"I blew it," Austin murmured mournfully the next day, slumping on the couch. "I blew it, Dez. How can I not realize this yesterday? God, I hate that Dallas dude." He and Dez were hanging out in his room – just the 2 of them. Dez had offered to hangout with him, maybe it could cheer the blond up, but it seemed that Austin was still feeling guilty about what happened yesterday.

"Hey, cheer up, buddy," the redhead patted Austin's shoulder comfortingly. "It wasn't your fault. Dallas was being a jerk, and lied to Ally. At least you did protect her yesterday didn't you? Didn't you say he looked like he was going to lean closer to Ally right? Ally probably wouldn't like him stealing a kiss from her, right?"

"Well, she does have a crush on him,so if the boy stole one from her, she probably wouldn't mind," Austin sulked. "What does she sees in him anyway? He's a jerk, and before that, he was dating Cassidy. Isn't he a jock anyway?"

"Wait a minute, what are we talking about here?" Dez asked confused. "You protecting Ally or you hating Dallas?"

"Well both," Austin replied.

"Because it sounds you were jealous of Dallas, Austin," Austin's eyes widened at Dez's statement, but his face flushed. Austin scoffed. The action didn't go unnoticed by Dez, who smirked teasingly at Austin. "Aaah, so you were, and maybe are jealous."

"No I'm not!" Austin exploded. "I am not jealous," he said again through gritted teeth. "I just… don't like them not paying attention to me. Ally always stare at Dallas dreamily, and I felt like a ghost when she did that. I … I just don't want anything to happen to Ally, that's all. She's just so nice to me, and I felt like there's something about her that I really like about. After you, she's probably my second friend I had since forever. I was always going somewhere and leaving it, and this is the first time I settle down in a place too. She may be fierce at first, but she's actually really soft and fragile. I just wished this songwriting thing is over though," Austin muttered. "I don't want anything bad to happen to her."

"Ally's a smart kid," Dez said. "She's smart enough to know who's bad and who's good. If she likes Dallas, that means she knows he's a good kid. But you know, you gotta apologize to Ally and settle the problem with her."

"I know," Austin rubbed his neck. "I really have to settle this with Ally. Jimmy's going to be mad if he find out about this, and I don't want to lose my job."

"I don't think that's all the reasons," Dez stated.

"Well, I'm not kidding about wanting to be friends with her, too," Austin admitted. "I just wished she would call me right now, so I can apologize. You know how I hate doing the first moves of apologizing, right?" Dez nodded his head understandingly.

"Hey, Dallas," Ally greeted Dallas as she walked towards the cellphone accesorry cart Dallas was standing beside. "Sorry for yesterday. Austin was being a jerk towards you. I know you didn't do anything at all – right?"

Dallas shrugged. "It's okay, Ally – I get it. He's just wanted attention – I mean, he's a superstar right?"

"Yeah, I thought he was a friend of mine and I can trust him, but really, he was still the same jerk as he was when he's a superstar. Super-super arrogant," Ally commented through gritted teeth, ashamed of Austin, who she thought she believed in. "You know, I'm sorry – for both me and Austin. I also did ran out of the movies too didn't I? I pretty much had to say sorry to all the person inside the movies-"

"Hey, how about this," Dallas started. "How about we hangout today – just the 2 of us?" he suggested, hopeful glint in his eyes. "I mean, we didn't get to hangout and watch the movies seriously right, because of the incident?"

Ally nodded her head eagerly, throwing her arms around him. "I would like that."

"Great," he pulled away, grinning from ear to ear. "So how about we eat lunch together, and watch a movie right now? I heard Frozen is going to play again at the movies at one. It's 12 o'clock right now, so how bout it? Or you still have work?"

"I'm free right now," Ally answered, hiding her blush and excitement.

"Great!" He said again, and offered her his hand. "It's a date."

Ally blushed as she accepted Dallas's hand. "I guess it is."

"Cool!" he said again, and they started to walk away from the cart.

"Hey Ally – guess who got a job at the movies?" Ally's eyes widened as she saw Trish behind the locket, grinning from ear to ear to Ally. "And who got a date with Dallas?" she teased. Ally blushed, but smiled shyly at Trish. "Ooooohh… So I heard about your accident with Austin yesterday," Trish said as she cutted tickets for Ally – who was paying her ticket. Dallas was in line for popcorn. "That's actually really sweet of him."

"What's the sweet thing about him spilling his drink all over Dallas?" Ally frowned.

"Oh, Ally," Trish chuckled. "Little innocent, stupid Ally," Trish patted Ally's hand.

"Why am I stupid?" Ally asked, confused.

"How can you not see what Austin was doing? He was jealous of you and Dallas, duh," Trish said. "And he was looking out for you too. I heard from one of the employees here Dallas was leaning to see the movie better, but I know about boys – he was trying to lean to you, Ally. Dallas has a crush on you, that's why he invited you to the movies. Austin panicked, clearly he doesn't understand how much you really like Dallas, and he wanted to protect you, that's why he panicked and spilled his drink all over Dallas. Dallas lied to you, and you believed him."

"He wouldn't do that," Ally scoffed. "But you really think Austin's just looking out for me?"

Trish nodded. "I know so."

Ally started to feel guilty about everything she done yesterday. "Well," Ally said again, breaking the silence. "Here's the money. Thanks for your advice, Trish – I'll talk and apologize to Austin after this date."

Ally took the tickets and walked towards Dallas. "Here's your ticket, Dallas," Ally smiled guilty at Dallas, who gave her her popcorn and drink.

"Thanks, Ally," Dallas grinned, and she smiled back.

Both of them sat down on their seats, right in the back. It was really dark there, and she got stuck next to the wall. "Why don't we sat down in the middle, Dallas?" Ally asked nervously.

"Well we can see more clearly from the back," Dallas responded, and Ally thought it was a logical reason. She nodded, and sat down. "Well, hopefully there won't be anymore accident like yesterday," Dallas said again.

"Yeah," she agreed guiltily. Stop thinking about him, Ally, Ally thought to herself. It's time to have fun now with Dallas. "Hopefully there won't."

Dallas smiled again.

The movie started, and nothing happened. Suddenly Dallas wrapped an arm around her. "Uuh, Dallas... what are you doing?" Ally leaned back to the wall. "You okay?"

"Yeah, I'm just tired," Dallas yawned as he pulled her closer to him, and put his head on hers. "Hmmm.."

Ally sighed. This was going to be a long movie.

AN: Okay, this one is pretty short. I kinda rushed through this coz I have no idea how boys flirted. I mean, in my country, they do it with really lame pickup lines that you see in the movies, and I don't think they do that in America! Next chapter is going to be an Auslly one though, so review and comment about how should I put it!
