I was sitting in math class when I heard someone plop down beside me, I turned to look and saw Dallas Harris.

Dallas was cute don't get me wrong but he was no Austin. He's the captain of the football team. I mean Dallas is probably perfect for me on paper but Austin...

"Hello pretty lady" He said leaning too close to me for my liking.

"Hey Dallas, how are you?" I said unsurley

"Better now after seeing you" He winked

Ok now I was uncomfortable.

He kept pulling his chair closer to mine and I kept pulling mine away until I was nearly gone from the table.

Then I saw Austin walk in and he smiled at me, walking up to me, halting when he saw Dallas.

"You're in my seat" he sneered

"I don't see your name on it dipshit" Dallas sneered back.

"That is my seat everyday. So either get up or I'll remove you from it myself"

God he was hot when he was mad.

Ally! Focus!

Dallas looked between us and slowly got out of the chair.

"Call me" he grinned at me, I just gave him a half smile. As he walked away he shouldered Austin when getting past him. Austin's nose flared and I put my hand on his and just looked at him. I then felt him relax under my touch.

"So I can't leave you for a few hours but other guys are hitting on you?" He laughed

"I can't help that I'm adorable" I grinned putting my hands under my chin.

"That you are" he smirked as he placed a hand on my thigh. My breath hitched as I looked him in the eyes. "Sorry skirt" He said looking down pulling his hand away from my thigh. I smiled at how much he cared about how comfortable I am.

I leaned over and whispered in his ear,

"I think you're pretty cute too"

I leaned back into my seat and stared forward at the teacher begin the lesson and I could feel two eyes burning a hole in my skull.

Smirking to myself, I got him.

XXXXXXXXX

As I walked to walked to my locker after the last class I sighed in relief. Today had been a loooooong day.

I started pulling books out of my locker when someone covered my eyes with their hands, I smirked to myself instantly knowing who it was.

"Guess who?" The person whispered in my ear.

"George Clooney?" I pretended to be shocked.

"Ok that was just mean"

I turned around and saw that beautiful, blonde mess standing in front of me. "What's up skirt?" He nodded me up and winked.

"Nothing much jackass" I responded smirking as I turned around to my locker.

"Ouch" he dramatically put his hand to his chest.

I laughed at his childish ways. "So are you coming to the game tomorrow?" I said making general conversation.

"Football games, skirt? Do you know me at all?"

"You're right, that was stupid" I looked down, chuckling.

"I'll go if you want me to" he said looking at me, curiously.

"No, no. I know you don't like that kind of stuff, I was just seeing if you changed your mind about school spirit" I laughed at him as he rolled his eyes.

"You are lucky you're cute, skirt" he said pulling me close to him by my dress.

"Austin" I pointedly looked at him and then down at my dress.

"Sorry, sorry. You know how I find it hard to keep my hands off of you, skirt" he smirked as my face turned red.

"Well I have to go to practice, so I'll see you later" I smiled at him closing my locker and starting to walk away from him.

"Ok Skirt, I'll see ya" I could practically feel his eyes on my ass as I walked away.

And honestly,

I didn't mind.

XXXXXXXXXX

"Go Manitees!" All the cheerleaders shouted as we scored the winning touch down. Everyone cheered and ran onto the field. I stood back and watched everyone.

We all started to pack up our stuff and head home. I put on my oversized denim jacket, grabbed my duffel bag and keys and started walking to my car when I heard a voice behind me.

"Hey Als" I turned around and saw Dallas standing there smiling at me.

"Hey Dallas" I smiled really hoping to ditch him soon.

"So were all going for some pizza to celebrate, you wanna come?" He suggested

"Nah I'm really tired, maybe next time" I smiled at him starting to unlock the car door.

"You 100% sure?" He persisted

"100% sure, Dallas" I was started to get impatient, fighting the urge to tell him the reason I didn't want to go was because of him.

"Ok... I'll see you later Als" he said as he walked away to a car full of people.

I sat into my car and started to drive away, wishing a certain blonde boy could have been here.

XXXXXXXXXX

I was settling down to go to bed when I heard something hit my window. I got out and looked out the window.

"You have got to be kidding me" I smiled as I saw who was down there.

Austin moon was standing in my front yard smiling up at me, holding a handful of stones. I opened the window and whispered/yelled down to him.

"What are you doing here?"

"Wanted to see how my favourite girl was feeling after her big win"

"It wasn't my big win Austin"

"But you sure had a part to play in it. I swear I could hear you shouting from my house"

"Don't you think this is a bit cliché? Even for us?" He just smiled up at me. "Come on up", he started to climb the tree and throw himself in my window.

I laughed at him as he groaned as he hit the floor.

"Don't laugh at me" he glared

"So what are you actually doing here?" I asked as we both sat down on my bed.

"I already told you, I-" I cut him off

"I don't mean your excuse for being here I mean your actually meaning for being here" I said knowing him too well.

He looked down and sighed. "Mom brought a guy over again, and I know that once that is over she's just gonna go and cry about dad and then move onto the next one. I just couldn't be there right now"

I put my hand on his and squeezed it,

"I'm sorry Austin, that must be hard" I said as I rubbed his back.

"Yeah, yeah it is" I leaned over and kissed his cheek, leaning back I was shocked. I surprised myself when I did that. He looked at me in shock too, and smiled. "Can I, Uh, stay here? I know I shouldn't it's just that I really don't want to go back home"

I looked at him wearily and looked at my bedroom door, "Ok, but you have to be gone early if my dad finds you in here I'll be grounded for eternity" I said dramatically.

We both lid back on the bed and got comfortable. Austin wrapped his arm around me and pulled me to him. I should have pushed him away, probably shouldn't have even let him stay the night.

But in that moment, laying in his arms as we fell asleep.

I didn't really care.
