"Hey Spin."
Spinner stopped what he was doing at his locker and turned around to see Paige standing there.
"Hey Paige." He said. "What's up?"
"Are you, um..." Paige said. "...going to the dance tomorrow night?"
"Yeah." Spinner answered. "Why?"
"Just wondering." Paige replied. "Are you planning on asking anyone to it?"
"Well..." Spinner paused. "Not really, I think I'm gonna fly solo."
"Oh," Paige said. "Okay."
"Hey Paige!" Amber said cheerfully as she approached them.
"Hi." Paige said.
"Spinner, hi." Amber said glowing.
"Hey." Spinner said closing his locker. "How's it going."
"Good," Amber answered. "I just..."
Amber looked at Spinner and Paige who were waiting for her to finish her sentence.
"I'm just gonna come right out and ask..." Amber continued. "Do you want to go to the dance with me?"
"Me?" Spinner blinked. "I mean yeah, sure."
"Coolie." Amber smiled. "Meet me at Paige's."
Amber walked off with a huge smile across her face. Paige turned to Spinner.
"So much for flying solo." Paige said angrily.
"What?" Spinner asked confused. "What's wrong?"
"Nothing, Spin, nothing." Paige replied. She rolled her eyes at him and walked off.

It was friday night and Amber was over Paige's house. The two of them were getting ready for the dance.
"How about this?" Paige asked, holding up a black mini skirt with a baby blue halter top.
"It's perfect!" Amber responded.
"You know what would look fab?" Paige asked. She reached into her drawer and pulled out the same halter top in pink. "You already have the black mini skirt, but if you put this on we would be like twins."
"Your so awesome Paige." Amber said taking the top.
"I know." Paige said shrugging. "You can change here, I'll use the bathroom."
"Coolie." Amber waited for Paige to leave the room. She opened her backpack and took out her neatly folded skirt. Amber pulled off her tight fitted flares and put on the skirt. She examined herself in Paige's mirror and nodded.
...Ding dong...
Amber jumped a tiny bit when she heard the doorbell. She decided to ignore it since it wasn't her house. Amber folded her pants and placed them back in her backpack. She removed her t-shirt and folded that also. She placed it neatly in her bag.
Amber's attention turned to the door when she heard it opening. She saw Spinner walk in and look at her.
"Oh my..." Spinner started. "I am so sorry...I'm..." Spinner stumbled over his words as he turned around and quickly walked out of the room and closed the door.
Amber ran her fingers threw her long blonde hair and felt her cheeks turn red. She quickly pulled on the pink halter top and tied it.

"I really am sorry." Spinner said as himself, Paige and Amber approached the school.
"You said that fifty times." Amber said.
"Yeah Spin," Paige agreed. "It's getting really annoying."
"I'm sorry." Spinner said. "It's just that I'm a total idiot. There's no excuse!"
"Your right." Paige said. "I'm going to get a drink, I'll meet you on the dance floor Am."
Paige walked into the school and headed to the gym where the dance was taking place. Amber turned to Spinner.
"Your not an idiot." She said.
"But..."
"Shh." Amber put her pointer finger on his lips. "Let's go dance."
Amber grabbed Spinner's hand and led him into the school and to the gym.
"Hey Spinner!" Jimmy slapped hands with Spinner as he walked inside. "What's going on?"
"Nothing much." Spinner answered.
"Jimmy?"
Jimmy, Spinner and Amber looked to see Ashley Kerwin. Ashley looked nervous as she talked.
"What?" Jimmy asked.
"Can I talk to you?" She asked. "Please."
"Hello," Spinner interupted. "I was talking to the man."
"Yeah but..." Amber said calmly. "We were just about to go dance together, right Spinner?"
"Right." Spinner smiled.
Amber looked at Ashley. Ashley mouthed the words "thank you" and Amber nodded a "you're welcome". Amber took Spinner's hand and led him to the dance floor.

"This is fun!" Amber shouted over the music. Spinner raised their arms and Amber spun right as the song ended and a slow song came on. Spinner pulled her close and wrapped his arms arounds her. Amber wrapped her arms around his neck and smiled.
"What did you say?" He asked.
"I said..." Amber replied. "This is fun."
"Yeah." Spinner agreed. "It really is."
