Andy's POV

"This is a bad idea.."

"You need to relax, you deserve to have some fun." My friend Liz reassured.

Liz and I became friends when we were both 6 years old. It was during a birthday party that took place at a roller rink. Unfortunately we were both terrible roller skaters and collided when we both lost control. I was embarrassed and crying because I had cut my chin open when Liz came over with a ninja turtles bandaid in hand and a soft smile. Ever since then, we've been really close.

"I just don't want to go.." I sighed falling backwards onto my bed.

"Oh please, you have to go because of that little stunt you pulled with Ethan this morning."

"Wha- ..ugh he just really pisses me off and the look on his face was absolu-"

"hilarious." she shook her head looking bored. "Come on, just this once. Please? for me?" Not the puppy dog eyes. I can't handle those damn puppy dog eyes.

"Fineee" my voice dragged. "but you are doing my hair and I haven't brushed it in a week." Her face drew up into a scowl at my words.

"Okay ew...but yay im so excited" she squealed causing me to laugh.

Graybae: Can't wait to get this party started with all my favorite people :)

DandyAndy: Only going to make sure you don't do anything to stupid.

Graybae: and thats why I love you. See you there!

This is going to be a long night.

"Im not so sure about this."

"It's a pool party and you look great."

This shirt is just so...reveling. I wasn't comfortable at all but I guess I need to get out of my comfort zone for once. I was having a inside battle on whether or not to throw a hoodie on top instead.

"Lets just go and get this over with before I change my mind" I grumbled and Liz grabbed her keys.

The Dolans house was located in a gated community considering they lived in one of the few nicer homes in town. The short drive there seemed to take forever and the dread was consuming me.

Liz had parked a street away because there was already a ton of people there. We both walked through the lawn getting looks from guys we've never even seen before. Okay weird.

Stopping at the front door Liz grabbed my shoulders making me face her completely.

"We don't have to do this is you don't want too. Its not too late to go back to your place and just have a regular sleepov-"

"Lizzy don't worry." I chuckled. "I want to do this." I reassured with a forced smile. No I don't..

She smiled back and nodded preceded to ring the doorbell to be greeted by none other than Grayson.

"ANDYYYYY" His large arms engulfed me into a hug. "You actually came." a genuine smile spread across his face.

"Yeah well don't get used to it." I laughed

"well you guys look great. Im gonna go order some pizza but I'll come find you right after." he said and a smile never leaving his face.

I looked over at Liz and she was already looking at me.

"B.R.B. mama needs her jiggle juice." Dear god.

Great Im all alone. Just what I needed tonight. I decided to go out to the back where the pool and majority of the party was. I looked around for Grayson but he wasn't anywhere in sight so I stood there awkwardly waiting.

It seemed like few minutes had passed when I heard a voice speaking to me in the other direction.

"Having fun?" I turned around only to be met with Ethans taunting smirk and one of the guys he hangs with from school, Froy.

My jaw clenched "What do you want? Im here for my friends." I said sounding annoyed.

"Oh nothing just wanted to make sure all my guest are enjoying themselves." he said obviously up to something.

"Looking good Patterson." Froy winked causing a small heat to spread across my cheeks.

Oh my god I have to find Liz. I can't be here by myself.

"Pizza is here!" Gray yelled while entering the back yard space making the crowd roar.

"Gray!" I called with a smile walking towards him having to go around the pool.

As he looked up I felt two pairs of strong arms wrap around my waist and legs. I was lifted into the air and tossed into the pool before I could even scream. My brain felt like it was on fire due to the amount of water that had gone up my nose. I resurfaced coughing and and holding my chest trying to breathe normal.

I wiped the water from my eyes to see the two jerks that just threw me in with all my clothes on. Of course it was him, its always him.

"Seriously Ethan?!" I yelled.

All I could see was him and everyone surrounding laughing. Suddenly my throat tightened and my eyes started to burn. I quickly got out giving him one last look "I can't believe you." my voice trembled and his features softened.

I've never felt so much humiliation. What a great way to end my senior year.

Before anyone could say anything to me I ran. Getting out of here was the only thing on my mind right now besides the hurt and embarrassment I was feeling.

"Andy are you okay?" Liz tried to grab my arm to talk but I shrugged it off and walked out the front door.

Ethans POV

"nice one jerk...real nice" someone spoke.

I rolled my eyes. She totally set me up for all this negative attention Im getting. That exactly something she would do. But the hurt in her eyes looked so real I actually thought I felt bad for a second.

I was caught off guard by Grayson's shove. "Ethan what the hell is wrong with you?" He yelled making a scene.

"What did you do to Andy?" Liz came up to me with a look of anger. All eyes were on us three.

"I just gave here a good party welcome thats all." I shrugged not really seeing a big deal. Grays face reddened.

"You better go fix it or it will be bad for you I swear to god you're gonna regret it if you don't." He stood closer getting right in my face. My jaw clenched.

Im have no desire to do this but I do value my relationship with my brother. He's my Bestfriend and sometimes my only friend.

Letting out a huff I nodded.

Gray looked around noticing all attention was on us. "Nothing to see here, Lets crank it back up!" the crowd got loud and everything resumed as if nothing had happened.

I quickly walked inside to grab a hoodie for Andy. Im sure she's freezing not that I care.

I hopped into my vehicle and started driving.

It's gonna be a long night.
