A/N: NEXT PART YAY~ I wish I could think of comments right now but I can't for some reason.
Dawn had to sit down, still dizzy from her…dancing with Crasher Wake. But even through her dizziness, she had to admit that this party was really fun. And it was all for her, even! The thought of that just filled her heart with giggles. But still, it felt like she was missing something…
Oh, of course! Barry!
Thinking about it, she really hadn't seen much of her friend tonight. She'd seen that Barry was there, but whenever she'd tried to go talk to him, he'd gone off before she'd gotten very close. Was he avoiding her…? Thinking about that made her feel kind of sad…
Cynthia, the former champion, noticed Dawn sitting there and walked over to her. "You look upset. What's wrong?" she asked.
Dawn sighed. "It's nothing…" she said.
"That didn't sound like nothing," Cynthia said.
"Well, it's just…" Dawn sighed again. "You remember Barry, right?"
"The excited blond boy?" Cynthia asked. "Yes, I remember him. What about him?"
"I haven't seen him at all today, and I really want to…" Dawn said. "He's my best friend, I want to spend time with him, you know?"
"Awww…" Cynthia said.
"Don't 'awww' me…" Dawn mumbled.
Cynthia smiled at her. "Sorry, but it just sounds so sweet!" she said. "You should maybe dance with him!"
Dawn frowned and turned away from her. "I-I-I don't know about that…" she said.
"Why not?" Cynthia asked.
"B-Because we're friends!" Dawn said. "It'd be…weird!"
Cynthia sighed. "You're never going to get anywhere with that attitude," she said, shaking her head. "Look, Dawn, if he asks you, you really should dance with him. Because I know you want to."
"Well…fine, maybe…" Dawn said in defeat.
