Three years later
Dear Austin,
How's your first year of NYU? Bet you thought I forgot huh? Nope. Even though I haven't had a chance to reply to your email from two weeks ago, you and your college stunts have been on my mind for a while now!
I can't believe I'm finally a senior in high school.. FINALLY! I'm applying to UCLA, UCSD, NYU, Columbia University, and like two other ones on the east coast.
Maybe I'll finally get to meet you. Seems weird after all these years no?
Gosh writing college essays are a big waste of my life. I could be doing so many better things, like hanging out with my boyfriend for example.
So, you mentioned something in your letter about still being single.
Come on man! Go get a girl. I'm rooting for ya.
Love,
Ally
And with her closing statement, she raced off to get ready to meet her boyfriend at his house for dinner.
Dear Ally,
College is great! It's everything I hoped it would be. What's even better is that Dez (I believe I've mentioned him quite a few times now) goes to NYU too! So I'm not completely alone.
Believe me, I know how much college applications suck. I was just there a few months ago! Mary is applying to Columbia and NYU as well.
By the way, Dez and I got a new apartment in the city! It's right across the street from my Nana's place. In fact, we can stare right into her big bay window! Weird huh?
I really hope you come to New York. I've been dying to meet you.
By the way, you looked really stunning in the last photo you sent me of you and your dog at the beach. I'm not surprised Dallas got you as his girlfriend. Smart guy.
Oh and how ARE you and Dallas doing by the way? Isn't your like second anniversary or something coming up soon?
I've decided to focus on my studies for now, and I'll get me a girl in a bit.
Nice to know you're there for me though.
Have fun!
Love,
Austin
"Dallas?" Ally called, as she gently opened the door to his LA home. "You here?"
It was two weeks before their second anniversary. She hadn't realized how long it was until Cassidy asked her if she was still a virgin. Sadly, the answer was yes.
"Honey?!" Ally yelled, a little louder this time.
She thought she'd heard a movement from his room, and quickly went up to investigate.
"Dal?"
She turned the knob of his bedroom door, and opened it.
What she saw before her would potentially change her life forever.
Dallas and Cassidy were making out on his bed, and neither of the two were showing any signs of acknowledgement.
"OH MY GOD! WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING?" she yelled, finally catching their attention.
"Ally, oh my God!" Dallas exclaimed, quickly shoving Cassidy off of him. "Babe, it's not what it looks like!"
"Yeah right Dallas. It's pretty difficult to misinterpret what the two of you were doing! And Cassidy, YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO BE MY BEST FRIEND!"
Cassidy forced a smile. "I AM Ally."
"NO YOU'RE NOT!" Ally shouted back. "Dallas, what ever we had here, it's done. I'M done."
She ran out of the bedroom, slamming the door in his face. She angrily stomped down the stairs.
Precisely a second later, the door opened again and Dallas raced out to stop Ally.
"Ally-gator!" he begged, putting his arm around her waist. "Stop! Listen to me."
"NO! Get your hands off of me!"
"Ally, would you please-"
"I SAID NO. NOW GET THE HELL AWAY FROM ME!"
She struggled to get out of his grasp. Soon, he gave up and let her go.
Ally closed the door to the house, and sprinted to the car, reluctant to show her tear-stricken face to the world.
Who could she talk to about this? Not her parents, definitely not her sisters, and she now realized not to trust anyone from her and Cassidy's joint circle of friends.
There was one person she knew would never let her down.
Austin
