A/N: Amanda, Kyle/Jessi. Please Review!
Upbeat dancing music played steadily in the background as the college students danced and chatted, test-tubes filled with drinks and necks adorned with glowing necklaces. A tall, dark-haired man gazed his brown eyes at a bubbly blonde wearing a rather short black dress, smiling at her as he laughed at a joke he'd just made. The blonde returned his smile, stifling a giggle that stopped abruptly as she watched a rather remarkable brunette glide down the stairs from across the room.
She couldn't help but awe in wonder at the marvel that was Jessi, descending to the bottom step, eyes only for a tall, young man in a blue silk shirt. Amanda's eyes widened at then scene in front of her. Kyle, her Kyle, was there, with Jessi, and she looked amazing flaunting that red dress and bouncy hair tendrils escaping from her up-do. The girl had to give her props on the outfit, for it was sexy, fun, and well, beautiful. But Amanda had never seen Miss Plain Jane in such attire. She couldn't have possibly picked that out herself, could she? No, someone helped her and Amanda had a feeling she knew who.
Ignoring Nate completely, she moved over to the bar area, to get a better look at the scene, and unfortunately, saw the glow on Kyle's face as he stood in disbelief at Jessi, face beaming, mirroring the nervous, yet joyous look on Jessi's. She couldn't hear what Kyle was saying, yet she knew what any guy would say to a girl dressed like that. His head tipped forward slightly, taking in the full image of Jessi's vivacious curves, hidden beneath the blood-red dress, the same color of Amanda's face as she continued to watch.
Amanda ran through her mind on all the consequences that this grand entrance would have on her plans to get Kyle back. Even though she was still upset at him, she had a feeling Kyle would do anything to make up for that one kiss he shared with Jessi, even though he never truly explained why he was kissing her in the first place... But this--oh, this changed everything. Amanda had come to the party wearing a more revealing dress than she was used to, hair done wonderfully, and even with a man on her arm just to make Kyle jealous (all of which Hilary insisted upon) However, attempts had little effect compared to what Jessi had done to him. It was as if he was in a trance and unable to keep his eyes off her.
Yes, the rules had changed, and this time, Amanda would have to step up if she really wanted Kyle back, especially now after underestimating the competition.
I just thought the scene would be interesting through Amanda's POV. Let me know what you think. More fics to come!
