   "Are you freaking kidding me Dani?" Robin chased after me down the hallway, pushing people out of her way to get to me. 

  "Freaking kidding, you about what?" I looked back, behind my shoulder. 

  "That your not going with anyone to Homecoming?" Robin crashed into me, as she finally caught up with my pace. 

   "Well, that's what I did last year. And the year before that.. and the year before that." I said, rolling my eyes at her. 

   "Yeah but this year's different Dani! Don't you get it?" She asked me, spitting in my face as she spoke. I flicked off the bits of spit, that had somehow accumulated as she spoke before speaking to her again. 

  "What do I not get this time? Color-coding my wardrobes? Smudging my mascara?" I threw up my free hand in aspiration. 

  "It's your last year in high school. Your going to go to collage soon. Don't you get that?" Robin said, standing infront of me, blocking my way to my locker. 

   "I get the circle of life, it's not that complicated Robin." I said, rolling my eyes and trying to get past 'defensive Robin.' 

  "Oh come on Dani. Don't you want to go with someone to Homecoming?" Robin said, with pouting eyes. 

  "Come on Robin, there's no shame in going alone! It's not my fault people don't ask me out." I lied. 

  "Dani, you and I both know, that 3 quarters of the guys in our grade asked you out, and you all turned them down! And the other quarter of the guys were too shy and said they liked you over Facebook." Robin said, stiffening a laugh as one of the guys I turned down, passed us in the hallway. 

  "But Robin, you now what happened between Jake and I a couple years back, don't you?" I asked, slightly wincing as I remembered the thought. Luckily Jake switched schools in grade 10. 

  "But Dani! That's a couple years back!" Robin and I bursted out laughing as a big group of guys passed us, in which I turned down every single one of them. Hot or not, I just say no. There really is no stopping me from saying no to a guy. 

  "Yeah, whatever. I just don't want to deal with it, okay Robin? I'll just carpool with you to the dance and have a good time standing by the punch bowl and watching you and your date dance. That's alright, right?" I said smiling sheepishly.

  "No, it's not alright." she said, her face serious. 

  "Then I'm just not going to go." I rolled my eyes and finally got passed her. As I walked towards my locker, I heard Robins loud heels running over in my direction.

  "No freaking way are you ditching Homecoming just because you don't date." Robin finally reached me and caught her breath. 

  "I won't go, unless you stop nagging me about how I don't have a date." I said sternly. Robin made a loud, dramatic sigh, before she pulled out her cellphone and began to text someone. After she hit a couple letters on her keyboard and pressed enter, she looked away from her phone and looked me in the eye. 

  "Fine. I will stop nagging you. But you have to go to Homecoming regardless of your mood." She looked at my seriously, although there was something in her eyes that told me, something else is coming.I took a breath and held out my hand, she quickly shook and began laughing her head off.
