Freddy's Pov

"Seriously dude ,you've got to be kidding me right now."Dan said in an annoyed yet teasing tone. "I actually thought you brought a hot chick but you brought a... weird nerd instead?"

I looked behind me and saw that Amelia was no more sitting there, she must have heard everything stupid Dan had said.

The next second I grabbed Dan's shirt by the collar in anger and gave him a daring look. "Seriously dude, I said watch it!"

Dan said nothing but just glared right at me and I did the same.

What had come over him? The drinking obviously went to his brain.

It's a good thing the people around us were minding their own business otherwise there would have been a crowd around us.We just only got a few stares from the people around us.

Almost immediately another guy came over calling Dan.  "Dan, dude, you've got to come see this!"

"Yeah, I'm coming." Dan stated without looking back at the guy as he took my hands off his shirt.

"I hope this is a sick joke you're playing Freddy, and that you'll be back to normal on Monday, and stick with your kind of people." He stated as he backed away.

"Just get out of here"I replied sternly. Soon the other guy had taken Dan with him.

There were more important things now, Amelia had walked away and I needed to find her.

I walked through the bodies of partying people searching for her, and when there was no progress finding her inside, I figured that she may be outside.

I rushed outside the house, through the front door and I just saw a few people chatting.  I just kept on swerving my head around until I saw someone behind a pillar, it appeared that the person was sitting down and had their arms around their knees and face on top of their knees . But I wasn't sure who it was so I walked closer.

As I walked closer I was able to paint out some of the features; glasses,  deep aurburn toffee hair that glistered in the moonlight, tainted red cheek, yup! It was definitely her.

"Amelia!" I called out to her.

She turned back to see who  was calling her,and when her eyes landed on me she immediately got up and started walking very fast in the opposite direction.

"Amelia!" I called out again but she didn't turn back.

I ran towards her retreating figure and as soon as I caught up with her, I turned her around to face me and placed my hands on either side of her shoulders .

"Freddy please leave me alone,I just want go home!" She pleaded not once facing me.

"Look at me, please just look at me." I said.

She finally looked at me , and I could see there was a pained look in her eyes.

"Look Amelia, listen to me, he was just talking rubbish, probably because he was drinking and he--"

"Is that what everyone thinks of me?" She cut me off, paying no attention to my previous statement.  "That I'm a some nerdy weirdo who is an embarrassment. Freddy, I go around school thinking I'm just being normal but everyone else sees me as an embarrassment..."

"Amelia, it's not like that --"

"It's hundred percent like that Freddy! And I'm sorry I associated you with some one like me, I don't want to separate from your kind of people because of a weirdo like me. So please let me just go home!" She says as she tries to walk past me.
