Chapter 3 - I Knew You Were Trouble

Ally's POV:

Why is Austin here? After that party, I didn't think I'd see him again. Well, except for when he's with my sister, because, as I keep reminding myself, they are a couple. He is her boyfriend, and he was drunk the other night. He was hitting on me because he was drunk, that's it. He doesn't have any romantic feelings for me. I mean, he's older than me, and also he is my sister's boyfriend! How many times do I have to keep telling myself that before I actually accept that and forget about my developing feelings for him?!

"Ally?" Austin's voice drags me out of my daydream.

"Huh?" I mumble, a bit confused.

"You spaced out a bit there, are you okay?" he asks me.

"Y-yeah, I'm fine," I lie, quite unconvincingly. "What are you doing here?" I quickly question, deciding to change the subject.

"Just got a bit of a hangover from last night and decided to come out and get some fresh air..." he replies.

"Oh." Should I bring up how he hit on me or should I just forget about it? I then start thinking about last night and how he was flirting with me and how if Avalon didn't stumble over to us, then he might have made a move on me.

Once upon a time,
A few mistakes ago,
I was in your sights,
You got me alone,
You found me,
You found me,
You found me-e-e-e-e

Is he one of those bad boy players who thinks that they can get any girl? Because if he is, then Avalon deserves to know. I don't even know why I didn't tell her this morning about how her boyfriend flirted with me. Well, maybe it's because if I had told her, she wouldn't have believed me anyway. From the way she always talks about Austin, you can tell that she adores him and would believe him over me any day.

"Ally!" I hear Austin say, making me snap out of my thoughts. I stare at him, wide-eyed. "You zoned out again," he tells me.

"Oh..." My cheeks turn a light shade of red, and I look down as I continue to swing back and forth back and forth. "What was you saying?" I ask him.

"I was just asking why you're here," he replies.

"Oh. Well, I usually come here to think about things and to clear my head," I tell him.

"And that's what you're doing here now?" he questions.

"Yeah," I say.

He stays silent for a second, before he speaks up, "A-are you thinking about last night?" he asks me, quietly.

His questions surprises me a bit. "Um... Well, maybe..." I reply.

He sighs. "Ally, I didn't mean to flirt with you. I was drunk, and I'm so sorry if I made you think that I'm some kind of player who would cheat on your sister, because I wouldn't."

"You say that, but what if Avalon hadn't have came over to us? Would you have tried to make a move on me? Because it seemed like it," I say.

"Look, as I said before, I was drunk. I wasn't thinking straight, and if I had made a move on you, it would've been because I was drunk."

I roll my eyes. "So you admit that you would've cheated on my sister if she didn't come over?"

"No... Well, I don't know, okay?!" he exclaims. "You haven't told her about last night, have you?"

I stand up from the swing, and look at him with my arms folded over my chest. "No, I didn't. Not because I knew you wouldn't want me to, but because I know that if she found out that her boyfriend flirted with her sister, she would be so upset and it would be partly my fault."

He sighs in relief. "Thanks..."

I don't reply, I just begin to walk away.

"Oh, and this isn't your fault, but the way. It's my fault. I was the one who flirted with you," he calls after me, making me stop in my tracks.

I turn to face him. "Yes, it is your fault. But it would be my fault if I made her upset, because I'd be the one that told her that her boyfriend almost cheated on her!"

"Okay, no need to shout..." he mumbles. "Why are you so annoyed, anyway? I apologised and you know I only flirted with you because I was drunk!"

"I'm annoyed because you don't seem to care about my feelings! All you care about is yourself!" I state.

"I don't just care about myself, I care about Av! I don't want her finding out about this because I know how much it will hurt her!" he shouts, standing up from the swings and walking over to me. "You liked having the attention from me, and you know it! But guess what?! I don't like you, and I never will!" And with that, he storms off.

I guess you didn't care,
And I guess I liked that,
And when I fell hard,
You took a step back,
Without me,
Without me,
Without me-e-e-e-ee

His words hurt. I try so hard not to let the tears fall down my face. The guy I thought I was developing romantic feelings for just told me that he doesn't like me and he never will. I guess he's right... I did like the attention from him... maybe I liked the attention more than I liked him. I mean, he's not exactly the nicest guy I've met. He's a player, it's obvious.

But I can't help the butterflies that I feel just thinking about him. Why don't I care that he doesn't like me? Maybe I like the fact that he is a bit of a bad boy... Ugh. He's my sister's boyfriend! Liking him in more than a friend way isn't right! Imagine how Avalon would feel if she found out about my feelings for her boyfriend...

And he's long gone,
When he's next to me,
And I realise,
The blame is on me

I start walking home, memories from a few minutes ago replaying in my mind. How Austin seemed spaced out when he sat on the swing next to me. He was obviously trying to clear his head because he felt guilty about what happened last night.

That made me feel sort of bad. I mean, I shouted at him, saying that all he cared about was himself, but I now realise that he doesn't want Avalon finding out about him flirting with me because it would hurt her. He didn't want to see his girlfriend upset, and he didn't want to be the reason for her being upset, either.

I sigh. Despite what Austin said, I still feel like this is partly my fault. I mean, even though I know that Austin is Av's boyfriend, I can't help but still have these feelings for him. And if I didn't have these feelings for him, then I could just forget about this and move on. But I can't.

Also, if I didn't let Trish drag me to that party, then none of this would be happening. Now whenever I see Austin, I'm going to have to act like everything is okay.

'Cause I knew you were trouble when you walked in,
So shame on me no-ow,
Flew me to places I'd never been,
'Til you put me down, oh

I know that he's a player, even if he doesn't think he is. It's obvious. I started thinking that as soon as he started flirting with me. And then Avalon came over and said that he was her boyfriend... That's when I realised that he's a player, a bad boy, and that he flirted with me, even though he had a girlfriend.

I liked the fact that he was flirting with me, though. I was quite surprised because someone actually showed interest in me. I've never had a boyfriend, so someone flirting with me was new to me. He made me feel special, almost. But of course, maybe it was just because he's the first guy who ever flirted with me.

But then he said that he doesn't like me, and that he never will. I can't believe I got my hopes up; that I thought, even for a second, that there was a possibility that he liked me back. Of course he doesn't! What was I thinking?

'I knew you were trouble when you walked in,
So shame on me no-ow,
Flew me to places I'd never been,
Now I'm lying on the cold, hard ground

I stopped walking and sighed. No matter how much I try to convince myself that he doesn't like me, there will still be this tiny piece of hope that maybe he might like me back, and that he only said that he doesn't like me to convince himself more than me.

Why am I thinking about this? I'm just getting my hopes up, like I always do. I know I shouldn't like him, but I do.

That's when the tears that I was holding back start to flow down my face. I collapse onto the floor, silently sobbing. Why did I have to like my sister's boyfriend?! This is just so confusing... Someone is going to get hurt, and it's most likely going to be me. I don't want to see my sister upset, so I will just have to keep my feeling for Austin to myself.

Oh, oh,
Trouble, trouble, trouble,

Oh, oh,
Trouble, trouble, trouble!

So, what do you think? Review!

Stay Rossome!
