(Vinny's POV)
I walked in and felt nothing but glares come my way... So much for that "warm welcoming" Thomas promised. Truth be told, he is the only reason I came. As we walked through the party, Bianca gripped my arm. "We shouldn't be here... Thomas obviously wasn't be truthful when he said they all wanted us to be here..." I sighed. "Well, we're here now, we can't just walk out. Let's just try to have fun." Bianca nodded and ran off to my mom and dad. I walked by myself, staring down at my phone to avoid awkward eye contact. Suddenly, I heard a familiar voice. "Vin? You showed up!" Thomas's high voice was filled with it's usual enthusiasm. I smiled and bro hugged him. "Only because you begged me over text I don't know how many times!" Thomas laughed. "Sorry about that bro, just trying to get everyone back together for the ten year anniversary of ICON." I smiled, Thomas always was the most dedicated out of all of us. "So what are we waiting for? Let's partay!" I laughed and started dancing, making even more people glare at me. I blushed and looked down. "Or not." Thomas smiled at me sympathetically and patted my back. "Come on, let's go say hi to a few people." I nodded and followed him as he lead me through the room, making me say hi to some faces u recognized. Finally, we got outside. I smiled when I saw Chris and Drea laying together on a beach chair. They are so cute together. My attention was pulled from them by a squeal coming from the pool. A girl I didn't recognize was being chased by Nick Rubiano. Suddenly, she came running my way. I tried to move, but no, we hit into each other and I got knocked into the pool. I resurfaced from beneath the cold water and looked up at her. She blushed and bit her lip, reaching her hand out to me. "Hi I'm Gabrielle... Need some help?"
