The game is pretty exciting. When we first arrive, there are already many people scattered across the bleachers.

Me, Harry, Brynn, Niall, Louis, Natalye, Zayn, and Liam sit close to the stairs. There's always a need for concessions.

Throughout the whole game, people were cheering and clapping. Our team actually won.

Harry brought me back home, kissing me goodnight.

"Aren't you gonna come inside?"

"I assume you don't want me staying in your room with you right now."

I shake my head. "I do....I'm just confused. I don't know what I'm supposed to do."

"Me neither."

"I just wanna forget about it."

"Me too."

I tug his hand. "Come on."

We go into my room and Harry plops down on my bed, staring at me.

"I'm gonna go take a quick shower, alright?" I start to head towards the bathroom.

"Alright."

When I turn around, Harry stands in front of me.

"I meant alone."

I try to get into the bathroom, but his hand tugs at my arm. "I don't think so." He pushes me into the bathroom, shutting the door. I laugh, almost forgetting that Courtney and Robert are downstairs.

"Shhh, we don't want the party to end too soon." He kisses my lips before undressing himself.

After Harry leaves the next morning, I start to get ready. Brynn picks me up and we go to a beauty salon, getting our makeup and nails done. I go for French tips. It's classy, but not too bright.

I let my hair naturally fall down my back. Our makeup is done quickly.

When I look into the mirror, I don't even recognize myself. I mean....I know it's me. It just doesn't look like me.

"Whoah!" Brynn says, wide eyed.

It's like I look so much.....happier.

"Anna, you're a babe!"

I giggle nervously.

When we get back to Brynn's house, Natalye meets us there with her hair and nails already done. She looks like a queen in her high heels and sparkly gold dress.

I slip my dress on. Wow! I forgot how amazing it looks. I'm not really big on dresses, but this one is just perfect. Deciding that it's probably a bad idea to wear heels, I go with low cut white converse.

"Ready to go?" Natalye asks. "The limo's here!"

"Limo?"

Natalye comes over to me. "You're babe's looking hot."

I giggle nervously. Every step I take down the stairs creates a new nervous feeling, deeper and deeper.

I'm scared to open the door and see Harry dressed to perfection. I'm scared of this night going wrong. I've never really been to a dance before especially with an escort. What exactly am I supposed to do?

"Are you okay?"

Brynn must notice the fact that I'm just standing here, staring at the doorknob like it's a passageway to Narnia.

"Um, yeah."

I take a deep breath and turn the doorknob, opening it to see Harry perfectly dressed in a black and white suit.
