"Kat, dad wanted me to tell you he is going on a business trip for a few days," Sky said, a big grin on his face, and then with that he shut the door.

"What was that all about," Chris asked.

"I have no idea," I said sitting on my bed.

"Kat, why where you late the first day of school," Gordie asked. I looked at him then everyone else.

"I woke up late," I said.

"O Ok," Teddy said but I knew they didn't believe me.

Days passed and weeks rushed on and soon winter fell over Castle Rock. I walked down the hallway hugging my books to my chest.

"Kat," I heard someone yell. I turned around to see Ace running towards. Ace had started being nice to me when he wasn't around his group.

"What," I said, "I am going to be late…again,"

"Are you going to the Winter Ball," he asked.

"I don't know," I said.

"You want to go with me," he asked, that surprised me, I couldn't say yes to Ace, his group hated me. "If you say no I am going to keep asking you."

"Ok I will go with you," I said and hurried off to my History class, Chris and Teddy where also in that class. I took my seat in front of Chris and next to Teddy. The bell rang and the teacher started class.

A few minuets later I saw a little paper fly on my desk from behind me. I opened it up and it was from Chris. He asked me if I was going to the dance and I wrote yes and threw it back to him, then Chris threw it to Teddy who wrote something them threw it to me. I opened it up again and they asked me who I was going with. I looked over at Teddy who put candy in his mouth. I wrote down Ace then threw it back to Teddy. I turned to look the other way so I would see his reaction. I heard him open it then a few seconds later gasp then start chocking on his candy. Everyone turned to look at him.

'tTeddy are you ok," The teacher asked.

"I am fine…' he choked out.

The bell rang and I got out of the room before Teddy and Chris. I tired to hide but they caught up to me.

"What is this I hear about you going with Ace," Chris asked he looked mad.

"He asked me what was I suppose to say no?" I asked.

"Yes," Teddy and Chris both said at the same time.

'Well it is none of your business who I go to the dance with," I yelled and stormed off.
