     "No." I say.

     "WHY NOT?" Melanie asks.

     "NO I'M NOT GONNA WEAR A DRESS!" I shout at her.

"BUT YOU HAVE TO WEAR A DRESS ITS A WEDDING!" She screams back.

     "IM NOT WEARING A DRESS BITCH!" I yell starting to run away.

     "BACKUP!" Melanie yells and suddenly there is a wall of seven people surrounding me.

     "You'll never take me alive." I tell them before using the chair right next to me to help catapult myself over Zach's head and onto the couch before running off.

     "HOW'D SHE DO THAT?" I hear Christina yell. I'm almost at the door when I realize something and turn around.

     "WAIT! How'd you get in my apartment?" I ask everyone. They pause all pause for a moment giving me time to escape without them noticing. "FREEDOM!" I yell when I'm halfway down the hallway before getting tackled to the ground.

     "You are wearing a dress to the wedding." Melanie says from on top of me.

     "WHY? Fancy dresses are uncomfortable." I complain.

     "Well your brother is getting married we have to go to the wedding." She responds.

     "It's gonna be so boring." I complain more.

     "Christina and I will be there." Melanie responds.

     "With Zach and Corbyn. Imma be a single little pringle." I retort.

     "Why Don't you bring a date? You've got a plus one." She suggests.

     "In case you haven't noticed, I don't have a boyfriend." I tell her.

     "So bring one of the guys." Melanie says pulling me up from the floor.

     "What?" I ask. Does she really want me to bring one of the Daniel? One of the guys. I meant one of the guys.

     "DANIEL!" Melanie yells. "CAN YOU COME HERE FOR A SECOND?" WHAT THE FRENCH FRIES? She couldn't be.

     "How may I be of service today?" Daniel asks walking into the room eating a banana.

     "Where did you get a banana? I don't have any bananas here." I ask him. He simply shrugs. "Well that's helpful."

     "Daniel you're going to Kate's brothers wedding with Kate, Christina, Zach, Corbyn and best of all, me." Melanie says.

     "Ok..." he says a little confused.

Time skip to the wedding reception

     "Congratulations!" I yell hugging my brother Carson and his new wife.

     "Thanks Kate." He replies. "By the way, that guy you brought."

     "What about him?" I ask.

     "He's a keeper." He tells me.

     "Oh, we're just friends." I tell him. But I can't help think, for now.

     "Are you sure?" He asks.

     "I'm sure." I tell him. "Now go dance with your wife." He walks off and I feel someone tap on my shoulder. It's Daniel. As soon as I turn around he does an awkward and joking bow.

     "May I have this dance?" He asks.
