ALLYS P.O.V

Deep breath. Inhale, exhale. I nervously played with the hem of my shirt as I waited for my name to be called.

Why did I agree to this?! I'm so stupid! I mean, sure I only have a few lines to perform but still!

"Ally Dawson!" I internally screamed when I heard that. I took a deep breath, and walked onto the stage.

I stood in the middle where the mic and the spotlight were. Three judges sat a few feet away in front of me; all of them had a score card and a pen in their hand.

I took a deep breath, and spoke my lines.

AUSTINS P.O.V

"Hey Austin!" I turned around and saw Dallas running towards me. I was walking home from school today.

"What up man?" I asked and we did our handshake.

"Dude, I just found out that Dawson auditioned for the play! And I heard that she was really u know what this means, right?"

I shrugged, "That she'll do great in the play?"

Dallas face palmed himself and threw his arms up, "No you dimwit! You need to be Prince Charming! You know why?! Because Prince Charming gets to kiss Cinderella!"

I grinned at that. I mean, I don't mean to brag, but I do have the looks and talent. And I'll automatically win the bet.

I nodded my head, "when are auditions?"

"Tomorrow at lunch. This is your shot Moon!" Then, he left.

*The Next Day*

ALLYS P.O.V

"Ally! The Roster for the play is up! Come on, let's go!" Trish dragged me away before I could reply.

A small crowd surrounded it, but Trish shoved everyone out of the way. I smiled apologetically at the people who sent us a glare.

"Ally, look!" Trish pointed to the paper pinned to the board.

Cinderella: Ally Dawson

Understudy: Mary Dilson

Prince Charming: Austin Moon

Understudy: Sam Hudson

And so on...

"Oh my god! I got the part?!" I jumped up and down. Trish hugged me and congratulated me.

AUSTINS P.O.V

Yes! I can't believe it! It's finally lunch! I'm starving, I swear. I went to my locker, got out my lunch, and went to my table.

On the way there, a bright piece of pink paper caught my eye. I went up to it and read it.

Oh my god. I got the part! I mean, I'm not surprised. I get to kiss Ally! I felt my stomach go all weird. Huh.

I found my table and sat down with my friends.

"What up Austin?" Elliot asked.

"What's up dudes?!" I asked cheerfully. The guys all looked at each other, then at me with their eyebrows raised.

"Someone's in a good mood," Trent said.

I nodded and said, "I'm Prince Charming, and I get to kiss Ally Dawson!" I announced.

Trent's jaw dropped, "Aw! No fair! That's cheating!"

I shrugged, "Hey, you never said there was a certain way I had to kiss her. Besides, I still need to get her to fall for me."

Trent narrowed his eyes at me and slowly nodded.

As I ate my lunch, I couldn't help but think about Ally. I get to kiss her. I must've smiled unknowingly because my friends were staring at me weirdly.

"What?" I asked.

"What are you all smiley about? Don't tell me you're getting feelings for Dawson," Dallas laughed.

"What?," I said convincingly," no way dude! I'm just thinking about the money that's all."

"Yeah man, you're going to be rolling in cash!" Elliot fist bumped me.

When the bell rang, I immediately stood up and went over to Ally. I went behind her, and wrapped my arms around her waist. She let out a squeak of surprise.

"Can't wait to start rehearsal," I whispered in her ear. I smirked at her confused face and went to class.
