Note from the Author: HUGE WRITER'S BLOCK! I'm so sorry!
Ella slowly woke up. "Huh...?" She realized she woke up in her bed, but not on the beach where she fell into slumber.
Looking around, she picked up a note that said 'Brought you home -Dylan.'
She lightly blushed, just from hearing that he had brought her home. Then realizing that the note was placed right next to her, "My notebooks open..." her blush had deepened.
'He must have read some of it...' she thought. Her name and his in a heart on the page that showed. "I just don't hope that he actually read what I truly wrote about him." She flipped back to a certain page in her book, sighing with a gleeful smile.

"No!" screamed Applejack, walking away fast.
"Come on, seriously?!" asked Donte, trying to follow after her, "The hell did I do?"
She turned back to him, "I saw you kiss that girl!"
"That's all you're yelling at me about? A stupid kiss?"
"I saw how much you enjoyed it!"
"It was a magic trick for Pete's sake! It doesn't mean anything!"
"Yeah, sure it doesn't," she scoffed.
"So you're seriously breaking up with me because I kissed a girl in a magic trick?"
"That's exactly what I'm sayin'."
"You know what? Whatever, go ahead, I'm not gonna even try if you won't listen to reason."
Applejack walked away, her attitude showing in every step.
Donte sat on the school bench right behind him. He sighed, "I can't believe that just happened."

John's face was flushed red as he heard, "So will ya?" from a certain, high-pitched and cheerful voice.
"Will I what?"
"Oh, oopsie. I forgot to say the beginning of my question," Pinkie spoke with a giggle. "Will you go out with me?"
"W-Why do you ask?"
"I don't know. I just get this little torso twist when I think of you and me together. And I never had a 'Torso Twist' before. So it must be a good thing!"
"Where would you want to go, anyway?"
"Hmm..." Pinkie was deep in thought. "What about the school dance coming up soon?"
"Sure, I guess."
"Great!" Pinkie said, as cheerful as ever. Bouncing off.
Out in the hallway, Casey said, "Come on, Mates, we have to find a place we can do a gig at."
Blueice commented, "Well, I don't know many places we can do it at without being known first."
Dylan looked over to him, "Hey, what about Vinyl? I'm sure she can make a few connections for you."
"Oh yeah," replied Casey, taking out his phone. "I forgot, she had offered to help me find a gig if I need it."
Passing by the restrooms, Dylan said, "Hey, you guys go on ahead, gotta do something."
Casey and Blueice said bye as Dylan walked into the bathroom.
Upon leaving, he was called to, "H-Hi, Dylan."
He looked behind him in the hallway, "Oh. Hey, Ella." She had a clearly noticeable blush on her face.
"I was, um... I was wondering if you, maybe, wanted, to hang out today?"
"Really?"
Her blushed brightened as she slowly nodded, "Mm-hmm..."
He thought it was cute how she was asking him on a date. "Sure, I'm not busy."
She smiled lightly. "T-Thanks."

Riley stood on a ladder, tying up a giant poster thing. "Why are we the only two people on set-up committee for the dance?" he asked.
"I don't know," responded Storm, having tied up the other side, and holding the ladder steady. "But we sure have some alone time now."
He stepped down from the ladder, "We already have tons of alone time."
"You saying that we're spending too much time together?"
Riley lightly chuckled, "Of course not."
Storm stole a kiss from him. "Good, I can never stop hanging out with you."
With a few seconds of silence, Riley asked, "Answer me this."
"Yeah?"
"What are you doing during the dance?"
"Oh, well, I'm DJing it."
"Seriously?"
"Yeah, the school's paying me for it."
"Cool."
"Why'd you ask?"
Riley lightly blushed, "Oh, that's, no reason."
"Come on, tell me."
"I just wanted to hang out with your during the dance, but I guess I can't."
"Well, we can still hang out. Even if I'm DJing."
"Can we?"
"Mm-hmm..."
Storm started kissing Riley once more.

Valerie walked out of the school, seeing Donte still on the bench. "Hey, Donte."
Donte glanced at her, "Oh, hey..."
"What's got you down?" she sat next to him.
"I'm just, upset, a bit."
"Okay, I figured that. But why?"
"Applejack, broke up with me."
"Why'd she do that?"
"She saw me kiss another girl just for a magic trick. She didn't believe me that it didn't mean anything."
"Aha..." Valerie thought for a moment. "You know, if I was her, I wouldn't be upset with how many girls you kiss for a magic trick, as long you'd still love me."
Donte lightly sighed, still looking at the ground, and a sad tone in his voice. "Thanks, but I don't think that'll help too much."
Valerie turned his head with her finger, lightly pecking his cheek, "I'm not lying."
He blushed, "Seriously?"
"As serious as me asking you out to the dance."
"Well, I guess I can't argue with that."
