Hailee: Um...Am I interrupting something here? Anyway we will talk about that later but for the moment we got a big problem. It's time for dinner and Vanessa's gonna make a toast.

As she spoke we heard Vanessa claiming attention from everyone. We went back to our sits praying for everything to go well.

Vanessa: Welcome to the Bal I hope everyone is having a good time at least I know my brother's having a blast.

Everyone turned at me. Apparently gossips were going fast here.

Vanessa: But tonight is a special night we have a first timer with us. Maya stand up please.

I stood up knowing something bad was going to happen, Hailee and Matthew were looking at me with worry on their face.

Vanessa: It's Maya's first Bal. She's not like us. But she's still interesting, while we were working for our parents , making money , being successful, she was taking care of her drugged father. Of course was because he passed away. She couldn't save him, while we were succeeding she was failing. I guess she's so incompetent she couldn't even do that. But well my brother chose her. So welcome to the family Maya!

As she finished her speech I ran to the bathroom, trying to breathe even thought it was difficult. Arrived at the bathroom I leaned my back on the wall. I was out of breath, I felt like I was going to die.

Hailee's pov:

I saw her getting out of the room, I was really worried, I was afraid of knowing what was going to happen.

Matthew: I'm going.

Me: No no, stay here take care of your sister, I'm gonna see her. Don't worry.

I ran out of the room, I heard someone crying. Arrived to the bathroom I saw her leaning against the wall. That's what I was afraid of, she was having a panic attack.

Matthew's pov:

Hailee ran to see Maya, I had the feeling that she was scared of something but I didn't know what it was. I got up to go talk to my sister, but she wasn't at her table. I turned around to see her getting out of the room. I was going to follow her when Austin grabbed my arm.

Austin: Don't follow her it ain't worth it man. Let the brunette go, go get someone like us.

Matthew: You know what...

Mr Grey: He's right you know? You shouldn't date her especially now that we know her passed. Drugged father, mother barely there...

Matthew: Vanessa didn't mention her mother.

Ms Grey: We did some research. We don't want you to date that sort of person.

Maya's pov:

I saw Hailee at the door, I couldn't talk I was suffocating. She came in front of me, she took my hands and tried to calm me.

Hailee: Look at me hun, she's a bitch. Don't listen to her it's not your fault.

I didn't know how to breath normally, felt like dying. Hailee then hugged me, I didn't hugged back I didn't thought I deserved it. She didn't let go.

Hailee's pov:

I knew how this felt I had panic attacks when I was younger. I did what I hoped everyone did when I was having them.

Me: I'm here and I won't let go until you feel better okay. It's not your fault.

My voice was cracking up, I was trying not to cry. She really reminded me of my younger self. She suddenly hugged me back.

Maya: Thank you, I'm sorry.

Me: Why?

Maya: Because you know too well what to do. It means that you went through or are going through that too.

Me: Back when I was younger, I use too have some all the time.

She understood, it felt good. I dried her tears while she was drying mine.

Me: Okay come on, get up. I'm doing your make up and we're gonna show to this bitch that you didn't say your last word.

Vanessa: Well you can tell her now.

Maya's pov:

I saw Hailee starting to lean against the wall turning her back to Vanessa.

Vanessa: Oh, you were crying Maya. Well you should be. Deeply you know I'm right.

I saw Hailee turn around, facing Vanessa. As I was about to answer, Hailee slapped Vanessa.

Hailee: You have two options either you go back to your fucking table and never talk to her again either I finish you right now and you won't ever be able to walk again.

At this moment Vanessa walked out of the room with a shocked expression on her face.

Me: What was that?

Hailee: Well, um...hehe...I...I have slight anger issues.

We both stared to laugh, all of this was just really crazy. We remade our make up before we decided to go back to the bal.

Matthew: Where were you? It's been 45minutes I was worried. And why does Vanessa as one of her cheeks red ?

Me: Don't worry.

Hailee: Yeah it's girl stuff.

Me: And you don't want to meddle?

Hailee: Do you?

Me: I'm chocked Matthew.

Hailee: That's not a gentlemans behavior.

Matthew: But I...

Hailee: That's what I though.

Me: Lets go dance!

Hailee and I danced all night not a worry in our head but lots of alcool in our stomachs. Hailee wasn't drunk but I was. The party was over so I went to see Matthew.

Me: Hey Matty you look hot Mister.

Hailee: Looks like someone took too much champagne, come on we're going home. Matthew I'm moving in with her tomorrow, you're coming.

Matthew: I think I have plans tomorrow.

Hailee: Well move your plans cause it wasn't a question.

We went home, Hailee putted me to bed and retired to the couch.
