Trish's POV

"Trish!"

I turned around to see a red-headed boy, panting. He was resting his hands on his knees while bending over, catching his breath. I waited for him to finish so he could speak clearly. When he was done, he stood up straight, revealing the huge height difference between the two of us. Yeah, I'm short, so what?

"Trish, I, I know, I, he, I know why, I.."

"Speak clearly you doof!" I cut. He put his hands on his hips and frowned. His funny expression actually made me want to giggle. Dez then dropped his hands to his sides and took a deep breath.

"I know why Austin has been ignoring Ally," He finally said, clearly this time. I scrunched up my nose.

"So he really has been ignoring Ally?" I asked. Dez nodded.

"Okay, so why was he ingnoring Ally? What did she do?"

He opened his mouth to say something but he closed it again and turned around to look at his surroundings. The hallway was almost empty, just a couple of students still lingering around or waiting for their ride. It time to go home anyways. After making sure that the "coast was clear", he turned back to me and spoke.

"Two weeks ago, Austin saw Ally and Max kissing, at the mall's cafeteria.."

"SHE AND MAX WHAT?!"

"Shh I'm not done yet!" Dez shushed. I gestured my hands to tell him to go on.

"He and Ally were planning to meet up at Sonic Boom, but she wasn't there. So he asked Mr. Dawson, who happened to be in the store, where she is. He said that she was out to buy smoothies. So Austin went to the cafeteria and found Ally and Max kissing," Dez explained.

I couldn't believe this. Ally and Max kissed? And she didn't even tell me?

Weird. Ally always tell me everything. Why didn't she tell me about this?

"So that's why he was ignoring her? That didn't really make sense.."

"He said that he was done. That that was the last straw. He is trying to move on from Ally, so he tries dating Cassidy."

"But he can't give up! Didn't he himself promised to keep fighting for Ally?" I protested.

"I asked him that too. But all he said was that he was done."

Silence grew between us. Lots of thoughts were in my head. First of all, why was Ally kissing Max? Second of all, why didn't she tell me? Third of all, why was Austin giving up so easily? What should I do?

"Can't we just do something to fix this?" I asked.

"Maybe. Do you have any idea why Ally and Max were kissing?"

"No, she didn't even tell me she and Max kissed!" I threw my hands up in the air.

"Okay calm down. There was probably a good explanation on why she didn't tell you.." Dez said, trying to calm me down.

"Really? Like what?"

"I don't know I'm not a girl!" he exclaimed. "Why don't you ask her why?"

"Me? Ask her why what?" I asked.

Dez rolled his eyes. "Ask her why she kissed Max. Geez."

My cheeks redden in embarrassment. Way the go Trish, you acted like a dumbo in front of a doof.

"Oh, right," I answered. "But what about Austin? What are we gonna do about him?"

"I've talked to Austin and he said he will start hanging out with us again.."

"Great!"

We then said our goodbyes and he went home. I went to the school's parking lot, spotting my old car. It was an old and used car which my parents bought for me for my 16th birthday. I then modified it so now it was painted purple and the seats inside had zebra patterns all over me. My typical style.

My car stood alone in the parking lot. The other cars were all gone from it's spot, driven away from school. I digger for my car keys in my backpack. It took me a while to find them. I wasn't a very well organized person.

As I found them I unlocked my car and opened the door. I slid into the driver's seat while I threw my bag into the passenger's seat next to me.

I then drove away from school to my house. I blasted the radio on the way, singing along to a few songs. I arrived like 5 minutes later. My house actually not that far from school, but being the lazy person I am, I chose to drive to school instead.

I parked my car into the drive way. I unfastened my seatbelt, grabbed my backpack and went inside my house. I said hi to my mom and quickly went upstairs to my room.

I threw my backpack to the corner near where my desk is and jumped into bed. I then reached over to grab the phone on the bedside table. I dialed numbers which I had always memorized in the back of my head.

"Hello?" A faint voice said.

"Hello? Ally?"

"Trish! Hi? What's up?" the voice said, more cheerful this time.

"Are you working today?"

I knew we were on the phone, but I could tell that she was shaking her head. "No, it's my day off. Why?"

"Can you come over to my house? You know, girl times?"

She giggled. "Sure. I'll be there asap."

"Okay cool. Bye!"

"Bye!"

I hung up the phone and returned it to the bedside table. I then sit up and sprang towards the door. I ran through the hallway and made my way halfway down the stairs.

"Mom!" I yelled.

"Yes sweetie?" she answered, yelling as well.

"When Ally gets here would you tell her to come directly to my room?"

"Okay!"

"Thanks mom!" I yelled, running back to my room.

I had to dig some information from this girl.

Ally's POV

I stepped into Trish's porch. I stood in front of the door and rang the doorbell. A few seconds later, Mrs. De La Rosa opened it, with a smile on her face.

"Ally! Hi! It's been a while since you came here!"

"Yeah.. I'm kinda busy lately."

"Please, come in, come in!"

I smiled sweetly before stepping in. Trish's house was like my second home. I came here real often since I was little. I love the De La Rosa family too. They are all sweet, yet sometimes sassy, people. They're like a second family for me too.

Trish's mom treated me like her own daughter. Ever since my mom went to Africa to study the wild life, she took care of me like how my mother used to. It's not like I was replacing my mother with someone else, I would never do that. But I just need a motherly figure while my mother was away.

"Trish told you to come upstairs to her room. I'll be in the kitchen if you need me" she smiled.

"Thanks", I replied. She then disappeared to the kitchen.

I made my way up to Trish's room. I knocked the door gently before opening it and stepping in.

She was laying on her bed, with her stomach underneath, playing her laptop with her leopard printed headphones. She sure had a 'Loud' taste.

When she saw me, she took off her headphones and closed her laptop.

"Hey girly! Come sit," she said as she patted an empty spot next to her.

I walked to the bed and sat down. "So what are we doing?" I decided to ask.

"Weelllll I actually have something to ask you.." she said while playing with her black and long, curly hair.

I furrowed my eyebrows. "What?"

"You see.. Ummm... WhywereyouandMaxkissingatthemall'scafeteria?"

"Can you please repeat it a little more slowly?" I asked.

She took a deep breath. "I was asking, why were you and Max kissing at the mall's cafeteria?" she repeated, only way slower this time.

I froze. My body suddenly became so tense. How did she know about this? I've never told anyone, even her, about this!

"Whaaaaat? Nooo!" I denied using my high pitched voice I always use when I'm lying.

"Ally I know that voice. You're lying. Now spill."

"H-how did you know about the kiss? I've never told anyone about this" I asked.

"I'll tell you later. Now, tell me the story on why you were kissing Max!"

"Fine. It started two weeks ago when I promised Austin to meet up at Sonic Boom.."

I tapped my pencil to my songbook as I figured out the next lines for the lyrics for my song. I hummed some melodies. I started scribbling something in my book as I found some lyrics.

Then I felt my throat went dry. I really needed to drink something. But since there was a strict 'Do not eat or drink in the store' rule, I had to get a drink outside.

I glanced at my watch. 4:45 p.m. I had like 15 minutes before Austin got here.

"Dad I'm going out to buy smoothies, I'll be back in about 10 minutes!" I yelled.

"Okay honey!" my dad yelled back from who-knows-where inside the store. I grabbed my purse and marched out of Sonic Boom.

I head towards the mall's cafeteria. I went straight towards the smoothie stand. I ordered myself a peach mango smoothie. As I paid for my drink, I went to find some empty seat for me to sit down and drink.

I spotted an empty table and started walking towards it. I was about to sit down when I felt a light tap on my shoulder.

I immediately turned around to see who it was. I stumbled back slightly as I saw who that person was.

"M-max, what are you doing here?" I asked.

"Actually I could ask you the same thing" he smiled.

"Oh."

"So Ally, wanna go to the movies?" he offered. I quickly shook my head.

"Sorry Max I can't. I promised Austin to hang with him later."

"How about tomorrow?"

"Can't."

"Why not?"

"I just can't okay?"

"Ally," he said softly. "come on give me a chance.."

"No Max I can't risk being hurt by you ever again. I told you that before."

"But I promise-"

"No Max, I can't trust you, sorry."

"Ally-"

"I'm so sorry I can't-"

Suddenly, I was cut by his lips crashing into mine. He wrapped his hands on my waist and pulled me closer, so we could get closer. I rested my hands on his chest.

No. It didn't feel right. That wasn't good. That was not supposed to happen.

I pushed him away, disconnecting our lips by force. Anger rushed throughout my whole body. I felt my blood boiling. My ears were hot as if steam were coming out of it.

"WHAT THE HECK WAS THAT FOR?!" I screamed.

"So-sorry I was too caught up in the moment!" he apologized.

"Goodbye Max" I said as I grabbed my purse and smoothie and stormed off, leaving him in the cafeteria.

I blinked a few times, trying to stop the tears from running. I ran to the store and instantly marched to the practice room.

My dad didn't really notice me coming in, so he said nothing. After I went inside the practice room, I curled up in the sofa and cried, letting my tears go.

I forgot about my promise to Austin of meeting up. I was way too angry to Max. How could he do that? Didn't I made myself clear enough that I don't want him back?

After my tears started to dry, I quickly rubbed it away with the back of my hands. I was not letting this get to me anymore. I'll just have to act like nothing happened.

"So that was pretty much what happened. I'm sorry, I should've at least told you.." I ended my story.

Trish stayed quiet for awhile. But then her face turned red in anger.

"THAT JERK! HE CAN'T JUST GO AROUND AND KISS YOU LIKE THAT! WHO DOES HE THINK HE IS?!" she yelled in anger.

I chuckled instead. "Calm down Trish, I'm over it."

"B-but he made you cry! And he will for sure pay for it!"

"Trish," I said with a stern voice. "Do not hurt him. Okay? Don't. He's not worth it."

"Ugh fine!" she scoffed.

"Besides, I didn't return the kiss" I added.

"You didn't? Why?" she asked.

"Because it felt so..wrong.."

"What do you mean by 'wrong'?"

"Like it's not supposed to happen."

"Um it's not remember? That douche wasn't supposed to kiss you!"

"No, I meant it was wrong. Like that kiss was supposed to be shared with someone else."

Trish raised her eyebrows. "And that someone is..?"

"I don't know okay? Or at least not yet anyway."

She chuckled lightly. "Don't worry girl. I am pretty sure you'll meet 'the one' soon." she winked.

I laughed and grabbed a pillow and threw it at her. It landed right on her face. She laughed as she grabbed another pillow and threw it at me. We laughed as we keep throwing pillows at each other.

But I really wished that Trish was right. That I'll meet 'the one' soon.
