"You did WHAT now?!" I shrieked, my voice piercing through the entire living room. I was raging with fury – scratch that, I was seething with rage.
The curly-haired Latina standing in front of me shrugged. "I thought it would be a good chance for you to finally get to meet him!" she said defensively as she crossed her arms.
Let me fill you in on everything just in case you're confused. Basically, Trish de la Rosa, my wackledoodle of a best friend, decided to sign me up for this reality show called 'Celebri-Dates'. In my opinion, the show was just a stupid gimmick by the cable network to attract teenagers with raging hormones for extra dough because their other shows were achieving abysmal ratings. I mean, have you seen their "hit" television series 'Mackenzie Falls'? That show is ridiculously dramatic (though its lead actor is ridiculously hot).
'Celebri-Dates' basically picks one "lucky" fan to date their celebrity crush for a month. After the month, they would go on the show for one hour to talk about how amazing their relationship was, how hot their celeb boyfriend/girlfriend was, how envious all their stupid friends were and so on.
And Trish happened to sign me up for this thing because she saw that my favorite singer, Austin Moon, was on the list of 'available' singers on the website. He's talented and all, but I love him for his music. I'm pretty sure he's a different person off-camera than he portrays himself to be in all those interviews.
Imagine – me, Ally Dawson, on a reality TV show? I'd much rather lick the sole of my shoe.
I sighed. "Whatever. I'm pretty sure I won't be picked anyway since he has a plethora of fans who have probably also applied to date him," I said.
"Uh, Ally?" Trish asked feebly. Uh oh, I wasn't getting a good vibe from her tone…
"What?"
"You were chosen."
Author's Note:
I'm back with a brand new multi-chapter story! Woohoo!
I got this idea from the Forty Days of Dating thing that has recently gone viral.
I hope you guys will enjoy this story — it's going to be romance/humor as usual. This story is somewhat similar to one of my older stories 'Teen Idol', where Austin is a star and Ally is a normal girl. I personally don't believe in falling in love with someone you've only known for a few months but reading stories like these just make you want to go, "Aww, that's so sweet!", doesn't it?
This chapter is ridiculously short (321 words) but then again, it's just a short little prologue/introduction to what the story's going to be all about. I promise that the rest of the chapters will be at least thrice the length of this one.
Let me know what you think — suggestions, criticism and compliments are welcome as usual. Looking forward to hearing from you all and I can't wait to share 'Date Your Celebrity Crush' with everyone!
