Will Love Ever Find Us?
Ally's POV
That was…strange. I walked back over to my locker, scanning the hallways for any sign of Dallas. I slowly walked down the hallway to my first period which was biology. I finally found the room and walked in to find a seat. I sat down putting my bag on the floor and began reading one of my textbooks. As I was reading the class started to fill with students. I heard all their little remarks like "What a nerd" or "Freak" I decided to block them out until Austin showed up with Cassidy. Just my luck. I looked down at the book, but my eyes just couldn't stay off of Austin I don't know what was edging me on to do this.
Austin's POV
I took my seat at my regular table a couple seats away from Ally. I just couldn't face her over what happened earlier, it would be just too embarrassing. Cassidy took a seat right next to me and gave me a flirtatious smile, which made me a bit sick. She's always giving me these fake cheesy smiles unlike Cassidy's, Ally's smile is genuine and unique. I snapped out of my thoughts and paid attention to the board, copying down the notes the teacher told us to write down. "Ok class you are going to be doing a project with a partner, it will be done at home and it will also be classwork. Your partners are listed on the board you may look now." Are teacher said returning to her paperwork. I went up to the board and looked at the list, holy chizz.
I looked at Ally who was reading her textbook at the moment and I just kept staring at her. "Mrs. Wright? Can we talk?" I asked walking over to my teachers' desk. "Of course Austin what's the problem?" she stacked her papers on the side of her desk and folded her hands. "I really don't think my partner is well suited for me, I'd like to change partners please." I asked as politely as I could. "Sorry Austin but you and Ally have the highest scores in this class together so just to make sure it's equal people are working with people on their level of expertise." She said sympathetically. "I'm sorry Austin." She said returning to her work. I sighed and went to the back to sit next to Ally. "Why are you sitting here?" man is she asking a lot of questions today. "We're partners…again." I said remembering that we were also partners in algebra class together for the class project. "Oh ok." She said shyly. "How about you come to my place and we can work on it together." I asked out of the blue. Man that sounded really desperate oh well. "Oh um ok I guess." She said returning back to her textbook. I let out a sigh and went back to my seat.
Ally's POV
I don't really know why I was being so distanced from Austin. Maybe it's the fact that he poured a carton of milk over me or when he decided to help me when Dallas was about to hurt me. Either way I did not want to get too close to him, all he's going to do is turn his back on me at any moment and I won't let it happen. That was my main objective when it came to anything with Austin. The bell finally rung and I made my way to the door. It was free period so I decided to go to the library to do some research on binomial structures for our science homework aside from the project.
To my dismay Cassidy and her followers had to be at the library at the same time. "Oh look what we have here it's the little freak." Cassidy right in my face. "Can I help you with something?" I said not looking up from the computer screen. She grabbed a chair and sat down staring at me intensely. "Look creep, you better stay away from Austin he is mine. I don't need some pathetic wannabe wanting MY boyfriend." She said with confidence and complete attitude. "Look Cassidy just because we're partners doesn't mean I want him to be mine. I honestly want nothing to do with him so you really have nothing to worry about." I said gathering my books and papers. "Oh I won't have to worry sweetheart because if you even as in touch each other I will ruin you…got it?" she said glaring at me. I nodded and got out of my chair. "Bye freak." She said giggling with her so called "friends". I walked out of the library and shook my head, I'm not going back there anytime soon.
