House party

Evi:
The next day I open my eyes and the first thing that pops in my head is the kiss from Bill, or the almost kiss. I can't believe I actually turned Bill Kaulitz down! My 16 year old self would kill me.
I get up from my bed and walk to the bathroom. I quickly brush my teeth and wash my face before I walk downstairs. I walk to the kitchen where my mom is.
"Hi, mom."
"Hi, honey. There has been a visitor for you."
"A visitor?"
She nods. "Bill was here earlier today, one hour ago." I frown my eyebrows. Bill? Why was he here so early? I think to myself and look at the clock on the wall in the kitchen. It's already 12 o'clock so it's not really that early.
"I'll send him a text or go over later today."
I pour myself a cup of coffee and walk into the living room, where Nick is watching TV like always since we moved here. He was pretty social back home, I guess he still needs to get used to everything.
"Are you going to sit in front of the TV all day again?" I sit down on the couch next to my brother and take a sip of my coffee.
"You wanna go to the city together?"
He looks at me for a moment. "Me, shopping? No thanks! Can't you ask Bill or something?"
I roll my eyes and take another sip of my coffee.
"Fine, I'll just go alone."
"Did they behave themselves yesterday?"
The moment with Bill at the front door crosses my mind, but I know better than to tell my brother. "Of course."

I dicide to go to the city anyway, even without my brother. He can sit in front of the TV as long as he want but I'm not gonna sit inside all day when it's a beautiful sunny day. I ride my bike to the city and I walk the last part. I walk past all different stores and walk inside some of them. When I walk out of the store again I see Brenda and Leen coming my way. I wanna run back into the store as I hear one of them calling my name.
"Evi!"
"Hi." I say against my will and turn my head to look at them.
"Sorry from before. I was jealous." Brenda says.
I look at her somewhat confused. "I'm not here to get a boyfriend, especially not my neighbours."
"I think he likes you."
I shake my head and say: "No, not like that."
"He looks at you in a certain way. I only see that look in his eyes when he likes someone. Anyway, you wanna go to the party tonight?"
"I don't know. Maybe three days in a row is a little bit to much."
"It's still summer vacation, you have to enjoy it while it lasts!" She tries to convince me.
"Okay fine, I'll see you there."
"Nine o'clock!" She looks at me with a big smile on her face before she turns around and they both walk away from me.

Not long after that I dicide to go back home.
I put my bike back in the garage and go inside. My mom is still in the kitchen and she looks at me when I come in.
"How was the city?"
"Good, I bought a dress." I hold the bag I have in my left hand in the air and walk towards her. "And I also bought new earrings and a necklace. They go so well with the dress!" I say enthusiastically. I show my mom everything I bought.
"Is it okay if I go to a party tonight?"
"Are Bill and Tom going?"
I assume they will be there so I just nod.
"Okay, be carefull."
"I will!" I put everything back in the bag and walk upstairs to my room. I turn on my laptop and check some messages I have on Facebook. One is from Kim, my best friend from Belgium.
After a few minutes I close my laptop again and start to think about what Brenda said. Does Bill really have feelings for me? Or is it just the fact that she's jealous? He did try to kiss me last night, but that was probably just because of the alcohol. I shake my head and get up from my chair. I walk to the bathroom to take a shower and by the time I'm done with everything it's time to leave for the party.
I didn't hear from Bill or Tom today and I'm a little late so I decide to walk to the party.

When I get to the party I don't see anyone outside. So I assume they are already inside. I take my phone, just to be sure and text Bill.

Evi: Hi Bill, are you guys already at the party?
Bill: We dicided to have a drink at home with some friends. You wanna come?
Evi: I'm meeting up with Brenda and Leen. I thought (and hoped) you guys would be here aswell.
Bill: They are at a concert.
