Chapter 3 - I'm in love with the high school jerk

Avery's pov:

After a long and exhausting day at school all I want to do now is sleep*phone rings* unknown number? I wonder who this is.

Avery: hello Avery Anderson speaking who is this?

Caller: hey it's Austin speaking

Avery: my day just keeps on getting worse, what do you want?

Austin: that's so harsh coming from you

Avery: Austin I really don't have time for your jokes right now nor have the energy to fight with you, now I'm going to ask this for the last time WHAT DO YOU WANT? And who gave you my numbers?

Austin: let's just say I have my own ways of getting what I want, I heard you and Chloe had a heated argument

Avery: I knew it so you really wasted my nap time to ask me this?wow why did I even answer this call

Austin: okay there was no need for you to get all angry, care to come watch the basketball tournament on Friday?

Avery: why don't you ask your so called girlfriend

Austin: Chloe is not really my girlfriend shes someone I have fun with

Avery: weren't you the one telling Chloe that you love her and aren't you the one who always makes her feel like she's the only girl in world then when shes not around you deny your relationship with her

Austin: j just never saw her as the right girl for me

Avery: goodbye Austin and I won't be coming to watch the basketball tournament thank you!

Austin: but Avery...

I didn't even let him finish I just hanged up the phone and went to sleep.

Next day (school)

Aaliyah: Avery won't you audition for the school musical?

Avery: why should I? Even if I do who will I pair with?

Aaliyah: you can audition alone

Avery: you know I won't do that

Aaliyah: Avery stop holding yourself back and go for it, nervousness won't do you any good please do it,if not for you do it for me

Avery: okay fine I'll do it

I went to the notice board and signed my name in the schools musical sign up sheet and again Austin showed up

Austin: so you sing?

Avery: Aaliyah let's go

Aaliyah: but he's talking to you

Avery: Aaliyah I won't repeat myself let's go, as I dragged her out the schools entrance gate

Austin singed his name next to Avery's name so they can be paired together

*Morning bell rings*

Chloe and Austin bump into each other near Miss Taylor's classroom

Austin: hi Chloe

Chloe: so now you sing?

Austin: me? Sing? What are you talking about?

Chloe: I'm not a fool Austin Wilson I saw the sign up sheet and the worst part is that you're singing with that Avery girl

Austin:Don't hate me for trying to spend time with the girl I love

Chloe: LOVE? you love her? Austin please don't make me laugh we both know that you are a player every chance you get you break every girl's heart

Austin: who's "Every girl" Chloe?

Chloe: Vanessa,Lisa, Olivia and I

Austin: yeah it's four not "every girl" and trust me a guy can change for the girl he loves and I will prove that I know I just met her but there's just something about that girl

Chloe: I don't have time for this I'm leaving

Austin: see you later then

Chloe walked away and Austin entered the classroom

Miss Taylor: you're late,sit down

Austin: sorry ( he sat down)

Miss Taylor began teaching and told us about the upcoming English test and that it will be ready by next week Tuesday

The class was disturbed by an announcement"all the students who signed up for the musical auditions your rehearsal time starts now make sure you are on time for your auditions you've got an hour to rehearse

I stood up and left the classroom and went to the music room

Austin stood up and everyone was surprised

Miss Taylor: you? No no no please don't make us laugh you're more of a trouble maker than a dignified singer

Austin: well laugh all you want but I'm going for the auditions

As I was still thinking of the song I was going to audition with the door opened and Austin entered

Avery: now what?

Austin: JM here to audition with you

Avery: Austin I told you that I don't have time for your jokes please leave

Austin: Avery I'm not joking, he took out the sign up sheet and showed me

Avery: so you singed your name next to mine so we can be paired together?

Austin: yes

Avery: so you found another way to ruin my life so what song are we singing?

Austin:you never crossed my mind by Millie Jackson and Issac hayes

Avery: now you're talking

Austin: I knew you'd like it

Avery: and how did you know?

Austin:Let's just say I have my own ways

Avery:okay fine let's get back to work

"Phone rings- Mrs Wilson*

Austin: Hello mom

Avery: so did you tell the girl that you love her?

Austin: not now mom,I'm still busy we'll talk when I get home

Mrs Wilson: okay son see you later

Austin: sorry about that it was my mom

Avery: it's okey let's hit it one last time

Mr and Mrs Walker walked inside the music room

Them: rehearsal time is over go to the school hall

We walked to the school hall and sat down as we watched the other auditions,well Chloe's audition was on fire she's actually a great singer for her attitude, Vanessa and a guy named zack also did well I was impressed and the rest of the auditions were funny and embarassing

Mrs Walker: up next it's Avery Anderson and Austin Wilson

We went on stage and I started shaking

Austin: relax, just do your best and you'll be fine trust me

I just let out a smile and we went on with our performance and being on stage with him felt amazing the smiles we had while singing were priceless it felt like I'm in a fairytale and I'm living happily ever after and when we were done both Mr and Mrs Walker clapped hands and they told us that we were also selected to perform next week Friday honestly we were both very happy we even shared a hug

Austin: thank you

Avery: no thank you her you're still the arrogant and very rude guy but you're a great singer

Austin: I'll take that as a compliment

Avery: it's afterschool so I'll see you tomorrow

Austin: bye

I left and went to the schools entrance gate since Emma and Olivia Said they'll wait for me there

Avery: hey guys guess what

Olivia: what?

Avery's:me and Austin got in

Emma: congratulations

Olivia: congratulations friend I guess things went well

Avery: very well

Emma: well sorry to say this but here comes Chloe

Olivia: this girl never gets tired

Chloe: hey Avery I'm not here on fighting terms but here to congratulate you for making it in

Avery: thank you and congratulations to you too

We hugged and she left

Olivia: what just happened?

Avery: I'm also shocked

Emma: daylight miracle

We laughed and made our way out of the school gate
