Hey guys! It's me xXLGBTXx, formerly ausllyfan01! I am starting a brand new story called 43 ways. I am definetly having at least 43 chapters in this one! Anywhoodles, I need advice for two things:

1. Do you like my new name? I like it, but I feel like I should switch back because I'm soooooo used to my old name. Anyways, just tell me in a review.

2. Do you think I should continue writing my other story; The Summer That Changed It All? Because I'm not sure if I should...

TODAY IS ROSS LYNCH'S BIRTHDAY! AHHHHHHHHHHHHH! I talk to on facebook and he's pretty weird! He's super cute and he's my idol!

Okay, well. On to the story!

Ally's POV

Lyrics:

-You got my heart beat pumping to the beat of the drums

-Oh, what a shame that you came here with someone

-So while you're here in my arms

-Lets make the most of the night like we're gonna die young

Dear Diary,

I think I'm in love... Yup. You heard me. IN LOVE. I never thought I would be, but it's just the way his shaggy blonde hair flops. Or the sparkling flecks of gold in that gooey brown... I guess you can tell that I'm in love with my best friend. My partner in music. My Austin Moon. Yeah. I don't know how it happened, but I guess it just did. I haven't told anyone yet. Not even Trish! Yep. It's that bad. I'm going to tell her today, but I'm worried how she'll react. I just hope it's a good response. Well, I got to go.

Love,

Ally Dawson

I close my book and set it underneath the counter in my secret hiding place. I get the store ready for it to be open. About 5 minutes after 10, I flip the close sign open.

Business at the store has been slow now a days. A new smoothie place called Suck It, just opened up. And suddenly, the need for instruments has gone down. Well, the point is, business has been slow. I've been siting here for over half an hour, bored as hell. Everyone I know is probably at Suck It. About 7 minutes later, Austin and Dez walk in, smoothies in hand.

"Hey Ally!" They chorus. I smile. "Hey guys. What took you so long?" I ask sarcastically. "We were just at Suck It," Dez says obliviously, shaking his smoothie in my face. I pull my face away from the smoothie. "I see," I deadpan. "Anyways Ally. We need to start writing that new song," Austin says. I nod. "I have some lyrics I want you to check out." He starts jumping up and down like a little kid who was on a sugar high.

"Ooooo! Lemme see!" He says, reaching for my songbook. I snatch it away. "It's not ready yet!" I snap. He pouts, sadly. I sigh. "Sorry Austin. It's just, you know how I feel when people touch my book." He nods. "Yeah. I was just excited to hear the song." I smile genuinely. "Trust me. You'll be the first one to hear it when I'm ready." He beams.

"Anyways, have you guys seen Trish any where?" I ask nervously. They shake their heads. "Oh." "Why do you need Trish anyways?" Austin questions. My eyes widen. "I need to tell her I'm in love with you," I mumble. "What?" He asks confused. "Nothing." I say quickly. "Okay," He drags. "What do you guys want to do today?"

"We should go to the zoo. I need to get Mr. Miggins a Mrs. Miggins," Dez says. Mr. Miggins was Dez's llama. We raise our eyebrows at him. "Dez, you can't take animals from the zoo, or you'll go to jail." He shakes his head. "Uh nuh-uh. I took Mr. Miggins from the zoo, I didn't get arested." Our jaws drop to the floor. "Dez! You can't take animals from the zoo! That's stealing!" Austin shouts. I nod my head. "Yeah! Like when Austin stole my song." Austin frowns. "I didn't mean to steal it! It was an accident!" I glare at him. "You still took it."

"Guys! Focus! I need to hide him somewhere!" And with that, he bolts out of the store. There's an awkward silence. After a while, Austin interrupts it. "Ally, you know I didn't mean to steal your song right?" I look at him. He's look at me with his puppy dog eyes. I smile softly at him. "Yes Austin. If I didn't, then we probably wouldn't even be partners." He returns the smile, but it shortly fades away, replaced with another frown. "Then why did you bring those things back up?" I look away. "When I'm mad or frustrated, I say things I don't mean. I was just so frustrated with Dez, that it just came out. I wouldn't do anything to hurt you on purpose," I say reassuringly. He smiles. "Thanks Alls."

He pulls me into a hug. I'm enjoying this hug so much, but Trish decides to walk in on our little moment. "Hey guys!" We pull apart. "Hey Trish!" I say. "Guess who got a job at the melody diner?" Austin raises his eyebrows. "Mindy rehired you?" "No. Apparently, she got fired because she smacked this person with a menu, repeatedly, because they spilled water on her and she pushed them into a bike rack outside. Hearing that she was fired made my day," She says evily. I roll my eyes. Then, I remember that I need to tell her something.

"Trish, I need to talk to you," I say nervously. Austin doesn't get the hint to leave. "Alone." He rolls his eyes. "Fine. I'll leave. I'm gonna go find Dez." He walks out of the store, looking for the ginger. "Okay, so, what do you need to tell me?" I take a deep breath. "When I tell you, you have to promise not to freak out, and that you won't tell anyone," I deadpan. "I swear! Now tell me!" I take another deep breath. "I'm in love with Austin."

Silence.

More silence.

"AHHHH! Shut the hell up!" Trish screams. " You're in love with-" I clamp my hand over her. "MAHFIN!?" She, then, licks my hand. "Trish!" I hiss. I retract my hand from her mouth. She smile apologeticaly. "Sorry, but really? You're in love with him? I so called it! You have to ask him out! Wait, how long has this been going on?" I smile sheepishly. "About 3 monthes," I mumble. She glares at me "But, don't worry! You're the first person I've told." She smiles. "But, how come you didn't tell me sooner?"

"I wasn't absolutely sure if I was in love with him or not, but now I'm sure." We were quiet for a while, until Trish broke it. "So are you going to tell him you love him?" I shook my head quickly. "No! I don't even know if he likes me back!" She shoots me a look at me. "Ally, you'll never know if he likes you until you actually try."

She's right, I thought. You'll never know until you try.

"You know what Trish? You're right. I'm gonna go tell him I love him." Trish beams. "Good. Now lets tell a boy you love him." She is walking towards the door when I say, "After my shift is over."

Once my shift was done, Trish and I were walking through the food court when we saw the blonde and ginger we were looking for. We walk over to their table. "Hey guys!" I chirp. "Hey!" "So what's up?" I stall. Trish dug her elbow into side. "Ep! Austin, can I talk to you?" He nods. "Sure," He says. We walk over to an abandoned smoothie hut.

"So what did you want to talk about?" He asks. "Okay, but you have to promise me something." He looks at me. "Anything Alls."

"You have to promise that after I tell you, no matter what, we will still and always be best friends." He nods. "I promise." I take a long breath. "I'm in love with you." He froze.

No one's POV

Silence.

"Austin."

Silence.

"Please say something," She plead.

Silence.

"Austin!"

He looks at me. Then, he closes his eyes, takes a deep breath, reopens his eyes and says, "I'm sorry Alls, but I don't like you like that." Her eyes begin to water like crazy. Her breathing becomes short. "I was afraid you would say that." And she ran. She heard Trish and him call after her, but she didn't stop. She ran and ran and ran all the way home. She ran up to her room and fell on to her bed and cried all night long.

Okay. So, how was that? Bad? Good? Let me know! I love hearing responses from you guys! I might not update this story as much because my main focus is 'The Summer That Changed It All'. Oh and if you haven't read my other story, it does say that I am dislexic and ADHD. The spelling that is decent is because of spell check. And if you could ease back on me on the updating, thanks. I just want to tell you guys that.

Disclaimer: This will be my one and only disclaimer. I don't own Austin and Ally, but my street team is working on it. I don't own anything you reconize. The only things I own are the plot line and if I have any OC characters.

Anyways that's all!
