Annie's POV

"Austin can we go back in?" After the pictures he took me outside and we were hanging around his friends. I didn't really talk that much but they kind of made me feel uncomfortable.

"Yeah, sure."

We walk inside and everyone's filing back outside to go to the after party, I forgot about that. The after party is only cast members so I left Austin and went to talk to Riley.

Everyone's kind of in different groups at the party. Me, Riley, Indi, and Brooke are standing near the entrance. Mads is currently talking to her boyfriend, Caden. She looks pretty mad and Caden looks really stressed out but it's not my business, so I look away.

And the boys are bowling. I find myself constantly trying to know where Hayden is. Whenever I find him I would look at him for a couple of seconds and then look away before he realizes.

He's laughing and having fun like he's been carefree his entire life. I, on the other hand, am still worrying about filming season 3.

Soon it's just Riley and me talking about random stuff like always. Riley keeps glancing behind me with a worried face but I ignore it. Soon I see some other people looking there too so I turn around. Austin's here yelling and cussing at someone. Oh my god, can he not hang out with his other friends?

I somehow feel like this is my responsibility because according to Austin we're 'dating' even though he's like my best friend. I walk up to him and realized who he's yelling at.

"Austin what are you doing here?" I ask.

"Just making sure no one is going to steal my girlfriend" he replies while staring down the boy in front of him.

"Austin, I am NOT your girlfriend" I state.

At this point the boy in front of Austin looks really confused. Everyone's watching this little fight and some are even recording it. Fake fuckers.

"B-but you said you loved me." He looked hurt.

"I do love you Austin but-"

"Then what did you mean when you said you loved me more than friends?" I seriously feel bad now but I need to put him in his place.

"We're BEST friends?"

He stormed out of the building and my eyes met with the eyes of the boy Austin was yelling at.

"Annie, can we talk?" Hayden asks.
