With the first steps I take into the building, I'm greeted by the unsurprisingly familiar glares and awkward glances from my fellow camarades. The feeling that nothing has changed enveloped me warmly. I easily spotted Brud in the busy hallways because he's, a giant. Auzzie found us shortly. Apparently he spent all summer getting over Dancy. He told us he actually met a girl named Lola in Bueno Aires but he knows he'll never see her again. At least he knowns not to give himself false hope, it's the easiest way not to get hurt. Anyways, he told us his braces are coming off soon so that's good. Brud mastered his levels and extra classes to be an assistant at his local dojo. He helps children control and channel their anger into useful energy. He made a friend with a young prodigy whom he's been helping emotionally train and got a close bond with him in doing so. He gets paid well and he's happy. He's also learning how to read music sheets which I think is great.

I was about to speak when Preston, and Dancy joined in our conversation. I was getting nervous. "I have an announcement!" Preston said gleefully. Trying to calm myself down, I'm thinking, what's the worst that can happen. "Dancy and I are dating." he confessed with a smile. That. I just don't know what consumed me all of the sudden. The words he said tore me apart. I felt dizzy immediately. My receptors were malfunctioning. I couldn't focus nor pinpoint where I was. My vision was getting dark and I fainted.

I wake up surrounded by white light. Refocusing my vision, I notice I regained conscience in the nurse's office. Next to me are four worried faces. "Are you okay?" Preston asked. "I'm fine." I answered not being able to look him in the eyes. I caught Brud's worried yet understanding gaze, knowing I'm gonna have to talk to him later. "I'm going to get my books." I say before leaving the room. I felt them staring at me. Probably because they never saw me act that way. I jus didn't feel like putting an act right now. 

After our classes, we went into Preston's basement, as usual. "Are you sure you're fine?" he questioned, going down the stairs. "I'm okay!" I answered playfully, knowing I was lying through my teeth. "So how did this summer romance bloom?" Auzzie asked grinning mischievously. I don't want to hear this I mean seriously, sometimes he's just so clueless."Well, ever since that dinner date, I kind of felt something special for him. The way his icy blue eyes to his charm, and cute smile. I couldn't stop thinking about him. None of the boyfriends I had tried to cheer me up, make me laugh like he did. They just gave gifts and flowers, hoping I'd take them back. At first, I thought that's what i wanted, but Preston made me realize so much more. Continuing onto this summer, I had went to the beach for the first days of summer. I was about to bring drinks for my friends, but l bumped into Preston spilling all our smoothies. I felt so embarrassed and tried to wipe the juices of him but it just made things worst. After the incident, we spent the rest of the day together until his little sister, who's quite a character caught us. So he then asked me out to dinner and I agreed. He left with his family and I told the girls to continue whatever plans we had without me. He planned a surprise, which I don't normally like because they usually end bad but he somehow made this one of the best by bringing us to this awesome place near by. It was pretty casual. I actually ate on a date for once, knowing he wouldn't judge me. We danced the rest of the night away admiring the stars in the night sky. We spent the summer having fun at the beach, around the city, really just making the most of our time. He was one of the sweetest guys planning all of the activities for us and treating me like not just Dancy Cologne, but a human being. But the best was last night after the L. D. O. S. (Last Day Of Summer) music festival, he brought home, in front of my balcony and got dot down on one knee, asking me to be his girlfriend. I said yes with no doubt. But the biggest and kindest gesture anyone's ever done for me came next. He slid a promise ring on my finger. " Dancy told with excitement, lifting her left hand with a jeweled knot band. "Wow! Didn't know you were quite the romantic." I sarcastically remarked. "Yeah man! I should of been the one asking you for advice on the ladies." Auzzie implied. Everyone started laughing ignoring the tone I had used earlier. Afterwards, Preston came by Dancy and kissed her. Great, we get to watch a sickening make out session. I got up and left. I saw Brud hesitate to follow me and decided against it for the best. He knows I need to be alone. I was done playing little miss innocent. The mall was still open so I went shopping for a whole new wardrobe. I need a change to be able to move forward with the others.

By the time I got home, it was pretty late. I just ended up binge watching my favorite J-dramas. I can't wait for tomorrow, they won't know what hit them...
