A/N This won't be too AU other than the fact that Austin & Ally have known each other since birth instead of meeting at Sonic Boom and Austin is an athlete. Also they might be a tad OOC but not completely.

Disclaimer: I don't own Austin & Ally :(((((


It's the day before summer ends and school officially begins and best friends Austin and Ally are hanging out at the beach. Let's give you a brief history about these two. Shall we?

Austin and Ally have been best friends and neighbors since birth. Literally Ally was born only a week after Austin. Their parents met in college and the rest is history. Austin and Ally have a special relationship. If you were to meet them at first you'd probably think they were dating or at least like each other but they don't. They're best friends and best friends only.

"Hey Austin. Ally." Greeted their other two best friends Trish and Dez while coming and sitting down beside them. Its funny Austin and Ally are never greeted separately always together.

"Hey guys." They replied in unison.

"What's up?" Trish asked.

"Just some songwriting" Ally said while raising her precious songbook. "Or attempting some songwriting. Austin won't pay attention."

"Hey!" said boy said in mock offence. "Let's go in the water Ally."

"Austin" she said dragging out his name "we have to finish this song for your next concert."

"Come on lets have some fun!" he exclaimed while standing up. "And if you don't get up in the next 3 seconds I'll make you get up."

"What-"she couldn't even finish her sentence before Austin had thrown her over his shoulder running towards the water. "Austin! Let me go!"

All you could hear was Austin laughing, Ally shrieking, and water splashing. As soon as they were deep enough that the water came up to Austin's waist he threw Ally in.

"They totally like each other." Trish stated while setting up her stuff for the beach beside Austin and Ally's.

"Yup." Dez agreed popping the 'p' "now if you'll excuse me I'm going to go in the water."

A few minutes later Ally walked back up to Trish and sat down dripping wet.

"Looks like you were having some fun out there." Trish commented.

"He's been doing that since we were like 10. It's so annoying!" Ally exclaimed.

"Really?" Trish asked while raising her eyebrow "Because it looked like you enjoyed all that skin-on-skin contact."

"Not again." Ally groaned. She knew where this was going. They have this discussion all the time it usually goes like, you like him, no I don't, yes you do, and so on.

"You can't say there's no feelings at all there and you know it Ally." The curly haired brunette stated matter of factly.

"Trish you know I like Dallas."

"Doesn't mean you can't have feelings for Austin." She pointed out. "Best friends of the opposite sex almost always have feelings deep down for each other. It's where all the sexual tension comes from. And yours and Austin's sexual tension is so thick you could cut it with a knife."

"It's the last day of summer. Let me relax." Ally said ignoring Trish on purpose.

"No you can't relax until you say you have are attracted to Austin."

"Okay I'll admit I have a very, very, very good looking best friend." She sighed "But we've talked about us being in a relationship before actually just for the fun of it. And we both decided against it in fear of ruining our friendship. But like I said there's no feelings right now."

"You said right now." Trish pointed out.

"I used to have a tiny crush on Austin in middle school okay." She admitted. "Happy?"

"Very."


Meanwhile with the guys they were having the same conversation while throwing football.

"So Austin," Dez began "when you telling Ally you like her?"

Austin was so shocked by the question the football almost hit him in the face, but he caught it just in time.

"I don't like Ally." He stated simply.

"But at least admit one thing. K?" Austin nodded. "She's pretty hot isn't she?"

That got Dez a football to the gut.

"Dez, Ally is beautiful. Not hot. Got it?" Austin stated sharply.

"Yup. Beautiful not hot." Dez said while groaning.

"Sorry Dez." Austin started "It's just Ally's my best friend, so it's like my role to protect her since she doesn't have a brother. Ya know?"

"Yeah I understand. But you got a little too defensive there. Are you sure there's no feelings?" his red headed best friend questioned.

"I had a crush on her back in middle school but I'm pretty sure I'm over it now." Austin said while catching the football and spinning it in his hands "She likes Dallas anyways."

"Aha!" Dez exclaimed.

"'Aha' what?"

"You sounded disappointed when you said she likes Dallas." He pointed out "You have feelings for Ally."

"I don't. Maybe I do. I don't know." His hands were pulling at his hair in frustration at this point. "We talked about if we were to date jokingly during sophomore year last year. We decided against it in fear of losing our friendship. We didn't even like each other."

"I think there might be some feelings there deep down. Dez stated.

"How do you know about all these 'feelings' exactly Dez?" the blonde questioned.

"Because I'm the love whisperer." He said whispering the last part.

"No you're not." Austin said mimicking his motions.

"You wanna get some ice cream?" Dez asked.

"Yeah let's go see if the girls want any okay?" Dez nodded and they walked over to the girls.

While walking over towards the girls they noticed they were lying on their stomachs tanning. Austin got an idea. He walked over to Ally and crouched right beside her and started rubbing her back. As expected Ally shrieked. Austin just continued to rub her back calming her down, while she lifted her head to see who it was.

"Oh it's you Austin." She said relieved as she laid her head back down. She wasn't even fazed by the fact that he was rubbing her back and she was wearing nothing but a bikini. It's normal for them.

"Hey Ally," he started "Dez and I are going to get some ice cream, you want some fruity mint swirl?"

"Yes, please."

"Trish you want anything?" Austin questioned while standing up, and chuckling at Ally's whine in protest of him stopping the massage.

"No I'm good."

"Alright we'll be back. And Ally-gator I'll finish that massage later." He gave her a flirty wink then walked off with Dez trailing behind.

"Are you sure you guys aren't maybe something more than friends?" Trish questioned as soon as the boys were out of earshot.

"I'm sure Trish." Ally said exasperated. "We have a flirty, very close friendship, and we're way too comfortable with each other. It's been that way since birth."

Just then the boys came back with the ice cream. Austin handed it to Ally while making her stand up.

"Why do I need to stand up?" She asked.

Austin didn't answer but just sat where she had been laying down spreading his legs apart so she could sit between them.

"Never mind" she muttered sitting in between his legs and leaning back against his chest.

"So who's ready for school to start tomorrow?" Trish questioned making everybody but Ally groan.
