"We should help Harry find out how he feels, don't you think?" As Jake said that I heard the footsteps on the stairs and saw my best friend walk over to the stereo, blasting the music loud when he got there. We started dancing, from the corner of my eye I saw the guy staring at us. Truth be told, it was quite strange to dance this with Jake. We were comfortable around each other, of course, but our relationship was more like a brother sister one. That's probably why this dance where we were basically grinding all over each other felt a bit weird for both of us, even though we tried not to show it and danced on.

"This is a little weird." My whisper was covered up by the loud music so that only Jake could hear me.

"Yeah, tell me about it, me having to grind all over you."

"Exactly."

The boys were all gaping at us, but we acted as if we didn't notice and just danced to the beat. The dance was fun, and we got more comfortable as we continued. The music ended and we started laughing. I felt Jake nudge me with his elbow and do a small jerk with his head towards Harry. I looked over to find the curly boy standing there with a small frown on his face.

"What did you guys think?" I asked the group.

Louis and Niall just stood there, with their mouths hanging open, causing me to giggle.

"You were amazing," Harry said with a cute smile. He had the cutest dimples when he smiled and one look in his eyes made me melt. To cover it up I skipped over to him, which was surprisingly easy even though I was wearing high heels, and ruffled his hair.

"Aw, thanks Curly," I said hugging him.

I walked back over to Jake and we started discussing songs while the boys chilled on the couch at the other end of the room.

"He's so into you," Jake whispered with a mischievous smile as we tried to decide on the song.

"Okay, I don't know about that," I said a little confused about my feelings. "How about we do a song each for a warm up first?"

"Alright, I'll go first."

I walked over to the boys and sat between Niall and Harry. We listened to Jake who picked 'P.Y.T (Pretty Young Thing)'.

"He's good," Liam said turning towards me. "Do you guys practice for something or is it just for fun?"

"Well, Jake over there is really ambitious, he wants to get into Juilliard." The boys all looked at me a bit shocked.

"He's sure aiming high." Zayn commented. 

"Yeah," I said, and after a second added quietly. "He wants me to apply too."

"WHAT? Juilliard? As in, NEW YORK CITY Juilliard?" Liam asked me quite astounded. "You are going to apply to Juilliard and you never told me?"

"Li, I don't know if I'm applying yet, but what else can I do with my life?" This made him go quiet for a while.

Jake finished the song and walked over to us.

"Well, RonRon, take the stage," he said to me as I walked over to the iPod dock to select a song.

"Okay, so Jakey, this one will be a little something I'd love to say to that jerk Chris." As I said this the music started and the boys went quiet.

"Any chance you get to play the warn out pity card

Any opportunity to push my buttons hard

It's getting old, your 'poor me' thoughts

Believe me, boy, when I say 'so what'
