A/N: hi guys :)) I made this because it reminded me that I'm drinking with my sister and bsf tomorrow !! ( yayay ) so I'll try post, I don't know yet though <3.

Blair's Perspective:

Blair woke up on Saturday morning with a mixture of excitement and dread. Tonight, there was a party at Mark's house-a big one that practically everyone at Rosendale High School was attending. Blair was looking forward to it; she needed a break from her constant worrying and overthinking. It would be good to see her friends, let loose, and enjoy herself.

But then there was the other part of her, the part that dreaded seeing Miss Hawkins again on Monday and dealing with the confusing feelings that had been plaguing her.

Blair spent the morning doing her usual chores and helping her mom around the house. She tried to focus on the tasks at hand, but her mind kept wandering to the party and the possibility of running into Miss Hawkins there. She knew it was unlikely-Miss Hawkins didn't seem the type to go to student parties-but the thought lingered nonetheless.

After lunch, Blair met up with Sophia to shop for outfits. As they browsed through the racks, Sophia could sense Blair's unease.

"Are you okay, Blair?" Sophia asked, holding up a sparkly dress for Blair to see.

"Yeah, just... you know, thinking about stuff," Blair replied, trying to keep her tone light.

"Stuff like Miss Hawkins?" Sophia said quietly, glancing around to make sure no one was listening.

Blair sighed. "Yeah. I'm trying to move on, but it's hard. I keep replaying our conversations in my head."

Sophia put a hand on Blair's shoulder. "I know it's tough, but maybe tonight will help. You'll be with Tyler and all your friends. Try to have fun and not think about it too much."

Blair nodded. "You're right. I need to let loose a little."

They continued shopping, eventually finding the perfect outfits for the party. Blair chose a sleek black dress that made her feel confident and a little daring.

That evening, Blair got ready for the party, feeling a mixture of excitement and nervousness. Tyler picked her up, and they headed to Mark's house together.

The party was in full swing by the time they arrived. Music blared from the speakers, and the house was packed with students dancing, talking, and laughing. Blair felt a rush of excitement as she and Tyler joined the crowd.

"Hey, Blair! Tyler!" Mark greeted them at the door, a wide grin on his face. "Glad you guys could make it."

"Wouldn't miss it," Blair replied, returning his smile.

They made their way through the throng of people, stopping to chat with friends and grab drinks. Blair found herself relaxing as the night went on, enjoying the music and the company of her friends.

At one point, she and Sophia found a quieter corner to talk.

"So, how are you feeling?" Sophia asked, leaning in so Blair could hear her over the music.

"Better," Blair admitted. "It's nice to just have fun for a change."

"I'm glad," Sophia said, smiling. "You deserve it."

As the night wore on, Blair danced with Tyler and her friends, laughed at jokes, and even played a few party games. For a while, she managed to push all her worries aside and just enjoy herself.

Eleanor's Perspective:

Meanwhile, Eleanor Hawkins was spending her Saturday evening in a very different way. She had declined an invitation to a faculty dinner, preferring a quiet night at home with a good book. She had spent most of the day grading papers and preparing lesson plans, but now she was ready to unwind.

Despite her best efforts, Eleanor couldn't help but think about Blair. She had noticed the girl's distraction in class, the way her smile didn't quite reach her eyes. Eleanor wanted to help, but she knew she had to be careful. She was a teacher, after all, and there were boundaries she had to respect.

As she settled into her favorite armchair with a cup of tea, Eleanor's thoughts kept drifting back to the conversations she had had with Blair. She hoped the girl was finding some comfort in her friends and family.

Blair's Perspective:

Back at the party, Blair was having a surprisingly good time. She had danced with Tyler, played games with her friends, and even had a few drinks. She was starting to feel more like herself again.

As she and Tyler took a break from dancing, they found a quieter spot on the porch to talk.

"You having a good time?" Tyler asked, wrapping an arm around her shoulders.

"Yeah, I am," Blair replied, smiling up at him. "It's nice to just let loose and have fun."

Tyler grinned. "I'm glad to hear it. You deserve it."

Blair leaned into him, feeling a sense of contentment. She was grateful for Tyler's support and understanding.

They spent a few more moments talking and enjoying each other's company before heading back inside to join their friends.

As the night wore on, Blair felt a sense of ease she hadn't felt in a while. She was surrounded by people who cared about her, and for the first time in days, she wasn't constantly thinking about Miss Hawkins.

Eventually, the party began to wind down. Blair and Tyler said their goodbyes and headed home. As they drove back, Blair felt a sense of peace. She knew she still had a lot to work through, but tonight had reminded her that she wasn't alone. She had her friends, her family, and Tyler to support her.

Eleanor's Perspective:

Eleanor spent the evening reading and relaxing, trying to push her worries aside. She knew that being a teacher came with its challenges, and she was determined to do her best for all her students.

As she prepared for bed, Eleanor thought about Blair and hoped the girl was finding some comfort and happiness, but also hoped she was doing something fun on a boring Saturday. She knew that life as a teenager could be tumultuous, but she also believed in Blair's strength and resilience.

Eleanor settled into bed, ready to face whatever the next day would bring. She was committed to being the best teacher she could be, and she hoped that in doing so, she could make a positive difference in her students' lives.

Blair's Perspective:

Blair arrived home, feeling a sense of contentment. The party had been just what she needed-a chance to unwind, have fun, and remember that she was surrounded by people who cared about her.

As she got ready for bed, Blair thought about the conversations she had had with her friends, the laughter, and the dancing. It had been a good night, and she was grateful for it.

Blair lay in bed, her mind finally at ease. She knew she still had a lot to work through, but tonight had reminded her that she wasn't alone. She had her friends, her family, and Tyler to support her, and she was determined to face whatever challenges lay ahead.

With a sense of peace, Blair closed her eyes and drifted off to sleep, ready to face a new day with renewed strength and hope.
