Chapter Twenty Four.

I made my way over to where I saw Kris standing with Zoey, a sheepish smile on my face as they stared at me in disbelief. Considering I hated Ashton just earlier, they were probably shocked to see the kiss, and me leaving the hallway with him after disappearing for a bit.

I couldn't help but feel like I was on top of the world as I made my way to them. They whistled at me, a grin on my face as I spun around, laughing softly. "I see you and Ashton made up." Crystal teased, walking up as I let out another laugh. "Girl, what is that on your neck?"

A pink blush covered my face as they all gasped and began to poke fun at me. "Okay, okay! You've had your fun, let's move on to the next topic." I snorted, grabbing a cup and grabbed a random bottle. I filled my glass halfway, grabbing a coke and poured half in as well. "Anybody seen Luke?"

Zoey rolled her eyes slightly. "He's got a girl back in y'all's room. Hey! Maybe y'all both got laid at the same time!" I laughed at her, shaking my head before taking a drink. I grimaced at how strong I had made my drink, sitting it down after. I grabbed Zoey and Kris' hands and began to drag them to the crowd.

All three of us climbed up on the table, helping Crystal climb up as well as we all started dancing together. Guys were whistling at us, girls were cheering at us, it was a great memory to have. I saw Bryanna in the corner, her lips smashed against Luke's, my jaw dropping. I nudged the girls, pointing over at the two, all of us giggling.

"She's been hooking up with Luke every so often since freshman year girl. He's the rebound sex for her." I furrowed my eyebrows, gaping over at Crystal.

"How did I not know this?!" I laughed, her shoulders rising and falling in a shrug.

"To be fair, you've been pretty busy with Ashton and Luke drama." Zoey piped in, my lips pouting as I wrapped the three girls in a tight hug, them returning it.

I huffed, squeezing them for a moment. "I pinky promise, this week will be about everyone. Not just Luke or Ashton drama. I gotta spend some time with my girls." They all seemed happy at this, us resuming our dancing right after.

When a certain song began to play, me and Kris screamed in excitement. "This is our fucking song!" Kris screamed to the other two, wide grins on their face. "Our parts coming up, ready?!"

I nodded, mouthing the words as I waited for the chorus to hit, considering it was the only part she knew.

"And you keep on fallin' baby, figure it out! Just drive slow, straightforward, or I'm walking around! And your dad keeps calling, tell him cut that shit out! Just keep steering, keep steering now!"

We cheered, my mouth continuing to belt out the lyrics. Zoey and Crystal stared at me, my eyes noticing and I finally stopped. "Woah! You have such a pretty fucking voice!" Zoey yelled over the music, my eyes rolling with a grin. I thanked her quietly before we resumed our dancing. I saw Michael walking by, quickly waving to catch his attention.

I bent down, whispering in his ear, him nodding at my words before heading over to the music. "What'd you say?"

"I told him to play a certain song!" I told Crystal, her nodding slightly before Zoey shook my arm lightly. "What, what?" I laughed.

"Did Luke record the sample of the music on his phone?" She asked, her eyes locking onto mine. I shook my head, asking why as she pouted. "I was gonna have you do a practice run! We have a Karaoke machine!"

I shook my head a little, looking around before looking back at her.  "I'm singing it at the concert, that's enough." I chuckled, her shrugging before I finally heard the song starting. I grinned, Crystal smiling wide.
