imagine me doing anything else! Once me and Trish got set up, we started looking for people we knew so we could friend them. I had seven friends including the most popular girl in our grade! I was soooo happy! We were talking for two hours. We shared secrets and everything.
Next time we saw each other was at school, she told every one all the secrets I told her. I was soooo humiliated! She even told them about my crush on Dallas, the cutest guy in our grade. I went home and took down my profile. I hadn't even been a whole week and it had all ready ruined my life. I still remember Dallas's face when he learned that I had a crush on him. He laughed. He laughed with everyone else, probably harder than them. It was mortifying!
End Flashback
"Ally? Ally? Ally! ALLY!" Trish was yelling in my face.
"Huh?" I replied smartly.
I was still thinking about my last experience on the website when Trish asks if i was ready to join. Well, Dallas had moved away in eighth grade. Cassidy, the popular girl, is still around but she forgot about me; I'm invisible to her. I'm more than okay with that. The website can't be that bad right? There's nothing to loose. Right?
"Okay" I said "I'll do it" Trish's face brightened, then darkened.
"You're not going to pick a lame screen name again right?" I looked at her. She was completely serious.
"No, I actually have something in mind" I say as I rub my hands together evilly. She looked at me with a weird look on her face. Curiosity? Suspicion? Scared? All three?
A/N as I said earlier this is my first fan fiction so if you have any ways to improve my story please tell me. You like it? Hate it? Tell me in the comments!
