Luna's POV

Nick has been hanging out with Shawn, Zaray and me a lot lately. I'm not complaining though, I really enjoy his company. It was nice having another guy friend besides Shawn.

"So my friend Jack is having a party tonight, you guys should come." Nick said.

We all looked at each other. Zaray and Shawn were always up for a party but me on the other hand, wasn't. I always felt so out of place and awkward. Not to mention I hate alcohol.

"please Luna" Zaray whined. Shawn looked at me, trying to make a puppy face, he knew I could never say no to him.

"fine" I finally said. Nick, Shawn, and Zaray all smiled as I rolled my eyes.

"I'll text you guys the details" Nick said.

"Come over to my house after school so we can get ready!" Zaray said to me with excitement in her voice.

Something was going to go wrong, something always goes wrong when I go to a party. Like the time I caught my now, ex boyfriend cheating on me.

Few hours later

Here I am, at Zaray's house. I keep telling myself that the party will be fun and that I can just follow Nick or Shawn around, but then I realized how weird it is that I talk to myself.

"So what are you going to wear?" Zaray asks me while applying mascara on her eyelashes.

"uh I was planning on just going like this" I say, pointing at my ripped skinny jeans, band tee, and flannel.

"You are kidding, right?" she asks me.

I shake my head. I wasn't the type of girl to wear dresses and skirts and do her make up. I just put on what I find and so what if people don't like my style? I stopped caring about what others thought about me a long time ago.

"You are wearing this." she says, throwing a striped dress at me.

I put the dress on and I must admit, I feel pretty confident. Zaray pulls me to where her hair curler is and begins to lightly curl my hair. Finally, she finishes my make up and I look in the mirror. I smiled at my reflection.
(just imagine Luna looking like the attached image)

I jumped as I heard the door bell.

"Shawn must be here!" Zaray yells, from the bathroom.

We walked down stairs and said bye to Zaray's brother. He was honestly the cutest thing ever. As I walked out the door I felt the cold air hit my face.

"you still look like a potato" Shawn says to me.

"you still look like a fuck boy" I say with a grin on my face.

I tripped on my own foot, but luckily Zaray was next to me to help me regain my balance. Why did I let Zaray convince me into wearing heels? I get in the car and close my eyes, as Shawn drives us to Jack's house.

I see Nick waiting outside the huge house and I smile to myself. He actually looks really good. I mean he always looks good I guess but???!????

I slowly walk out of the car and towards Nick, carefully trying not to fall on my face.

"hey ugly!" I yell to Nick.

"Will you ever compliment me?" Nick asks.

"that's funny, no" I say with a laugh.

-

I've been following Shawn all night. Zaray was with Cameron, her boyfriend. I'm not surprised. Shawn has been staring at this girl for about 15 minutes. I think she's in my History class.

"Just go talk to her" I tell him.

"Yeah, can't do that" Shawn says, looking a little nervous.

"She's really nice and you are really sweet and single so, go flirt with her. You'll thank me later." I say, trying to boost his confidence.

He looks at me with a nervous smile and walks up to her. I start smiling as I see them laughing together. I might as well go look for Nick now. I don't like being alone at a party.

Finally, after walking around the house for 10 minutes, I see Nick's brown hair. I was going to scare him by jumping on his back until I hear my name come out of Jack's mouth.

"I see you brought Luna. Great idea! The more time you spend with her, the faster she'll fall for you." Jack said.

"About that...I don't think I can do it" Nick said with a sigh.

"What do you mean you can't do it? You have to do it unless you want everyone to see your naked ass. You shouldn't have agreed to the dare if you couldn't do it." Jack said, obviously annoyed.

"How will I even know she's in love with me?" Nick asks.

"You have to make her say three words. I love you." Jack said with a grin.

I was ready to slap that grin off of his face and yell at Nick, but I can play games too. Nick has no idea who he's messing with.

I decided to keep Lauren as Luna because I'm horrible at making decisions. It really feels great when you know where your story is going and you have all these ideas. Okiee yeah, hope you liked the chapter.
