Massie walked up the Harrington driveway with confidence. She was wearing dark True Religion jeans and a black silky Prada top. She pushed her brown hair back as the cool night air made her shiver. She held onto her clutch and walked up the porch steps where she met up with Josh.

"Hey," he smiled.

"Hello." Massie smiled back and could here loud music thumping on the door. "So, should we go in?"

Josh smiled again. "Of course, uhm, my fake date?"

Massie giggled. "I think I'm going to tell Derrick it's all a charade."

"Are you to finally going to start going out?" Josh asked and turned to the door. Massie shrugged. "Sure, the minute he grows up."

The two entered the mansion and inside it revealed a bout a hundred people dancing, talking, and doing who knows what. Massie stood closer to Josh not wanting to get trampled by the soccer players kicking the ball around.

Josh grabbed Massie's arm and dragged her passed the crowds of people dancing. Massie jumped when someone girl dropped her Coach bag. Josh led Massie to the Harrington's bar where TPC and the guys were standing by. Massie turned her head and felt her brown hair move as she looked fro Derrick. He wasn't there. Massie sighed and sat on the leather stool beside Dylan.

Lady Gaga's 'Just Dance' started blasting from the speakers that hung from the ceiling. Alicia handed Massie a cup of fruit punch that had a tiny umbrella in it.

From the foyer to the living room it was super crowded but Massie would've guessed that the party was up to the pool. Massie looked around the people they were all in couples or groups of people Massie was overwhelmed with loneliness.

Cam wrapped his arm around Dylan. She smiled and snuggled closer to him. Massie rolled her eyes but couldn't help stare with envy. They were a couple who waited a long time to get together. And then they finally did and that was the same case as Massie's but Massie she was in this with Derrick. And Derrick played games differently.

Cam whispered something in Dylan's ear and she giggled flirtatiously, Massie simply sipped her fruit punch. Derrick finally walked up to the bar and smiled at his friends.

"Hey guys!" He looked at everyone and let his stare stay on Massie for awhile. Massie looked the other direction and Josh immediately placed his arm over her shoulders.

"Hey," Alicia smiled at him and her gaze moved to a muscular red head. Alicia smiled inside and out. she loved guys that reminded her of 'Ron Weasley'.

"So, where's your date?" Plovert asked and popped a chip in his mouth.

"Around." Derrick shrugged and grabbed a drink from the bartender.

"Non-alcoholic drinks right?" Kristen seemed worried and that caused her boyfriend, Kemp to hold her close to him. She smiled at him then blushed when Alicia giggled.

"Jeez, Kemp you haven't sunk into her have you?" Derrick laughed and Kristen wacked him with her Michael Kors handbag. Derrick rolled his eyes and took a sip of his Coke.

Massie looked up to the white ceiling and josh shared a quick glance with Alicia.

"So it's like everyone is getting hooked up around here." Derrick said while staring at Massie. Massie stuck her tongue out and Derrick made a face at her.

"Well it prom season is coming up." Massie stated.

"Yeah and I'll just hook up this year." Derrick said.

"Is that right out of the player handbook?" Massie challenged and shrugged Josh's arm off. He didn't do anything it's not like they were even a couple.

"Well I am a pro," Derrick countered and everyone took a step back.

"You got that right." Massie rolled her amber eyes and Derrick was about to say something but he was lost in her eyes.

"Derrick!" Jennifer walked up from behind him. She pinched his sides and Derrick turned to her with his famous Derrick Harrington smile.

"Hey," He said smoothly and slid his hand under the jacket she was wearing. Massie placed her arms over her chest.

"Let's go upstairs where it's more private," Derrick winked at Jennifer. Massie knew he did it to purposely piss her off. It did. But Massie wasn't going to let that get to her. She was close to winning she could taste victory.

The two left and Derrick looked back to make sure Massie was watching his performance. That's what you get by Paramore started blasting through the speakers.

XX

Derrick led Jennifer to the upstairs balcony where it was romantic and private. It was right next to Derrick's bedroom and it overlooked the pool. The moonlight and the light from the pool made the water a light blue color.

"Why don't you just tell her you love her?" Jennifer asked.

"Because that is flirting with disaster." Derrick remarked.

Jennifer leaned against the rails of balcony and Derrick looked into the sky. "It's obvious you love her." Jennifer smiled and made Derrick laughed.

"Well, she's the kind of girl I've been waiting for even though she's so annoying." Derrick chuckled.

"Tell her." Jennifer ordered.

"I don't want to." Derrick stomped like a three year old.

"If you don't then she'll be Josh's girl." Jennifer reminded him.

"I know I hate that she's with my best friend but she's not officially my girl so I can't step in between a best bud and his love life." Derrick said quietly.

"Massie loves you." Jennifer said quietly.

"What?" Derrick said in a laugh. "What makes you think that?"

"It's in her eyes." Jennifer stated. "Don't you see how her amber eyes beg for you?"

"Ew, no," Derrick remarked.

"She practically wanted to kill me." Jennifer laughed.

"I've kissed her before and she sent the message she was into me but I love her and I don't know how she feels about me." Derrick said.

"Really? You two have kissed?"

Derrick nodded. Then the two got quiet then Derrick smiled at Jennifer and she looked back at him. "I want you to kiss me." Derrick said moving closer to Jennifer.

"What?!" Jennifer exclaimed.

"I just want to know something…" Derrick said. "If I really love Massie."

Jennifer shrugged then decided on doing it. He was Derrick Harrington Briarwood's god. Derrick inched closer to her and leaned forward Jennifer stayed in her position but lowered her eyelids. In a few second their lips would touch. And they did.

From the sliding door Massie felt her heart break inside of her. She stood there frozen and ready to die. A tear rolled down her eye and she walked off not making a sound. Derrick had no idea.

Massie ran downstairs and passed her friends.

"Massie?" Alicia said concerned all the guys had worried written all over their faces. But Massie didn't stop walking she moved passed the crowds of dancing people and opened the door. She wanted to get out of there and scream her heart out and cry herself to sleep. And the song is right.

Why do we like to hurt so much? Oh why do we like to hurt so much? That's what you get when you let your heart win!
Whoa.

Finished. I'm just kidding we have two more chapters so anyway I'm not sure about the sequel I'll have ideas if it ends with not Massie and Derrick together or if they do.
