Just Another Bad Boy

Ally's POV

I sat at my desk flipping through a magazine, it's been a week since Austin got out of the hospital. Did I mention he's been ignoring me ever since the day his room got trashed to pieces. I hope he doesn't think I did that, who would do such a thing to Austin. I turned around in my chair laying my head back to collect my thoughts. He's been so suspicious ever since that day, I even helped him with his room and since then he's been nothing but distant. It's kind of annoying if you think about it. You help someone and in return you get their respect and loyalty, but with Austin all you get is silence. I sighed and got up out of the chair opening the door to the smell of fresh spaghetti for dinner. A smile tugged at my lips as I walked down the stairs and to my dismay there was Austin stirring the pasta noodles. He looked over at me and quickly put his eyes back on the pot of bowling pasta. That's it. "What is your problem!" I snapped at him. His eyes never left the pasta bowl as he kept on stirring. My body raged with anger, how could he treat me like this I thought we were friends! I walked over and slapped right on the face, he let out a groan of pain not looking into my eyes and that's when it hurt. "I can't believe you're ignoring me after I thought we were friends Austin! You've been so quiet and silent ever since the day you got home!" I yelled as I felt like crying. I didn't know why but it was hard to actually get over this. "Can you just go please?" he asked gritting his teeth. "Why are you being such a jerk to me all of a sudden!" I yelled again demanding an answer. "Why should I have to listen to you!" he argued back as he slammed his fist on the counter. This was a side of Austin I haven't seen since I snuck in his room. "Huh Ally why tell me why!?" he barked as his face turned cherry red. I was taken back I didn't know what to say, he just blew up right in my face and it scared the heck out of me.

He got closer to me as I stepped back. "Just go away." He said looking me deeply in the eyes and I knew right then and there that he meant it. "I'm not going until you tell me why you are being so distant from me." I said standing my ground, I wasn't going to let him get his way that easily. "Leave me alone will you!" he yelled as frantically waved his arms. "I don't need to tell you anything so just shut up and get out of my face." He said and that's when I felt like he snapped me into two pieces. I ran upstairs before I let any tears slide, I opened my door slamming it shut. I ran over to my bed and just sat there letting tears slide down my cheek. I can't believe Austin said that to me back there it was as if a whole other side of him blew up in my face. My phone rang and I opened it wiping away my tears, "Hello?" I asked as my voice cracked. "Hey Ally it's Hayleigh I got your number from Joy." She said sweetly. "Oh that's cool." I said lamely. "What's wrong?" she asked and my body froze up, I couldn't tell her what happened between me and Austin as much as I trust her I just can't really tell anyone right now. "Nothing I just tripped and my knee hurts really badly." I said lying to her. I hated lying to her she was such an amazing person but I had to. "If you say so…" she said and I knew she was lying about believing me but I guess she let it slide this time. "Ok well I'll go I'll call you later?" she asked me. "Yup." I said as we said our goodbyes. I closed my phone and sat it on the table as I laid back on my bed looking up at the ceiling. Why was Austin being so distant from me, did I say something to him? Or does he just flat out don't like me? Yeah it's probably the first one, I sighed and got off the bed walking into the bathroom. I splashed my face with cold water and dried my face off throwing the towel back on the counter. I walked out and jumped back on my bed grabbing my phone as the door open. I expected it to be Austin but it was just Taylor not that I wasn't excited or anything. "Hey Ally." Taylor said as she came over and sat on my bed. She gave me a tight squeeze as I hugged her back. "Where have you been I didn't even see you at the party a week ago." I said sadly. I wanted to hang out with my best friend but she was always busy apparently. "Oh I was at Lily's house." She said easily. Something about her tone was throwing me off.

"Why were you at Lily's?" I asked. "She wanted me to spend the night at her house and I said yes." She said playing with the bed sheets. "You haven't spent any time with me since we've gotten here." I said sadly. I was right for once, we haven't done anything together she's always with Lily and I think I'm being replaced. "I know Ally and I'm sor-" she said but was cut off by the sound of her phone ringing. She looked at her screen her eyes went wide, "What's wrong?" I asked getting worried. "Oh it's nothing one of my friends just went into surgery I have to go." She said getting off the bed. Something about this just didn't add up, she just got back from Lily's and now she's leaving again it's like she wants me to spend my summer alone. "Ugh, ok bye I guess." I said as she closed my door on the way out. I looked on at the floor and saw a container right next to my bed, I got up and went over to it. I picked it up and examined it, observing it closely. It was a powdery substance and it had the word Mescaline on it in big letters. Mescaline is a very powerful drug that can blur a person's vision, why would Taylor have that kind of drug in her possession? I walked over and hid it in my dresser closing it shut. Things were getting creepy, I was getting nervous…was Taylor on drugs or something? No she would never do that… I ran my fingers through my hair as I groaned. Why aren't the pieces coming together at all? I sighed and opened my door walking heading for the stairs but I stopped myself at Taylor's room. I stepped back and opened her door quietly, I didn't want Austin to know I was snooping but I had to find out what Taylor was doing with Mescaline. I closed the door behind me, locking it. I went over to her bed and looked under the pillows still nothing there. I went over to her dresser rummaging through it but still nothing was in sight. Now if I was Taylor where would I be hiding my things… the idea popped in my head and I went through her suitcase. Inside I found a book and instruction booklet on how to make drinks and mix them. Why would she have a booklet on how to make drinks…? I sighed in frustration as I slammed the booklet back inside her suitcase. This absolutely making no sense, she's my best friend she wouldn't be taking drugs that's just… "What are you doing in here." I looked over to see Austin with an angry look right on his face. "I was just looking for my… blow dryer she took it a couple days ago." I said lying to his face and for some reason he didn't buy it. "Why are you really in here." He said as his tone got darker. I sighed and walked over grabbing his arm and dragging him into my room. "Ally let me go." He said annoyed. I knew he would be against this since what happened in the kitchen turned out bad but he just needed to hear me out. I went through my dresser looking for the bottled drug but I couldn't find it. "It was right here!" I said still searching through my dresser. "What are you talking about?" Austin said impatiently. "There was this drug I found on the floor as Taylor walked out of my room, it said Mescaline on it I stored it in my dresser and now it's gone!" I said and I could feel that he wanted to laugh as he thought this was just a joke. "So what you're saying is Taylor your best friend may I add is taking drugs?" he asked crossing his arms. "No I don't be-" "Then why are you convicting her of doing it." He said cutting me off. I shrugged as I didn't know what else to say… "Are we done here?" he asked turning around. I nodded as he slipped out the door. "It was right here." I thought to myself… I wasn't seeing things it was right there I was absolutely sure of it or was I going insane…?
