Laine's POV

"Well then, let's order pizza!" Cole shouted.

"WAIT!" Dana shouted, his arms spread sideways. "Can all of you please break up when I'm here? Just go back to being together when I'm not here anymore. What do ya think? Great, idea huh?"

Everyone laughed. If something didn't bother me, I would have also joined their joy.

I remembered what Cassidy told me yesterday. That we are not official yet, that I am not his girlfriend and he is not my boyfriend.

Well, it's a big point.

I looked at the floor.

"Is something wrong?" Will must've noticed my sudden shift of mood.

"No! No, I'm just... Tired," I said then faked a smile. I know he didn't buy my mainstream 'I'm tired' alibi but I guess he just tried to shrug it off.

To make Will believe that nothing's wrong, I just decided to goof off. I'm sorry, Will.

"Why don't you just--" Dana cut me off.

"LALALALALA! HEHE LAINE THEY'RE NOT HEARING ANYTHING!"

"Oh come on, Dana. Everyone knows about it already," Will said.

"They do not kno--"

Cass interrupted, "We do not know that you like Aalea? Yeah, sure, we don't know that."

Dana stared at Cass for a while then looked at Cole, "Come on, Cole let's get pizza!"

--
It's past 8pm already and almost everyone were stuffed with pizza. True enough, Cole and Dana ordered pizza but when the delivery man came, they made Dalton pay.

"See! You are only less than a foot taller than me!" I said while pointing the 12-inch ruler to Will. We were both standing next to the wall. I'm measuring my height 'coz he keeps on teasing me about being short.

"8 inches. That's pretty long," Dana intervened.

"Shut it, Dana!" I said. "And hey," I turned back to Will, "Just because you're 5'11 doesn't mean I'm short. FYI 5 feet and 3 inches is tall for a girl."

"Okay okay," Will said while laughing, his arms up in surrender.

"Sho whot ore we gonnha ju naw?" Dalton asked while munching the last slice of pizza.

"We'll do what all the cliché sleepovers do. Watch a movie," Cole said.

Dalton swallowed the pieces of pizza left in his mouth, "Okay. Everyone change into their sleep gear and be back in 10!" Dalton said. After that, the boys proceeded to their rooms upstairs.

I didn't bring extra clothes! Maybe that's why Cass and Alex had bags this morning! Gosh, stupid Laine forgot to bring clothes for the sleepover.

Everyone stood up while I was left sitting on the couch. "Alex did you bring any?" I asked.

"Yup," she answered holding her bag up for me to see.

"Extra?" I asked. Alex shook her head with a pout.

"I didn't bring any. Cass, Tique do you have extra clothes?"

Tique shook her head no then went upstairs. To Dalton's room maybe?

"Sorry Laine." Cass said. I just nodded my head at her.

They all went upstairs, to each of the boys' rooms maybe. I followed and when I saw the door with a hanging wooden WILL on it (they all had hanging names for each of their doors) I knocked then entered.
