Just Another Bad Boy
Austin's POV
I can't believe I asked her out, I mean it wasn't a date but you get what I mean. I could think of plenty reason's not to invite her. She's annoyingly cute, perfectly obnoxious and…wait where am I going with this? I felt a cold liquid running down my hand, I looked down to see that I was still pouring my milk in my cup. I grabbed a napkin and cleaned it up losing my appetite to eat or drink anything else. "Hey Austin." I heard voice. I turned around to see Taylor with a coat in her and a skateboard. "Hey how was Kalie's?" I asked leaning on the counter. "Her names Lily and yes it was fun." Taylor said laying her skateboard on the side of the wall and going to the fridge pulling out some orange juice. "How was Ally last night was she complaining about how I left for Lily's house?" she asked pouring the juice inside a cup. "Yeah it was fine we watched a movie together it was fun but then she fell asleep so I had to spend the rest of my night alone." I said sadly. But I was happy a bit, Ally and I actually bonded last night and it was a great feeling to have. "That's great I'm going to go check on her." She said drinking the rest of her juice and going up the stairs.
Taylor's POV
I walked up the stairs and went into Ally's room to find that she was on her bed reading a book. "Hey Ally." I said jumping right on the bed. "Hey Tay what's up?" she asked not taking her eyes off the book. "Ally lets go out and do something fun today!" I said excitingly. I really wanted to make up for ditching Ally yesterday I felt really bad about it. "No thanks Taylor." She said flipping a page. Wait did she just say no to her best friend? "Ally look I'm really sorry about leaving you yesterday." I said apologetically. I can't believe she was still mad about this. "No Tay it's alright I can't go with you because Austin said we could go shopping for the party tonight well actually I texted him because I didn't want to go downstairs. This book is amazing!" Ally said continuing to read her book. I felt a twinge of anger and jealousy. Was I jealous of Austin hanging out with my best friend? No that can't be… "You ok Tay?" Ally asked disturbing my thoughts. "Yeah I'm fine, I've got to go." I said getting off her bed and going into my room slamming the door shut.
Ally's POV
It was finally time to leave for the mall. I quickly got out of bed laying my book on the table and running into the bathroom with a towel. I took a quick shower and dried off. I grabbed my blow dryer and dried my hair while slipping on floral pink top with dark blue skinny jeans. I curled my hair with a curler and added some chap stick with stud earrings. I don't know why I was going all out to go the mall. I slipped on some flats and walked out grabbing my wallet and putting it in my back pocket. I ran downstairs to see Austin in the dining room, he looked different than the way he's looked before. He wore a purple collared shirt with tan jeans and yellow high tops. "Wow Austin nice look." I blurted out. Did I really say that? "Ha ha very funny, I just look good because one of my old friends is going to be at the mall." Austin said grabbing his keys as I followed him out the door. "Old friend?" I asked suspiciously. "Ok well she's just my ex-girlfriend but we became really close friends so don't make me look like an idiot ok?" he asked unlocking his car and jumping right in. I got in the passenger seat and buckled up. "Why do you wear a seatbelt?" he asked starting the car. "Maybe because I want too, and plus it's for safety. You're not the best driver in the world Austin." I said as we backed up down the hill and onto the road.
"Wow Ally vicious much?" he teased me. We finally arrived in the mall parking lot parking right in the front as usual. I got out of the car and we walked to the front entrance. We walked in and walked right over to the food court, "Wow Austin we just ate." I said sticking my tongue out. "Joyel said she would be here where the heck is that woman?" Austin said impatiently. "Austin calm down she'll be here just chillax." I said calmly. "Don't ever say chillax again." Austin said deeply. I rolled my eyes and sighed as we stood there for another 5 minutes. "Ugh I am not waiting for her!" Austin said walking away. "Austin!?" we both turned around to see a girl with deep dark brown/ black hair, her skin perfectly glowed she was really pretty. "Joy?!" Austin said happily. I swear that was the first time I've actually seen him have a sincere smile on his face. He ran over to her spinning her around in the air and giving her an obvious tight hug. "I haven't seen you in like forever!" Joy said happily hugging Austin. He looked so happy with her, was it bad I felt a bit sad? I stood there awkwardly as they began talking about their life and how it was going. I felt a bit secluded but it was nothing surprising it's not like I haven't been secluded from anything before. "Oh yeah sorry, um this is Ally my probably soon to be step-sisters best friend." He said introducing me. "Hi…" I said shyly. "I'm Joyel but you can totally call me Joy." She went up to me and gave me a hug out of nowhere. She seemed really nice and I liked her a lot. "I invited one of my friends to come if you didn't know that." Joyel said pulling out her iPhone. "But Joy I wanted to hang out with my two best girls." Austin whined. Was it wrong to think Austin's whining is kind of cute? "Oh just chillax Austin it's only Hayleigh…and Lisa, Kellyanne and Hannah…" Joy said under her breath.
Austin's POV
"You invited your whole gang!? Joyel!" I yelled softly tapping my foot, I really wanted to spend some time with Joy and Ally they were after all my best friends other than the boys I hang out with. "Austin I promised them come on please?" She begged and I just gave in. "Fine but I'm not buying anything for them." I said annoyed. "Thanks Austin." Joy said to me and kissed my cheek. I felt my cheeks turn a bright red and I just shoved my hands in my pocket. "Yeah whatever." I looked over to see Ally giving me a strange look I just shrugged and looked down. Did I still have feelings for Joy I really didn't know, her coming back has just brought back the good memories of us being together. Suddenly four girls came over to Joy surrounding her in a huge hug. I looked at Ally and she just gave me a confused look. "OK so this is Hayleigh, Kellyanne, Hannah and Lisa." She said sweetly. They all gave me a shy smile and I nervously smiled back. "Thanks for letting us come Austin." Kellyanne said shyly. "No problem." I said plainly. "Who's she?" Lisa asked pointing to Ally. "Oh this is Ally one of my…friends?" I said questioningly I didn't really know what Ally was to me. She smiled sweetly and girls smiled back. "Ok so I heard about this new shop called Wet Seal." Lisa said excitingly. Oh great another girl shop by the time I come out I'll probably be covered in girls deep red lipstick…again. I sighed and followed the girls as Ally walked next to me. "They seem really nice." Ally said sweetly. "Yeah they do I guess." I said. "Is this because they're here Austin I know you wanted time to be alone with Joy but at least she's here." Ally said as we walked into the shop. "It's not that Ally it's just this shop I hate girl shopping especially since I'm a guy." I said pointing to myself.
Ally just laughed and went on with the girls as I sat in a chair that was a bit uncomfortable, see in a guy's shop they have comfortable chairs with skeletons on it not a pink chair with flowers and sunshine's on it. I groaned in uncomfortable silence as the girls ran around the shop looking for some stupid outfit for the party. I invited Joy to the party when she told me she was coming to Florida for half of the summer, I guess she invited her friends too. Suddenly Hayleigh came up to me and sat in the chair next to me. "Hey I'm Hayleigh." She said holding out her hand. I sighed and shook it as we sat in a bit of awkward silence. "You like Ally don't you." She said suddenly. I stood up out of my chair as my face turned a dark red/pink color. "W-what are you talking about?" I asked stuttering. "I see the way you look at her." Hayleigh said smiling softly. "Look Hayleigh Ally's cool but I do not like her that way." I said fast-like. She gave me a look as if saying get-real. "Ugh don't give me that look." I said laughing a bit. Hayleigh was really fun to hang out with she was cool calm and collected. She laughed with me holding her stomach a bit, "Well I do know she does feel the same way." She said. "Are you a fortune-teller or something?" I asked feeling a smile tug at my lips. "Nope but I'm really good at telling people's expression by their eyes." She said sweetly. "Ok then what is that girls expression?" I asked pointing to a random girl in the store. "Uh well she looks worried I can tell by the way she's tapping her foot and holding her bag." She said with ease. My mouth dropped and I couldn't believe she was that good. "It's not a power Austin, it's just an emotion people feel." Hayleigh said with a little laugh. "Close your mouth no one wants to see that." She said smiling. "You're pretty cool." I said smiling back at her. She shrugged and laid back stretching out her legs. "Thanks blondie." She said getting back up. I shook my head smiling, she was very interesting.
Suddenly Lisa came up to me with a pink dress which was laced in the back with a black belt. "Hey Austin what do you think?" She said holding up the pink dress and then a navy dark blue one with a yellow belt. I stroke my chin imagining I had an imaginary beard making her laugh a bit. "I'm being serious!" She said sticking her tongue out at me. "I like the pink one it really brings out your eyes." I said sweetly. "It really does." I turned to see Elliot, Trent and Jake. I saw Lisa blush and give him a smile before running back towards the girls. "Flirt much?" I said to Elliot. "What dude she's pretty." He said putting a hand on his heart. "You think every girls pretty." I said getting real. "Not every girl…just look at Lady Gaga she's got the resemblance of a frying pan." Trent said leaning against the store window. I just laughed at his stupid comment and got up out of the uncomfortable chair. "Hey Austin I'm just going to pair a jeans. I've already got a shirt so that's what I'm going to wear to the party." Ally said laying down in the uncomfortable chair. "Ok princess." I said winking. She smiled and rolled her eyes. "Wait that's Ally the girl you li-" I covered Jake's mouth before he could say anything else. I pulled him in the back of the store slapping him hard on the shoulder. "What the heck!" he said as I gave him another hard slap again. "Stop!" he yelled grabbing my wrist. "If you so much as tell anything about our talk a day ago I will personally trash your car to shreds." I said deathly. He nodded and I yanked my hands out of his grip as we walked back to the guys. As we made our way there Trent was bragging about one of his packed action moments. "And so I was like dude leave my girl alone and he was all like no and I was like big mistake and then he was like bring it and I ran over to him slamming him against the brick wall and then he was like damn dude let me go and I was like tough knuckles punk and then he was lik-"
"Ok Trent we get it…" I said cutting him off.
Ally's POV
I was really happy Austin stopped Trent from going any further it was staring to get a bit annoying. "Hey Ally can we talk?" Joy said. I nodded and got up walking over to her. "Hey Joy what's up?" I said sitting down on one of the bean bag chairs. "Oh nothing it's just well let me just say it…do you like Austin?" she asked. Well I don't know why I would he's arrogant, mean, nice, sweet, charming…wait Ally stay on topic! "I mean I don't really know actually…" I said shyly. "It's ok Ally you don't have to tell me I understand but I just want you to know if you need anything you can always come to me here's my number." She said pulling a note out of her back pocket. I smiled and hugged her sweetly, I wish everybody was this nice. "So do you have an outfit for the party tonight?" she asked me. "Yeah it's just a casual pair of jeans and a shirt." I said nicely. She gave me a stare saying 'seriously'? "What…?" I asked getting a bit nervous. "Ally this is a summer party not a book club meeting you need to wear a dress!" she said excitingly. "Well I do have a sky blue mini dress that Austin bought for me but I don't know about wearing it to a party." I said. "You so have to wear it!" she said smiling. "Yeah you tote's have too!" we heard a voice from behind the wall. "Hannah were you eavesdropping on our conversation?" Joy said laughing. "Well duh." Hannah said squatting down and smiling at me. "I honestly think you should wear that dress maybe you should call us over before the party so we can take a vote!" Hannah said sweetly. These girls are so amazing I wish Taylor would be as fun as Hannah and Joy were. "Well I'll call Joy and she can invite you guys over." I said happily.
"Sweet!" Hannah said nicely. We all stood up having a quick little group hug. "Operation make Ally hot is a go!" Joy said smiling. I just smiled laughing a bit. "Operation what?" Austin said as we walked back over to the guys. "Oh nothing…" Hannah said giving me a wink. "Obviously they are hiding something." Hayleigh said out of nowhere. "I told you guys she was a fortune-teller!" Austin said pointing at her. She just rolled her eyes as Lisa joined in with the laughter. "You don't know what we're laughing about don't you?" Joy said putting a hand on her hip. "No not a clue." We all bursted out laughing. Maybe this summer wasn't going to be as awful as I thought at first. "Well I think it was cute." Elliot said winking at her. I saw her blush and I just smiled as she looked anywhere but his eyes. "T-thanks." She said shyly. I saw Hannah looking at Jake as I he flipped his brown locks of hair. I secretly snapped my fingers at her and laughed a bit. "Having fun there?" I teased and she just gave me a look. "Oh be quiet, he's just really cute that's all." She said trying to keep her eyes off of him. "Don't worry Hannah its ok to like someone." I said sweetly. The real question I needed to ask myself was, was it alright if I wanted to like Austin…
