"Are you sure? You're gonna miss out on a lot!"

"Who am I gonna go with Dare? And don't you tell me I could go with you. You're already going with someone. I don't want to ruin that." I said as I sat next to him at the lunch table.

"You won't ruin it. Sarah is not those other girls who gets jealous. We could still dance. C'mon, you're my best dance partner." He said, nudging me. "I don't have anything to wear."

"We'll go find something. Sarah's got good taste in fashion." He said. I sighed and buried my face into the table. "I'm just not gonna go, okay? Besides, I've got my kid brother Dallas to take care of."

"Whatever you say then." He murmured.

"Y/n, I'm hungry." Said Dallas.

"Oh my-- I'm sorry, Dal. I forgot to buy groceries. Is it okay if we just eat leftovers? I promise tomorrow I'll make you some macaroni." I said. He sighs and sits at the table. "Okay then." He said.

While warming up the leftovers, I heard a knock.

"Dallas, can you get the door please?" I said. He got up and went to the door. I heard muffled talking, all I hears was,

"Hey kid, where your sister?" That sounded like Darry. "Yeah she's here." I heard Dallas say. "Y/n! It's for you!" He shouted.

I turned off the stove and went to the front door to see, Darry and his partner, Sarah all dressed up.

"Darry, Sarah. What are you guys doing here?" I asked.

"I am not going to the dance without my best friend." Said Darry. "What?"

"Well, me and Darry thought we should get you to the dance. Everything's boring without you. We need your energy in there. Besides, your band is playing and you're the lead singer! You're important!" Said Sarah.

"What? They are? Okay but, I have nothing to wear." I said. "Oh I got you something nice and Darry told me you don't like dresses so I got you something that you might like that isn't a dress." She said.

"Well I have to take care of my brother." "He can come with us, right kid? You wanna go with us to the dance?" Darry said. Dallas was jumping up and down, excited to go.

"Umm okay then. I'll go get changed." I said. "Here." Said Sarah as she hands me an outfit. "I'll help you with your hair once you're done changing."

I came out of the room with my tuxedo that Sarah gave me and my styled hair that Sarah also did for me.

"Well look at you. A suit does really suit you." Said Darry. I nudged him.

"Dallas, you look nice. Where'd you get that?" I asked him. He was wearing a blazer. "Oh that's my brother's, borrowing it." Said Darry. "Okay..."

"Well, let's go!" Said Sarah.
