This is Chapter 48 and sadly, it's the last chapter, but...because so many of you liked this on, I am doing a sequel! Here is chapter 48!

"There! You are gorgeous! Calum is just going to eat you up," Bailey said, spinning the chair Mack was in so she could see.

"If he can stop drooling," Keisha added.

Mack looked in her mirror and gasped. Keisha had French braided her hair and Bailey had done her face, putting just the right amount of make-up on. Sparkles were lightly sprinkled in her hair and on her face. "Wow..."

"As I said, Calum won't stop drooling."

Mack turned around to look at her friends. Bailey had on a pretty green dress, and Keisha had chosen a pink one. She looked at her own, a light blue dress with sparkles.

"Mack! The three musketeers are here," Troy yelled up the stairs.

"Let's go make sure that your brother doesn't say anything to Calum," Bailey said, ushering the other girls out of Mack's bedroom. The three positioned themselves on the stairs so they couldn't be seen.

Calum was sitting in a chair, looking very uncomfortable as Troy and Chad circled around him like hawks. Adam and Teagan were standing at a distance. Even Coach Bolton couldn't hide his grin.

"So...where are you going tonight," Troy asked.

"The dance."

"And what are you going to do there?" Troy stopped suddenly and Chad walked into him. "What?"

"What do you think they are going to do at a dance, Chad?"

"Dance and drink-"

"Which reminds me, no alcohol Boucher."

Calum nodded his head. Troy sent Calum a look, that both Calum and Jack caught.

"Troy, don't scare the poor kid off! Let them go and have fun."

Troy's mouth dropped and Chad looked over in disbelief. "You mean," Chad said. "You're going to let your one and only daughter go off with this...thing?"

"Chad, this thing is a very nice young man," Elaine said.

"Sure. He is now, but you wait," Troy said. "They seem nice, and then turn out like Chad."

"Hey!"

Mack had finally had enough and stood up walking over to him said, "Troy, enough!"

Troy and Chad looked over and smiled. Calum's eyes widened and his mouth dropped slightly. Adam rushed over to him and elbowed him. Calum seemed to be jerked out of his trance and stood up, walking to Mack. "You look amazing," he whispered.

"You don't look too bad yourself."

"May I," Calum said holding his hand out. "Your brother's driving us. Hope you don't mind."

"Oh he is, is he."

Calum shrugged. "It was either him or we were walking. I didn't think Bailey would want to walk in heels."

"You knew Bailey was wearing heels?"

"Yeah, she told us to get a car or else. We didn't want to mess with her."

Mack rolled her eyes. "Well, we mind as well get there soon and leave here before my parents decided to take pictures, go!"

The six kids ran to the van and got settled before Troy and Chad started to go. "So, who are you boys going with," Mack asked Adam and Teagan.

"I'm going with Hillary Goodman, I don't know who Adam's going with."

"Me, myself and I."

"You didn't ask anyone," Keisha asked.

"Nope."

"Oh. I don't have a date either, Chad will you take me?"

"Keisha," Bailey said before Chad could say anything. "You're going with Chris remember."

"Whatever," Keisha said somewhat dejectedly.

"But, you didn't even want to ask anyone," Bailey asked Adam.

"Yeah he did," Calum said. "He was going to ask-"

"That girl from that new series,boy is she a goddess or what," Adam said with a fake smile.

"What new series," Mack asked.

"The new one," Adam said. "You know, with the girl...and the guy..."

Teagan elbowed Adam. "You've said enough."

Adam blushed slightly and Troy started to chuckle from the drivers seat. He looked at Chad, who was holding back a laugh. "And, here we are," Troy said. "Have fun."

"You're not coming," Mack asked sarcastically.

"Mom, told me not to," Troy said.

"Plus, why would we want to be clung on to by eighth grade girls all night," Chad asked, glaring at Keisha through the rear view mirror.

"So, back at 9," Troy asked.

"9:30," Mack said.

"Alright, see you then."

The six piled out of the automobile and walked into the gym, which had been decorated by the staff. Music was already playing. "So, want to dance," Calum asked.

"Sure."

hsmhsmhsmhsmhsm

After dancing nonstop for two hours, Mack was exhausted. Her and Calum hadn't been able to get out of a circle of kids, who were dancing and they were the center of attention for most of the night. With fifteen minutes left of the dance, Calum led her toward a group of chairs. He sat down and pulled Mack into his lap. "That was fun."

"Yeah," Mack said. "But I'd be dead if there was no such thing as slow dances." She laid her head on Calum's chest.

"Go to sleep, you look tired."

"But-"

"Mack, I'll wake you later. Just shut your eyes and try to relax."

"A Whole New World" (the Disneymania 3 version with Jessica Simpson and Nick Lachey) started to play as she shut her eyes. Calum put his head on hers and scanned the gym. He couldn't see much because of the lack of lighting.

After about ten minutes, the last song started to play. He looked around, trying to find his friends. He found Teagan with Hillary, Bailey with Nick, Keisha (looking reluctant) with Chris. He couldn't find Adam.

"You look comfortable." Calum turned his head and looked at Adam. "I have been chased around by Fawn this entire time. Luckily she doesn't know we're going to East High. She's still going to West because she thinks I'm going."

Calum chuckled. "We got stuck in the middle. Mack's exhausted."

"She looks it. You know what Calum, I'm kind of happy we're not going to West High."

"Really?"

"Yeah. I mean, after what happened to your brother, being you or being associated with you, probably wouldn't be a good thing."

Calum sighed. "Probably. I still can't believe they did that, just because he's friends with Troy and the gang."

"Who wants to be a Knight, anyway? I'd so rather be Wildcat."

"Wildcats all the way!"

The two smiled. "I'm going to miss it. Being 'the big fish in the small pond.'"

"Yeah," Calum agreed. "Who wants to be a 'small fish in the bigger pond?' It shouldn't be that bad though."

"So this is it guys," Teagan said walking up to the boys. "Tomorrow's the beginning of summer vacation."

"I can't believe this is the last day of school," Keisha said from behind him.

"It's like just yesterday that we were in sixth grade and scared to death," Bailey said, walking over as the last song ended.

"Sorry guys," Adam said. "But this is reminding me of the ends of really corny movies."

The group laughed. "Come on," Calum said. "Lets get Mack home."

"You're just scare of Troy," Teagan exclaimed.

"Scared he'll blow up at you because you keep Mack in here too long," Adam asked.

"Shut up!"

"Shh! You'll wake her up," Bailey said.

Calum changed his hold on her so he could get up and walked over to the door. He turned back, "are you guys coming?"

The girls and Teagan walked over, but Adam stayed in the middle of the gym. He looked up at the decorations. "Well, this is it," he whispered to himself. He blew a breath of air out of his mouth. "I hope you're ready Adam, high school will be different." He bit down on his tongue lightly and tapped his foot. "East High, ready or not...here we come," he whispered before running out of the gym to his friends.

Tell me how you liked it.

For the sequel...there will be a brief preview/summary in a final chapter/AN of this story, so there will be a chapter 49, but it will be entitled sequel. You can give me suggestions for the sequel if you like, but if you don't it doesn't matter.

Tell me what you think!

Review!
