Ellie

God I'm bored. If Mr. Simpson doesn't't stop talking, I swear I'm going to choke him to death. I almost fall asleep, when all of a sudden, Craig pokes me at my waist. I scream, which alarms Simpson and the rest of the class.

"Care to tell us what startled you Ms. Nash?" Simpson asked me. He is so fucking annoying.

"It was nothing" I say bittersweetly. I then kick Craig in the knee.

"Ow, the hell did I do?" I swear that boy can play dumb so good it scares me.

"Stop being an ass!" I whisper furiously. It was going to be one of those days.

"Stop staring at mine so much!"

I blush so hard my cheeks almost match my hair. I hate it when he gets to me. Its just about him that makes me let my guard down. All my defenses just go away when we're together. I guess thats how my stupid little crush on him came to be. I wish I was brave enough to tell him, but it doesn't't look like he wants to be more than just 'buddies'. Urgh! Why am I worried about this? This is so not me!

Anyway, I get my composure back and counter with "I wouldn't't look if it weren't so huge".

"Oh that's it, you've crossed the line now Nash!" Just as he was about to grab me, the bell rings, and I race out of Media Immersion. But he catches me, and tickles me to death.

"Cr-Craig st-stop it!" I try to grab his hands but he pins me to the wall and to continues to tickle me. I try desperately to squirm out of his reach but its no use.

"Hey you two, am I interrupting anything.." Lucky for me, Craig stopped his torture.

"Hey Paige" I manage to say while trying to breathe. That boy never knows when to stop. "So what do we owe the pleasure of you talking to us?" I ask.

"I wanted to invite Craig to a little party I'm throwing tonight, I guess you can come to if you want" She only wants Craig. I can see right through her. Me and Paige don't swim in the same circles. Ironically, we have the same friends.

Right when I was going to decline her petty invite, Craig cuts me off saying "We'll be there".

"Great, its my place at 8" She says before walking away, "Oh and Elle, you might want to change. Just a thought"

I start walking towards when Craig steers me the opposite way. If he were my friend, he would have let me smack the make-up off that bitch's face.

"She's not worth it, Elle" I know he's right but I still want to do it.

"Whatever. I guess I'll see you at Paige's" I wasn't going. Parties weren't my kind of thing. Especially ones thrown by Queen Michalchuk.

"More like in front of your house to pick you up. I don't trust you" Oh he knows me well.

"Fine" I pout. The late bell rings, and me and the curly-haired boy of my dreams race to class.

7:30

As time went on I got excited about the party. Cuz it looks like I'm going to be Craig's date, even though he may not think of it that way. I decided to take Paige's advice and change, to surprise Craig. After hours of trying on clothes, I finally chose a tight red tee, a black skirt, studded belt, thigh-high red stockings, and my favorite black boots. I was putting the finishing touches on my make-up when I heard the doorbell. I sprinted downstairs to answer the door. Its of course Craig, but he had a shocked look on his face as soon as he saw me.

"Wow, damn, I- I mean, you look good Nash" I blushed a little, it was cute how he was stuttering.

"You don't look so bad yourself, Manning" He had on black tee, saggy jeans, black Vans, and his legendary leather jacket. I swear, he will be buried with that jacket on.

He waited for me to tell my mom where I was going, but like always, she was passed out. So I locked the door, took Craig's hand, and we were off.

Craig

I still can't believe how good Ellie looks tonight. Not that she didn't look good before, but she looks so hot in that black skirt. Did I actually say my friend was hot. I'm starting to see this girl in a whole new light. Or it might just be the fact that I haven't got any in a WHILE.

"Did I say you look great already?" Did I actually say that out loud. What is wrong with me right now.

"Only about the thousandth time" I blush. Wait a minute, is she blushing too?

We play-flirted a little more until we got in front of Paige's door. I knock, and Spinner answers the door. I try to say a quick hello and get inside but he starts a whole conversation on me. Which is awkward considering that me and Jimmy don't talk to him anymore. I think you know why. I manage to escape with Ellie still in hand when he whispers in my ear "How'd you turn Goth Girl into Hot Girl?" I move away from him, not wanting to answer that question. It was going to be a long night.

10:30

I don't know how Paige was able to get beer to the party but thank God. I needed a serious drink to get away from my head. I decided to check up on Ellie, see if she's having fun. She was talking to Jimmy, she looked pretty tipsy. I crept up behind her and gave her a hug.

"Having fun?" I ask furtively. She holds my arms and says "Yeah, but I'd have more fun with you"

Just as I'm trying to figure out what she meant, a semi-drunk Paige screams "Who wants to play 57 Minutes In Heaven?"
