Tiffany's POV
"Natalie seriously open the door!" I yell while banging on her door. She locked herself in her room the minute we got back from school. She didn't say a word on the drive back.
"GO AWAY!" she yells. Normally, if something would bother her, she would hide it. This must really be bothering her if she's like this, whatever 'this' is. I bang on the door once again. No answer.
I sigh and head downstairs. There's no point in trying to get her to open the door. Natalie's too stubborn. I walk to the kitchen and open the fridge. I grab a bottle of coke out, turn on my laptop and scroll through my twitter feed. Then I see Natalie walk downstairs, holding a pillow, with tears in her red eyes.
"Wanna tell me now?" I ask. She sits across from me. I wait for her to say something.
"Matt and I broke up today," she finally says. I don't say anything. I just walk up to her and hug her. She hugs back tightly and begins to cry silently.

Natalie's POV
I wake up on the couch in the living room. "How did I get here?" I think. I check the time: 10:30 P.M. I rub my tired eyes. I sigh and sit up, my stomach grumbling. "TIFFANY!!" I call for her, wondering if she's asleep yet. She walks in holding clothes.
"Put these on," she says. I take them, frustrated.
"Why?" I whine.
"We're going out." She walks away and leaves me alone to change. "Going out? Yeah right." I throw the clothes onto the couch and walk into the kitchen. I grab two slices of bread and place them in the toaster. Tiffany walks down in a bright blue, laced dress.
"What are you doing?" she asks, hands on her hips.
"Making toast," I say casually.
"No, you're going out." She pulls onto my arm and drags me out the front door.
"I didn't even change! Where are we going?"
"Out," she says as she locks the door. I sigh and follow her to the car. As I get inside, she looks me up and down, and shakes her head. I roll my eyes and put on my seatbelt. "Why is she so dressed up anyways." I pout.
~~~~~~~
We arrive at a club. I open my mouth in shock, eyes wide.
"You're taking me here?!" I panic.
"I gave you your clothes, you were just too stubborn to put them on," she replies. She has a devious smile on her face and walks into the club. I quickly follow. The club was dark and there was a table in the corner. "Thank goodness." I walk to the dark table and sit down. Tiffany comes back with a couple of shots.
"We are here to have a good time and to get your mind off that jerk," she says. I'm not much of a drinker, but I pour the burning liquid down my throat. Tiffany continuously looks around, as if she's waiting for someone.
"Who are you looking for?" I ask. She quickly turns to me and shakes her head.
"No one." She smiles to herself. I eye her mysteriously. I follow her eyes to the front door, where five people walk in. It's too dark to see them properly, but Tiffany instantly smiles. She waves them over. "Is she hooking me up with people? Is this a blind date?!" I tap Tiffany on the shoulder and she turns around, still smiling.
"I have a surprise for you," she says. I stand up, frustrated, until I see the five faces, right in front of me.

Jay's POV
~ 30 minutes before ~
"Jay, wake up." I feel someone nudge me. I groan and turn onto my side. I slowly open my eyes to see Nathan standing in front of me.
"Get up," he says again. I reach over for a pillow and throw it at him. He catches it and throws it back. "We're supposed to be at the club in 10 minutes so get up." I start to close my eyes but Nathan flicks me in my ear.
"OW!" I yell and give him a stern look. He brushes it off and points to the washroom. I shake my head.
"I don't wanna go."
"Jay, you haven't been out for a whole week! You need fresh air, and more importantly, you need to forget about her." I flinch at the thought of her. Nathan's right. I need to get out of the house. "Maybe this will be good for me. Maybe I can find someone new." I push myself off the bed and walk into the washroom. I lean over the sink, looking at myself in the mirror. I look like a mess. I wash my face and look at myself again. I hear a knock on the door.
"You ready mate?" It was Siva. I nod my head.
"Yeah, just let me change." Siva nods in understanding and walks out of the room. "This is going to be a long night."
~~~~~~~~
We walk into the club and search for Tiffany. I look at the bar, craving for a drink. Siva nudges me on the shoulder and points to a table near the corner. I squint my eyes to find Tiffany waving her arms, a girl beside her hiding in the shadows. We walk towards them and I see the girl clearly. She has long, thick brunette hair, with small curls on the bottom and light blue eyes that could stand out anywhere. She stands up, looking upset, and then flustered once she sees us.
