[vanessa's pov]

"look i really just wanna stay in the apartment. i wouldn't even go to the party if i heard beyonce was gonna be there. actaully, yes i would. but she's not so im not going"

"it's one of the best parties in new york vanessa! everybody who's anybody is gonna be there"

"well then i'm nobody cause im not going"

i attempted to hop onto the bed, but me being super short it was a very hard task

after 3 tries and a punch given to micheal for laughing, i was finally on the bed

"you really tried to make that go smoothly" mike said, still laughing

i put my fist in the air "do you want me to punch you again?"

he put his hands up in defense "hey, when's somethings funny, imma laugh"

"whatever. and for laughing, im not going to the party with you"

"wait no no im sorry"

i playfully rolled my eyes "yeah sure you are"

"i am, so pretty vanessa please can you come with me?"

"pretty vanessa please?"

"yeah cause your pretty so.."

"micheal that was the corniest thing that has ever came out your mouth"

"and this mouth, wants to drink drinks and sing karaoke with their bestfriend at a fun party"

"micheal"

he gave me a stern stare "vanessa"

micheal continued to stare at me, and i couldn't help but cave in

"fine, whatever ok. we'll go"

"yes yes yes-" micheal went and grabbed my suitcase and placed it infront of the bed "-put on your best party clothes!"

"i didn't bring any party clothes"

"what? who doesn't bring party clothes?"

"i mean i thought we were coming to new york to chill"

micheal sat down next to me on the bed "theres no such thing in new york! it's the city that never sleeps"

"well it should learn how to"

"no no no! this is exactly why you need to get out and go to this party. new york stays up forever for a reason. and its gorgeous at night. i like to say that im married to the city. its my baby"

"well i don't have anything to wear"

"we can fix that. were gonna walk to a store to get you a cute party outift, then we'll walk to the party"

"why so much walking?"

"why, because it's the best way to get around"

we stopped by saks fith avune, and though i declined every dress mike threw my way because of the price, he insisted that i get one, saying that he didn't mind spending a couple hundred on me if its for a good cause. so i ended up buying a red lacy dress which fit my body perfectly. and then we headed to the party

"are we almost there?"

"we are actually less than a block away"

"who's party is this?"

"you remember that party i threw last year for my birthday?"

"yeah. why?"

"well the dj from it became one of my bestfriends, he holds parties all the time"
micheal then stopped walking and looked up at the buliding we were standing infront of

"this is it"

i could hear the music blasting from outside the door

"do i look good?"

mike looked down and smiled at me "you look stunning, but when do you not"

i blushed we interlocked hands and walked inside

a/n: this is kinda like a filler chapter, that's why it's short. the next one is when shit gets real

but like i feel sad?? cause there's so many good madnessa stories on wattpad and i feel like mine is super trash compared to the others:( but like that's just me being insecure.
