A/N: I'm sorry if this chapter is a little rushed…

Isabella walked into the dance on Ethan's arm. Her wide green skirt blew around slightly. The tight sleeveless top tightened her waist to the preferable smallness. Ethan was in jeans and a blue and white T-shirt.

"So Is'bella ya wanna da-a-ce?"

"Sure" Isabella replied with the smile. She actually knew this song. Isabella was determined to make a statement and she switched her hips as her and Ethan took a spot in the middle of the dace floor.

"You have an interesting dace style" Isabella said as Ethan started to go all over the place.

"Well ya now I'm like…the man!"

"Ethan?" Isabella asked" What wrong with you today you're like all over the place.

'Huh?" Ethan asked dumbly.

Kate walked in with Clair and Brooke behind her. Clair in red and Brooke in white. Kate had assembled an up do of curls on her head. She was in hot pink. Now where is Ethan and that little bitch?"

"Kate look I think that's him." Clair pointed out Ethan but Kate couldn't tell the girl with him.

"I'm gonna bust that party" Kate said under her breath and moved towered the middle of the dance floor only to find Ethan alone. Exasperated Kate started "Ok so tell who…who is she?"

"Huh?"

"You're so dumb Ethan" Kate said and slapped him "You were suppose to come with me to this dance!"

Isabella walked over to the refreshment table were she bumped into Lizzie and Gordo. "Hello I didn't know you would be here together" Isabella said pouring herself some punch.

'Oh it's like a last minute thing." Lizzie smiled.

"Oh by the way Gordo really nice hair style. It's the one from the other night right?" You know you should really keep you stylist."

"Well thanks…bu-but I don't have a stylist and I don't see what's so wrong with my other hair style?"

"Nothing Gordo" Lizzie said and her and Isabella looked at each other and giggled.

"Girls" Gordo muttered.

"What was that Gordo?" Lizzie asked.

"Nothing?"

"You sure…" The last of the playful dialogue was lost on Isabella who's attention had been caught by the slow song that had started.

Lonely night

Lonely roads

This is all that I have known

All before I found you

Hold me tight

Keep me worm

This is all I need you know

Now that I have found you

"OM My God!" Isabella cried out

"What?" Lizzie asked.

"Lizzie! This is mine and Paolo's song. I didn't know they had any records of those here! It's like one of the few slow songs we have! And one of the two we have in English!"

"Really! Oh my that is you singing…and…Wow Isabella that's so cool!"

Kate came over at that moment and Lizzie and Gordo went to dance.

"So Isabella" Kate said, she looked wound up" Who are you here with?"

"Ummm….I…umm…no one" Isabella lied quickly but Ethan was right there.

"What do ya mean? You're here with me!"

"Wait! Wait, wait! You are here? With my guy?"

"I'm…no…I mean yes…uh…" Isabella stuttered.

"You little back stabbing bitch!" Kate cried.

"I didn't know he was your guy Kate!" Isabella shouted back.

"Well he is and he's spending the rest of the dance with me" Kate said and grabbed Ethan's arm" And" she added turning around" You better watch it from now on!"

You are here

You are mine

That means it's gonna be alright

All I need

Is your sweet touch

Or am I asking for too much

Isabella ran toward the exit.

"Lizzie look she's leaving" Gordo said concerned.

"I think Kate might have busted her" Lizzie replied.

"Lizzie…I'm gonna go talk to her."

"Maybe I should cause I'm like a girl?"

"No it's ok I don't want you to get you evening spoiled or anything I…I'll talk to her." With Gordo left and met up with Isabella who was standing outside the gym with her back pressed against the wall.

"Hey are you ok?"

"Yes " Isabella replied "I just you see I was getting a long with Kate so well and this has to happen! I mean and I can't believe Ethan didn't even step in for me."

"Hey listen come back in and forget about it. You won't be lonely I bet guys will be lining up to dance with you."

Isabella managed a smile. "It's ok I think I'll jus leave."

"I don't think Ethan would leave early to walk you home…"

"I don't need Ethan" Isabella snapped her eyes sad. "I'll go myself."

"Here I'll walk you" Gordo offered.

'Really?" Isabell asked.

"Sure."

"Oh Gordo thank you! You are so sweat."

"But Isabella are you sure you wanna leave?"

The last chords of the Paolo and Isabella song that had bean playing floated out from the gym "No I better go…" Isabella said softly.

Lizzie poked her head threw the gym doors. "Gordo" she hissed" Are you coming back in?"

"No I'm actually gonna walk Isabella home."

"What? So you're just leaving me here?"

"Lizzie right now Isabella needs a friend ok?"

"No not ok Gordo!"

"Lizzie I'll come back…"

"Ok you can come back but I wont be here" Lizzie said almost shouting cause I'm going home too!"

"Lizzie!" Gordo cried out.

"Don't worry" Isabella said tilting her head to the side and putting her hand on his forearm. "She'll understand."
