Marks POV
Natalee tried on a few dresses. None of them which I liked. Finally we found the perfect dress for her. I picked out the dress and handed it to Margaret. Natalee snatches the dress from her while shooting me glares.

After 5 minutes Natalee calls out for Margaret.
"she has a call. Whats wrong? The dress too big?" I was looking through a magazine.
"No the dress fits perfectly." I let out an annoyed sigh.
"Then what's the problem?" I look up from the magazine and look at pres' little head sticking out.
"Well you see I can't really reach the zipper." her cheeks turned into a light shade of pink. I got up from my seat and walked inside the change room. I turned her around and zipped up the dress. I could feel myself heating up.
"uh-umm" I rub the back of my neck.
"What?" she smiled at my through the mirror.
"Nice bra." I couldn't help but blush and laugh madly at that. She had a Mickie mouse bra.
As I looked at her I remembered the necklace I have. I was supposed to give it to Stephanie.
"Oh you just reminded me. I have this necklace that I was supposed to give Stephanie but seeing you wear that dress I think it'll suit you."
I take out the necklace from my front pocket. "may I?"
She removes her hair and let's me put it on for her. As I put it on something caught my eye. It was a scar. It looked like a cut.

"What's wrong?" she looked worried. No Mark don't ask.
"nothing. shall we go?"
"yeah."

It was a 15 minutes drive from the shop to school.

I couldn't help myself but glance at pres every five seconds. She looks stunning.

We were silent.

We got to school at 7:30.

Natalees POV.
Mark stops the car and gets out. Just before I open the door for myself, Mark opens it.
"After you m'lady." He opens the door and puts his hand out.
"Thank you." I take his hand and get out of the car. I hooked our arms together and we began walking to the entrance.
"You look good kitty." did he just call me a cat?
"My name is Natalee not Kitty." I hiss
"whatever kitty." he checks the time and let's out a sigh.
"why call me kitty all of a sudden?"
"well because you have claws, you're small like one. and your ears seems to come out of nowhere when you're shouting at me or anyone for that matter." he points at the top my head.
"Still....that doesn't give you the rights to call me that." I stop and cross my arms.
"oh here they come again." he points at my head and I give an irritated sigh. "you're right. it doesn't. but I do." he starts walking towards the entrance.
"Hey you can't just walk away from me!" I shout at him. I walk up the stairs fast. I step on the inside of my dress causing me to loose balance and fall. But before my butt or any of my body contacted the ground, I felt long arms wrap themselves around my waist. I open my eyes to come in contact with Marks eyes.

"You have to be careful kitty." he says still not breaking the eye contact. I look anywhere but his face. I seem to fail the second we make contact again.
"y-y-yeah." I stutter like a fool. I put both of my hands on his chest trying to push him away. But I failed miserably since he's a lot stronger than I am. He smirks at my actions.
"Trying to escape so hard I see kitty aren't we?" he finally releases me and I straighten up.

We walk silently in the schools gym. It looks magnificent. I smiled to myself knowing our hard work paid off.

As we walk in. Arm in arm let me add, people gave us questioning looks. I look around the gym and finally spot our friends. We make our way towards them.

"Oh Natalee you look even better in that dress." Jackson wiggles his eyebrows at me and I respond by rolling my eyes.

"Hello princess." Eddie puts his arm around my waist. I love when he calls me princess.
Stephanie was sitting down next to mark. I could feel her glares. I turned around to face her and gave her my 'death' glare. Mark notices and gives me a smirk. does he think I'm glaring at him?

I took the seat beside Eddie and next to mark.

Maddy and Jackson seems to be getting along well.

"hey where is junior and Emily?" I ask loudly. The music was so loud.
"oh they went to dance." at maddys answer I couldn't help but feel....jealous?
"what? is someone jealous?" Mark teases me.
"huh? me? jealous? of what?" I glared at him.
"nothing." he starts acting all innocent. It took me a lot of courage to step on his foot with my heel.

"shit kitty! keep your claws to yourself." he hisses at me. I smirk at him.
"Eddie? can we dance?" I noticed that Eddie was kinda outta place.
"huh? yeah sure." he gave me a toothy smile.

"you look beautiful tonight princess."Eddie puts his hand on my waist while I put my hand on his shoulder.
"thank you." I rest my head on his chest and we dance to the beat.
"Eddie....how are you lately?"
"I'm good. why you ask?"
"well because you're my best friend and I care about you. plus we haven't had time to spend with eachother alone."
"I'm good. Natalee even if we don't have time for eachother doesn't mean we won't be friends right?"
"mhmm. Are you talking to your parents?" I know this is a serious question. Eddies parents are not approving of him being gay so they had a massive fight about it.
"..........no. But in time they'll accept me for who I am." I bring my head up and smile at him.

"may I cut in?" I turn my head to where the voice came from and saw jinyoung with his hand out.
"sure thing. Don't you dare try something on her." Eddie threatens jinyoung. Junior puts his hands up in surrender. Eddie left and Junior slid his hands to my waist and smiled at me.
"hi." I greet him.
"hey. May I say you look stunning tonight m'lady." I smile at his compliment. He called me m'lady.
Just then a memory flashed right before my eyes.
"after you m'lady."
"So...How are things going with you and Emily?"
"good. I really appreciate you setting us up. She's really fun." I gave him a fake smile.
"but I rather be here with you." did he just say that? fangirls on the inside.
"uh-hm" someone interrupts us. I groan when I see who that voice belonged to.
"Junior the boys want you back at the table. Hope I didn't interrupt anything." he said popping the p.
"uh no no." jr turned to me and smiled."I'll see you later Natalee. bye." he left.
"You were enjoying yourself weren't you pres?" He said as he slid his arm up my waist.
"I could say the same thing to you. you seem to really like Stephanie."
"Oh please. She just asked if she wanted to go and I just took her. And what if I like her? are you jealous?" he grins.
"nope. I don't like her. I don't even consider her as a person so why should I be jealous?." •_• I gave him one of these faces.
"alright alright. whatever you say kitty." I 'accidentally' step on his foot and he groans.
"Keep your claws to yourself kitty." he hisses.
"oh I thought you were stronger than that tuan." I smirk.

"ok everyone.."
