So here's Ally's first day of senior year. I just want to make it clear that Austin wasn't being mean in the last chapter, he hates shopping of any kind because its long and boring and he usually winds up carrying the bags and he's a firm believer in the fact that summer is time for fun and not homework, his girlfriend just so happens to be a classic overachiever. He's also a major procrastinator something the Ally doesn't like.
I don't own Austin&Ally
Chapter Nineteen: First Day of Senior Year
"Lets not do that." Austin said gently taking the strand of hair Ally had been chewing on out of her mouth.
"I can't do this Austin." Ally said her eyes wide and focused on the school in front of them. "Take me home and I'll find a way to convince my mom to homeschool me. I can't go through this again, freshman year was bad enough."
"Ally look at me." Slowly her gaze shifted toward him. When their eyes met he could see just how freaked out she was about starting the school year. If he didn't get her to calm down soon she'd wind up having a panic attack right there in the jeep, her ragged breathing told him so. He leaned over the console and placed a soft kiss on her forehead, "You can do this I know you can. Just remember that it's high school and that you've been kicking it's ass since freshman year."
She smiled at him and followed his breathing instructions, he'd become really good at calming her down. After a quick kiss the two of them got out of the jeep and made their way into the school. Whispers and stares followed them as they walked, his arm around her shoulders and her arm around his waist, through the hallway toward her locker. He should've guessed that this would happen it was a known fact that Austin Moon didn't date.
"People are staring." Ally said quietly.
"Only because we're together." Austin whispered to her.
"They're still staring." Ally squeaked.
"Well people should mind their own freaking business." Austin said loudly causing the people who had been staring to look away, it didn't stop the whispers. He'd been punished by the petite brunette under his arm for his major procrastination and as a punishment she forbade him from using curse words. It was proving to be difficult since the words he was using as substitutions for curse words didn't seem to have the same effect. "Can I please have my colorful vocabulary back?"
"Did you learn anything?" Ally asked seeming to have calmed down now that there weren't people obviously staring at them.
"That Ally D is a scary woman when it comes to anything education related." Austin chuckled.
"Well don't forget it." Ally said with a smile. "Are you going to break that habit of yours?"
"Yes, scout's honor." Austin said.
"I find it hard to believe that you were a Boy Scout."
"Do you want to see pictures? I think Dez has some and the ones my parents took are probably somewhere in the attic."
"I'll meet you in front of your fourth period before lunch okay?" Austin said. Ally found it sweet that he had memorized her schedule and knew exactly where all of her classes were. He removed the silver chain around his neck which had a silver whistle hanging off of it, she never saw him without it, and put it on her. "For luck."
"Thank you." Ally said her eyes shifting nervously between him and the door to her English classroom.
"Don't worry you'll be fine." Austin said kissing her lightly on the lips. "I believe in you Ally-cat and you should really believe in yourself because you're amazing. I wish we had every class together but sadly I have to tear myself away from you and make my way over to gov."
"Go you shouldn't be late on the first day of class." Ally said smiling into his goodbye kiss.
She watched him walk away and tried to ignore the many stares she was getting. Figuring that the only way to escape the stares of her fellow students was to walk into her English classroom. Being her typical self she took a seat in one of the desks at the front. Her phone buzzed and she took it out of her bag to check who had messaged her.
Scar: How you holding up?
Ally: I'm a nervous wreck. People are staring.
Scar: Only because Austin's in a serious relationship.
Ally: Yeah he said that too. Where are you aren't you in my English class?
Scar: Two rows over and four seats back.
"I think I'm going to be sick." She said at the same time she typed it.
Before Ally got Scarlett's reply she grabbed her bag and bolted out of the room. She threw open the door to the first empty stall she found in the bathroom. When she finished emptying her stomach she merely sat on the floor and brought her knees to her chest. Uncharacteristically she cursed Dallas for being alive, it was his fault that her stage fright had escalated to such an intense level. It was now a phobia that triggered the most horrible panic attacks. She lifted her head when she heard someone in the stall beside hers also emptying their stomach into the toilet.
"If you want privacy this is the best bathroom on campus to get it." The girl said once she too sat down on the bathroom floor. "Its too out of the way for people to use it."
"Good to know." Ally said knowing that if she ever needed to hide or cry she'd have a place to do so.
"What's your story?" She asked.
"I don't like attention and I've been getting a lot of it because of who I'm dating." Ally said not really knowing why she was confiding in this stranger. "I'm also new here."
"Who are you dating?"
"Austin Moon."
"Wow that would generate attention, the school's biggest player is in a commited relationship with the new girl."
"Why are you in here?" Ally asked.
"Ate too much at breakfast." She answered sticking a piece of gum underneath the stall. "It'll help the shakey feeling and the nasty after taste."
"Thanks." Ally said.
"So who's Dallas?"
"My ex."
"Oh."
"Yeah. I'm Ally by the way."
"Indie."
After a while of random conversation Ally and Indie met each other face to face. Indie was a couple inches taller than Ally with stormy grey eyes and long dark brown hair that cascaded down her back in loose waves. Indie turned out to be in her English class and with her new friend by her side Ally walked into her English class almost half an hour late. After class Indie walked her to her physics class since it was in the same area as her chemistry class, they had thrid period together so they agreed to meet in front of Ally's class before heading down to AP government.
"So how was your morning." Austin asked as he took Ally's hand and led her in the direction of the cafeteria.
"I spent half of first period in the girl's bathroom where I puked up my breakfast but other than that it was okay. I met a couple of people a girl named Indie and a guy named Brett." Ally said quickly in the way she did when she wanted something overlooked. "I really like my government teacher and my physics teacher they actually look like they want to be teaching."
"Pause and rewind, you spent half of first period puking in the girl's bathroom." Austin said stopping in the middle of the crowded quad area.
"I threw up and then sat on the floor talking to my new friend Indie, who also threw up in the bathroom." Ally said not meeting his eyes.
"Why didn't you tell me before now?"
"Because I didn't want to disappoint you." Ally said looking down at their feet. "You believed in me so much that I felt if I told you what happened somehow you'd be disappointed in me for not being able to do something as simple as sitting through the first class of the day."
"Hey," He said bringing his thumb underneath her chin and tiltling it upward so she was looking at him. "I wouldn't have been disappointed, worried maybe, but not disappointed. While I may not know how difficult this whole thing is for you I do know that it is difficult."
"Its senior year I should be having the time of my life with my friends back home in Miami not freaking out over everything here." Ally said tears filling her chocolate colored eyes. "I hate it here. I want to go home."
"Please don't cry you know I hate it when you cry." Austin said wrapping his arms around her and bringing her into his chest where she cried into his shirt regardless of his request. He glared at some curious onlookers and told them to fuck off.
"I kind of missed your colorful vocabulary." Ally said. She looked up at him and quietly said, "I'm sorry."
"For what?"
"For making it seem like I hate everything about being here because the truth is I love being right here." Ally answered.
"Right where?" Austin asked bringing his forehead down to hers.
"In your arms." Ally said blushing. "I really do love you."
"I know and I love you too." Austin said closing the distance between them. When they broke apart he gently tugged on one of her curls and in a voice so breathless said, "Come on lets get some lunch before Music Theory."
