Why don't we try

A year

Ariana's POV:
It's been a year since the boys started Why don't We and I'm so proud of them all. However I worry that they will soon forget me and just see me as another fan. Let's be honest all I'm doing is holding them back and it's unfair. Since Lily died I've been struggling to do simple activities such as showering, listening, eating. My parents have started to worry for not just my physical health but my mental health. I keep reassuring them I'm living and that's more than can be said about Lily but they just share a look with each other and start a new conversation. I've noticed that happen a lot lately people stopping mid conversation as soon as I enter a room. I know they're talking about me but I carry on not saying a word. At school some people have comforted me but most just glare over like I'm some sort of freak. All different rumours have been spread around the school. Some about me wanting it to happen, some about Lily being suicidal, some about how we was drinking before we started driving. The rumours fly right past me as I choose not to confront anyone about them. That's why I don't blame them for assuming things, because I haven't told them any different.
I stare out into space as I sit on my own at lunch. I look down at the tray of food in front of me before pushing it to the side and putting my head in my hands. I start to cry as I think about the night it all happened. Suddenly I feel a hand touch my shoulder as I turn around to see Georgina (the popular blonde girl who deliberately bumped into me on my first day).
"Ariana I just want you to know I'm here for you" she says sympathetically.
"Erm ok..."
"... and that I'm having a party this Friday and I would love to see you there"
"I don't think I ca..."
"Nonsense I want you there. You'll have fun I assure you" she says smiling down at me.
"Sure whatever" I say knowing there's no getting out of it.
"Great. I'll text you the address." She says as she walks away her ponytail swinging from side to side as she walks. God that girls so annoying. I turn back to the table as I think about what's just happened. THE Georgina Brown has just asked ME to her party. Like what??!! Anyone but me would think it as an amazing dream but I think of it as a nightmare. After half an hour of thinking I decide that I just won't show up and that's what I would've done if this didn't happen next...
"Oh Ariana a friend of yours called me today asking my permission if you could go to hers Friday" my mom says as I walk through the door.
"What?!! And what did you say?" I ask my heart beating madly in my chest.
"I said it would be fine"
"Why do you have to interfere in everything mom!!!" I say as I stomp up the stairs to my bedroom.
