Another Love Story?

Chapter 2

Austin POV

Where is she!!?? She's such a slow walker!! Mr. Jonson is probably gonna make us run for being late to detention. But oh well, I like being with her. She's so pretty. Of course, she doesn't see it but shes honestly beautiful. She has long, wavy, dirty blonde hair, brown eyes and a pretty nice tan. She's super short though. Like she's literally only 4'8. My mom trys to get me to ask her out because she thinks we would be cute together but I don't wanna ruin our 10 year friendship. Anyway, that's her walking up right now.

" What took you so long?!"

"Sorry, my locker wouldn't open.."

I grabbed her bag off her shoulder and we headed to the detention room. As soon as we walked in, Mr. Jonson sent us to the track.

"So.. how was your day??" I questioned to get a conversation going.

"Boring, as usual. Anyway what cover are you gonna put up tonight?"

I post covers on YouTube, thanks to the help of Alex. Paytynn usually helped me pick the song.

"I don't know, what song do you think I should do?"

"How bout my song? You promised you would someday do a cover for it!!" She pleaded with her bottom lip stuck out.

"Are you sure? I mean it is your song"

" Yeaa, So what??... Nobody will know but us."

"Ok, but i"m dedicating it to you"

"NO!!"

"Why not?"

"Because, That will ruin the point. Now sing it"

She can be so demanding at times, she's not bitchy about it or anything, it's just her personality. I guess you could say she's strongly opinionated..

I started singing her song, "The A Team". We were sitting under the bleachers. I noticed we were getting very close and I wasn't gonna stop it. Our faces were inches away. I reached my hands up to the sides of her face and of course, my phone went off. If it was anyone else, I would've ignored it. But it just HAD to be my mom.

Austin: "hey mom, what's up"

Mom; "When are you coming home?"

Austin; "when my detention is over"

Mom; "when is that?"

Austin: "like 30 minutes.."

Mom:"ok, love you, see you soon"

Austin: "yepp, love you too, bye"

I hung up and dropped my phone on the ground. We sat there awkwardly for the next 20 minutes. I can't believe I almost kissed her. Would she have stopped if my mom didn't call? What if she didn't like it and she never wanted to talk to me? Man, I really need to stop over thinking things. I stood up and helped Pay up and we started walking home, our houses weren't that far away so it wasn't that bad.

" Sorry about what, uhh, almost happened back there, I don't know what I was doing.."

" It's ok, I'm not complaining! haha"

" Austin!!"

" What!! Think about it Paytynn, any guy would LOVE to kiss you, all my friends are jealous because you're my best friend and I get to hang out with you all the time"

" you're lying!!"

" No I'm not, I promise!!"

We both turned our separate ways, Paytynn's house was 3 blocks over. We used to live right next door but her dad wanted more land so they moved but Pay made sure they stayed close.

"I'M STILL DEDICATING THAT SONG TO YOU!!"

"WHATEVER MAHONE!"

That's the last thing I heard before I walked into my house.

*Paytynn's POV*

I had just turned down my street and was about 4 houses down, the yards were pretty big so it was longer than you would expect. shoving my headphones in my ears, I turned on my playlist of favorite songs. I noticed a car speeding down the street, and he wasn't driving the straightest. So I got off the road and started walking in the grass. I had a habit of tripping over my own feet so I was looking down which isn't the best choice when you can't hear because I looked up right when that car was inches away, and before I knew it, I was up by a neighbors porch when I blacked out.
