"Do you have a girlfriend?"

We stared at each other for what felt like forever until I looked away and he gave me a grin.

I peeked at him, seeing his cheeks turning slightly pink.

"No." He said looking back at me, "No I don't have a girlfriend."

"Oh." I murmured still looking at my feet.

The door bell rang-  THANK GOD for doorbells.

"I'LL GET IT!" I said rushing over to the door, trying to hide my very red face.

I walked over to the door opening it slightly. Bad decision. A LOT of people came in, well 5 but still the door knocked back right onto my nose. I wobbled back trying to grasp my nose.

"Shit you killed her Andrew!" I heard a deep voice say. I look up to see 3 random boys, and my 2 best friends staring at me.

"Are you ok Grace?" Maddie and Camille rushed over to inspect me.
I took my free hand to stop them, the other still grabbing my nose.

"I'm fine." I said finally taking my hand off my face. "I'm fine," I repeated scrunching my nose, testing for any broken bones.

"Wow great first impression guys." I heard Alec groan from the couch as he walked over.

"Sorry..." Andrew said giving me a cheeky grin and as Alec ruffled his curly hair.

"Sorry about them," Alec whispered to me. "They're doody heads too."

We chuckled and all sat down in the living room.

We all introduced ourselves, Alec's friends were named Ryan, Andrew, and Josh. Andrew being the one who killed my nose, and Ryan being the one who scolded him for it.

I introduced my friends to everyone. They all seemed friendly towards each other, especially Andrew towards Camille.

"Ooh you have pizza!" Camille said taking the box from the coffee table. "It's mine now."

I laughed as I watched Andrew and Maddie steal a couple slices from her. That girl is sure protective of her food. But then again, so am I.

"So, some junior is throwing a party tonight," Josh said grinning. "Anyone from campus can come."

"Ooh we should totally go." Camille pursued, finally giving up her almost empty pizza box and say down on the couch next to Andrew.

I looked down at the ground.

"That actually sounds like a lot of fun." Maddie said glanced at me with a sorry face.

She was ok with this? She is usually trying to persuade us to NOT go to parties.

"I don't know." I murmured still staring at the ground.

Everyone suddenly had there eyes on me. "Why not?" Andrew asked pouting. "Parties are so fun!"

"She has had some bad experiences at some," Maddie said resting her hand on my shoulder. "But it won't happen again I promise." She stared at me, assuring me I would be ok. I looked a Camille who smiled at me, so I nodded in agreement.
