"Okay so all of a sudden, you get your freedom and you're going for the bad boy?," Sam said critically. "You know you sure have a lot of opinions for a sensitive person" I said looking at her.
"I'm just saying you could crush on someone decent and nice who won't mess with your heart and feed it to the sharks you get me?" She said less angrily. "Well I'm going to shoot my shoot, if he breaks my heart who cares. It's going to be broken by Matt Parker, you get that Sammy?". I question.

"Well be careful and don't get attached, that's how they prey," she explains.
We search carefully through dresses and Sam has seem to have found the one. It's a fitting boob tube dress with a flare skirt area. "I love it cause it's lavender," she says dancing around with it. I look through the racks searching. I wanna make an entrance this time. Something scandalous to win the crowd. "What do you think of this dress Sam?" I say showing her a dress with a diamond hole in the cleavage area. "Too booby," she replies.
"Hmmmm, what about this one?" I ask. "The slit is too big," She answers.
This is hopeless. I search and a blood red color throws itself at me. Its a satin dress with a falling like material up to the ankles with just the right amount of slit. This is what I was looking for. I don't bother asking Sam and try the dress on.

I come out of the dressing room and "Woooow, I'm really gay for you right now," Sam tells me. "So it's a yes?" I ask. "Its a freaking huge yess!!" She yells. The customers at the store give us concerned looks and we giggle.
"Let's check out," I say.

We head out to buy masks from a variety store. "Glitter or feather?" Sam asks. "Glitter," I reply as I pick up a red feather mask. It could use a little revamping but it'll do.

The party was at six pm. Sam had a car and promised to drop me off. Mum's shift would be done by two pm so she'd she me leave and come home. I couldn't wait to get home to text Matt.

I mean like I've never felt this way about someone. The last time I did, it didn't end well. Mum found out and told Tyler to stay away from me. I realised I wasn't into Artist boys anyway.

"Sam drop me home so I can blow dry my hair in time for the party," I tell her. "Omigosh I have to eye my hair!," She exclaims and we get into the car asap.

I reach him and find mum watching something on television. "Hey honey, how was your shopping?," She asks. "Pretty good," I say smirking.
"Aren't you going to show me your dress?" She asks.
"Ummmm..," I let out.
Mum's definitely not going to approve of my dress, it's too sexy for her eyes.
"Well...?" I speak.
She gets up and grabs the bag from my hand.
"You have to let me borrow this dress next week!," she exclaims. "Its stunning!,".

I am so shocked. "Sure thing Mum," I say. I'm going to shower. I get into my bedroom and pull out the note from my pocket.
I still can't believe he gave me his number!.

ME: HEY 4:17PM

Well it might take him while to respond cause he looked super busy with his sister. I was wrong.

MATT: HEY ;) 4:18PM

ME: Are you flirting with me? 4:18PM

MATT: Maybe ;) 4:19PM

ME: How's your stomach? 4:20PM
And your face😂?

MATT:Maybe if you fell 4:21PM
on me again... :)

ME: Whatever. I'm going to 4:22PM
Olives party. You coming?

MATT: Maybe, maybe not 4:23PM

ME: I have to go get 4:24PM
dressed
Ttly

I put away my phone and lay out my clothes and shoes.
I head into the shower and listen to some feel good music.
I blow dry my hair and do my makeup.

I hear my phone ring.
I better answer it before mum does! I hope it's not Matt. I run in my towel to my bedroom. "Hello," mum answers looking at me. She makes a face. "Whose MATT!?" She s whispers covering the phone. Suddenly her facial expression changes into a humorous smile. "Oh I'll let her know to call you back Matilda. Byee," She gangs up. Omigosh Matt pretended to be a girl! I try not to smirk loudly. "I appreciate how supportive you are of the community and She wanted you to know that she's going to the party," mum finished and goes back to TV.

Thank God there's a password on my phone. She would've seen my texts.
I put on my dress and shoes. It's so satisfying to touch freshly shaven legs I swear. My black hair and Red dress compliment each other so well. I put on my mask and damn I can't even tell who's in the mirror.

I hear a honk outside. "SAM IS HERE!!," mum screams from the living room. I grab my clutch and head out the door. "Bye," I yell hoping mum can hear me.
Samantha looks like a punk princess.
"I dig you Sam," I compliment.
"Look at yourself, you can take me to tell any day," she says.
We giggle and speed off to the party.

Everyone is dressed up and it feels like a Victorian Era themed movie. Actually I'm hope to find Matt. I can't tell who is who because of the masks. Some of the guys are actually wearing very face hiding masks.
"I'm going to get some punch, no alcohol for me," Sam says responsibly. I search the crowd for dirty brown hair and grey eyes but fail to find what I am looking for.

I feel something on my back and touch it. It's a note!

MEET ME AT THE TOP?

I love a mystery and I know it was Matt. Everyone's dancing wildly, some weird stuff is going down in the other corner and Sam's dancing on top of the table with the Jocks. I head for the stairs passing some rooms and find myself puzzled. I look at the note again. I turn it and find something.

Door 1

I look at the doors and see a sharpie marked door with the number 1 written on it. I open it and there I find a masked boy.
