Hey everybody! Sorry I've been off FanFiction for sooo looong. I was testing out my Sims 3 game. I completed my Lifetime Wish in 5 days! Yes I used cheats. Back to the story.

"Mom! It's not a date!"

"Then why are you wearing a suit and tie?"

"Because I'm going to Ally's dad's award ceremony!"

". . . As her date?"

"Mom!" Austin face palmed and turned back to the mirror. "We're not dating!"

"Then how come she only invited you?" Mrs. Moon cocked her eyebrow.

Austin rolled his eyes. "Because, Trish went to her grandma's house and Dez got teleported to Mars."

"Dez got teleported to Mars?"

"Usually it's Jupiter. Anyway, can I go now? I promised Ally I'd be at the Sonic Boom by 5:00."

"Bye honey! Good luck on your date!"

"Mom!"

Austin sighed as he made his way to Sonic Boom. If you asked him, he wouldn't say he didn't want it to be a date. He was just so caught up in his belief that if they were more than friends it would ruin everything. He never really considered how he felt about her. He had to admit, he did feel a bit different towards her. Dez? Best friend for life. Trish? Just like a big sister. But Ally? He couldn't quite figure out how he felt about her. She didn't feel like a sister, but she was as close as one too. He usually went with partner, but it was in the songwriting sense, yet, it didn't feel like it.

He was so preoccupied with his own thoughts that he didn't realize when he arrived at Sonic Boom. He opened the door and made his way to the practice room, where Ally was busy putting on her makeup. She turned and faced him with a surprised.

"Hey! Try knocking first!"

"Knocking isn't my thing. I'm more of a barging in kind of guy."

"And if I wasn't dressed . . .?"

"It's 4:35."

"Whatever!"

I sat down next to her and watched her put on blush in an annoying fashion.

"May I help you?"

"Wanna have a staring contest?"

"Austin, I have to get ready!"

"I didn't hear a no!"

"No."

"Well now I'm bored."

"Ally! It's time to go!" Mr. Dawson called.

"Comin' Dad!"

"Well, what luck!" Austin smiled as they went downstairs.

At the awards ceremony . . .

"Is he up yet?"

"No."

"Is he up yet?"

"No."

"Is he up yet?"

"And now Lester Dawson . . ."

"Shush Ally! He's up!"

"You're shushing me?"

"For the Most Rule Efficient Store award!"

"Yes! We got it again this year! Low-five!"

They low-fived, and that made their hands intertwined. Austin, however, didn't want to let go. Instead he gave it a little squeeze and smiled to himself.

After the awards show . . .

Austin and Ally were outside the practice room, just talking, like friends do, when Ally kissed him on the forehead. "You are the bestest friend ever." She declared walking into the practiced. "Bye."

"Uh, bye?" Austin scratched the back of his head. he had a strange new feeling. The place where Ally kissed him on his forehead tingled, his palms were, his throat felt dry, and his heart skipped a beat.

He had a lot of thinking to do.

12:00 AM

"Dez? What do you do when you're in love with your best friend?"

Sorry if it's low quality. I'm recovering from malaria. I swear, where I live people act like it's the common cold. "You have malaria? It's not like it can kill you or anything." Yeah, IT CAN. Anyway, OMG those reviews were SO NICE. So nice. You know, reading your reviews really makes my day. Which is why I am not updating until I get ten reviews. Come on people! Have a nice day!
