Austin's POV
BEEP BEEP BEEP
I groaned into my pillow as my alarm went off.
I spent all summer waking up at noon.
I stretched and rubbed my eyes.
maybe this year won't be all that bad...
ha. who was I kidding.
I got out of bed and started getting ready for school.
Ally's POV
I sighed as I looked at the view my balcony allowed.
before this year even started I wanted it to be over.
I was only starting my second year of high school. I was only a sophomore.
I took one last look at the view before heading back inside to get ready.
I quickly got dressed, slipping on a pair of skinny jeans, and pulling on a random shirt from my closet. I then threw a black hoodie on, and trotted down the stairs while brushing my hair.
once I got to the kitchen, I started to make breakfast for my dad and I.
when I finished, I heard my dad's footsteps coming down the stairs.
"good morning honey!" he said as I put his plate on the table.
"morning dad." I said plainly.
we ate together in silence, and when I was done I went back up to my room to brush my teeth and grab all my things.
when I was putting on my white converse, my dad approached me and gave me a hug.
he whispered in my ear, "have a good day at school." I nodded my head, and walked out the door.
I walked on the all too familiar sidewalk, all the way to Marino High.
but as I walked, I couldn't help but hear footsteps trailing behind me.
I turned around to see a guy who was much taller than me. he had a nice shade of brown eyes, and blonde hair.
"hi," he said to me with a smile.
"uh- hi..." I said back. "why are you following me?" I asked him.
"I'm not. I'm just walking to school and you happen to be walking in the same direction as me." he said and continued walking.
I shrugged, and before I knew it, he was talking again.
"I'm Austin." he said, and I nodded my head, not exactly wanting to talk right now.
"and what's yours?" he asked.
I looked up at him, just to see his brown eyes looking back at me.
"Ally." I said, and by then we were already at school.
I headed to my locker, not wanting to talk to anyone right now.
as I opened my locker, the first thing I saw was the picture.
emotions stirred up inside me, thoughts, memories running in my head.
I slammed my locker shut. then I bumped my forehead against the locker.
I closed my eyes, and I could feel my hair fall to the sides of my face.
then I felt something tap on my shoulder.
