Luna's POV:

Making my way toward my drawer, I looked through the many films that I had and became indecisive on what movie Eli and I should watch. But the feeling of Elijah's hand grabbing my shoulder made me flinch as I turned to look at him...

"Luna, I'm sorry...but something important came up. I promise I'll make it up to you though, okay."

He explained apologetically while planting a sudden kiss on my forehead.

"Where are you going?"

I asked him in a disappointed pout while crossing my arms.

"It's nothing for you to worry about, just stay here and I'll call you later tonight. Make sure you lock the door when I leave."

He said with a reassuring smile as he held me tightly before leaving...

The sounds of his footsteps faded as the echoing of the door could be heard being shut right after. I immediately felt lonely again... being home, all to myself. It becomes almost suffocating. But I shouldn't let that overtake me, so I looked over at the clock and was shocked to see how late it was getting! I didn't realize how much time had passed, but then again...I guess when you spend time with someone you love...time doesn't seem to matter.

However, I'm very curious about who he was talking to on the phone earlier. Flooding myself with questions, I heard a faint ringing coming from my kitchen! It was my phone! I forgot I had left it in my bag! Sprinting down the hallway, I grabbed my backpack from the kitchen and began searching for my phone before answering it...

"Hello, Alexa? How are you calling me right now? I thought your parents took away your phone?"

I asked her as I made my way back to my room...

"Hey, I know it sounds surprising but I was able to convince my parents to give me back my phone...as long as I promise to keep my grades up this time! Lucky me! Anyways, I called to ask if you wanted to go to the party tonight...I know I asked you during lunch, but you should come! It will be fun..."

"I don't know, I wouldn't feel comfortable being around people who drink-"

"I promise you it will be fine, it's not like everyone just goes to get drunk, this is your chance to meet people and make new friends. Come on, please! For me! Your best friend that you love so much!"

Alexa pleaded, releasing a sigh, I looked out the window to see the many stars already covering the night sky. Maybe...I should go, it would be a good distraction. Better than being home alone...

"Okay...fine, I'll go. But I'm not drinking or dancing-"

"You'll come! Really?! Oh my god! I love you so much, you won't regret it! I'll have my boyfriend drive us over in a bit, see you soon!"

"What?! Hey...Hello?!"

Before I could say anything, she had already hung up on me. Looking down at my phone, I rubbed my tired eyes before I decided to get ready. Hope I don't regret going, I don't wanna second guess myself but...Eli did tell me not to go. Then again, he didn't tell me where he was going tonight...should I let him know that I'm going to the party? It's not like I'm going alone. But as I tried calling him, I kept getting sent to voicemail. Strange, he always answers my calls?

"I guess I'll just send him a message..."

I said to myself as I made my way outside the house, locking the front door, I began to wait until Alexa's boyfriend pulled along the driveway. Though I would occasionally look back at my phone to see if Eli had read my text...

My attention was then brought to the sounds of a car suddenly honking! Looking over at the driveway, I immediately smiled at the sight of Alexa poking out her head through the passenger window as she waved me down! Making my way towards the car, I stopped in my tracks the moment I saw what Alexa was wearing, her short skirt, and crop top didn't leave much to the imagination. I'm surprised she can wear that so confidently, I can never. Though I am jealous of her perfect figure...I'll forever just wear jeans and simple shirts for the rest of my life...
