“Stop saying that! He does not! Plus, he’s going to get back with Amanda in one week, max.”
“Oh yeah? What was it that he whispered to you outside?”
“He said that I always looked cute when I blushed.” I say with indifference.
“ARE YOU KIDDING?”
“Shh! Everyone is probably sleeping!”
“Don’t hush me! That boy isfineand likes you.”
“He’s notthatattractive.” I lie. Only a blind person would think that way.
“Ofcoursenot!” That’s a lot of sarcasm. “So all the times you were staring were because he had something on his face?”
“Oh, shut up.” I say, frowning. She laughs.
“You know I’m right, and you like him too.”
“DO NOT!”
“DO SO!”
“DO NOT.”
“DO SO.”
“Don’t…”
“Do…” She smirks.
“Besides, tomorrow I’m gonna meet Miss Patty’s grandson, and I’m sure that he iswaybetter than West.”
“As if.”
“Hey, don’t do that. The boy plays guitar and reads. Can’t get more attractive than that.” I bite my lip.
“Jake plays the guitar.” Allison rolls her blue eyes and scoffs.
“But, he doesn’t read.” She puts her hands up in surrender. “Anyways, you and Riden…” This time,Isend her a knowing look, wiggling my eyebrows.
“Oh yes. We’re already planning your and Jake’s wedding.”
“Tell me that’s not true.”
“What do you think we were talking about the whole dinner and outside when you were too busy scowling at him? And besides, Riden never liked Amanda.” She arches an eyebrow. I sigh.
“Good night, Allison.”
“Good night, Madiekins.”

“What thefuck-”
