Author's note: the idea for this one shot comes from, Sonita (tbh_laura on twitter)! Thanks girl! If you guys ever have any ideas for one shots for episodes I haven't already written one for, PLEASE don't be afraid to tell me by leaving it as a review, PMing me, or tweeting it to me IThinkAboutCoss. Your ideas might just end up as a one shot! :)

Austin lie awake in bed, unable to fall asleep; his mind just wouldn't turn off.

It had been a crazy day. He turned himself orange, he ate the hottest pepper in the world and sweated enough to fill an entire bathtub, and Ally admitted she had a crush on the cell phone accessory cart guy on the mall's jumbo-tron.

Austin had thought Ally was writing about him in her book, but she was actually writing about Dallas.

Whew, what a relief, right?

Right?

Austin sighed, rolling over to lay on his other side.

Why did he feel like this?

He didn't want Ally to have a crush on him, did he?

When he found out she wasn't writing about him, but about Dallas, he thought he was relieved; but now he almost feels upset that she wasn't writing about him.

He had never thought of him and Ally linked in a romantic way.

What would it be like?

He began to imagine what it would be like if he and Ally were a couple- WHAT?! NO!

That would be WEIRD.

Ally is his friend!

He and Ally would never work as a couple! They're two different people!

"Opposites attract" his brain reminded him.

What is he even doing?

He doesn't want to date Ally!

They're just friends!

He would never want to risk the great friendship they had for something as silly as "feelings".

Austin rolled over again, as sleep finally began to overtake him.

He and Ally hadn't known each other that long, so maybe some feelings will develop in the future. Even if that happens, he will push them down and keep them in because he does not wanna risk his friendship with Ally for anything.

Feelings can't be that strong, right?

They aren't strong enough to make him do something stupid; that'd be CRAZY.

Oh Austin, if only you knew what was coming. ;)

reviews make me happy :)
