I sit in my room all day on my laptop online shopping, I look at the time and it's already 4:00pm, I'm not sure when Luke's party starts, or if I'm even gonna go. My phone vibrates on my night stand, I look over to find Calum's name on the screen

"Hey :) just letting you know the party starts at 7, but you can rock up whenever. Hope you can make it :)"

I stare at the screen, not sure what to reply with. I quickly text Michael, knowing him he's probably still sleeping.

"Michael! This morning I ran into calum and he asked me if I wanted to go to Luke's party tonight, and said to bring you along If you wanted??"

Within minutes Michael replies, thank god.

"Really!? That's awesome right? I'm up for it if you are"

Of course he is. I decide I should probably start getting ready if I'm gonna go to this stupid party, Michael and I are gonna look like complete dorks compared to everyone else.
I open my wardrobe doors, here comes the hard part. I scan my clothes, I wanna wear something that gets Calum's attention, but nothing to 'out there'. I pick out a black backless dress, that came just above my knees, it showed a little boob, but not too much.

I stand in front of my body length mirror smoothing out the dress, I start having second thoughts, is this dress a little too much? Is Calum gonna even talk to me? Am I gonna look like a complete try hard? Yes,no and yes, ugh

"Erika, Michael's down stairs" my mum calls from outside my room.

"Yeah hold up, I'll be down in a minute" I say as I fix my loose curls, checking my face one more time.

I head down stairs, making sure I didn't fall on my face, I hardly wear heels.

"Wow you look great" Michael smiles. He's wearing his character shirt and black skinny blacked jeans as always.

"Thanks" I weakly smile "not too over dressed, am I?" I look down at my dress.

"Not at all, I'm sure Calum will like it" he winks as I slap his arm.

"Oh look at you!" My mum folds her arms smiling at me and Michael "where are we off to now?"

"Just a small party" I scrunch up my face shaking my head.

"Hm, okay, be careful please! And text me when you're on your way home please" she says walking back into the kitchen.

On the way to the party I overthink everything. Why was I even going? It's not like Calum's gonna see me and fall in love with me as hard as I've fallen in love with him.

"You alright?" Michael looks over

"Yeah, just nervous I guess, I should of just stayed home" I shake my head

"Hey it's alright! It'll be fun! I'll be with you okay?" Michael smiles "does Ashton know you're going to a party with Calum and Luke at it?" He keeps his eyes on the road.

"Uh nope? Why?" Why would Ashton need to know?

"Oh, just wondering, you know how he feels about them, especially Calum"

I decide not to say anything, I didn't wanna start a fight right before the party, I'm sure Ashton will understand, I mean it's none of his business, I can do what I want.

We arrive at the house, there's cars everywhere, my nerves started to build up, God I wish I didn't come, there's no going back now.
