It was 4 days from the dance and I still didn't have a date. Will asked Christina out, Zeke asked Shauna out, and Uriah asked Marlene out. So I was the only one who didn't have a date. By now, I decided I wasn't going.

I was walking home with Toby, like always, and I was just hoping he would asked me. I was too scared to ask him myself so I just waited. We were talking about our homework when Lola walks up to us.

" Toby, do you want to go to the Valentine dance with me?" She said.

"Sure" Toby said casually.

By now I was sure I was going to blow.

"Great!" Lola exclaimed " Beatrice are you okay?"

"Yea just perfect!" I said in a girly voice a flashed her the best smile I could do at the moment which I was pretty sure looked like an evil glare.

Lola walked away and Toby began to talk again.

" Hey so do you want to go to my place this time to work on homework or yours?" He asked.

Normally Toby and I wrk on our homework together but based on what just happened I want up for it today.

" Go work on it with Lola." I said and ran away.

When u was running I began to cry. I don't even know why. I didn't expect him to ask me anyway. When I got to the house I ran through the door and up to my room. I could hear Caleb tell "Bea!" But I ignored him.

When I got to my room I continued to cry. I wanted to stop and I tried to but I couldn't. I decided to text Christina, Shauna, and Marlene.

I guess I fell asleep because my mom knocked on the door and woke me up. My eyes were crispy and I guess it was because the tears dried up. I'm so glad I wasn't crying when my mom walked in because I hate crying in front of people.

"Dinners ready." my mom said.

" Can I eat in my room tonight?" I asked.

" Is something wrong honey?" She asked.

"Yes but I'm not ready to talk about it." I said.

" Okay, I'll bring your dinner up here."

"Thanks."

I looked at my phone and I had 5 texts from Toby. I looked at them and it said.

Hey are you okay?

Was it a mood swing?

Are we good?

Hey.

I need help with my homework.

I also got 2 miss calls from him.

I ignored his messages and waited for my food.
