I woke up elated thinking back to the afternoon with Jake in the band room. Then I felt my face go as red as a tomato when I remembered spilling the thermos all over him. After soaking up as much as we could, we were forced out of the room by the janitors who needed to clean. Luckily I had managed to gather a boquet of the lillies, all varying in color, and they were proudly displayed next to my bed. After thinking about the band room "date" I remembered that there was a group dance practice tonight. It made me die a little inside.

Luckily my ankle was doing a bit better so I was able to put more pressure onto it. I walked into the bathroom and did my usual routine and put on a purple tank top with a sweater supporting a union jack, combat boots, and ripped jeans.

I walked out to find that only Taylor was up and ready to go. "Where's Nikki?" I asked her, looking around for the brunette artist. "She's sick. Went down to the nurse's wing while you were in the shower." she replied. I stared at her gaping "Damn. She must be really sick. She never goes to the nurse." Taylor nodded then gestured for us to go down to breakfast. As we were heading down Mike, Jordan, and Jake all joined us.

The first words out of Jordan's mouth were "Where's Nikki?" I chuckled as I heard the other three laugh too. "How did I know that would be what you would ask?" I looked at him. He suddenly had a soft blush creeping up his face and he said "I-i don't know what you're talking about. I just wanted to know where she was."

Taylor giggled louder this time as she rolled her eyes. "Sure" she said while winking at Jordan "We'll keep your little secret. She's at the nurse. She woke up sick, like majorly. She refuses to go to the nurse so I was shocked when she asked me to walk her there."

I was surprised at this She never would ask to go to the nurse. She hates doctors ever since they couldn't save her sister's child. She had been so excited to be an aunt. All for it to be ruined. Just because they didn't realize that her child had suffocated while being born. Mike looked at Jake who was staring at me as he nudged my side. "Huh? Sorry, deep in thought." I admitted. "We noticed" Jake said, "Seeing as you didn't notice that Jordan mysteriously left." I suddenly looked around, noting that our group of five had decreased to four.

We all sat down with our food then and ate in silence, without Nikki and Jordan's bickering, our group was oddly quiet. The bell rang, making the four of us jump. We mumbled our goodbyes as we headed off in pairs of twos. Taylor said to me suddenly "I heard rumors about a dance coming up before Winter break. Guys ask girls kind of thing."

I stopped when I heard of this. "Seriously?!" I said, gaping at her for the second time this morning. She nodded at me then said in a whisper "Keep quiet about it. I'm not sure if it's actually gonna happen. I'll fill you in if I hear anything else." Just before I could respond she walked into the classroom opposite of the one I walked into, my thoughts a mess.

Nikki willingly went to the nurse. They may not be doctors but she still dislikes them. There may be a dance..... Guys ask girls.... I didn't even ask if Taylor had thought of dress designs.... The day went by in a blur. When the final bell rang I was still in a daze and stumbled into the hall towards my locker. It took me a couple of times for my combo to work and when I did I barely remembered to grab my bag for dance even though I wasn't going to be allowed to do anything today, according to Mrs. Roberts.
