Hello everyone! I NEED fluff ideas badly I have one more big event, but I would really appreciate it if anyone could give me ideas! I am going to try to do one sentence paragraphs now instead of 3 huge ones for the whole chapter. I know it's probably hard to read. Anyways, it's probably time for a recap of what has happened.

Ally and Trish go to MFAU. Ally is 15, and Trish is 16 and they are both Juniors. They meet Dez, 16 and a Junior, and Austin, 17 and a Senior. ( If you read my Authors note in one of the earlier chapters, I changed his age, and grade because I have plans for it in the story). They all hang out a lot, and soon Austin and Ally like each other.

Chapter 9

Austin's P.O.V

'Why would I do that?' I thought to myself.

I was going to tell Ally that I really liked her, heck, loved her, for three years. I am pretty sure that Ally likes me back. But when I asked her if she trusted me and she said 'I guess' that completely threw me off.

Now I am back in my room, wondering what I can do to gain Ally's trust.

A&A

It's Monday now, and I walk into English. I see Ally sitting alone so I sit with her. "

Hey" I say, hoping to strike up a conversation, we haven't talked since I ran off on Saturday. "Hey" she replies quietly, looking at her phone.

"Where's Trish?" I ask. "Still in Miami" she responded, still not looking at me. I frown, I know I upset her when I ran off, and I'm trying to fix what I did, but Ally won't talk to me.

"Ally, I know your mad at me for running off, but please talk to me" I begged.

"Austin, I'm not mad at you I am just confused and I need time to think about some things" she replied.

"So we're good?" I ask with a smile. "Yes, Austin, we're good" she smiled back.

A&A

Ally's P.O.V

After English, I went to science, which was super boring without Trish, she should be coming back tonight, after that was History.

I walked over to Austin and sat down. I rested my head on his shoulder, "Hey". He looked down and smiled, "Hey".

The teacher walked to the front of the room, "Good morning class, this week we will be doing a project on someone famous who's career is what you are attending for, so if you are pursuing acting, you would choose an actor or an actress, or if you want to sing you will pick a singer , you will get to pick your partner and your person that you want to write about".

Austin grabbed my hand, "Do you want to come over to my place after school and work on our project". "Whoa, wait up, who said that we are partners?" I said pulling my hand back, my wrist was still sore. "Um, I did" he smiled. "Alright then, who do you want to do the project on, I was thinking Elvis Presley" I said. Austin frowned, "I wanted to do someone cool, a current singer".

"Austin, we can't do a current singer, that won't be fun" I whined. "Fine, but not Elvis" he said. "How about… Michael Jackson!" I said excitedly. "Yes! He is the perfect person to do our project on!" Austin agreed. "What time do you want me to come over" I asked him looking to see what time it was, 5 minutes until class ends. "Um, right after school gets out?" he asked. "Sure" I responded.

While I was packing my things Dallas came over to my table, "Hey Ally, I know we don't really know each other, but I was wondering if maybe you wanted to go to dinner with me on Friday?" he asked. "Um, like a date?" I asked, blushing. "Yeah, I guess you could call it that" he said. "Why not?" I said with a smile, "Oh, you're going to have to pick me up, I don't have my driver's license yet" I said, blushing, again. "Well it wouldn't be very gentlemanly of me to not pick you up, I will see you later, Ally, bye" he said walking back to his desk.

"What the heck!" I heard a sneer beside me. I turned to see Austin, who is very upset. "Why would you agree to go on a date with him?" he asked angrily. "Austin, it's just one date why do you care so much?" I asked, upset that he was making it such a big deal.

Austin stopped glaring at me and exhaled, "Ally, I- I just don't want you to get hurt, that's all, first Elliot, and now Dallas, I just want you to be safe". I looked into Austin's eyes and could see concern and hurt? "Austin, I can take care of myself, but thanks for watching out for me" I hugged him and he was tense but slowly relaxed into the hug.

RRRIIIINNNGG! That's the bell for lunch. "Hey, do you want to go into town to get something to eat" Austin asked. "Yeah, isn't there a Panda Express? I haven't been there in ages" I said. "I think so" he said grabbing his bag. We walked out of the building and headed to the house.

"Can we take your motorcycle?" I asked looking up at him. Austin's eyes lit up. "Really? This is great Ally, you're getting over your fear!" he said picking me up and spinning me around. "Only because I have the best driver" I smiled. "I am a pretty good driver, I should get an award" he said popping his imaginary collar. I laughed as we walked into the house, "Let me grab my keys, and then we can go, you can leave your bag here if you want" he said climbing up the stairs.

I took off my backpack and pulled out my phone going through my contacts. I realized I didn't have Austin's phone number. "Hey Austin!" I called out. "Yeah?" he said coming down the stairs. "Put in your number" I said, handing him my phone. "Ooh, getting' the digits" Austin sang, while typing in my phone. "Here" he said handing me my phone, and walking into the garage. I looked down at his information, and saw that he put the heart eyes emoji around his name. I rolled my eyes and followed him into the garage. He opened the garage door, and started the engine. I hopped on behind him and put my arms around his waist. I loved riding with Austin, it made me happy.

Austin's P.O.V

We pulled up to Panda Express and I offered my hand to help Ally down. When she got off, I didn't let go of her hand and we walked into the restaurant.

Ally squeezed my hand a little and smiled at me, leaning her head on my arm. 'Butterflies' My arm and hand tingled at Ally's touch while we waited in line. I was jealous that Dallas beat me to her, but I need the time to be right so it doesn't ruin or friendship.

It was our turn in line and I order fried rice with orange chicken, Ally got noodles with beef and broccoli. When we had to pay I see Ally reaching for her wristlet, so I quickly get out my wallet and hand the cashier a $20. "Austin, you have to stop buying all of my food" she lightly slaps my chest. I just smile and thank the cashier.

"I'm going to get us drinks, you go find us a table" she says letting go of my hand. "Okay" I say back, turning to find a table. I go to the corner of the store and sit in a booth, waiting for Ally. As she is walking to the table a boy, probably our age stands up in front of her. "Excuse me" I hear Ally say with a smile, she steps to the side but the boy blocks her, "You're pretty hot" he says with a smirk.

I stand up and walk over, 'I hope I get to punch this jerkwad' I think as I get closer, "You should come eat with u-" I cut him off mid- sentence. "I hope you don't mind but my girlfriend and I will be leaving now" I say, snaking my arm around Ally's waist pulling her closer to me. "Oh, sorry man, I didn't realize she was taken" he says stepping back.

"Obviously, someone this beautiful would be taken already". I look down at Ally to see that she is blushing. We walk over to the table and I glare at the boy and his friends. "Austin, stop staring, it's rude" I hear Ally say.

I sigh and pick up my fork, "That guy has some nerve to try to stop women and flirt with them" I mumble, stirring my food. "Austin, it's fine" she says, putting her hand over mine, "You were there, you're always there" she smiled.

"But what if I'm not there Ally? Then what?" I asked. She looked down at her food, "I'll train you" I said smiling. "What?" she asked, almost choking on her food. "I am going to teach you self-defense, starting this afternoon" I smiled.

"Austin, I will be fine" she said. "Please, Ally, it would make me feel better if I knew you could defend yourself, for me? Pleeeeaaaase?" I dragged it out. "Fine, but only so you'll stop asking" she smiled.

"Did you really mean what you said earlier? About me being beautiful?" Ally blushed. I almost choked on my soda, "Ally, you are the most beautiful girl I know, anyone who can't see that isn't the guy for you" I said. She smiled, and that made me tingly. "Austin, you truly are something else" she sighed.

"Come on, we are going to be late for class if we don't leave" I say gathering our trash. "Okay" she said standing up. We threw our trash away and rode back to campus. "Thanks for lunch, Austin" Ally said as we walked into the building. RRIIINNNGGG!

"Come on Ally, we're late!" I yelled running down the hallway. "Hold on, I can't run in heels" Ally called. I turned back around and went to get Ally. "Then get on!" I said. Ally jumped onto my back, and I ran down the hall to the music room.

Just before we got to the hallway the music room is in I heard a voice behind us. "Austin?" I froze knowing that voice all too well. "Hey, Dad" I said sheepishly, turning around. "You two, my office now" he said, motioning for us to follow him.

I walked down the hallway, with Ally still on my back. When we entered my dad's office he gave me a frown. Oh yeah, Ally. I set Ally down, and we took our seats in the chairs by the desk.

"Austin, just because you are my son doesn't mean there won't be consequences" he said sternly. I looked at the ground, "I know" I said quietly. "And you, Ally Dawson?" he asked. "Yes sir" she replied.

"Let's just see about you, shall we?" he said typing her name into his student data base. "Ah, you're the scholarship girl, those can be taken away, you know" he said. Ally let out a small gasp, I grabbed her hand `for reassurance.

"Dad let me explain" I said. "No, no explaining you two were late so that will go on your attendance record. And let me remind you Ally, if you are purposely late or skipping classes, you can lose your scholarship" he said. "I am sorry Mr. Moon, it won't happen again" she said with wide eyes.

"I hope it won't, you can go to class now" my dad said. We stood up and pushed in our chairs. "Not you Austin, I need to talk to you"

I looked over at Ally who was standing at the door, 'sorry' I mouthed. She smiled and quietly said, "Bye". "Bye" I smiled back. She left, and I turned to my dad. "So, you've taken a liking to the scholarship girl?" my dad asked, with a smirk. "She has a name" I gritted through my teeth.

"So you do like the scholarship girl" he smirked. "Dad, I am going to be straight and honest with you, Ally Dawson isn't just some girl, I have loved her for three years, three years, dad. And you might think that I never dated anyone because of your stupid rule, that I can't date anyone because it will interfere with my education, but it was because I was in love with the cashier at Sonic Boom!" I yelled in his face.

"But I don't care about your stupid rule dad, I'm 17 and able to make my own decisions. And now that I found Ally I don't plan on letting her go!" I finished, letting out a sigh. I had held that in so long, I felt like a weight was lifted off my shoulders. My dad just sat there, smiling. 'I just screamed in his face and he's happy?' I was confused.

"Son, I've been waiting for the day you would stand up to me for something you wanted. And I know you say you don't are about my rule, and you are old enough to make your own decisions, and I know it probably wouldn't be the best to date someone your old man doesn't approve of. So I am giving you my blessing" he said slapping me on the back. I smiled and let out a small laugh. To know that my dad approved was great. "I'll see you later dad, bye" I walked out of his office. "Goodbye, son."

I entered the classroom and took a seat next to Ally, with a smile. "Why are you smiling, didn't your dad yell at you?" Ally asked while the teacher sat at her desk. "No, he just wanted to talk, what did I miss?" I asked. "We are doing evaluations today, so the teacher can see where we are with our skills, so it's basically a free day" she said. I pulled out my phone and checked my messages.

Dez: I am going to Nashville today to get some film supplies, need anything?

Austin: No I'm good- see you later

I looked up and Ally was writing in a brown book, I reached over, "Hey, what's that?" I grabbed the book. Ally slapped my hand, "Don't touch my book!". She went back to scribbling. After 2 hours of playing on my phone and talking to Ally, school was out, "Hey I have to go to my dorm and get some stuff, and then I will walk over to your house, okay?" she asked. "Yeah, sure".

A&A

When I walked through the front door, I looked around. How do Dez and I live in such a mess. I grabbed everything on first floor, and shoved it into the closet under the stairs. I ran upstairs and looked in the game room. Why is my house such a mess?

I quickly cleaned and then went into my room. I threw everything into my closet, and ran into the kitchen. I searched through the pantry for potato chips. I heard the front door open, "Austin?" I heard Ally's voice. "I'm in the kitchen" I called out, grabbing the chips.

I walked into the living room, "Hey, so I have chips" I held up the chips. "And I have a punching bag upstairs, so we can train later" I said. "You were serious about that?" Ally asked. "Dixie- Chic serious" I replied.

She laughed and pulled her laptop out of her backpack. "What should we do for our project? I was thinking a report and then maybe a timeline of his life" she suggested. "Ally we have to do something cool, we should do a song!"

"But Austin, this is history, not music, we could do a visual representation, but what would we do?" she asked. "You know his signature red jacket? I have one that looks just like it, I have an older one from when I was younger that would fit you!" I said. After researching for an hour, we took a break and went upstairs.

"Okay, I am going to teach you self- defense" I said. Ally put on the punching gloves. "So what are you going to do if a guy is forcing you to go with him" I asked. "Punch him in the face?" Ally asked. "Yeah, pretend you are going to punch me" I said. Ally raised her arm, and I grabbed her hand and spun to where I had her arms pinned behind her back, and I was behind her. "Now what?" I asked. Ally bent her knee and kicked me in the groin. I let go and fell on the floor. "Are you okay?" Ally asked. "Yeah, I'm fine" I said a few octaves higher than normal.

After I recovered we did punching. I showed her how to punch without hurting her fists. When she went to punch the bag I stopped her, "Your stance isn't right" I put my hands on her hips and turned them. I positioned her arms to where they were bent and by her chest. 'I hope she can't hear my heart' My heart was beating a million miles a minutes. I stepped away, "Okay, go". I watched her for a bit, "We can stop now" I said. "Okay, I am exhausted" she said, taking off the punching gloves.

"I'm going to go Austin, it's getting kind of late" she said packing her things. "Okay I'll walk you out". She walked to the front door and I stepped onto the porch. I hugged her, "Be safe, okay?" I said, looking into her eyes. "I will" she said with a smile, and then she left.

'What am I going to do about her?' I wondered as I closed the door.
