Chapter 1
Ally's POV: The sound of my alarm clock woke me up. I groaned and rolled over, opening my sleep-induced eyes. I yawned and got up. I took a shower to wake me up. It hardly did anything. I get out and get dressed in black jeans, a white, loose, one-shouldered t shirt that said love in black hand writing on it, and black two-inch high-heeled black boots. I took a deep breath to help me wake up, and then went over to the bathroom to fix my hair and makeup. I blow-dried my brown-blonde highlighted hair, and then curled it, letting it fall just above my hips. I haven't cut my hair in a while and I was starting to get split ends, which annoyed the hell out of me. Next, came my makeup. I applied foundation, then powder, blush came next, and then I applied two different shades of eye shadow, one light one dark, then came eyeliner and finally mascara. I applied a small amount of clear lips gloss and then applied a dark, cherry-red lipstick that brought out my cheekbones and made my eyes bigger. I smiled to myself. I looked good! I grabbed the keys to my bike and went downstairs. I grabbed my bag, an energy shake and a pack of tic-tacks then hopped on my motorcycle and drove to Miami High, or as I liked to call, hell. I parked my bike in the parking lot closest to the football fields. The sound of a kid crying made me whip my head to the football players. They were throwing some kid around, as if he weighed nothing. I walked over swiftly, a look of sheer anger crossing my features. "Hey assholes!" I yelled. They turned their heads. One whistled and I just rolled my eyes and smirked evilly at the quarterback, Austin Monica Moon. "Put the kid down Monica." I said. His face hardened in anger and I just stood there smiling. "Fine." He said his voice toxic. He let the kid go and I could hear the SLAM! of him hitting the ground. In a matter of seconds he was coughing up blood. I clenched my jaw and walked over to the kid. I pulled out a napkin and handed it to him. "Here you go sweetie. I'm Ally what's your name?" I asked He wiped his mouth and then said softly; "I'm Jamie." He said. "Hi Jamie. Welcome to Miami High. Stay away from these boys and they won't give you any trouble. If they do just come to me." I said helping him up. He nodded, brushed himself off, and then walked to his class. I turned to Austin. "Listen you bastard. What makes you think you can go around doing shit like that to kids that small?" I asked. He smiled angrily at me. "I can do whatever I want." He sneered. I just rolled my eyes and walked up to him so that his brown eyes met mine. ""You think you're a big shot don't, you prick?" I asked sheer venom in my voice. "I know I'm a big shot. And who the hell do you think you are? Walking around like you don't give a shit about anybody else?" he asked. I bit the inside of my cheek to keep from yelling at him. Controlling my anger around him was insanely hard. "Fuck off." I said through clenched teeth. "What if I don't? What're you gonna do Dawson?" he asked laughing. I just smiled and brought my knee up to contact with what was between his legs. I watched his eyes bulge then, as he fell on his knees screaming in pain. "That's what." I said and walked away, going to my next class.
Austin's POV: jI took a deep breath and stood up; shaking off the pain that Dawson just gave me. That bitch! Walking around like she doesn't give a shit about anybody else! I hate her. I collect my gear and walk back to my class pissed off. I was changing in the boys washroom when I hear bang and suddenly I hear a girl say: "No Dallas! I don't want to!" it was Dawson. I put my jeans on and came out of the stall. Dallas had Ally pressed against the wall and had her shirt half way up her body. I could've walked away, left him to do what he wanted with her, for payback. But instead, I was an idiot and helped her. I grabbed Dallas' neck and turned him around to face me. His eyes widened as my fist made contact with his face. "She said no!" I yelled at him. He was in the fetal position on the ground holding his face. I turned to Ally and saw her eyes widen. "What?" I said angrily. She stood up from the wall, fixed her shirt and then walked out, not even thanking me. I clenched my teeth. U knew I shouldn't have saved her ass! Dallas should've done whatever he wanted with her. I turned around and got my top and bag out of the stall I was in and then left. On my way out, I found a note on the floor. Dawson must`ve dropped it. I picked it up.
Thanks Moon. Looks like you`re not a hard-ass all the time.
Dawson.
I tucked the note in my back pocket then went off to biology. When I got there I sat in my assigned seat, and waited for the teacher to give us directions. "Today you have a project. I will assign you partners and then you get to know that partner and create and five page statement on what you've learned about your partner and hand it in to me in two weeks. He started listing off names.
"And finally, Ally Dawson and Austin Moon." We both looked up at the same time and said: "WHAT!" the science teacher just smiled and put down his papers. "That's that. No changing. No swaps. Nothing. Nada." He said. I let out a deep breath, got up and stormed out of the class angrily. I heard Dawson's footsteps following mine and I whipped around and she had to step back a bit because of how close we were. "Look. I don't like this either, but do you want to fail bio?" she asked sternly. "No. But I don't want to be your partner either." I said. She tilted her head to the side and raised her eyebrows. "Fair enough. But we both want the grades. Usually, I would ask you to shove the project up your ass, but this is the only subject I'm failing, so I can't." she said. "Ok fine." I said. "Promise me one thing?" she asked. "What?" I asked stupidly replying to her question. "Promise you won't fall in love with me." She said and then she winked and walked away, the sound of her black-leather, high-heeled boots echoing in my ear.
