Colleen's POV
I can't find anyone I know here. These are all popular kids, and all my friends aren't. I stepped further into the swarm of teenagers. I looked around and saw people drinking, twerking, and dancing on the tables. How are Rebecca's parents ok with this? I kept walking trying to find Rebecca and I saw her in the lounge talking with some friends. "Oh hey Colleen." she says smiling. All of her friends look at me and start whispering to each other. They all looked at me like I was a piece of chewed up gum. I ignored them and looked back to Rebecca. She was the one who invited me here. " Colleen you look really pretty.. oh wait your makeup is smudged a little come with me I'll help you fix it. I agreed eager to get away from her snobby friends. I followed her up the stairs into her bedroom. She opened the door and there was a girl and a boy making out on her bed. " Ew get out you trashy idiots!" she screamed at them. " Who invited you anyways leave!" she says crossing her arms. They quickly got up and ran out. " Ok come on Colleen." she says and I follow her. " I'm gonna make you look great." she says and starts.

" Ok all done." she says smiling big. "Wow thanks so much Rebecca." I tell her hugging her. " It was really no problem." she says and flips her hair. "Ok let's go back down now." she says. We go back downstairs and she leaves me by myself again. I shrug and walk over to the bar and sit. I don't drink so I just asked for a coke. I looked beside me and there was a very attractive boy sitting there. I guess I was staring because he turned to face me. " Oh, hey Colleen." the boy who I figured out was Josh said. " Oh, uh hi." I say blushing. "I know we're not at school, but for the project due Monday.. do you maybe um wanna come over to my house tomorrow and work on it." he asks shyly. " Of course!" I say way to happily. He laughs at me and my face turns red. " I mean uh yeah sure. We talk for a few minutes and it's actually fun. I wasn't stuttering much so that's a plus. " Colleen Ballinger?" I hear come through the speakers. " Come up here please." I see Rebecca call from the stage. Everyone stops dancing and the music cuts off. I get off my seat and start to come forward. " Hold on let me fix your concealer real quick." one of Rebecca's friends say. When she applies it it feels more like a marker than a concealed stuck but oh well.  "Ok now you can go." she says laughing. Why do they care so much about touch ups and crap. I walk onto the stage and everyone stares at me and snickers and whispers to their friends. Ok I know I don't belong here with all the populars, but they didn't have to make it such a big deal. "Anyways guys this is my friend Colleen." Rebecca starts. " She's one of my good friends and Colleen has asked a favor of me." she says and I'm confused. " So there's this guy.. Joshua, Colleen has the biggest crush on you and she wanted me to tell you that." she says laughing. Everyone starts laughing and I feel my cheeks turn red. I should've ran off the stage, but I was so embarrassed I couldn't move. No no no this can't be happening, this is a dream. I drown out everyone's laughter and feel a tear trickel down my cheek. " But Josh I recommend not dating her because she's a slut." she says pointing to my forehead. I wipe my forehead and black ink comes off onto my fingers. That was it. I ran off the stage as people were laughing at me. I ran out the front door and I was about to get in my car when I heard my name. "Colleen wait!" I turn around and see Joshua. He must be coming to tell me how much of a freak I am, and not to come over tomorrow.. but trust me I'm not going anyways. I ignore him and get into my car. Tears are streaming down my face and I can barely see because of the mascara blinding my eyes. I turn around and see Josh standing in the driveway with his hands in his pockets. I sigh and realize I can never talk to him again.
