A/N OKAY. Let me begin this by saying something. PLEASE READ. If my last Writer's Announcement offended anyone, I'm sorry. Well, not necessarily offended, but, just made anyone upset by me saying I wouldn't have the motivation to write a sequel unless I met my goal. Let me explain myself... I'm very, very busy. I wouldn't necessarily feel the motivation I was speaking of, simply because I want to know that the readers want the sequel as badly as I do. That's why I set up the challenge of 200 reviews, 66 favorites and 116 follows. That way you all could kind of prove that you wanted it. I LOVE writing for you all. but it takes a lot of time to write a good story, and when I'm taking the time to write them, I want to at least know that you all want to read it. So that's my explanation. Once again, so SOOO sorry if I let anyone down. :( I did not mean to do that at all. Please understand where I'm coming from. So, yeah... Here's the next chapter!


DISCLAIMER: I do not own Austin&Ally nor am I associated with it in any way. All characters belong to Disney, however, I created Ian. All I did was twist the story line. I also don't own the song "Never Say Never" by The Fray, nor am I associated with The Fray.


Austin told her. Leah, that is.

When she had saw him, she had immediatley run up and hugged him, and he had very hesitantley hugged her back. Or, so Trish tells me. She watched them from afar as it happened. She says he got right to the point and that her face fell. First, she showed sadness, then anger. Then she just shrugged and walked away.

I have yet to see Leah, so it kind of freaks me out. Trish and I are in my room right now as she tells me this. She's painting her nails, and I'm sitting on my bed biting my own.

"Do you think she hates me, Trish?" I asked.

She nodded right away and said "Definitely."

I groan and fall back, putting a pillow over my face. "Just my luck! My first year in school and I've already made an enemy!"

Trish laughs loudly. "That's funny, Ally, because most girls who just came to a new school would already have a ton of enemies."

I raise my eyebrow and turn my head to look at her. "Really?"

She nods. "Totally." She blows on her nails then flaps her hand in the air. "You've done really good so far."

I grin. "Thanks, Trish."

The next day was the first time I saw her. That's when I understood why Austin had cared so much. She was totally stunning, with Blonde hair that flowed down her back in tamed waves, and bright green eyes. She had glowing skin and a perfect body. There was no way a guy could ever find her unattractive.

I was in the hall when I spotted her, and when she spotted me, she narrowed her eyes and flicked her hair, then walked on. The hairs on the back of my neck stood up.

"Austin," I breathed when I met him at his locker, "she hates me. And she's going to do something to us, I just know it."

He pushed a loose strand of hair behind my ear. "Don't worry, Ally. I'll never leave you." He kissed my promise ring, and I blushed as he closed his locker and walked to his class. He was the sweetest.

I knew that Austin wouldn't leave me, and I didn't worry about that. But things started getting bad for me about three weeks later. Girls began giving me menacing looks in the halls. It was all too real when I saw Leah give me a true snicker. I just put down my head in shame, wondering what she had started.

I found out as I was trying to sleep the night before Austin and I were supposed to perform at one of his gigs.

Dez texted me.

ALLY! I can't believe you would do that!

I gulped and replied back:

Do what, Dez?

He replied:

Don't act like you don't know! You cheated on Austin!

I just stared at my screen. I hopelessly tried to comprehend what Dez was saying. Cheated on Austin? How dare her.

Dez, I think you know as well as I do that I wouldn't dare do that to him. I love Austin. Who told you that?

It took about five minutes before he replied:

Oh. Well, yeah I guess I do know that. Nobody really had to tell me because the whole school things you and Elliot did the deed at a party a couple of days ago.

I nearly dropped my phone on my face. ELLIOT?! Elliot that I had a crush on as a kid? No way. NOOO way. By "the deed" did he mean... Ugh! Ew. No, this was not happening.

I forget to reply to Dez's text as I frantically call Austin. He answers the phone sleepily.

"Austin!" I murmur.

"What is it, Ally?" He whispers, "It's two in the morning."

I can't hold back my sobs as I continue. "Dez texted me. Now I know what she's done. She told everyone I cheated on you with Elliot at a party."

He's silent for a moment. After what seems like forever, he finally replies, "Ally, it's okay. Don't worry. I know you didn't. We'll work things out. Just keep that purity ring on your finger and that chin up. Now's not the time to panic." He's quiet for another moment as a stray tear runs down my cheek. "I'm going to come over to your house. Is your dad home?"

I sniffle and reply, "Yeah. But he's asleep."

"Okay," he sighs, "I'll just be really quiet. I'll have to climb out my window. Be there in ten."

He hangs up.

My eyes are still puffy when he arrives and we silently creep up the stairs and lock my door. We lay in my bed, his arms around me. "It's okay, Ally." He repeats over and over, but I just can't comprehend his words. Finally I'm able to fall asleep.

When I wake up the next morning, he's gone, but he's right back in my driveway to take me to school.

I'm not sure if I'm ready to face the day.
