Chapter Three
The Party
Austin's POV
I look at my phone. It was 8:39, thirty-nine minutes after the party starts. Dez, Trish and Ally were supposed to be picking me up. I stand up and look at my reflection in the mirror. I had a plain dark red t-shirt, a pair of black skinny jeans, and my black converse. I never really dressed up for parties. There wasn't really a need to.
I was about to call Dez, when I got a text. It was from Dez.
Sender- Dez
Sorry for running late. It takes Trish forever to get ready and then she had to pull Ally from her house to the car. We will be there in a few minutes.
Thank God, I thought something bad happened for a second.
It was a few minutes later when I heard my mom call me.
"Austin, there is a pretty girl here for you."
I run down the stairs to the front door. Ally was standing in the doorway, her face a deep red.
"Mom, her name is Ally."
My mom apologized. "Now where are you going?"
"We are going to a party." I walk out and stand beside Ally. "And we're already late. I'll call if something happens. 'Kay?"
Mother nods, "Well okay. Be careful, sweetie. Oh and you too Ally." She shuts the door.
I turn to Ally. I was going to apologize for my mom. But the way Ally looked stunned me.
Her hair was perfectly curled and she was wearing a purple tank top, with a cut black t-shirt over it and black leather skinny jeans, and black converse like mine.
"What?" She asked. "Do I look bad?" She started chewing on her hair. "Trish picked it out."
"No it's not that. You look beautiful."
I could've sworn I seen a blush but she ducked her head down and whispered. "Let's go."

We got to house when the party was in full swing. We all get out and walk up the pavement. The door opened before we could knock.
"Hey Dez, Trish, New Kid and ummm, Ally," The guy, that I was suspecting was Kendall Mason. "Come in."
We walk in. Trish saw some people that she knew and walked towards them. Ally trailed behind her, keeping close. I just followed Dez and met some new people.

I didn't know what time it was but Dez has left me with a bunch of girls. I was sitting on the couch surrounded by them. They kept touching me and giggling when I said something. I didn't like all this attention.
"So Austin, what do you look for in a girl?" One of them asked. I knew she told me her name but I just don't remember it.
When she asked me the question Ally popped in my head. Now why the hell did she come up?
I look over at the girl, she was blonde and blue eyed. I didn't really enjoy blue eyed girls.
"Ummm, musical and brown eyed." I said.
The girls giggled and began saying random instruments that they supposedly played. I knew they were lying.
I stood up and said. "Ummm, can I be excused for a second, ladies?"
"Sure, but come back quick." One girl said.
I smiled and winked at her. She had a giggle fit. Girls are crazy.
I decided to walk around the house, for one to see if I could find Trish, Ally or Dez. But after going around the house about fifteen times I gave up. I couldn't find them anywhere. Well not until I saw Trish and Ally in the doorway to the backyard with two dudes. I could tell Ally wanted to get out of the grip of the man's gaze. She stood with her arms crossed looking down as he whispered things into her ear. I couldn't help but feel a pang of jealous and the need to protect.
"Nice choice man." I turned to my left; a clearly drunken boy was talking to me.
"What?" I asked.
He motioned towards the doorway. "That Ally chicky, she's hot. But I wouldn't waste your time. I've been trying to bark up that tree since seventh grade. But she never talks."
"Does anybody know why she won't talk?"
He shakes his head. "No, the girl is a mystery to us all. A hot mystery." The boy puts his hand out, "The name's Dallas."
I shake his hand. "Austin. Well thanks for the heads up."
"Anything for a brother," He pats me on the back. He probably won't even remember this conversation by the morning.
I look over back at Ally. She looked like she wanted to die in that moment. The guy that was trying to hit on her grabbed her arm and turned her towards him. He said something and she looked down. Trish and that other guy was now gone. Why did her best friend just leave her? The guy reached down and pinched Ally's ass. I wanted to rip the fucking guy's eyes out. I walked over to them.
"Dude, lay off. She's my girl." I say snaking my arm around her waist. I felt her tense up but immediately calmed.
The guy backed off with his hands off. "I'm sorry man. I didn't know." He walked over to another girl, tripping over his own feet.
I looked at Ally. She was staring at the floor, and her eyes were tearing up.
"You wanna get out of here?" I whispered.
She nodded.
I grabbed her hand and we headed for the main door.

Ally's POV
I was still holding Austin's hand as we walked down the sidewalk. He was holding my hand tightly. I didn't know where we were going but I was glad I was away from that party. I looked up at Austin; he was staring straight ahead, he looked like he was thinking of something really hard. I wanted to say thank you but the words wouldn't come out of my mouth. We stopped walking and he looked down at me.
"Are you okay? He didn't hurt you or anything right?" He asked.
I nodded to say I was fine. But my butt still kinda hurt from where he pinched it.
He nodded, too, and sighed running his hand through his hair. "Good," He looked down at me.
I didn't know what it was. Maybe it was the mood from him saving me or it just happened. We both leaned in and our lips touched. I wasn't really sure what to do but I felt sparks go through my body. I draped my arms around his neck. He put his hands on my waist and pulled me closer. I felt more sparks fly as our mouths moved together. Then I realized everything that was happening. I was standing on a sidewalk having a make-out session with a guy I didn't even know. Fear overcame me; memories began to flood my brain.
I put my hands on his chest and pushed him away. "I-I need to g-get back to Trish." I stuttered out.
He backed away from me. "God! I didn't mean to…Damn…I'm sorry." He shook his head and nodded. "Yeah, we should get back."
We turned around and started walking to Kendall Mason's house. He seemed mad. I didn't want him to be mad at me. So when we crossed the street I grabbed his hand. He seemed to calm down a little but his jaw was still fixed. I wonder what he was thinking.
Austin's POV
I took her by hand into the house and we began to look for Trish and Dez, when we couldn't find them we walked outside in the front to find them. But the car was gone.
"Shit!" I run my fingers through my hair. I looked over at Ally. She was chewing on her hair.
"They left us?" She whispered.
"It's okay Ally. I'll just walk you home, okay?"
"A-Austin, I don't like the dark."
"It's okay. I'm going to be right beside you every step of the way."
She shrugs and nods.
When we started walking she grabbed a hold of my arm. I liked her touching me.

After she told me the directions to her house, I finally got her to her house safe. And she didn't even have a nervous breakdown or anything.
We stood on her front porch. We stood there staring at each other for a few seconds. She was still holding my hand. She turned and unlocked the door, then looked back at me. She stood up on her tip-toes and kissed me on the cheek. I felt myself starting to blush.
"Thank you, Austin."
"Y-You're welcome, Ally."
She walked in to her house and didn't let go of my hand until she was fully in the door. She looked back at me.
"Goodnight," I said.
She smiled. "Goodnight Austin." And she shut the door.
I turned and started walking to my house. I knew I'd have to ask Dez why he and Trish ditched us at the party tomorrow. But right now, I honestly didn't have a care in the world.
