Min Ho's Madness party.

To make it fair, it was my idea at first, but then Kitty was the one who dragged me into it.

We walked into that venue knowing damn well we were the two hottest people there. Kitty looked great, just very emo. I put on the exact opposite color to her: white. I wore a white satin mini dress with lace lining the top and long, matching gloves. I thought they were a nice touch.

"We look good," I whispered in Kitty's ear.

She groaned. "I can't be standing next to you. It makes me look bad."

I laughed as we walked through the doors. Instantly, heads were turned. Eyes were glued on us. People whispered behind their hands. I heard "Min Ho's girlfriend" and "I thought she wasn't coming." I just strolled past them, Kitty at my heels, and didn't spare them a second glance.

"I'm going to find Q and Florian," she said. I nodded and followed her. The music was blasting in my ears, and the whole place was dark yet alight with vibrant colored lights flashing around.

"Woww, you two look stunning!" Florian complimented us instantly.

"Drop dead gorgeous." Q agreed.

"Thanks!" Kitty exclaimed. "We're... well, you know."

"Putting on a show?" Florian mused. I smiled.

"You know it. Kitty's here to find someone to kiss because she's mad about how ungrateful Dae is. I'm just here to tease Min Ho... I mean, it's his party, but I'm mad at him."

"You could bag anyone at this party. Everyone's going to lose their mind when they see you." Florian encouraged. I grinned, knowing he was right.

We three watched Kitty make some questionable choices in 'boy shopping,' as Florian called it.

"Hey, Kitty, you look amazing—" Dae began, but we left instantly.

"Try apologizing first next time." I advised him lightly. Keep in mind I still thought he was an ungrateful ex who actually received Kitty's necklace.

"Sorry," Q whispered. Dae just stood, stunned, as we walked away.

I spotted Ray sitting at the bar talking with a group of girls and decided to approach him. I didn't want to end up on bad terms with such an important figure in the school.

"Ray." I addressed him curtly. He immediately looked up and gave me an endearing smile.

"Excuse me," he told the people surrounding him. All of them got up, shot me an unpleasant look, and walked away.

I sighed and took a seat next to him. "Hi, Ray."

"So we're no longer ignoring each other?" he asked with raised eyebrows, "Or are you just ignoring Min Ho and that's why you've come to talk to me?"

"The second one," I said without shame. He grinned.

"That's funny. I thought he would've learned by now to keep a girl. Especially when she happens to be the daughter of a world-famous celebrity."

"Yeah, I'm just gonna forget that you almost beat him up, because that was also funny."

"You two are officially dating now, then?"

"Yes and no. I can't stand him sometimes; he's got the emotional maturity of a five-year-old."

"Let me guess. You want him to see us together and get jealous because you're mad at him for meeting up with Lulu last night."

I gave him a very peculiar look. "Does everyone know about that?"

"When you have connections, rumors spread easily," he explained. "People claim they saw you arguing with both of them, but I didn't think it was true until you just confirmed it."

I looked over his shoulder to see Florian very secretly taking out a metallic flask and pouring something into his, Q, and Kitty's drinks.

I saw Kitty pulling out her phone behind him, and something in my gut told me it was bad news.

Quickly excusing myself, I shoved past him and snatched her phone from her grasp. 

"Woah, woah, Kitty!" I exclaimed. "What are you doing?"

"Calling Alex and telling him the truth," she answered, her words slurring.

"Um yeah, no. I'm confiscating this for the night." I shook the phone in her face and put in my bag.

"Nooo, I have to apologize to Alex."

"Well if you do, you're going to have to apologize to me later for ruining my night. Let's get you settled."

She blinked slowly at me. "Where?"

"Q!" I yelled, gesturing him over. "Can you dance with Kitty and make sure she doesn't do anything stupid?"

"Definitely," Q called back. He and Florian grabbed her quickly.

The dance floor was loud and rather overwhelming, but I didn't mind. I squinted when I thought I saw someone I recognized in the crowd. When people parted and stopped blocking my view, I realized I was watching Min Ho dance in the center of the floor. When he spotted me, he grinned and walked over.

"Hey, can I have a sip?" he asked us. "I'm thirsty."

 Q, who was very preoccupied with Kitty, absentmindedly handed him the entire bottle. "Yeah, just give me a second."

"Thanks," Min Ho called, and with a charming smile, disappeared back into the crowd.
