Chapter 1:

"Austin I seriously don't see how anyone could choose pancakes over pickles. I mean there is no completion!" I exclaimed. Austin and I were in a pretty deep discussion about which of our favorite foods were better. When pickles of course was the winner. "Ally. For a smart girl you are saying ignorant things! Pancakes can be drenched with syrup! Pickles can't. So therefore pancakes are better!" he replied, slightly nudging me in the arm. I sighed before rolling my eyes. Although the blonde boy was hands down my best friend, he really knew how to get on my nerves. Something he did rather too frequently. "Fine Austin. For today pancakes are better! But when I get my energy back. It is so on!" We then erupted in laughter, which awarded us with some mean stares from some of the customers in sonic boom. Sonic boom was my dad's store that he bought 10 years ago. When I turned 15 he began to let me work part time, a year later I am still working part time, but I come in every now and then when one of the workers are sick or need a day off. I love working here, being surrounded by instruments and music. It's like paradise! Even though singing and playing the piano are the only "instruments" I play. I still enjoy spending the majority of my time in this music store. I have no idea why though. Most teenagers my age would die if they spent all there hours working at sonic boom. But then again I wasn't relatively like "most teenagers." "Ally... I'm bored. Let's go to my house and play some video games!" he then grabbed my shoulders and pulled me into a deep hug. I began to blush like an idiot to myself, I had hugged Austin many times before, but I really liked when he would kind of man handle me into a hug. It was kind of like my secret fetish. Ha ha, man handled hugs. (1) "oh Austy! I don't know. I was kind of thinking I would just hang in the practice room for a while. I'm not in the mood to see you pout because some kid is beating you at some stupid game." I said, putting an emphasis on the word "Austy." His old nickname is ex Cassidy gave him that he hated with a passion; I used it for my advantage when I wanted to annoy him. Austin released me from the hug, and gave me an over exaggerated frown. "Well that wasn't very nice! And I do not pout! My lips were numb, and I needed to get the feeling back!" I laughed, before pinching his nose. "Sure. Pinocchio. Sure." Austin rolled his eyes before sticking his tongue out and heading for the doors. "Bye. Austy! I love you!" I called mimicking Cassidy, in a voice that wasn't half bad. He turned around and puffed before walking out completely. I rolled my eyes before whispering softly to myself. "3-2-1.." And right on cue my IPhone vibrated in my back pocket. Oh, and what a surprise. It was from the master himself… Austin.
