"are you excited for the dance?" f/n asked happily as they sat down next to me in class. i looked over, "the one terzo put on?" i questioned, raising a brow. "oh don't give me that look." f/n rolled their eyes. "i don't know what you're talking about." i deadpanned, looking back ahead of me. f/n sighed.

"just because you think you can't get a date doesn't mean you can't go." f/n frowned. "okay, first off, i know i can't get a date. second, i don't want a date. i don't need a guy's attention to make me feel worthy." i grumbled, a bit offended that that's how my best friend thought of me.

"you know i didn't mean that." f/n stated. "do i?" i asked rhetorically. "look, i know some people. we can get you to the dance and get you to have fun. just promise me you'll try." f/n begged, placing their hand on my shoulder. i looked over, my best friend's eyes pleading.

"fine."

i grumbled as i watched f/n out on the dance floor with their friends.

they had completely forgotten about me, just like i knew they would.

i rolled my eyes, looking around the room to see if anyone was interesting enough to watch for a minute or two.

as my eyes scanned the room, i landed on terzo talking to a ghoul he had stationed near the exit of the ballroom. the ghoul's glowing purple eyes locked with mine, my breath leaving my body as we stared at each other.

after a second or two, the moment was broken as terzo placed his hand on the ghoul's shoulder, breaking the ghouls focus from me.

the ghoul quickly looked over, bowing his head and apologizing. terzo waved the apology off, continuing what he was saying.

i blinked quickly, looking down at my body and adjusting how my dress was resting on my figure.

don't get caught up..

"oh shit.." i heard f/n say. i looked up and saw them hurrying over to me. "hey, how're you doing?" f/n smiled nervously. "i'd be a lot better up in my dorm." i deadpanned. f/n sighed, their posture dropping. "y/n, i'm sorry. come out to the floor with me and have fun! i promise that'll make it up to you." f/n offered, trying to smile again. i sighed, bringing my hand up to the bridge of my nose as my eyebrows furrowed. "f/n, i don't think you understa-"

"hey! it's [name that's close to yours], right?" a guy cut into our conversation, looking at me with a smile. i looked at him raising a brow. "no." i stated. his smile only widened, "whatever. i was wondering if-" his sentence was cut off as he stifled a laugh. "i was wondering if you wanted to dance." he continued. i rose a brow, glancing over the guy's left shoulder to see a group of guys looking over, laughing together. i looked back at the guy in front of me, though something over his right shoulder caught my eye as f/n started yelling at the dark brunette in front of me.

i looked back over at the ghoul that had been talking to papa terzo, seeing him looking over at me as another ghoul spoke to him.

as the ghoul and i made eye contact, he quickly looked over at the ghoul speaking to him and patted the new ghoul's shoulder, nodding before hurrying in my direction.
