Chapter 3: Keeping A Promise

Austin's POV

When I entered the cafeteria, it was packed like crazy. You know now that I think about it, where in the hell am I going to sit?

"Perché devo essere così stupido da pensare questo attraverso?" I scolded myself

Riker and I had to go undercover in Italy for over 2 years. In about 3 weeks, I already had an accent and spoke fluent Italian, as for Riker...it took him about 5 months, but he still learned it. It was actually an advantage that we learned Italian, do you know how many times Riker and I used Italian just to get out of things? Trust me, works every time.

Out of the corner of my eye, I saw Thomas stand up and walk over to me. This just gets better and better.

"Hey Moon, nice to see you" He said smirking

I raised an eyebrow "We just saw each other last period"

Out of the corner of my eye, I saw my old friends Trish, Dez…and Ally? She's back?

I shook my head "Forget it Austin, you shouldn't care about her anymore" I thought to myself "She'll just hurt you again"

Thomas started making his way towards me, but I stood my ground and stared at him, void of any emotion.

"I've been thinking Moon, we should just leave the past behind us and start new, not" I just ignored him and calmly walked around him and went to get my lunch. I suddenly felt a hand grab my arm and threw me at the cafeteria doors.

BANG!

A sound rippled around the room when the back of my head met the cool metal as I fell to the ground. I stood up and stuffed my hands in the front pockets of my jeans as if nothing happened.

"You done?" I asked as I raised an eyebrow

"Nope, I have years to make up ever since you mysteriously left" He said as he grabbed the collar of my jacket and threw me at a table that coincidently happened to be the one my…friends were sitting at. I sighed as I calmly stood up, turned around, and properly sat down on the seat as I faced the shocked faces of my friends.

"Sup" I nodded at them "I'm not done with you Moon" I rolled my eyes as I stood up and walked back over to him

"Do you mind, I have some catching up to do with Trish and Dez" I asked as I nodded my head at the table I was at

"What about that Dawson girl, Ally?"

"Who?" I knew it was harsh, but I seriously did not care

He nodded his head at the brunette girl that was sitting next to Trish and I turned my face to look at her. I looked her over and she has really changed. She was back in her old clothes and even died the tips of her hair blonde. She was my Ally again. I shook my head. What was I thinking? She may have changed back to who she was, but that doesn't mean that she could change the past and prevent what has happened.

I stopped to look in her eyes and saw she was already staring at me. Shock, curiosity, and happiness filled her doe brown eyes. I narrowed my eyes and glared at her harshly before I turned to look back at Thomas "Yea, I guess her too"

"Enough talking and more beating" I felt my stomach grumble and I stared at Thomas ""Can I at least get my food first?"

"You're just going to waste your money because after I'm done with you, you won't be able to feel your face anymore"

"Yea, Yea, Yea" I waved him off as I walked past him and went to get my food as the students followed my every movement

After I got my food, I walked past Thomas again and placed my tray which was occupied by an apple, a turkey sandwich, regular carton of milk, and a bag of Doritos at my friends and Ally's table. I really don't consider Ally as my friend anymore and nor will she ever be ever since that day. After I placed my food down, I grabbed the bag of chips, opened it, and walked back over to Thomas who was waiting impatiently.

I took out a chip and ate it "Okay, I'm ready"

He pulled his fist back and threw it but I moved my head at the last second and ate a chip. He went for another punch but I blocked it with my hand that was holding the bag of chips and took out another chip. He got angrier and angrier every time he went for a punch and I dodged it while I kept eating my chips. Don't blame me, I was hungry. After I finished my chips, I let him grab me and throw me into my table (Why does he keep throwing me into this table?) and when my back hit the table, I turned around, picked up the carton of milk and walked back over to my bully.

I opened the carton of milk and I took a sip "Can you finally punch me so I can eat in peace?"

He growled angrily and drew his arm back very slowly and went for a punch so fast, that no one could've seen it coming, but unfortunately since I'm an assassin, I did. I arched my back and bent backwards and I took a gulp of my milk while I saw his arm flew over me. When he withdrew his arm, I stood back up and raised an eyebrow at him.

"Stop moving Moon and let me punch you!"

From outside the cafeteria, I could hear the quiet footsteps and the soft chatters of the teachers approaching. I inwardly smirked.

"Alright then" He punched me right in the jaw and the whole cafeteria gasped

"Mr. Ziller!" I smirked "We would not tolerate your behavior towards a student especially a new one. Come down to my office" The principle said as Thomas followed glaring at me when he passed by

I walked over to my table and sat down and started eating the rest of my meal. I looked up to find my 2 friends staring at me.

"What?" I asked shrugging "Quel figlio di... coglione è cercata" I mumbled to myslef

"Dude that was awesome" Dez exclaimed "and that stunt you did at P.E too" He patted my back and I grinned at him

"Enough about me, I mean what about you? How you been?"

"I actually made it to senior year" Dez said "Though I wish you could've been here so I could brag about it"

I laughed "Sorry Dez, we both know that even though I struggled with grades back then, I'm still smarter than you"

"But what about now?"

I shrugged "Maybe" Oh, if only he knew

"Hey Austin" Trish said and I looked at her "Where did you even go to?"

The school that trains assassins back on a secret island in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean "Arizona"

"Tell us more later, Dez and I have an argument to attend to" I shook my head as Trish dragged a protesting Dez out the cafeteria

I smiled and continued eating

"Hi Austin" I stopped and slowly glanced up at the brunette in front of me "It's good your back, we've missed you" Ally said quietly

"Thanks" I said blankly and continued eating

"How you been these past years" She asked

"Best decision I ever made leaving this place. The only thing I regret is leaving my best friends" She smiled a little "Wish I could've been able to take Trish and Dez with me"

She frowned as her eyes showed sadness. I know I'm being a jerk, but if it prevents us from being friends again, then so be it.

"Anyway" I got up and picked up my empty tray "Gotta go" I tossed my tray and exited the cafeteria

Once the doors closed behind me, I sighed. I missed Ally, I missed the times we had before hell took over, I missed how I could talk to her about anything, overall I just wanted to be friends and start over again.

"But" I shook my head "I remember making her a promise, a promise to always protect her no matter what" I started walking towards my next class

"And by staying away from her, I'm keeping that promise"

Again, I'm sorry I kept you guys waiting for an update, I'll try and update sooner because sooner the better right? Anyway the Italian phrases Austin spoke, I just translated on Google. Anyway here's a preview of chapter 4!

A&A&A&A&A&A&A&A&A&A&A&A

"Austin Moon, is that really you?" I rolled my eyes "Where have you been?"

"Around" I shrugged as I starting heading towards the back of the classroom

A&A&A&A&A&A&A&A&A&A&A&A

I suddenly got a feeling that if someone was watching us, watching me. I stopped walking as did Trish, Dez, and Ally. I examined the area around us, not missing a single detail.

"Are you okay Austin" Ally said softly

I ignored her and kept scanning the area, I then heard a deep intake of breath from behind me. My eyes narrowed slightly, but I pretended that I heard nothing and faced the three.

"It's nothing you should worry about" I told Ally

A&A&A&A&A&A&A&A&A&A&A&A

"GET DOWN!" I yelled as I pushed Ally to the ground
