Jealousy & Jellybeans Chapter 2
Okay, sorry I haven't updated in a while…I have had problems logging in. Anyway, enjoy!
Ally's POV
"Hey, have you guys seen Austin? I haven't seen him since last week." I asked Trish and Dez the next week at school.
"He's somewhere in this world." Dez replied, putting a label on a jar of jellybeans.
"Thanks." I said sarcastically. "What are you doing?"
"I'm putting a label on a jar of jellybeans." Dez said.
"Why?" Trish asked.
"Because I'm gonna sell it. Ally, these jellybeans are 13 years old!" Dez said. Trish rolled her eyes and smacked her head.
"Dez, if those are 13 years old, wouldn't they be all brown and moldy, with flies and gnats flying around?" I asked. Dez shook his head.
"No." Dez said. Trish rolled her eyes again. She changed the subject.
"Hey, Ally, I know why Austin hasn't been seen for a week." Trish said.
"You do? How come?" I asked a little too eagerly.
"He's upset." Trish said.
"About what?" I asked.
"You." Trish said. I put my hand on my hip.
"Was it because I ate his pancake last week when we had breakfast?" I asked. Trish and Dez gave me confused looks.
"No…" Trish said quietly. I sighed.
That was funny. I went to Austin's house last Thursday and I guess I fell asleep in his bed, and Mrs. Moon made pancakes, and we were eating them, and I was really hungry, so I took Austin's pancake off of his plate, forgetting that he LOVES pancakes…I mean LOVES them…
~FLASHBACK~
"Ally!" Austin says.
"What?" I ask him, my mouth full of his pancake.
"You ate my pancake!" He says.
"You want it back?" I ask him. He nods.
"Yeah, I kinda do!" He exclaims.
"It goes down…" I say. Austin shakes his head.
"You can have it." He says. I can see the anger in his eyes. I smile.
~END OF FLASHBACK~
"Earth to Ally. Earth to Ally!" I heard Trish yell. I jumped.
"Huh? What?" I asked quickly.
"I was gonna say that Austin's upset because you're dating Dallas!" Trish said. I raised an eyebrow.
"Why would he be upset about that?" I asked.
"Because he's jealous! Jealous that you're dating Dallas and not him!" Trish said. Dez nodded in agreement.
"That's pathetic, Trish." I retorted.
"Come on, Ally! It's totally obvious!" Trish said. I shook my head.
"Yeah, Ally. Have you seen the way he looks at you?" Dez asked.
"Yeah. He looks at me like I'm pretty…no I haven't seen the way he looks at me!" I snapped. Trish and Dez laughed, and Dez saw Kayla Moore walking past us. Dez ran over to her.
"Hi, I'm Dez. How would you like to buy a jar of 13 year old jellybeans?" Dez asked Kayla. She gave him a long look and knocked the jar out of his hand.
"Why the heck would anyone buy something that retarded?" Kayla asked, then walked away.
"It's only $5.99!" Dez shouted at her.
"Go suck a brick, Dez!" Kayla shouted back. Trish and I laughed. Dez groaned.
"I'm gonna go see if more people wanna buy this." Dez said, picked up the jar, and left. I turned to Trish and crossed my arms.
"Why would you think Austin's jealous of Dallas?" I asked Trish.
"Well…think of it…as soon as you said Dallas kissed you 3 times on the lips and that you two had begun dating…Austin looked really upset…and then he walked out the Sonic Boom and you haven't seen him since." Trish said, as if it were obvious.
"Clearly you haven't seen the girls he goes for." I said. Trish rolled her eyes.
"What's that supposed to mean?" Trish asked.
"It means that he's always around the most popular girls in school. And…he's dating Cassidy…the most popular girl in school. It's like she runs the school." I said.
"I see…but I still think he has a crush on you." Trish said. I hated that she and Dez BOTH thought that Austin wanted to be my boyfriend instead of Dallas.
"Don't say that! And if it were obvious, how come you and Dez are the only ones who think that?" I asked.
"We're not the only ones who think that!" Trish said. She looked around the hallway and grabbed a girl I had seen before, but never knew her name or anything.
"Hey Avery." Trish said. Okay…
"Hey Trish. What's up?" Avery asked.
"Fill in the blank. Austin Moon is in love with blank." Trish said.
"Ally?" Avery said without hesitating. My eyes got wide.
"Thanks for playing." Trish said and let go of her hand. Avery walked away.
"You told her to say that!" I screamed. Trish sort of pushed me to the ground.
"Shh…people are watching!" Trish said. But I ignored her. I saw watching Austin go to his locker after hanging with…Cassidy.
"There's Austin!" I said, and walked over to him. "Hey Austin." Austin glanced at me, then continued to rearrange his locker. I tapped on him saying "Austin" until he told me to be quiet.
"Oh…so now that we're back in school…you only wanna hang with the cool kids. Well, I will let you know, that I am very cool." I said, and started dancing. I could tell Austin was trying not to laugh.
"No…it's just that I thought you would be with Dallas, your boyfriend." Austin scoffed. I didn't know what to say, so I ignored him.
"What happened to you last week? You just…disappeared on us."
"I was sick." Austin said a little too quickly.
"What happened?" I asked. Austin looked at me with a weird expression on his face.
"I had…uh…tuberculosis." Austin said. Liar!
"Austin…" I said.
"What?" He asked.
"Do you even know what tuberculosis is?" I asked him.
"Course I do…I had it." Austin said.
"Tuberculosis is an infectious disease." I said, rolling my eyes. Austin's face was suddenly as red as his shirt.
"I knew that." Austin said. I laughed. He didn't.
"Austin, what's wrong?" I asked him. He shook his head.
Austin's POV
Crap! I couldn't believe I told Ally I had an infectious disease! That was SO stupid! And I was not telling her I laid down in bed crying my eyes out like a 2 year old girl all week. Not even a pancake made me feel better. Yeah, that'show sad I was.
"Nothing." I said, not looking at her.
"C'mon, tell me!" Ally whined. She grabbed my arm and pulled it in the middle of the hallway. Well, tried to pull it. I knew I was being stubborn, but I didn't know what to say.
"Stop it! You're gonna tear my arm off!" I said.
"Tell me what's going on!" Ally screamed, STILL pulling me. People started looking at us.
"Ally, people are staring!" I whisper-shouted.
"Tell me!" Ally said, ignoring me.
"No!"
"Yes!"
"No!" I yelled.
"Yes!"
"Let go!" I shouted. Ally ignored me. "Alright, I'll tell you!" Ally let go of me and smiled.
"Okay!" Ally said in a girly tone. I gotta think fast! How about I was in a coma? Nah, that's pitiful. How about I was kidnapped by an evil mermaid? That's a great idea! No it's not you retard!
"I was with Cassidy." I said.
"And why did you act like it was all personal?" Ally said, smacking my arm.
"I don't know." I said. Ally looked at me with her beautiful brown eyes.
"Oh! Before I forget…I gotta tell you something Trish said." Ally said.
"What was that?" I asked.
"This was pathetic…she said that you were jealous of me dating Dallas!" Ally said, and began to laugh. I didn't say anything. It really hurt me when she said it was pathetic. That's what you get for falling in love with her. Shut up and don't talk to me! How can you not talk to yourself? I don't know…no…thisis pathetic.
"Yep…really pathetic." I forced a laugh. On the inside it felt like she tore my stomach out and shoved it into my—
"Right." Ally said. "I mean, why would she say that?"
"Don't know." I said.
"Ooh! There's Dallas!" Ally shrieked and ran toward him. I wanted to cry so badly. I slammed my locker shut, then I turned the combination on it, then opened it, then slammed it. I did that 5 times, and gave my locker a good, hard kick. My locker had a dent in it.
"OW!" I said. "Stupid locker! I hate you! You deserve to die! You stole Ally from me!" Am I seriously blaming my locker for this? Yes stupid. And am I yelling at my locker instead of Dallas? Yes stupid. Stop calling myself stupid! Stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid!
"Arrghhhh!" I yelled. I saw people stare at me and begin whispering. I ignored them. I just cried. Yeah, a 15 year old Internet sensation began to cry at school in front of a bunch of people. No,that'spathetic.You'repathetic.
"Austin, what the heck?" I heard Cassidy ask.
"My locker." I sobbed. She turned around and saw it.
"What did you do?" Cassidy asked.
"I got mad." I sniffed.
"Did you say something about Ally Dawson to your locker?" Cassidy asked.
"Why are you asking so much questions?"
"Cause I'm curious!" Cassidy said. I stopped crying. I know what I must do. It may be risky but itmaymake me feel better. And Imayprove to Ally that what Trish told her is NOT pathetic; that Dallas is. First, I must do this:
"Cassidy?" I asked.
"Austin?" she asked.
"This isn't working out." I said.
"Course it isn't! Look at it!" Cassidy said, thinking I meant the locker.
"Not the locker…us!" I said. Cassidy looked at me.
"Us?" Cassidy asked quietly. I nodded.
"Yeah…"
"So…you wanna…break up with me?" Cassidy asked.
"Yeah…" I said. Cassidy looked like she wanted to throw me off of a cliff. I wanted to throw Dallas off of a cliff.
"Really?" Cassidy asked.
"Really." I answered.
"Fine! I don't care! I never even liked you anyway!" Cassidy screamed, and then stormed off. I didn't even feel sorry for her.
Ally's POV
"…and then he said it was pathetic, too!" I said. I had just finished telling Dallas about Trish's pathetic statement. But Dallas didn't laugh like I had. He frowned.
"I think Austin was lying." Dallas said.
"What?" I asked. "Austin would never lie to me about something like that!"
"I think he would." Dallas sort of snapped. I gasped.
"Dallas!" I said.
"It's true! That's what I think!" Dallas said.
"What? No!" I yelled. Dallas actually thought that Austin was jealous!
"Yes!" Dallas yelled back. "I keep thinking he wants to make you fall in love with him so he can steal you away from me."
"Stop saying that!" I put my hands over my ears. Dallas pulled my arms away.
"And I also think you feel the same way." Dallas said. I wanted to scream really loud and hit something hard. It was so weird that suddenly Dallas thinks it, too!
"Dallas, I don't!" I yelled, holding back tears. Why was he doing this to me?
"Ally…" Dallas said. DON'T SAY IT! DON'T SAY IT… "We may need to break up." MAN HE SAID IT!
"Dallas…I don'thave any romantic feelings for Austin! You should believe me!" I screamed.
"Goodbye Ally." Dallas said, and walked away. I fell to the floor, letting the tears flow.
Austin's POV
It felt pretty good that I dumped Cassidy, but I still didn't feel better. I still wanted Ally. I wanted to do something horrible to Dallas. But if you do that,you'll make Ally hate you. Will you stay out of my life? Iamyour life. GAHHHHH!
Just then, the principal walked by. Slowly he looked at my locker.
"My office…" The principal said, and I reluctantly followed him. "You are gonna pay for that."
~AFTER FIRST PERIOD~
After I missed first period for making that dent in my locker, and after the principal yelled at me for "vandalizing school property", I went to my dented locker to get my things. Just then, Ally walked by me, along with Trish and Dez.
"Whoa!" Trish and Dez said at the exact same time.
"Long story…" I mumbled. Then I turned to Ally. Her eyes were red and swollen. "What happened?"
"Dallas broke up with me." Ally said. HALLELUJAH! WOO HOO! YAYA! AWOOOO! THIS IS SO GREAT! I HAVE A CHANCE WITH THE LOVELY AND TALENTED ALLY DAWSON! I wanted to dance on top of the lockers and scream at the top of my lungs. Ally dropped her jaw.
"Austin!" Ally shouted. "You were smiling!"
"I was?" I asked dumbly. Course you were, idiot!
"Yes! You wanted Dallas to break up with me, didn't you?" Ally asked. Yes.
"No…it's not that…" I started, but Ally cut me off.
"Then what is it?" Ally asked. Trish covered her mouth. Dez was chasing a kid down the hall raising a jar of jellybeans. I think it was the one that was 13 years old.
"It has nothing to do with you or Dallas." I said. Ally could see right through me.
"Austin! You're lying to me!" She shouted. I could see the tears forming in her eyes. This crap she's saying just came out of nowhere!
"No I'm not, Ally!" I said.
"Yes you are!" Ally said. Trish ran away. The two of us just watched her leave.
"Ally…"
"Did you even want to be my friend?" Ally asked. No! I wanted to bemore than friends! "Were you just pretending to be my friend just so you can get even more famous? Do you even like me? Were you using me?"
"No!" I said. This is such a random argument! Where the heck did it come from?
"Or is it that you just didn't want me hanging with Dallas?" Ally said.
"That could not be more true." I admitted.
"How come?" Ally asked, sounding a little bit nicer.
"Because I love you…your songs! You and your songs! It's just that…I miss you. I really want to write more songs with you. And I'm starting to have some ideas." I said.
"Then prove it." Ally said, and walked away. I didn't understand what the heck was going on, and of course I was gonna find out. But first, I had to talk to Trish, since she was the one who started this chiz*. And I also needed to talk to her about those jellybeans.
Okay, so I didn't realize this chapter was gonna be so freaking long. I hope you didn't get bored of this. R&R, please!
*I like the word chiz. In case you've never heard of it, chiz is used frequently on iCarly and Victorious. I really like the word. I mean seriously…
