3rd pov

Katie slowly walks up to where Shiro is sitting. As she gets closer to him he looks up at her and has a small flash back to when agirl wholooked a lot like her but in a mask walked up to him with a guy who he thinks was Matt.(2 chapters ago flashback. only a piece of it though)

"You look beautiful Katie." He says as he stands up.

"Thank you Shiro" she looks away blushing and subconsciously puts her hand on heart. Shiro looks down at her hand and notices the ring.

"Is that an engagement ring?" Shiro asks while having a feeling of dread but deep in his mind he is extremely happy. Katie looks down at the ring and smiles lightly.

"Yes...yes it is..." she says looking up at him still smiling with a shine in her eyes but as her eyes meet his the shine dulls.

"Who gave it to you? Does he know at all what happened?" Shiro asks trying not to be jealous

"The man I love."she mumbles something that Shiro couldn't hear " yes he knows everything that happened." she looks down with a small tear on her cheek. Shiro brings his hand up subconsciously and brushes the tear away.

"Kitten you know I don't like it when you cry..." Shiro say and Katie looks up at him in shock

"W..what did you call me?"Katie says almost in tears

"I'm so sorry I don't know where that came from..." Shiro looks down ashamed

"I...its fine... Do you want to dance?"Katie asks after a minute.

"Yeah sure...so tell me about your fiancé" Shiro says as they move on to the dance floor. She looks down blushing as she thinks of what to say.

"He fights hard for what he believes in, he is really close with dad and Matt

Matt is actually the one that introduced me to him. He has a heart of gold even if right now its a little broken." Katie explains while she dances. Shiro spins her while listening.

"Did I know him...before?" he looks at Katiewith sad eyes and a smile

"Kinda...""I can't lie but I can't tell him.."Katie thinks looking nervously down. "You knew him extremely well. every little thing about him actually."

"Really?"Shiro looks at her in shock

"Yeah. No way to separate you guys either" she laughs at her inside joke.

"So I was a third wheel?" he looks around and notices Lance being a drama queen while dancing with Keith

"Not really." she notices whathe's looking at "He was close with Keith too..."

"Keith knows him?" Shiro snaps his head to look back at Katie.

"Yeah" She smiles softly as he spins her again "You know...I remember how we first meet."

"We meet before? Im...Im sorry I don't remember"Shiro looks at her ashamed

"Its ok...I mean I was wearing a mask anyways" She says laughing and the music slowly stops and they break apart.

"This was fun"Shiro says

"Yes it was. Thank you for the dance" Katie walks away to the food table.
