Velvet strutted into the kitchen and stood on top of the snack table.

"HEY!" She yelled to everyone.

Their heads turned to look at her as their conversations were cut short by her yell.

"The party's over! Ereryone needs to go home!" She yells over the music that was still blasting from the speakers.

Nobody questioned it and left, Velvet stepped off of the table.

"Come on, we need to put this stuff away and clean up." She says as she grabs a garbage bag and begins picking up plastic cups and a bunch of other shit that littered the floor.

We both worked on it for a good couple of hours until we finally get it done. After that we ended up heading to bed since it was like two in the morning.

The next morning when me and Vels got to school, she suddenly looks up from her phone and says: "Are you gonna ask him?"

"Ask who?" I say.

"Ritz."

"What am I asking Ritz?"

"To the dance." She smirks.

"What?!" I exclaim.

"You heard me."

"W-why w-would I ask Ritz to the dance?" I say nurvously.

"Oh come on Veneer, it's not like it isn't obvious you like him." She raises an eyebrow.

"I-" I desperatly tried to think of an excuse but couldn't.

"Exactly." Velvet smirks as she continues scrolling on Instagram.

...

Ritz's perspective:

I was shoving a few books into my locker and suddenly someone let's themselves slam aganst the lockers next to me.

I jump and turn my head to see Veneer.

"Hey." He says in this tone that was almost... flirty?

"Um, hi." I say.

"What'cha doin'?" He asks as I shut my locker.

"Grabbing my stuff for gym." I answer.

"You have a gym class?" He asks.

"Yeah." I tell him. "Why are you so curious?"

He shrugs. "I dunno."

"Hmm." I murmer.

"You know... I was kinda wondering something." He says, leaning in closer to my face, which made me blush. Hard.

"W-what is it?" I ask.

"You know about the whole school dance thing right?" He says.

"Yeah."

"Well," He leaned in closer, as if it was possible. "I was wondering if you'd be my date?"

I swear. The second those words left his mouth I inturnally screamed.

"I- w- eh- seriously?" I stutter.

"Yes." He smirks.

"I- sure." I manage to say.

"Kay' great." He says.

Then he kissed me on the cheek.

My face practically caught on fire.

I just stood there for a minute before blinking myself back into reality and head down to gym, internally shreaking about what had just happened.

-Gym class-

I walk over and just sit down on the sweater I'd brought, meanwhile, nearby, the Youth Club kids were messing around and telling dumb jokes. I could also hear them talking about me.

"I literally can't stand his gay ass. It would be better if him and all the others who are apart of that stupid LGBTQ shit just didn't exist." One of them, a girl named Lila, said.

"Oh my gosh, so freaking real." Another guy, James, agrees.

"Hey, let's go see how he reacts when we put him in his place." Another girl named Chloe says with a smirk.

"Eh, not now. How about we catch him when he's walking home. He lives in my neighborehood." James suggests.

"You know, y'all arn't exactly quiet." I call over to them.

"So what bitch? You got a problem?" Chloe hisses.

"With the fact that y'all wanna jump me? No duh!" I snark back.

Lila scoffs, before saying: "Well you should watch your back stick."

I look over at them and stand up. "What'd you just call me bitch?"

"You know what I called you." She spits.

"Well that's big coming from you. If you wanna fight, do it now." I hissed.

"Bring it." She spat.

"Why don't you since you're so big and tough?" I fold my arms accross my chest.

She glares at me, her face twisted up in anger.

Right before she threw the punch.
