NaNoWriMo Novel: Ch.5 Nerves

After we all finish eating, Edwin offers to pay for me. I refuse, letting him know he doesn’t have to pay for me but of course, he pays anyways. Ashton drives us to the dance, with Chris following behind us. The closer we get the more nervous I am. I can’t stop thinking about Chris. I wonder what is going through his mind, and if he still cares about me. Only, I feel bad now thinking about Chris with Edwin so close.

I push Chris from my mind as Ashton parks the car. We get out and wait as Chris parks and the two of them join us. The six of us walk up to the school and into the cafeteria, where here were bags lined along the tables for us to put our stuff in.

Edwin and I share a bag. We put our coats and stuff in the bag and then head to the gym where we can hear music blasting. A rap song is blaring and I can’t understand a single word being said. Edwin and I stop as Amber, Ashton, Claire, Chris join us. We all begin dancing.
