Laney's POV

Knowing the band had little time to practice AND get lyrics from Trina's Diary, We had to meet super-early at 7 AM. The four of us met up at Corey's Garage at 7:30 for practice. "Okay, Guys. We only got 3 hours to practice. We practice those 3 hours, get Trina to go into her Diary Meltdown, Then once we finish that... We have to spend the rest of the day getting ready for the ball at 8 tonight." Corey explained, tuning his guitar. The twins jumped on stage and got ready to play. I got off the couch and quickly set up my bass. I plugged it into the speakers and went to my spot. "Count us in, Kon!" I winked at Kon. He grinned and nodded. "One Two Three, Four!" He yelled as he hit his drum-sticks together.

Corey's POV

"Great Practice everyone! Now, We need a plan to get Trina into her diary melt down..." I tapped my chin. Laney face palmed. "So, we got no lyrics AND no plan? This is one of your worst days ever, Core!" She groaned. Kon's eyes lit up. "This may sound crazy, But I have an idea!" The four huddled together and whispered.

Trina's POV

"Finally, Those Grojlosers are done they're... 'music'." I sighed sitting back on my bed, staring at the Nick Mallory pictures posted on my wall. "Oh, My sweet nick... MINA!" I yelled. Mina came running in through the door. "Y-Yes Trina?" she gulped. "I need you to find out when Hunky Nick Mallory will ask me to the ball." I snapped. Mina nodded. "Alright!" She ran off, as soon as Mina got out, Corey entered my room.

No one's POV

Trina scowled at Corey. "Like, WHY are you in my room?!" she snapped. Corey smirked. "Just through you'd wanna see what Nick Mallory posted on his page..." He held out his phone, Trina snatched it from his hand. "Nick Mallory is going to the ball with... with... MINA?!" She shouted. "NO WAY! How could she? And he posted this... an hour ago?! Why that Mina...!" Trina felt her head get hotter, as the clouds outside turned grayer and thunder roared. "MIIIIIIIINAAAAAAAA!" Trina screamed, going Diary Mode. She flew into the air and grabbed her pen and diary, scribbling words. Corey has taken cover under her table as things fell off of the shelves. Suddenly, Trina calmed down and collapsed onto her bed, falling asleep again. (Either that or she fainted.) Corey caught the falling Diary. "Perfect..." He chuckled and ran out of the room.

Laney's POV

"I got the lyrics!" Core shouted running down the stairs, then tripping and hitting face first on the ground.
I winced. "Ooo... You okay Core?" I asked helping him up. He looked dazed. "Uh...Yeah... Thanks Kin..." He said dizzily. I scowled. "I'm LANEY! NOT Kin!" Corey shook his head. "O-Oh.. Gosh... Sorry Lanes..." I could've sworn I saw him blush, but...whatever.
We all had lunch together, and then headed home to change. I ran home and ripped through my closet, and took out my dress. "Okay, I got a couple hours... MOM! I need you to do my hair in an hour!" I yelled from the doorway. I grabbed my towel and ran to the bathroom, locking the door behind me and getting in the shower.

*7:30 PM Transition*

Corey's POV

We all met up at the garage, the twins arrived first with Kin wearing a red tux and Kon wearing a black on... yeah, don't want cheese on any white ones, hm? Anyways, we waited about 5 minutes until an angel... I mean Laney came in. She was wearing a crimson red dress that goes to her knees, she had matching shoes and her hair is surprisingly long without her hair clip. It's like... Wow. Just wow. I don't even know how to begin... She looked awesome. I felt my face heating up. No! No! Don't blush! She'll see you! "Um... H-Hi Lanes!" I shuttered, still in awe. "Hey Core... You all look awesome!" She smiled. Kin and Kon exchanged glances. "I thought Laney was a guy..." Kon whispered into Kin's ear. "Yeah, I know! Man, We're screwed." Kin muttered back. I chuckled hearing them. I'd always known Laney was a girl, unlike the twins. But since she's the only girl in the band, I called her a bro and dude to make her feel like she's not alone. "HEY BRATS, GET IN THE CAR OR I'M LEAVING YOU HERE!" I heard Trina shout from her car. "We better hurry before she drives off and makes us walk." I tell the others. We all laugh and run into the car.

*At the ball Transition*

Laney's POV

Omigosh, Omigosh... I can't believe it! We're here! Oh, I hope I'll get my chance to tell Corey how I feel...

We all stepped out of the car and Trina drove away at lightning speed, Probably to cry her eyes out because 'Hunky' Nick Mallory chose Mina over her. But, I don't care. All I want is to be hand in hand with Corey on the dance floor... We all walked in together, since we're the band we don't have to pay the $15 fee to get in... Points, Corey! "OH. MY. GOD! Is that a chocolate fountain?!" I hear Corey almost scream. The twins run by it and find the cheese fountain. As the 3 boys fill up on cheese and chocolate, I stand there tapping my foot. "Don't get your suits dirty, If you do you all owe me 20 bucks each." I exclaimed. Corey, Kin and Kon checked they're pockets and they were empty. Ha! They're broke! That gives Corey a reason to not mess this night up. I think to myself and giggle. The twins go off, saying they have some kind of... Date? Yeah, Sure boys. Whatever...

Corey's POV

I walk up to Laney and rub the back of my head. "So... Just you and me now?" I said a bit nervously. "Well, Us plus a hundred other people..." Laney pointed out. We both laughed, then I got serious. "Listen, Lanes... I, uh... Was wondering if you... wanted to dance?" I felt my heart racing and my face heat up. "R-Really Corey?" She looked at me, man, she's cute... No! Focus, Corey! Focus! "Uh...Yeah. It's... my way of saying...uh..." I thought a moment, then I grinned. "It's my way of saying sorry for a terrible... er... 'Fake Date' we had to get into the wedding! I realized it meaned more to you then I thought so..." I knew my face must be really red by now. "Would you like to dance?" I asked shyly. Laney looked a bit shocked, then smiled. "Aw, Thanks Corey. I'd love to dance." The two went onto the dance floor and found an empty little area. The music was being played slowly. I hesitated. SH!T! You don't know how to dance, Dummy! I facepalmed. "Duh..." I muttered. Laney smiled and grabbed my hands. "Like this." She positioned my hands on her waist and she put her hands on my shoulders. I hate to admit it, but she was pretty good. Heck, I was pretty awesome too! I felt as if the music changed to be quieter just for us.

I looked down at Laney, she looked away and I swore I say her blush. C'mon, Core... It's now or never. I thought. I inhaled. "Laney, Can I speak to you on the balcony... Alone?"
