Crush On You {Ausmila} {Delayed Updates}

chapter fourteen

I built my walls up high
But now they're falling and you're the reason why
And with you I'm not alone
Cause you are the one I've waited for
But my heart's been locked away
I hid inside just so I'd feel safe
I'll give in, won't be afraid
Cause you are the one I've waited for

I stared at the lyrics I had written down in my journal before class started. It's like whenever I get stuck on a verse or have writer's block, I think back on all the memories I had with Camila, then I'm inspired to finish up the song. Camila is the inspiration for most of my songs and I've planned to show her one, but it has to be just right and perfect. I don't want to screw everything up and if I do this, I'm just hoping she'll feel somewhat the same way.

I looked up when I noticed Ally coming through the door. What is she doing here? She's in Calculus and AP Stats, I think. She made her way over to Mr. MItchell's desk and was talking about something to him.

Must be discussing about being a TA...

"Austin!" Ally exclaimed when she noticed me.

"Hey Ally," I responded, "What are you doing here?"

"Oh, I asked Mr. Mitchell if I could be his TA for this period," she said taking the desk next to me.

"You're kidding, right?" I said out loud, quickly covering my mouth with my hands.

Ally looked somewhat flabbergasted, "No, he's one of my favorite teachers here." Her eyes shift towards my journal, "Whatcha writing?"

"Nothing..." I closed it, putting it inside my binder, "So have you seen-"

Right as it was on cue, Camila walks into the classroom... with Jackson.

Of course. Why am I not surprised?

I rolled my eyes at the sight of him and make it look like I was ready to pay attention today, which my mind won't be able to focus, as always.

"Hey Austin," Camila smiled as she sat down at her desk.

"Hey Camila," I looked up with a small smile.

Jackson puts his arm around me, "Hey buddy," he said with a fake smile.

I looked up and just glared at him. I'm in no mood right now...nor am I in the mood anyways when it comes to him.

"So Mahone," Jackson said snapping me out of my thoughts, "Are you going to be at the basketball tryouts after school?"

"I don't know, Guthy." I sat up in my seat, "I never had intentions on trying out, so probably not."

"Austin, I think you should." I turned my head to the side and it was Camila on who said it, "Basketball is your favorite sport and you're pretty good, so I think you should try out because you'll definitely make it," she said with a smile.

I looked down at my desk and couldn't help but smile.

"Yeah Austin, you should try out," Jackson mimicked in Camila's tone but Camila being her oblivious self didn't catch his sarcastic tone.

I leaned back in my seat and thought about trying out. Basketball is my sport, but last time I played on a team was in 9th grade. When I do play in my free time, it helps clear my mind so joining the team wouldn't be such a bad thing.

"Know what?" I said, propping my elbows on the desk, "I will try out so thanks Jackson."

"Awesome. I'll see you there," Jackson said with a smirk before hitting my back as hard as he can, "Buddy."
