And She Danced. ||✅ *Undergoing Construction*

Chpt. 17 ~ Talk about Thirsty

It was up until 7 when things got crowded.

I was still hanging out by the pool, barbecued chicken in my plate, phone in hands, ignoring the muggles around me.

"Muffin?"

"What's up, gay?", I replied, looking up at calum.

He rolled his eyes and took a seat beside me, putting his feet in the water.

"Why aren't you hanging out inside. There's food in there, and Vanessa, thats her name, right? Yeah, she's inside too, talking to Skylar and a bunch of other people."

I shrugged. "We aren't talking."

I shot me a weird look got up, pulling me along too.

Holding on to my plate, I glared at him.

"We're going inside."

I rolled my eyes but didn't protest.

He wasn't kidding when he said it was crowded, I could hardly move.

Vanessa was talking to Skylar.

No, not talking, flirting.

I know she is, she always twirls her hair when she's into a guy.

Some nerves she has.

I marched over there, ignoring calum's calls.

"Hey Vanessa. Skylar."

"Hey Ali", Skylar said slinging his hand over my shoulders.

Vanessa shot me a glare.

I smiled.

"You two know each other?", sky asked.

"Mmmm, used too, then some people change." Nessa sweetly replied.

I furrowed my eyebrows at her and shook my head.

"And some people need to check their attitudes", I muttered.

Skylar looked from Vanessa and me. Then shook his head.

"Why the hell did you run off like- oh i get it. You must be vanessa", Calum soon came by my side.

Ness smiled and nodded.

"Yeah, Ali told me a lot about you."

Nessa's genuine smile instantly turned fake.

"Well, um, I'm going to hang out with sandy, coming?", I said, wanting to get them away from her.

I dont know why, just for fun, I guess.

"Um sure...", Skylar said.

Calum, obviously on my side said, "Oh you don't know her, Vanessa, but feel free to enjoy the party, nice meeting you", before pulling Skylar and me through the crowd.

I love that boy!

"I sensed tension between you two and that Vanessa girl, something up?"

"Oh nothing", I sighed, "what's up with you two?"

"Nothing."

"Really, sky? You expect me to believe that?"

"You should. She's not my type. Honestly, she came on too strong, almost- no, really desperate. Plus, I've got my eyes one someone. Someone special."

Awwwww, so cah-ute! little sky's got a cah-rush!

"Really?! Who?", I asked nudging him.
