A&A

"Hey Austin," started Grandma Ruth as Austin got into the beast, "how was your first day of school here?" she finished while smiling softly at him. "It was interesting.." he replied while smiling, mostly to himself.

"And may I ask how?" Grandma Ruth asked as she pulled into the road. "Well, everything here is different than in Boston. I think I learned more in one day here than what I would learn in a month over there. Everyone was so nice, too. I think I actually l-like it here," he whispered shyly.

"I knew you would," Grandma Ruth said confidently. She was one confident person that spoke what she thought. Unless it was something rude, and she didn't feel the need to insult anyone who didn't deserve it. Austin rolled his eyes and sighed.

"Can you please tell me what a teen meeting is?" Austin pleaded. Grandma Ruth laughed and shook her head. "I can't. All I can say is that it has to do with a bunch of teens," she stated. Austin scoffed. "I'm not that stupid," he said while frowning.

"Oh, I know. But I just can't tell you more than that. It wouldn't be fair," she said while turning the steering wheel. "How would it not be fair?" Austin questioned. Grandma Ruth glanced at him and smiled. "Because anyone who knows what my teen meetings are about had to attend one. It's my rule," she explained.

Austin groaned and threw his head back. "Fine. I'll go to one. That's it though," he said while looking at Grandma Ruth sternly. She smiled and nodded. "That's fine by me," she accepted.

Grandma Ruth wasn't stupid. She knew that it would only take one teen meeting for Austin to want to come back. That's all it would take. Well, one teen meeting and Ally Dawson, of course.

A&A

"Alright, so when do these 'teen meetings' start?" Austin asked Grandma Ruth as they walked into the house. He planned to go into his room and just chill until the meeting started. That is if he had time.

"5:30. Sharp. If you're not down here by, or before, that time, I'll start. I'm not one to wait," Grandma Ruth said with finality as she disappeared into the hallway.

Austin sighed, shook his head, and walked up stairs in hopes of possibly taking a nap before having to go back downstairs. It was 3:45 so he had time to spare before the meeting would start.

Keep in mind, he was only going because he was curious. No, it had nothing to do with the fact that Ally Dawson would be there. Not at all.

A&A

Ding Dong

Austin's eyes fluttered open as he heard the doorbell go off. He looked at the clock and was relieved when he saw that it was only 4:54. He sighed as he realized that he wouldn't be able to fall back asleep.

"Austin, can you come downstairs, please?" Grandma Ruth called from the kitchen. He groaned before getting up and fixing his near-perfect hair. Satisfied, he walked out of his room, down the stairs, and into the kitchen.

He was surprised to see Ally talking to Grandma Ruth. Not only that, but she was also talking to that same guy from earlier. Oh no.

A&A

As usual, Ally showed up at Grandma Ruth's place way before scheduled time. And as usual, she had shown up with Dustin. "Hey," she greeted as they walked up the front steps. He smiled and waved.

"Hey Ally. Early as always," he muttered jokingly. She laughed and nodded. "What can I say? I'm a very punctual person," she said as she rang the doorbell.

Dustin shook his head. "No. You see, if you were punctual, you wouldn't be here. You'd be here at exactly 5:30. It's 4:54," he corrected. She rolled her eyes and scoffed.

"Point is that I'm here," she said as Grandma Ruth opened the door.

"Ally! Dustin! Come on in darlings," she greeted cheerfully. "Hey Grandma Ruth," they both greeted as they each hugged her. Ally smiled brightly while stepping inside. This was like her second home.

During the summer, she would always come by and help Grandma Ruth around the house. She had been since she was 13. She didn't plan to stop anytime soon. She pretty much owed her life to Grandma Ruth...

"You two are always so loyal, always getting here before time. If only Trish would be more like that," Grandma Ruth said as she shook her head. Dustin and Ally laughed and walked into the kitchen.

After Grandma Ruth called for Austin to come downstairs, they began to tell her about their day at school. Shortly after, Austin came in with droopy eyes. Grandma Ruth sighed and shook her head.

"You could have made yourself a bit more presentable," she complained. Austin stared from Dustin to Ally and Ally to Dustin. He forced himself to smile. "I did. I fixed my hair," he said innocently.

Ally laughed which made Austin's smile less forced. "Don't you have manners?" Grandma Ruth asked. Austin shook his head truthfully. "No. That's why I'm here," he said hastily.

Ally's smile faded as she heard his harsh tone. She didn't understand why he was so different around Grandma Ruth. She expected him to be more polite now that an adult was around. Obviously she was wrong.

"Uhmm. Hey Austin," Ally started cheerfully. Austin looked at Ally and frowned remembering that the other guy was still there. "Hey Ally. Guy I don't know," he muttered, looking at Ally then at Dustin.

"I'm Dustin. Nice to meet you," Dustin said while sticking his hand out. Austin hesitantly shook it and forced another smile. "You too."

Dustin wondered why Austin seemed so distant. He had seen him earlier around Ally, and he was a totally different person. He had seemed more carefree and happy. That boy was a mystery. A real mystery.

"So," Austin started, "now that I'm here, can you tell me what a teen meeting is?" he asked hopefully. He looked at the three of them as they looked at each other thoughtfully.

"Please?" Austin pleaded. Ally cracked a smile at his eagerness but shook her head. "Not yet. Everyone has to be here," she explained. Austin slumped his shoulders and sighed. "Well, how many people are supposed to come?" he asked curiously.

"2 more. We have a lot more people during the summer, but since school started we only have 4. Now 5 if you stay," Dustin explained. Austin scoffed. "Please. I'm not going to stay. I'm only down here to find out what this stupid thing is about since no one wants to just tell me," he said as he sat down lazily at the table.

Dustin, Ally, and Grandma Ruth looked at each other, knowing that he would be eating up his own words later. This was going to be fun.
