Author's Note: Okay here we go so this is what's going on in this story. Basically it is a cute little story depicting Austin and Ally at band camp. There's the same sort of love/hate relationship going on in this story as in all of my others. The story is told in the form of Ally's diary entry's so it will be switching from past to present tense (sorry about that). It will probably be 8-10 chapters long, it might be longer or shorter depending on how everyone reacts to it. Tell me what you think-

Dear Diary,
Band camp kind of sucks so far but I'm hoping it will get better. There were some really good points in my day but also some really bad ones. It went like this...
I smiled to myself as I walked up to Ft. Oak middle school where band camp was being held. I had my clarinet and I was all ready for whatever music they threw at me. I saw my friend Trish of by the check in table with with her saxophone and waved at her. Then I saw Austin and Dez, kept walking for a couple of seconds, then realized what I'd just seen, stopped, and did a double take. Unfortunately it really was them, Austin with his signature smirk and Dez with a determined expression on his face as he tried to fix his trumpet valve which was probably stuck again (His trumpet valve got stuck like fifteen times just in the last month of school, and it'd been breaking in all sorts of different ways since the beginning of the school year).
I really hate Austin. He's been a jerk to me for the last year, ever since the beginning of seventh grade basically. I just walked away and than found the check in table where I got my name tag and went to find my seat. I sat down at my seat and had to take a picture of my name tag which said
Allyson
Dawson
Grade: 8 Clarinet
Advanced
I know I'm such a dork but seeing that name tag made me really proud. It still does. But anyway the real excitement was when they handed out music folders and assigned chairs. I could take a long time describing this but I know that I'm the only one who really cares about this band stuff. Anyway long story short not only was I playing first part I was also first chair, which was amazing. But Austin was also both on a first part and first chair in the saxophone section. *Sigh* no shocker there I guess, he was first chair in symphonic band last year too, even though he was a seventh grader. Trish was second chair saxophone and had first part too, I was really happy for her and my crush Dallas was first chair trumpet. Dez was fourth chair, no shocker there.
After we all got situated and the music was passed out we did typical band stuff and looked at some of the music. Than we broke down into instrument sections and worked on our chromatic scale. (The reason I'm skipping over most of the band stuff is becasue this is an Auslly story not a story about the minute details of band/band camp, If you want to know about band message me or leave a review or something because I could talk about it all day. Sorry about that, back to the story)
After that we were dismissed to our 20 minute break. I wanted to go over and talk to Trish but instead she was with a bunch of guys from our school including Austin, Dez, and Dallas. I can't really blame her becasue I know she likes Dez (Weird right? I can't understand what she sees in him. Maybe she thinks his stupidness in endearing or something?) and she's trying to hang out with the guys so he will like her. I'm still a little miffed though just becasue I like Dallas to much to go over there, and I hate Austin to much to go over there and I'm kind of stuck just sitting all alone. When the whole group got up to go play basketball I tried to find a basketball so I could join in. There weren't any left so I just kind of stood there and watched. Then Austin's basketball rolled away and he turned to me and said "Well go get it" and all I could think was 'I'm not your b****, get it yourself' but i'm more polite than that so I just went after the basketball and once Austin had turned back around I stuck out my tongue at him (childish I know) and then I took the basketball and started playing with it. I actually made some of the baskets, and I was very proud of myself for looking good in front of Dallas. Then everyone went off and did other stuff but as I went to watch Dallas shoot some more baskets, Dez hit me with a football and Austin started laughing. I wanted to go over and punch both of them but instead I just said "nice throw guys." Honestly sometimes I wish I didn't have such good self control.
After that was woodwind ensemble which was where just the woodwinds worked on a piece for the final concert so basically we just sight-read pieces and eventually the band director decided on the one we were going to play and than we headed to music theory. I sat down at a random table and there were empty seats on either sides of me. Than Trish and Austin arrived late becasue Austin got them both lost. (It was their first time at the camp) Trish took the seat on one side of me and Austin went to sit somewhere else. Not that I really care. Okay that's a lie, I honestly felt kind of disappointed that he didn't take the seat next to me, I mean he basically just showed that he'd rather sit with strangers than near me. Ouch. I don't know why I care but I do. It's weird. So basically I spent the class catching up with Trish, watching the music theory teacher, and occasionally glancing over at Austin (I don't know why) So when class was over I glanced over at Austin one last time and saw he was looking at me. I blushed (only cause I got caught) and pretended I hasn't been looking at him, trying to maintain my dignity.
So yeah that was my day. Hopefully tomorrow will be a little bit better. As strange as it sounds I'm going to try and make peace with the boys (It's so maybe I can get closer to Dallas).
Well, talk to you tomorrow
Ally D. out!
Author's Note: Okay so I know this chapter didn't have much Auslly but I promise that the next chapter will be better and it's way cuter. I'm sorry that my writing just seems to ramble on and on but Ally's probably would too so just try to tolerate it. Tell me what you think
