"Klitz, I swear to god if you don't ask her out, I'll kill myself." Eli said as he chugged his drink.
I rolled my eyes at him and said "shut up. I'm not losing her as a friend."
Eli scoffed. "Have fun jerking it for the rest of your life then."

Chapter five Newfound Discovery Penny's POV: "So, the after party will be at Olivia's since her parents are out of town during the ball." Jennie said. Olivia smiled really big while giggling. Hunter said "we also need to start planning for prom too." "Oh, gosh, prom." Jennie held her hands over her heart as she swooned just thinking about it. I was definitely excited for prom. Even though it was months away. When I was younger I always saw myself going with Klitz. It was a fairytale dream I had and I always thought we'd end up together at some point. I quickly realized I had to bury that dream with all the others that never worked out for me. "Who's gonna host the prom after party?" Chase said to his peers. "You!" Derek said causing Chase to laugh. Troy nudged Chase and said "your house is the best party place." "It's Penny's turn to host a party." Chase said. I looked at him and said "oh. Really?" "Everyone has to host a party at some point, duh." Olivia said while rolling her eyes playfully. I looked at the blonde who picked on me in freshman year and nodded. "Penny's house is actually really cool. It's one of those houses from back in the day. The sixties or something." Chase kissed my cheek after speaking. "Ooh, retro." Jennie said while smiling. I nodded and said "yeah. I'm sure I can host one soon." "This weekend. After the winter ball." "I thought we were doing the after party at my house." Olivia said. Chase looked at her and Troy did the same. "I wanna go to the retro house." Jennie whined. Derek gestured to his girlfriend and said "see? She wants to go party at the retro house." Olivia scoffed softly and sent me a death glare. I sighed and wished I'd come to school a little later so I didn't have to have breakfast with them. I enjoyed being around my boyfriend. I just hated his friends. "I gotta go to my locker. It gets stuck and if I have another tardy I'll get detention." I lied through my teeth. I stood up and Troy said "fucking detention." "Yeah, it sucks." I said in a ditzy tone. Jennie giggled at me and Olivia rolled her eyes. Chase stood up to kiss my lips passionately before I walked away. "I'll see you at lunch, babe." He said. I nodded at him and left them all in the cafeteria. I made my way through the halls and going to the front of the school. I heard Eli's loud laugh as I stepped outside. Matt shoved Eli while Klitz was leaning against Matt's car, shaking his head while smiling. My eyes went up and down his lean body, admiring it. He almost looked so attractive. He actually looked cute if I was being honest. I shook my head as if to rid my brain of the thought. I walked fast over to them and Eli noticed me. "Penny Lane has arrived!" I shushed him as people looked over at us. Matt greeted me with a smile and I said "Chase and the others want me to host the after party after the ball." "Holy shit, really?" Klitz asked. I turned to him and nodded. "Yeah. And to say Olivia was pissed is an understatement. And they were talking about prom and stuff. Ugh, I had to get away. I needed to be back with you guys." I wrapped my arms around Klitz's middle and he tensed up. He slowly put his arms around me and Eli said "you're hosting the after party? That's fucking awesome. Please tell your new crew that we're VIP guests." I rolled my eyes and said "you guys will be the first to arrive I hope." I squeezed Klitz and he jumped. "That tickles." He pushed at my arms around him. "Awe, I'm sorry, Klitzy." I pouted up at him. He looked everywhere but me as he started to blush. Making Klitz get all flustered was one of my favorite things. He always seemed to get that way around girls but with me it seemed like it was worse than with other girls. It was probably because the two of us were friends and it was more him being awkward than flustered. I leaned my head on Klitz's chest and said "Chase is my boyfriend and I love spending time with him but his friends suck." "The popular crowd isn't fun?" Eli said. I shook my head and said "no, it's really not." Eli and Matt turned to walk towards the school. I pulled away from Klitz and said "could you come over today? I need some help with calculus." "Sure. I don't mind. Otherwise I'm pretty sure I'd be at Eli's." Klitz said. I half smiled and said "thank you.
