"Crap, the dance is Friday, and I don't have a date! If I go without one what will Tayte do!??!"  Jake grumbles
"Sucker" I chuckle evilly while looking down at my phone
"Could you just go with me or something?"  He asks desperately
"Yeah sure, I just have a few ground rules" I explain
"Okay?"
"No slow dances, no holding hands, arms length, and no showing me off to other people unless it's Tayte cause I don't like her. Got it?"
".....Yeah okay"
"Okay" I shrug and look back down to my phone
"But you have to look nice because I need to make sure it's believable" He adds
I roll my eyes "Whatever"
"SKYLAR YOU NEED TO GO TO THE DANCE WITH ME" Joseph falls no his knees and my chair
"Uhhh...  Why?" I furrow my eyebrows at him
"I need to make Natasha jealous!!!"  He pleads
"Yeah sure" I shrug looking down to my phone once again
"But you said you would go with me!"  Jake snarks
"Oh right" I say, biting into an apple
"Oh right" He mimics
"No!  She's going with me"Joe snarls
"No!"
I watch them act like three year olds until I finish my apple "So....  Who am I going with?"  I yawn
"Me!"  That both say at the same time
I groan  and think for a couple seconds "How about I switch off?" I sigh
"No! Haven't you seen movies?" Joe stubbornly states
"Half and half?" I say
"Nooo" Joe says while Jake shrugs
"Kay, half and half" I shrug
"This will never work" Joseph sighs as I walk up to my room

"Sky!" I turn to see Amanda and the cute Asian girl rushing up to me
"Oh hey" I smile at the both of them adjusting my colorful backpack that is hanging from one thin shoulder
"hi" they small girl smiles slightly
"Oh! This is Morgan!" Amanda gestures to the girl
"Helloooo" I say and she laughs lightly
Amanda smiles and jumps right to the point "Wanna go dress shopping with us? The dance is this Friday, but we're running behind.... As you can tell"
I laugh "Sure, I think that'll be fun. when?"
"Uh.... Today?" She suggests
"Sure" I shrug
"Okay! We'll meet you at your locker at the end of the day" Amanda and Morgan smile, turn, and rush off.

"Okay, Amanda sucks at driving, be aware" Morgan whispers to me as we walk to Amanda's car
I nod my head and slip into the comfy back seat.
"So, what's it like living with seven boys?" Amanda asks looking in the rear mirror to see my face and she jams her keys into the key hole
"it's a big jump, but it's been alright." I shrug
"wow, you're really chill bout that" Morgan points out
"Eh, I have no chill, but there's no way out of this one" I breath a sigh and roll the window fairly down as she starts to drive way to fast out of our school parking lot.
When we get to the mall it's packed. Their are many faces I recognize from school and I see, that we aren't behind on getting our outfits.
"What do you think Tyler would like?"  Amanda asks, thumbing through a dress rack
"Well, he told me he hates when girls over do the self and dress up too much, so to be safe, I'd go casual" I shrug giving her the best advice I could offer
"So, no dress?" She starts to walk away from the dresses
"I guess. Just be you, whatever you come in he'll most likely be fine" I explain
She nods her head
"Who are you going with Morgan?" I ask turning to her small figure
"No one" She replies simply
"Oh" I nod
"I might not go" She shrugs and takes a sip of her drink
"Oh" I say again
"who are you going with?" She asks
"Jake and Joseph" I reply not thinking how weird that sounds
"You sly dog" She laughs
"Haha, no, They both wanted me to help them with something at the dance, so I'm just doing half and half" I explain
"Ah, good luck"
"Thanks" I laugh and start to look through the dresses
~~~
"we've been to two stores already" Morgan complains
"That's not that much Morgan" Amanda rolls her eyes and Morgan replies with a sigh
"Well I don't really care what I end up wearing-" I get cut off with a gasp from Amanda
"Look!"  She points to a stores window and on display is a pretty deep blue flowy shirt and tight black jeans, there's strappy shoes and a black bag next to the manikin.
"That looks cute" I smile and Morgan agrees
"Let's get that!" She says and rushes into the store. 
She gets the shirt and pants "I need some jewelry too" She explains and head over to the jewelry section, while I look around for my dress. 
I find a cute white dress with a floral print in the bottom, which would go good with a cute black jacket and other items I have at home. 
Amanda and I go into the checkout line after trying our outfits on.
Amanda ends up with a blue shirt and black jeans. A heart necklace, black bag, cute heels, bangles, and simple black earrings.
