At Sonic Boom, where the well known Team Austin hang out almost every day. Austin is behind the counter, trying to deal with the customers without any help while Dez is being…well Dez. It seems that Austin is having a hard time trying to cooperate with all the customers.

"I'll be right with you- lady I don't know where your dog is- just give me a minute!" Austin started pressing random buttons on the cash register, resulting in it opening and banging into his stomach. He winced in pain.

"DEZ CAN YOU PLEASE HELP ME OUT?" he yells over the crowd of customers, separating him from his best friend.

"Just a minute, I'm still trying to put these bagpipes into this French horn" he said, holding one in each hand, pondering which end he should start with. Austin groaned in frustration and went back to "helping" the complaining customers.

"I'm sorry- um hold on a sec"

"Excuse me" a faint voice says, coming from behind the crowd.

"One minute! Um-"

"Excuse me" the voice was slightly louder, and closer, but it was still ignored.

"For the last time, I DON'T KNOW WHERE YOUR DOG IS!"

"EXCUSE ME!"

"WHAT?" Austin yelled, but his expression immediately softened when he saw beautiful, yet strangely familiar, hazel eyes staring back at him. Completely forgetting about the other customers, he took a step back to take her in. She was a relatively tall brunette, but not as tall as Austin, her hair tied in low pigtails with pink ribbon. She was wearing a lose fitting blue hoodie that was half zipped, showing her pink tank top underneath. She had on dark blue skinny jeans and pink Toms (Do not own). Her hands were on her hips, giving off an annoyed vibe, which she definitely was, and she had one eyebrow raised.

"Oh I'm sorry" he said looking down. "That was kinda loud wasn't it?"

"No, only people in China could hear it" she said sarcastically. "I've been waiting her for twenty minutes and this mess of a line hasn't moved. Do you need help?" the unnamed girl gestured to the angry customers surrounding them.

"Nah, it's nothing I can't handle" Austin said, trying to play it cool. "Yeah I can see how well you're taking care of it" she said, obviously not convinced.

"I don't think you could handle-" in a millisecond she was already standing on top of the counter. "Excuse me, can I have everybody's attention?" she asked in a sweet, yet strong and direct voice. "I would greatly appreciate it if you please formed into two lines; to my right if you need assistance, and to my left by the register if you are ready to buy. Thank you." Everyone moved to their designated lines. "Here's your change sir…the tubas or over by the back wall…no sir this isn't the foot doctor" the man, who happened to put his disgusting looking foot on the table, sighed and walked away from the girl who now had a disturbed and disgusted look on her face, but she shook it off and went back to attending the customers. Austin was staring in awe. When she spoke to the customers, she used such a sweet and angelic voice, nothing like the sarcastic tone she use when talking to him earlier. He wished he could hear more of that. Not only was he thinking about that, but he kept getting that nagging feeling that he knew her from somewhere before.

"Hey Dez" Austin started as he walked over to his best friend, who was surprisingly *sarcasm* still trying to combine the bagpipes and French horn "does she look familiar to you?" he asked, gesturing towards the mystery girl behind the counter. "Hm…" Dez put his hand, which happened to get stuck in the French horn, to his head and rubbed it up and down "a little bit."

"I can't put my finger on it. Where have I seen this girl before?" Austin was racking his brain for the answer. It was really getting to him.

"That's weird, you never forget a face Austin" Dez stated then went back to his problem. His words seemed to trigger something in Austin's brain, but he dismissed it and decided to go back to the counter since all the customers were gone.

"You're really good at this. Thanks a ton, you saved my butt" Austin said, sitting on the counter and facing her. She smiled and wait-is that a hint of blush? No, of course not, all this thinking must be messing with his brain.

"No prob, Austin" she said. 'Wait did she call me by my name?' Austin thought to himself.

"Wait, how do you know my name?" Austin asked, obviously very confused.

"Your Austin Moon right?" she asked, he nodded. "You have become very famous I see. Your music is great. Plus I remember you from elementary school" she stated, moving from behind the counter. Something clicked and Austin's head as he had a sudden epiphany.

"I remember now! We had chorus and band together! We performed a duet together in the fourth grade, me singing and you playing your violin-" he was cut off by her "and you promised not to forget about me when you found out I was moving to California. I'm surprised you figured it out"

"Hey, like I said before, I never forget a face" he leaned back, in an attempt to look cool, which ended up with him falling off the counter. Violet let out a girlish giggle. He quickly jumped up and brushed himself off, blushing from that embarrassing moment. "So, do you still play the violin?" he asked.

"Oh that reminds me! I came here to get my violin tuned. I already tuned it myself but my dad thinks I'm and idiot so he sent me over here so they can tune it 'the right way!' Do you think you're capable of doing that?" her question was said in a very sarcastic tone. "Of course!" he said as she took out her violin from her case on the floor. She handed it to him and watched closely as he checked each string.

"It sounds perfectly in tune. Why does your father doubt that you can tune your own violin?" Austin asked her, a bit confused. She's always been very skilled. Why would anyone doubt her?

"Like I said before, my dad thinks I'm stupid, He doubts everything I do" she said, obviously frustrated at the thought of being called stupid, especially by her own father.

"Sounds a little like my dad, but I'm sorry to hear about that." He could see how tense she had become at the mention of her father so he decided to change the subject. "So um, I know this probably makes me sound stupid, but I forgot your name" he said, rubbing the back of his head with his hand. How could he possibly forget his childhood crush's name? He mentally slapped himself. She let out a little giggle at the sight of how embarrassed he had gotten over something so silly.

"Don't worry about it too much. Does Violet Garcia ring a bell?" she asked with a slight smirk playing on her face. 'Looks like I have the upper hand' she thought to herself.

"Yes, yes it does" Austin said, relieved that he didn't have to call Violet "she" or "her" or "that girl" anymore. A moment went by before Violet asked "so, do you work here or are you just a helper monkey who occasionally knows what he's doing?" 'Looks like the sarcasm is back' Austin thought to himself. 'But I think it's kinda cute-WAIT! I didn't just say that! Erase that from my thoughts!' While having a mind battle with himself he completely forgot about the girl next to him, who is now staring with a confused expression on her face. He coughed a little, trying to regain his composure, at which Violet let out a small giggle. 'Her giggle is so cute-SNAP OUT OF IT!'

"I don't work here (and I'm no 'helper monkey'), my partner Ally does. Her stupid book club meeting ran longer than expected so I have to watch the store until she gets back."

Trish suddenly walks in with a slice of cheesecake on the top of her headband. "Guess who got a job at the-" she stops when she sees Dez with his right hand in a French horn and a stick of butter in his left. "What is Dez doing?" Trish asks, but regrets it later when Austin replies "he was trying to put bagpipes in a French horn but I guess he got his hand stuck."

"That would explain the butter. I'm not even going to ask why he even wanted to do that." Then Ally came through the doors of Sonic Boom, carrying a huge stack of books, more like dictionaries, with her. Her hair was very messy, as if she had just woken up, and she had dark circles under her eyes.

"ALLY!" everyone, except Violet, yelled simultaneously.
