Hollands POV

Dylan automatically let's go of my hand and I look at him surprised. Did he not want her to know we were officially together?

She turned around with two colourful drinks in both of her hands and her smile faded once she saw us.

She was wearing a tight white dress which clinged to her perfect body and made her skin seem even more tan than usual.

Her hair was straightened for a change (she always curls her hair) and she was also wearing big silver earrings that reflected the blue and purple lights in the room.

We just stood there looking at each other for a moment. Not one of us knowing what to say.

"Hey." She said bluntly.

"Hi." I said back, smiling.

"How are you doing?" Dylan asks her, like she was supposedly not doing okay for some reason. I look at him.

"Me? I'm fine. Why wouldn't I be fine?" She answers and looks at Dylan like this was the stupidest question ever.

"I don't know... I was just asking." He said and looked down.

"Well, I have to go... someone's waiting for me." She said and strutted right between us and bumps our shoulders while walking through.

I turn to Dylan. "Why did you let go of my hand?" I furrowed my eyebrows at him.

"I didn't want to make the situation any worse, okay?" He said.

"...but everyone knows we're together know." I said and locked my arms around my chest.

"Not everyone." He said.

"We are together aren't we?" I asked him.

"What? Yes, of course." He sighed.

"I'm gonna find, Crystal." I said while looking down and walked straight away from him, without letting him get the chance to answer me.

I walked through several crowds of people and greeted the ones I recognised as I went. I held my head up high and searched the crowd for Crystal.

Once I spotted her I waved my hand in the air.

"Crystal!" I yelled and entered through the crowd and approached her.

She turned around and smiled at me. She was wearing a matching set of a green-blue-ish top and skirt, it kind of looked like a really short dress.

"Holland!" She exclaimed and open her arms to hug me. I went in to hug her and once we broke apart I saw Darren, smiling besides her.
