(Day 3)

I woke up to a knock on my door. First I though I was just dreaming and I tried to go back to bed since my alarm didn't ring. Then I heard the knock again. I got up from my bed went to open the door.

When I opened the door I noticed a blond haired boy standing in front of my door. "What are you of all people doing here this early in the morning?" I asked almost half asleep. It was bad enough he was a pain at school and now he's at my house. Great (please note the sarcasm).

"Hey Ally, I'm fine thanks for asking." I rolled my eyes at Austin. "Oh, before I forget. I got you these." He handed me a bouquet of red roses and a teddy bear. "Happy Valentine's Day, Ally!" With everything going on I totally forgot it was Valentine's Day.

"Thanks?" I said as I awkwardly grabbed the roses and bear he handed to me.

"I didn't know what was your favorite animal is so I went the classic teddy bear also Um Ally are you planning to go to school like that." I looked down at my baggy shirt and PJ shorts.

"I have enough time to change before school starts."

"Ally I don't know if you realized this, but school starts in like 10 minutes."

"WHAT? My alarm didn't go off." I started to panic. I didn't want to be late today. I hate being late to school. I ran upstairs to my bedroom and changed into a black pair of skinny jeans and a red peplum top. I ran back down stairs grabbed my backpack and a granola bar and jetted out the door "Shoot. I'll never be able to make it to school on my bicycle before the bell rings."

"Then why don't we ditch." Austin said. I completely forgot about him while I was panicking."

"Shoot. I'll never be able to make it to school on my bicycle before the bell rings."

"Then why don't we ditch." Austin said. I completely forgot about him while I was panicking?"

"Are you crazy? Why should we ditch?" I mean I have never ditched a class. There were days I would fake being sick to get out of P.E. and be late to some classes, but I never ditched.

"Well Ally if today is going to be like Valentine's Day last year then each teacher will spend all of their class period talking about the holiday so we won't even miss much." Austin said.

"Okay maybe your right, but still what if the teacher assigns a project or we miss something important in class. Then what do we do?" I did not plan on failing any class because I ditched school with him.

"Come on Ally we can always email our teachers and ask them if we missed anything important. It will be lots of fun. Just trust me." There was a long pause. I mean I really didn't want to go to school and hear each teachers stories of how their wife dumped them, how they have no one special to share this holiday with or how amazing there husband is.

Austin broke the silence though. He said, "Ally if you don't have fun today then I'll leave you alone for the rest of the month and stop blackmailing you with the 10,000 dollars for the music program. Plus I'll even ask." It wasn't such a bad deal. It sounds like the heavens are finally listening to my prayers.

"All I have to do is not have on bit of fun and everything is over and goes back to the way things use to be."

"Yes but that means you have to listen to me without complaints and if I see you have the slightest bit of fun ditching with me then I win. Deal?" He held out his hand for me to make the deal official, which I shook.

"So what are we doing?" I asked.

"It's a surprise come on." He grabbed my hand and led me to his vehicle that thankfully was not his motorcycle.

We got into the car and just listened to music the whole time Austin was driving. When we arrived at our destination (the Pierre) we got out of the car.

"Looks like we aren't the only people who decided to ditch." Austin said to me as he was pointing to many couple displaying public displays of affection.

"Basically everyone here is either friends or couples." It kind of made me wonder what category Austin and me feel into. "

"Wondering what category we fall into?" He said.

"Did you just read my mind?" Please don't be a mind reader was the only thought repeating in my head.

"No, you facial expression says it all."

"Oh." That was a tad embarrassing. I just shrugged the idea off and decided not to ask. I mean I guess we would be considered dating since when someone is auctioned off it's for a date and since in my situation it's for a month then I believe we are dating. He did call me his girlfriend. Another thing I shouldn't be caring about yet I still am.

"Come on lets go see a movie." He started walking to the small theater that was play a special selection of classic romance movies. "What do you want to watch?" Austin asked.

"A Walk to Remember." I said without taking a second to think about it.

"Okay I will go get the tickets." He went to buy the tickets. Since there wasn't a big line he returned to me shortly. "Do you want to get anything like popcorn, candy, soda?" He offered.

"Sure how about some sour patch kids and popcorn." I was always a pure sucker for sour patch kids. We headed over to the concession stand and bought a bucket of popcorn, some sour patch kids, skittles, and a large soda.

During the movie Austin and me wee both silent till he used the oldest trick in the book. He pretended to yawn and tried putting his arm around me.

"Don't you dare wrap that arm around or I will make sure you aren't able to have any children." I said not keeping my eyes off the movie screen.

"Okay sorry. My bad I was just stretching. No need to take extreme measures" He placed his arm on his lap. The arm trick may have worked yesterday but not today. The rest of the movie went on with no interruptions.

When the movie was over me and Austin left the theater. "Did you like the movie?" I asked.

"Considering I'm a true romantic at heart. I loved it, but that just a secret between us." I smiled. I was nice seeing him admit the truth.

"Should we grab something to eat?" I asked.

"Come on I know this great restaurant. Just follow me."

The restaurant was an old classic 50's diner. The waitresses were on skates and in poodle skirts. Famous artists' posters were plastered all over the restaurant. Eventually we were both seated in a table.

"So you asked me if I like the movie, but I have to ask you, did you have fun at the movies?" Austin asked.

"Well the fact that you used the oldest flirting trick in the book so no." I refuse to admit I'm having fun. All I had to do was avoid admitting I'm having fun and then I won't even finish this month with him and my life can return to the way it use to be.

"You I'll make you admit you are having some fun this Valentine's Day." Then he looked through his menu trying to decide what he wants to eat. I did the same.

Our waitress came and to our table and asked for out orders. At the same time Austin and I said "A classic cheeseburger, side of fries, and a coke."

"I've seen couples come in and out of here today, but you guys are the cutest. I'll bring your order right out." The waitress said.

"Great minds think alike Ally." He said giving me a warm smile.

"Um that's a debatable topic." I said playfully. Then my phone began to buzz. "I have to take this," I said making my way outside the diner.

"Hey Dad." I said answering my phone.

"Ally can you come straight home after school I need to talk to you." My father said on the phone.

"Ya I'll be home shortly actually. I'll see you when you get home." I hung up the phone.

I walked back into the diner. I had to cut this ditch day short with Austin. I needed to get home as soon as I could. I saw he was already starting to eat his cheeseburger and fires.

"Hey Austin time's up. I have to go home" I said in a serious tone.

"Is everything okay?" He asked in a concern tone.

"I don't know. We will have to forfeit our little deal for the time being."

"Ya okay. I ask for some to go boxes so you can eat in the car."

"Thanks."

The car ride on our way back home was silent again, but this time because I was eating and Austin didn't disturb me. No music was playing. You only heard the sound of me chewing and the engine of the car. When we arrived I quickly got out of the car. I looked up at the sky admiring the clouds.

"Having fun watching the clouds, Dawson?" Austin asked.

"Yup well I better go inside. Thanks again for the lift see you on Monday." I started walking up to my front door then Austin got out of the car and chased me.

"Do you realize what you just said?"

"Thanks?" I answered confused.

"No, you said you had fun watching the clouds. That wasn't part of the agenda but you admitted to having fun today. Even if it was just watching clouds. See no need to reschedule our deal. Looks like your still stuck with me for a month." He gave me the biggest smile and hugged me. I froze there for a second then I snapped back into reality.

"Great" I said sarcastically. "You should also respect a person's personal bubble."

"Sorry. I should probably get inside, but first let me give you my number." He handed me a piece of paper with his number on it. "We never worked on ideas for the song so I decided if your not busy this weekend you can call me and can work together." He gave me a smirk.

"Oh I completely forgot about the project. Uh I'll call you if I have time" I said shoving the piece of paper in my pocket.

"Well better let you go inside, but at least call me and tell if everything is okay Ally. I don't want to worry about you. Happy Valentine's Day. " Before I could question him and asked him what he meant he got in his car and drove off.

Today was an interesting Valentine's Day. I still don't know if it was in a good or bad way. Unfortunately it seems like I will still be stuck with Austin, but I fell like maybe it won't fully be bad? Maybe? Maybe not? Well I guess only time shall tell.
