Chapter 61: Uneasiness

Alicia's Point of View

I walked off the stage with Cheryl and Diana, in complete shock at myself.

Who the hell was that, and what did she do with Ali? I thought.

"Oh my god, that was amazing Ali!" Diana said.

Cheryl was grinning.

I felt my face flush.

"I don't know where that came from..." I said, somewhat quietly.

"Oh, I think I know..." Cheryl said in a sing song voice, giving me a knowing smile.

I gave her a "shut up" look.

Diana just laughed, seemingly not catching on to Cheryl's thought.

"Thanks for letting me join guys, that was a blast. I'm going to go hang with the hubby for a bit," Diana said, smiling at both of us before walking up to the DJ booth, where Billy welcomed her with shock and admiration.

I felt Cheryl elbow me gently.

"You're falling hard for him, aren't you?" Cheryl asked, with a smile on her face.

Oh god...I am...I thought.

I felt my heart start racing a bit in panic.

Cheryl laughed quietly - she must of seen the panic on my face.

"Relax sweetie, I think it's almost guaranteed he feels the same way," Cheryl said.

What if he doesn't...?

"Please don't say anything..." I said quietly.

She picked up on my seriousness, because she rubbed my arm gently.

"I won't," she said reassuringly. "Now come on, let's go back to the booth," she added, and started walking back toward our booth.

I took a deep breath before I started to follow her, but after only a few steps, I stopped and glanced around at the crowd. I felt like I was being watched, and not in the way that my social anxiety could sometimes make me feel. I was positive someone had to be watching me, but I couldn't see anyone paying attention to me.

I felt a sense of unease run through me.

"Ali? You okay?" Cheryl suddenly asked, drawing my attention back to her.

I took one last look around before I focused my eyes back on her, and walked the few steps to catch up to her.

"Yeah...just felt weird for a minute, it's gone now," I replied.

She looked momentarily concerned, but then nodded and started walking again.

When we reached the booth, Jay and Ashley were in the process of exiting the booth, having decided to head to the dance floor.

"Holy crap Ali! I didn't know a voice like that could come out of someone so tiny!" Ashley exclaimed.

I couldn't help but laugh, despite my face flushing a bit.

"Seriously girl, that was awesome," Ashley said with a smile, before her and Jay headed to the dance floor.

Zak and Aaron were also standing now, to let Cheryl and I slide into the booth.
