My heart was thumping out of my chest and the butterflies we fluttering in my stomach. I started having a mini panic attack as Alex and I pulled up at his party. Teenagers were all over the place dancing,drinking, and making out. I was nervous and I couldn't believe I was actually here.

Logan would kill me if he knew that I was here.

There I go again thinking about Logan. God, I have to get him out of my head.

"Hey, Zoe." Alex said softly from beside me in the driver's seat. "You're going to be okay. I'll be by you the whole night." He placed his hand on my knee. "Forget about him alright? Just let go and have fun." He took his hand off my knee and I nodded letting out a breath I didn't know I was holding. "Okay, I can do this."

He smiled and opened his door and got out. I did the same and walked with him to the house.

The party was already in full swing and the guy who was throwing the party just arrived. When people saw me and saw who I was with, they started staring and whispering. I always thought it was because I was with Logan but now I'm with Alex and they still do it. Alex put his arm around my waist to guide me through the crowd. "Just ignore them." He said into my ear.

"I want to introduce you to my friends." He said as we reached a group of people. There was about four of them, two girls and two boys. One girl had blonde hair and the other had brown. The two boys both had brown hair. The guys were both really attractive and I did recognize them from school. I think they both play football. The girls I wasn't so sure but they do look fairly familiar.

We reached his friends and we caught their attention immediately. The guy on the left raised his eyebrows once we saw me. The other guy smirked and raked his eyes all over my body. "Well well who do we have here?" The guy checking me out asked.

Alex smiled," Guys this is Zoe Taylor and Zoe these are my friends." He said introducing us. "That's Chris," he said pointing to the other checking me out. "That is Nathan," he pointed to the other guy, "and this is Hannah and Paige." He pointed to the two girls. They seemed to not really like me. They just stared at me then walked away. Whatever I don't like them either.

The guys however, wouldn't stop eye raping. Granted, I was kinda asking for it considering the outfit I was wearing. I was wearing tight black skinny jeans and a long sleeved sequin shirt that showed a little bit of cleavage. The shoulders of the shirt were cut out and the sleeves started back again right below my shoulder.

"I'm going to go get a drink. You want one?" Alex asked me once he got done talking to his friends.

I shook my head, "I'll get one in a minute." I replied. He eyes me curiously, "Come here," he told me to the side to where no one was at the time.

"Look," he said putting his hands on my shoulders and making eye contact with me, "Let loose tonight. Trust me, it will help with the broken heart."

I nodded, "Okay, I will."

I did tell Alex about Logan breaking my heart when he told me he was going to the dance with Ashley. I wasn't going to but Alex insisted. He was nice about it though and he promised me a perfect night to let go.

He disappeared into the crowd to go get a drink and I decided to walk around a bit. Maybe I can find someone to talk to or hang out with.

A popular fast song with a crazy beat started playing and everyone started dancing. It was hard making my way through the mass of people. When I reached the kitchen, I bumped into somebody. "Sorry, Are you okay?" The familiar voice said. I looked up and was face to face with Peyton. "Zoe!" He eyes furrowed in confusion, "What are you doing here?" He asked surprised.
