I turn around and lean against the table as Liam comes up caging me in. “You look beautiful.” He says as he places a gentle kiss on my cheek. I pull his lips to mine and like always it’s like I escape this world and fall head first into pure bliss. We’re interrupted by Cole pulling Liam away from me and dragging him into the living room. “You can make-out later, right now we need to party!” Cole exclaims, shouting the word party, having the whole house howl in response. I chuckle shaking my head, when Dallas hands me my drink. “Thank you.” I say sweetly, taking it from him.

He smiles and nods his head towards the living room. I take a deep breath and follow him. I’ve been getting better, but big gatherings are still not my thing. Kiera runs up to me, stopping me from getting to the chair I was about to sit in, until I wanted to start dancing. She wraps her arm around mine and starts pulling me the opposite direction. Dallas spins on his heels and follows us, he doesn’t like being too far away from me, especially during big gatherings. “Kiera, where are you taking me?” I ask as she works us through the crowd.” I’m taking you to my group. Since you still haven’t reached out to hangout with us, I’m just going to drag you to it.” I laugh, and submit, might as well. She leads me down to the game room, and all but throws me on the couch next to Rebecca. “Finally! You grace us with your presence.” Rebecca laughs as Dallas sits on the arm of the

couch next to me.

I smile shyly and pretend to laugh. Maybe it really is my fault. Maybe if I would have tried a little harder I could have had more than one friend all of these years. Mia always tried to tell me that they were good people, but I just didn’t believe they really wanted to try. Maybe I was wrong. As if sensing my internal dilemma, Dallas places his hand on my shoulder and squeezes. I look up at him and he gives me a reassuring smile, I smile back at him. I turn to look at the girls and they start rushing me with questions, most of which have to do with prom.

Liam and I already decided to go together, and Mia and I already went dress shopping. We’re both excited, and it seems these girls are pretty excited to. “So, are you going with Liam?” Kiera asks, and my face reddens as I shake my head yes. Not really something I’m embarrassed about, I’m just not used to all this attention. Even when I hang out with Mia and the guys we’re all there, all contributing, this feels like an ambush.

I finally get through all the questions that I’m willing to answer and everyone starts talking to everyone, finally. I’m just about to excuse myself when Liam walks in. I watch all the girls flush and start fidgeting in their seats. This is one reason I’m glad I’m not at school anymore, seeing them act like this day in and day out would get annoying, not that I don’t understand he’s gorgeous. “Hello ladies, I’m gonna steal Amy from you guys.” He says sweetly handing me his hand for me to take. I smile up at him in relief, and see all the girls nod like drunk bobble heads at him, except Kiera and Rebecca seem to be normal. Maybe there’s hope there. Everyone else, I feel would just be trying to get to know me, to know them.
