'Finally, we've finished unpacking!' Nellie exclaimed, throwing her fist into the air. The brunette had just moved into an apartment with her close friend, Abraham. Nellie adored the location, as it was close to several of the people she had befriended a year ago, in 'The Glee Project' house. Michael's apartment was only five minutes away, which Nellie loved; however, the short distance wasn't the only thing she loved.

In the seven weeks that she had spent in the house, she had fallen hard for the slightly nerdy boy, Michael Weisman; she knew that he only wanted to be friends though. She understood that she would have to move on; move past her crush on the adorkable boy.

'Want to go out to celebrate?' Nellie heard Abraham ask, 'you could invite a certain someone!' He teased, nudging her slightly and winking. Abraham was the only one she had told about her secret crush on Michael and he was probably the only one she would ever tell. She had tried to hint that she wanted to be more than friends to the math-loving boy; however, he did not seem interested in anything other than friendship.

'I regret telling you!' She deadpanned to her black-haired friend, although both of them knew she was joking, 'you should invite Shanna then!' Nellie teased back, causing Abraham to let out a squeal.

'Deal! It'll be like a double date!'

'With no couples!' Nellie exclaimed, shaking her head slightly, although she felt that she was beginning to blush slightly.

'Yet!' Abraham shrieked, excitement pulsing through his body; he jumped up off their new orange couch and rushed to grab his mobile off the table. Nellie hauled herself to her room in order to get ready. She grabbed a cute black sundress that went to just above her knees and put it on. She really liked this dress, as Michael had complimented her while she was wearing it several times.

'No, Nellie!' She thought to herself, 'you have to move on. He's just your friend!'

She quickly grabbed a hair brush and ran it through her short hair; she was trying to grow it out. As she brushed her hair she walked back out into the lounge area.

'It's all arranged! We're going to a club nearby; it doesn't get too wild there, unfortunately, as it's eighteen up, meaning no alcohol.' Abraham laughed. Nellie could tell that he was excited, as partying and having a good time in general was definitely his thing.

'You can use this as an opportunity to meet someone new!' The girl thought to herself as she returned to her room to grab an ID and place the brush onto her bed. She knew that moving on would be a hard process; she'd have to find another great guy, and then move from there. Nellie had never been one to get over someone while single.

'Blondie's here!' She heard Abraham yell from the other room. Nellie rapidly grabbed a small bag where she put her phone and money, then rushed to catch up with Abraham, as the boy had already begun skipping down to Shanna's car. As she neared the vehicle, Nellie mentally prepared herself to see the boy who had rejected her. She hesitantly opened the door to the backseat of the car, only to see that it was empty.

'Michael's meeting us there.' Abraham explained as he noticed the girl's confused and slightly hurt expression. Nellie nodded as she put her seatbelt on and closed the car door, trying to force a happy smile onto her face. Shanna and Abraham began to 'talk' as they drove to the club, although to Nellie it sounded like flirting. She knew that Abraham had wanted to ask the blonde out for a while now; Nellie hoped that he would, as she could tell that the girl liked him back.

As the pair continued their flirting, Nellie begun to tune them out. Their moves towards one another were making her feel lonely; she hadn't been on a proper date in a while, although Abraham would claim that she went on one the other day, when she and Michael ate ice cream together; however, that was just a friendly outing.

As soon as they arrived at the club, which was called 'Love Times Drinks', Nellie glanced around for her friend Michael. She couldn't see him through all the dancing people, half of whom were probably underage; she knew that he may not have even arrived yet. Shanna, Abraham and Nellie quickly found a table and sat down.

'It's great that you two moved here!" Shanna exclaimed, a grin plastering her face. 'We should dance in celebration!'

Nellie let out a half-hearted laugh at her friends enthusiastic antics, but decided to stay sitting at their table for now; she knew that she'd just be the third wheel if she danced near the two. After about five minutes of sitting and waiting for either her friends to come back, or Michael to arrive, Nellie saw somebody begin to approach her.

The boy who was rapidly walking in her direction was a little shorter than her friend Blake; he had slightly ruffled light brown hair and was wearing a plain white T-shirt as well as slightly ripped jeans. He didn't have bulging muscles, but Nellie could tell that he was quite strong.

'Hey, beautiful,' the boy smiled at her with his piercing green eyes, 'want to dance?'

Nellie was hesitant at first, she was not one to randomly dance with a stranger; she did, however, know that this was her chance to move on from the boy who considered her to be only a friend; Nellie decided to accept.

The two rushed to the edge of the crowded dance floor and begun to dance to the beat of the thumping music. Nellie noted that the boy wasn't a very good dancer, unlike Michael, who had done quite well in dance-ability week, but at least the brown-haired boy seemed to be having fun. Nellie slowly felt herself enjoy their simple interaction. She didn't even notice when Michael stumbled into 'Love Times Drinks' and sat down alone, watching her dance.
