Zander X Female Reader

Episode 3 Part 3

We walked into the party and I was in a sparkly dark red top with black leggings on, I did have a change of clothes in my bag because this did not feel like me. "I feel weird," I comment. "Same." "You both look fantastic!" "We look like you." Stevie stated, "Same difference." I rolled my eyes. "Hey girl!" My friend on the basketball team, Amy, called me over I quickly walked up to her and we started to chat. Her eyes landed on Zander, "Erm... is your boyfriend okay?" She asked and I turned and saw him chugging down some water, "Zander, he's having a wardrobe malfunction, and he's not my boyfriend," She then groaned, "What?" "Come on, he likes you, you like him, please just ask him." I looked back at Zander who was done drinking, he looked at me and gave me a thumbs up, I smiled at him and returned it, "See?" Amy said which brought me back to reality and turned back to her, "Go for it!" I wasn't sure whether Zander liked me back, no matter how much I wish it to be true. 

Kacey pulled me aside and we both found Justin together, "Hey, Stevie's outside," Kacey told him, he checked his hair and adjusted his shirt. "Just remember, be yourself," I say as we take him to Stevie. "Hey, Stevie, look who we found?" Kacey started, "Hey." "Hey." "Welp, it looks like we're a 3rd and 4th wheel and we are all too old for training wheels so... see ya!" I said and we walked off, "Oh we are so good," Kacey commented wrapping an arm around me. "Hell yeah we are," I reply. Kacey then took me to Zander, "Look whose getting reunited!" We smiled at each other and much like what we just did to Stevie, Kacey left us alone, "You enjoying yourself?" I asked and he shook his head 'no' "Can you die from sweating too much?" "Why can't you just unzip it, I'm sure it's not that bad," I went for his zip but he got there before me. Before I could get a reply both Zander and I were picked up by Kevin and Nelson and moved by a V.I.P section. "Guys, we need your help," Kevin started. "And you had to carry us because?" "We need you help getting into the Perf's V.I.P area." I rolled my eyes at the word 'Perf' "Why do you want to get in?" Zander asked, "Because we aren't allowed!" Kevin spoke. "Okay here's the plain," Nelson pointed at me, "You are the Damsel in distress-" "Nope." "Okay, I guess Zander can just distract the bouncer with an injury." "Like Butt cramp?" "No." "Loss of bladder control?" "No." "you swallowed a bug?" "Er..." he turned to me, and I just shrugged, "I'll go with butt cramp," the boys then proceeded to hide and I watched Zander's amazing performance of Butt cramp while trying to conceal my giggle in looking at my phone. 

Once he came back he was very tired and sweating more than he was, I ran to go and get him a drink. I came back and the Perfs were talking to him, "Aren't you hot?" Molly asked. "And you're sweating," Grace added. "Your face is red." "And you are kinda stinky." I ran back with our drinks and got in between Molly and him, "Woah guys, way to crowd a dude," I gave him his drink and he tried his best not to down it but failed miserably. They just walked off disgusted. "I guess you saved me," he commented with a smile. "Yeah, I guess I did," I then noticed how close our faces were, I tried to lean a little closer but he moved back. "Sorry, but they were right, I am quite smelly right now." "You think I haven't smelt worse? I've been to Stevie's house." We both chuckled, "Hey, You wanna go and change into your actual clothes so you can feel comfortable?" He asked and I nodded, "I'll be back in a sec," before I left he gave my hand a quick kiss which I blushed at as I walked away. 

Once I came back Zander had unzipped his jacket to reveal a red shirt which in all honesty I didn't hate it, I then noticed that Kacey was with him, she turned and saw me, "No, why would you change?" I was now in front of her, "I have been uncomfortable all night and this," I gestured to my look, "This feels like me." She sighed then heard Justin say "You're killing me!" and ran off to stop Stevie. "You look beautiful," Zander commented. "Thanks, and for the record, you rock that shirt." "Really?" I nodded. I then notice Kacey stopped the boys from messing with the chocolate fountain and it resulted in everyone nearby getting covered in chocolate, Zander got in front of me to shield me in case but he didn't get any on him. "This is ridiculous Kacey!" Justin yelled at her. "You need to go." Kacey sighed. "Come on guys," we all started to walk away. "Hang on, they don't have to go, they are being totally cool, you're the problem." "You're right, I was so worried about how they were making me look, when I didn't realise how I was making them look, I'm sorry guys, I'll go," Kacey started to walk off but Molly obviously had to say something. "It's for the best Kacey, I'm sure the county fair is still open." "Ooo! You can pet a baby goat!" Kacey continued to leave, I shared a look with my best friend and we were both thinking the same thing. We walked up to Kacey, "Wait, if she's leaving then we are going too," I say. Zander quickly followed us, "Me too." So did Kevin and Nelson, "Me three." "I gotta take a bath." "Why would you all leave?" Justin asked. "Because, If it wasn't for Kacey then none of us would be here right now," I say. "Yeah, she just wanted us to fit in," Zander said taking my hand in his. "You went a little off the deep end," Nelson commented which we all agreed, "But, it's just because she wanted everyone to think we were cool." "You guys are cool," Kacey started, "I should've let you be yourselves, I'm so sorry and Justin, I am sorry that I ruined your party, but I think I know a way we can make it up to you." We all looked at each other smiling.
