~Drew's POV~

The minute I smashed my lips to hers everything seemed to slot into place. The world around us was gone, and it was just us, like a piece of me ha been completed. When we broke apart she smiled shyly at me, and I couldn't help but have the biggest possible smile on my face.

"There you guys are!" Exclaimed Levi "Moms been looking for you guys!"

"Sorry we just came out here to get some air" said Lily still slightly flushed.

"Well go and tell her your fine, I think she wants to leave" Levi orders.

Lily looks at me one more time before heading off inside, and I suddenly feel an emptiness. Levi walks over to me, and it feels awkward. I just kissed his sister, my best friends sister!

"I appreciate you looking out for her" Levi says simply "I'm glad you all get on, I can tell you guys are close"

I laugh nervously, not really knowing what to say, do I admit it? No, I can't, he'd never forgive me. Instead I just stand there, and act normal.

"Yeah Lily's is an extraordinary person" I say

"She gets it from her brother" Levi winks at me laughing.

If only he knew...

~Lily's POV~

I walked away from Levi and Drew hastily to prevent suspicion. I was so confused. Do I like Drew? We've know each other a few months, if that. I saw the look of disappointment in his eyes before I left, and I felt it too. Before I could think much more Austin skipped over to me.

"Come and dance" he said playfully. "Please everyone else has dance partners, and I don't want to dance with Nate"

"Okay" I laugh, this would hopefully get my mind off things.

The song was upbeat and fast, nothing like the slow dance Drew and I had shared. I jumped around waving my arms and Austin almost seemed hyper with the way he was moving around the dance floor. I laughed dancing next to Austin, copying his movements. We leapt around the crowd of people, sweaty and exhausted.

"This is amazing!" I shouted over at him to which he replied with a thumbs up.

When we had finally finished dancing after a couple songs I went to find my mom and Austin followed me. I saw Linda talking to one of her friends so I went over to see if she knew anything.

"Hey Mrs Renolds" I smile at her

"Lily! How wonderful that you came! And who's this?" She says seeing Austin "Oh he's a keeper Lily, you've picked right, such beautiful eyes!" She says gesturing Austin, and winking.

I saved myself a lot of explaining and and just said:

"Yeah" to Austin's obvious complete surprise "Anyway have you seen my mom?"

"Yeah she left around 15 minutes ago, she said you had your car?"

"Yeah, thanks Linda see you soon"

"Thanks for coming, safe journey" she says happily as I walked away.

"So I've got beautiful eyes huh?" Says Austin smirking.

I pick up some cake from the table before leaving and turned to him.

"Yeah sorry about that, it was just a lot of explaining, and I was in a hurry Levi said my mom was looking for me" I blushed slightly, stuffing some cake into my mouth. I saw a flicker of disappointment in Austin's eyes. Confused I continued to eat.

Austin waited for me as he had no other way of getting home without me, and when I had finished I turned to leave before he pulled me back by the arm. He reached up touching my face. What?! I thought, before I realised he was wiping a bit of cake in the corner of my mouth.

"Thank you" I said politely.

"No problem" he replied "Look, Lily I need to tell yo-" and he was cut off by Drew running towards us.

"There you are!" He exclaimed before quickly hugging me "I thought you'd left"

I smiled looking at Austin who had deflated a considerable amount.

Did Austin like me as well?
