A/N: Hey! I'm back with chapter two :) Hope you all liked the first chapter. And again, please excuse any grammatical or punctuation errors. I'm going to try to make the chapters longer, but I'm not making any promises anytime soon. Well, on with the story. Enjoy!

DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN AUSTIN AND ALLY

Austin's POV:

Quickly regaining my cool, I casually walk over to the desk and put my bag down. I sneak a glance over at the girl, and am somewhat disappointed to find her absorbed with whatever she's writing in a book.

Curiously, I turn my head a little more and watch her write. The way her hand scribbles furiously across the pages fascinates me. I look up at her face and study her features. I start at her perfect heart-shaped lips. They look so soft and plump. Kissable, even. Wait, why did I think that? I don't even know this girl and I'm already thinking about kissing her! I shake my head a bit to rid myself of the thought.

Moving my attention away from her mouth, I focus on her nose and cheekbones. She has an almost flawless bone structure. Her skin just looks so soft and pretty. I realize with a shock that she isn't wearing makeup, yet her skin is blemish free.

I look back to her eyes, so intently focused on her writing. She really does have beautiful brown eyes. I feel as though I'm mesmerized by her beauty.

Something changes in her expression, I notice. She purses her lips and her perfectly arched eyebrows start to scrunch together. Something seems to be bothering her. I wonder what it is. Maybe she's writing it down?

I ever so slyly tilt my chair to the side and peek at the pages, but I'm only able to make out a few words, so I tip my chair a little more and concentrate on the writing;

"...decided that I don't need anymore distractions. But right now, I'm a little freaked out because the new kid has been staring at me for about 5 minutes now.."

I stop reading abruptly. Looking over at her, I flinch when I realize that she's already watching me.

CRASH!

Apparently, I flinched so hard that I lost my balance on the legs of the chair and went tumbling to the floor.

"Ow.." I moan, sitting up and rubbing my backside. I then realize that most of the class is looking at me and laughing. Flushing bright red, I stand up and walk out of the room.

"Mr. Moon, you better -" is all I heard before closing the door and taking off. What is with me today? I'm completely off my game. I've humiliated myself in front of the whole class! And that girl.. "Oh god.." I groan as I realized that I had just completely blown my chance with her. I made myself look like a complete idiot. Why did I have to try and read her book? She probably thinks I'm insane and weird. She'll never want to speak to me now!

I make my way down the hallway and stop at an intersection. Where am I going? I don't know my way around this school yet. I'll probably get lost or something. Oh well, I think to myself. There's no way my day can get any worse than it already has.

Groaning, I turn around and try to back track my way to the classroom. After a few wrong turns, I find myself in front of the door. Taking a deep breath, I twist the doorknob and slowly make my way back to my seat. I don't dare look around, but I can feel everyone's eyes on me. Then, the teacher spoke up.

"Mr. Moon, I understand that what happened may be embarrassing," I can feel the blush stain my cheeks. "but that is not an excuse to leave my class. I trust that the next time you do something stupid, and yes I did say next time because I have a feeling that this is the first of many, you'll handle it correctly and maturely. Understood?"

I mumble a quick "yes sir," then look down at my desk. I can feel the brunettes gaze on me, and I resist the urge to squirm. Why am I so nervous around this girl? Sure, she's gorgeous, but I've been around other gorgeous girls before with no problems. Why her? Why is she different? She hasn't shown any real interest in me since I've walked through the door. But maybe that's what attracts me. The fact that she doesn't even care that I exist lures me in. I want to make her notice me. I want her to talk to me. Heck, I just want to know her name.

Then, the moment that I thought would never happen, happened. She looked me in the eyes and said something. I was too busy being shocked that she was even taking to me after all that happened that I didn't catch what she said.

I started at her stupidly. My mouth hanging open trying to find the right words to say. She eyed me warily as she waited for a response.

After floundering around for something to say, I said the most intelligent reply I could think of; "Uhh, what?" I mentally facepalmed. Really?! Out of everything I could have said, I say that? She's definitely going to think I'm mental or something.

Chuckling nervously, she repeated herself. "I asked if you were alright. You seem to be acting weird.. Or is that how you normally are?" She asked, eyebrow raising in amusement.

I flush an even brighter red before saying, "N-no, I'm not normally like that. I've just had a difficult morning. Why do you ask? Do you normally act like that? Cuz I think it's be pretty cool if you did. Unless you don't think it's cool, then it's not. Why am I still talking? I'm going to shut up now." Oh. My. God. I am such an idiot! If she wasn't freaked out by me before, she certainly is now.

She surprised me by giggling. She had a really cute giggle. "You know, you don't have to be so nervous around me. I know it's your first day, but you need to calm down. The people here are really nice for the most part. You've got nothing to worry about. But I do have one question." She says.

I nod at her. I still can't believe she's talking to me. "Thanks," I reply. "What's your question?"

Her amused expression hardens slightly as she asks, "Why did you read my book?"

I stop and think before replying, "I'm sorry, you just seemed frustrated about something, and I was curious as to what it was. I promise I won't do it again. I've already learned my lesson, and I have the bruises to prove it." I smile slightly near the end, earning a smile from her as well. "So, I didn't catch your name," I say as I started leaning my chair backwards, gaining some of my old confidence back.

She smirks suddenly, leaving me confused. "You never caught it because I haven't told you yet."

I blush again slightly. "Oops, my bad," I say. "Well, would you mind telling me? I'm Austin, by the way. Austin Moon." I offer her my hand.

She looks at my hand for a moment before giving me a breathtaking smile, grasping my hand and saying, "Ally. Ally Dawson."

A/N: Well, that's the end of chapter two! I tried to make it a little longer than the first, and I think I did. Hope you all enjoyed it! Sorry if it seems like it's going slow. It'll speed up soon :) Thanks for reading! Please review :D Xoxo
