"so sweetie is there any boys who asked you to the dance?" my mom asked in her sickly sweet tone as she shoved a frilly pink dress in my face.

billy snorted listening in and I stuck my middle finger up at him when my mom wasn't looking.
"yeah his name is lucas he's just a friend though" I said as I stared in disgust at the dress shaking my head.

"oh how sweet I bet he's lovely" she smiled as she started her lecture on how I should be more girly and wear makeup and blah blah. Finally I agreed to some makeup and that shut her up.

I sighed loudly as britney went on about her expensive dress with diamonds and then I looked over to the entrance of the gym spotting max wearing a teal sweater and jeans. she was really pretty.

"jane! gosh listen so I'm having a party afterwards you should come"

"mhm" I mumbled still keeping my eyes on max. then lucas walked up to her and asked her to dance and the pang of jealousy came back. I looked to mike and will dancing and having fun, I wish I could be that brave.

"ouch" I mumbled as lucas stepped on my foot, no offense to him but he was a terrible dancer.
I was really bored but I couldn't let my self fuck up once again and hurt yet another persons feelings.

"hey, I'm gonna go get some punch" I told lucas as I walked off towards the snack table only to run into jane. I kept quiet as I filled up a cup of punch but then clumsy as can be I tripped and punch landed on her perfect royal purple dress.

"shit, i'm so sorry" I said in apology.

"it's okay" she said looking at me not a bit angry. "help me will you?" she asked grabbing my hand as she headed to the bathroom.

"ok-" I said astonished and tried to ignore the fact my hand was super sweaty from holding hers.

"okay I need to take this dress off so I can properly try to clean it, could you unzip my dress please?"

I felt my face turn red as I unzipped her dress for her and tried to not stare at her matching purple bra.

"thanks"

the tension between us from a few months ago vanished as I helped clean her dress. "sorry again"

"its fine, I actually have been meaning to talk to you"

"about before"

"yeah...I'm sorry for everything I've said or done"

"its okay I'm sorry if coming here has ruined things"

"no, it hasn't I really do want to be your friend its just..."

"just what?"

"nothing."

and then she kissed me.
