He broke the kiss for a second and that's when we came back to reality.

"Can we uninvite others? I feel so good here, with you..." Damon whispered in my ear and I started laughing.

"No no no, we can't honey. But don't worry, we'll have the opportunity to be alone," I winked at him.

"Well...if you say so my lady..." he moved his eyebrows a couple of times.

"Oh by the way did you do what I asked you to?"

"Do? What do you mean? What did I have to do?

I slightly hit him with my elbow knowing that he was just making fun of me to get an interesting reaction and a weird facial expression.

"Come on Damon, be serious. Did you or did you not tell Elijah to wait before the entrance with his eyes closed with a cloth?"

"Okay I did tell him, but he said that he wasn't going to cover his eyes with a cloth, he didn't get why he had to do it anyway."

"You know what? You're so bad at convincing people. Moreover, you're terrible at it! Now he'll know who's going to wait for him," I said looking away pissed.

"Angel, listen, he would know who he was waiting for sooner or later. Also, what's the meaning of his covering the eyes if your cousin's going to do it anyway? Don't panic and don't get pissed. At least not today, everything will go as planned," he said in a very comforting voice and hugged me after finishing the sentence.

"Okay okay, I'll trust you on that. I have to go now Damon, I really need to fix my makeup or everybody's gonna tease me so much," I said leaving to the bathroom before we could realize our cupid's plan.

"Don't fix it baby, maybe they will get the hint and go back home? We could party together then," he said flirting with me with his eyes, but this time it was already in vain, as that certainly wasn't gonna happen.

"Bye baby," I said turning my back to him and then stopped because I remembered that there was something else that I wanted to discuss, "Grumpy Angel? Really?"

"Huh? What are you talking about?"

"Why did you write Grumpy Angel in the invitation? When have I ever been grumpy?"

"You're being grumpy now. Also, your grumpiness is sexy. Plus, you know that I'm the better one in our couple," he said laughing at me.

"I'm just letting this slide because you've been the best boyfriend until a couple of minutes ago," I said in a both angry and kind tone.

I went to the bathroom, fixed my makeup and immediately got a call from Shay. She was already here. So I did the final touch ups and was ready to start the party. Before going downstairs I winked at and he mouthed me that Elijah is almost here and everything is under control.

I went downstairs, met Shay and covered her eyes with a cloth.

"You look stunning sister," I said slowly covering her eyes.

She was wearing a beautiful beige strapless dress, which was elegantly hugging her body. The dress was in such a gorgeous contrast with her honey skin. She was wearing almost no makeup and actually didn't even need to do it, because her features were naturally beautiful. Her long black hair was slightly curled with an iron.

That's when the interesting part was going to start ladies and gentlemen. I led her upstairs to the hall. When I opened the door to the hall and led her in, I saw that Elijah hasn't covered his eyes. Oh Damon, I told you that you can't convince people. He really doesn't have the talent to do it. Oh whatever.

"I'm gonna leave the hall now. Open your eyes when you hear that I'm out," I whispered in Shay's ear and left the hall.

I don't know if I told you this, but I'm a very very curious person. Moreover, in this situation, it was me who kind of brought them together. So I was so impatient and curious about knowing the result and if the plan worked out.

Maybe it's not right, I agree, but I just can't not listen to their conversation even for a little bit.

"So it was you. That's why they wanted me to cover my eyes," said Elijah in a low voice.

"I didn't know that either," Shay said keeping the same tone.

"Look, I don't want to make this more uncomfortable for both of us. Let's just not talk to each other at all. That way we at least won't have to fight or something."

"No, Elijah, wait. I am actually happy for this opportunity. I really wanted to talk to you about everything that happened, about us. Till this day I couldn't forget everything that happened between us. Believe me, I have changed. I know you might not believe me now, but let me prove you."

She wanted to continue, but Elijah stopped her.

"Shay, I don't want to talk about this. We don't have to do this. You might've changed, but I still don't think I can trust you."

"Elijah I'm not over you."

After this sentence I felt so bad for eavesdropping, but my curiosity was more powerful than my guilt.

"I am over you."

"I don't believe you. I know I was wrong. I didn't have to sleep with your friend, but it was just a drunk mistake. I didn't mean to do it. It just happened in the moment, I didn't even have the time to think about it."

"Shay, we've already talked about this a very long time ago. You had to think about it and even if you did it instinctively you had to stop yourself from doing it. Besides, you didn't sleep with just anybody, you slept with my childhood friend. With a friend, who was like a brother to me."

People started coming upstairs and I already couldn't keep them away from the hall. And this was the end of their conversation. They came together, but they weren't actually together. As I had to act like I didn't know what happened in there I came closer to Shay and asked whether everything worked out.

"No and I don't think it will anytime soon," she said wanting to leave.

"Can you be Matt's date then? He doesn't have one, you know why."

"Yeah sure, whatever."

I called Damon and told him to let Matt in if he comes, as Shay agreed to be his date. Damon understood that it meant that nothing good happened between Elijah and Shay. He wanted to ask me about that, but then stopped mid sentence, realizing it was useless. He quickly mumbled an okay and went to let Matt in.

Meanwhile, I saw Meggy climbing the stairs with Julian and I couldn't believe my eyes. The first thing I noticed was that she was wearing a dark red tight long dress, which showed the incredible curves we didn't know she had. I'm pretty sure that Julian was more than happy with the choice of this dress, as he would totally appreciate her flawless body. But what was more important is that she was as beautiful on the inside as she was on the outside. She was a beautiful human being.

Her hair was down this time, parted on one side and she did 2 big waves on it. Her hair was like a golden waterfall, while the make up emphasized her eyes and plump lips.

"Wow Meggy, I'm speechless," I said not finding any words to describe how gorgeous she looked.

"That's what I said, she looks hot as f-"

"Don't continue Julian, I got your point," I said laughing.

Meggy got shy and her cheeks became the color of her dress.

"Thank you Bailey, by the way you look bomb and I'm not even exaggerating."

Then, Julian took her hand and they entered the hall together. They actually looked pretty cute together. When my eyes followed them, I saw that the dress was also backless, which was so elegant, so feminine and suited her so much. Such a correct way of accentuating her perfect back.

When I saw them together couldn't even imagine her with Matt. But life and fate know better...we'll see what happens...

Matt came upstairs and I decided to go in with him before Damon would come. I think he was waiting for Owen. Even though he wouldn't let others come without a date, Owen was an exception.

"How are you doing Matty? I know you're sad that Brittany couldn't make it to the party."

"Not really, recently we weren't on good terms. We would fight a lot and have many disagreements. Whatever. Let's not talk about it today.Tell me, do you like my suit?"

He was wearing a blue suit that I wouldn't probably like on somebody else, but I liked on him.

"You look like a ginger blueberry," I said pinching his cheek.

"I don't know whether I should take this as a compliment or not, but it was funny," he said smiling at me.

"Baaaby! I'm back" said Damon putting his hand over my shoulder.

"Hi Damon," said Matt with a neutral voice wanting to see his reaction first.

"Hey James Bond. Couldn't greet you properly when you were downstairs. Have fun and I'll take my lady to the dance floor."

Matt wasn't pleased that Damon took me to the dance floor, because he hated him, still. Despite that, he couldn't object as Damon was my boyfriend and obviously I had to dance with HIM.

Damon took the microphone and came to the center.

"ATTENTION! ATTENTION! Today's our party and we want you to have fun and NOT THINK ABOUT ANYTHING ELSE! PARTY LIKE THERE'S NOOOO TOMORROOOOOOOW!"

When he finished his sentence the whole crowd started screaming like crazy. The DJ immediately put a song, which was Rock this party by Bob Sinclar. I would say that this was the best song to start the party with. Damon came running to me and we started dancing together, not thinking about our deadlines, not thinking about the fact that we had classes tomorrow, not thinking that we have ever thought and many other unpleasant things. We just danced and felt ourselves. Damon came closer, put his hands on my hands and now we were dancing feeling each other's bodies and their movements.

Shay was feeling herself. She actually was one of the people who didn't need anyone to accompany her when she was dancing. She just felt fine with having a drink in her hand and dancing by herself. Plus, today I think that she wanted to forget about the conversation that she had with Elijah and this was her way of doing it.

Meggy was dancing with Julian. It's interesting how a person's dance moves represent their personality. It's not like you're talking directly, but you actually talk through your dance moves, showing how you feel and what kind of a person you are. That's actually fascinating to me. Meggy's dance moves were as cute and shy as she is. I don't know if that would make sense, but they are soft and sweet in contrast to Shay's movements that are more active, free and at times sexy.

I saw Matt approaching Elijah who looked pissed, as Owen approached Shay and wanted to dance with her. From what I've understood, no one knew about his past relationship with Shay and didn't want to talk about it with the guys. But let's go back to the fact that Matt was approaching Elijah. To me, it was actually pretty weird because I didn't know why he would decide to do it. Maybe because he felt lonely as he didn't have a date? Or maybe he saw that they both didn't have one and wanted to start a conversation? I'll just let him be, he knows what would make him feel more comfortable here.

We danced for like two hours and I wasn't even tired, I didn't even sit for a second. After all the crazy dance songs came the slow ones to calm the crowd down and do add a little bit of a romantic atmosphere.

"Dance with me baby," Damon said putting little kisses on my neck.

"Damon stop it, we're in the middle of a crowd. Plus, you're drunk. That was all with the bad comments and now the good one. I'm always ready to dance with you."

He hugged me tight and we started dancing. The first song that we danced to was In case you didn't know by Brett Young. I loved this song a lot, I wouldn't consider it to be the most famous romantic song and that's probably why I loved it so much. I started singing the song in his ear and he was so shocked for a moment. He hasn't ever heard me sing before and he didn't even know I could sing. I continued singing the chorus for him, "In case you didn't know...baby I'm crazy about you...And I would be lying if I said that I could live this life without you...even though...I can't tell you all the time, you had my heart a long long time ago...In case you didn't know..."

I wouldn't say that I was confessing him with this song, but I wouldn't say that I wasn't confessing either. Confusing, right? It's like I wanted to tell him about my feelings, but not directly. I just thought singing would be a more unique way of doing it and a more convenient way for me to do it.

"Angel...I actually like your singing...Or maybe I'm very very drunk," he said kissing my cheek.

Well, I didn't know whether to get flattered or offended, but I decided that it would be my choice. I decided to get flattered because I took it as a compliment. I figured it's easier to live if sometimes you decide how to interpret stuff to avoid unpleasant, negative emotions and situations.

"Thank you baby. In any case I'll sing for you when you're not drunk too. Let's see if it was the alcohol or not," I winked at him.

I saw that Julian and Meggy were dancing together and they were so cute. They were talking about something and I saw Meggy smile multiple times, which made my heart so calm. She suffered so much because of her unrequited love. I know that it's possible that Julian will cause her pain, I do know that. But it's better to live by only thinking about today. Not tomorrow, not a month later, but today. We can only be sure about the moment.

Elijah and Shay were sitting at the opposite ends of the table, not dancing with anyone, while Owen found someone to dance with. I guess that Shay only danced with him once or twice, but she didn't want to have a slow dance with him. That would probably make Elijah feel better.

And then there goes the big entrance of "THE BEST COUPLE EVER" aka Lucas and Jenna, who, by the way, weren't even invited, obviously.

"Congratulations lovebirds. We hope you'll live happily ever after and your love will last forever. Oh come on, who am I kidding? I hope you break up soon so I can be with ma princess," said Lucas approaching me.

I immediately caught Damon's arm knowing that he would punch Lucas any second. He knows how to drive people crazy.

"Thanks Lucas and by the way I'm saying this only for the first part. I didn't even hear the last one. Have fun, oh who am I kidding? Have the worst time ever!" I smirked and wanted to leave making Damon follow me when that female idiot decided to talk. FYI I learnt the smirk from my boyfriend, the smirk master.

"Bailey, dear, don't try hard to be cool, you're not. You can't do that kind of sarcastic jokes. I don't even get what's good about you. Damon is bli-"

"And I'm here listening to you because? Oh right! There's no reason! BYE!" I said waving at her, smiling and taking Damon with me.

They thought they could ruin this day for me, well, they're not that powerful. They can turn my nervous system upside down, but they can't ruin my event, I won't let them do that.

"I love it when you're sassy and feisty. You have all the sides that I like in a woman. Babe you're on fire," he said caressing me and putting a little kiss on my nose.

"And I love it when you're drunk. You're complimenting me so much! I just can't get enough of those compliments. Give me more."

And we started laughing and then smiling at each other, we didn't need anyone else, seriously.

Another slow song came on and we decided to forget about that idiot couple and just have the best time of our lives. It was Enough by Alex Roe, another favorite song of mine.

This time I saw Meggy dancing with Matt, surprisingly. I don't think Julian felt completely okay with it because he couldn't take his eyes off of them. I think she was the one who asked if she could dance with Matt, otherwise he was feeling a little lonely. I actually should probably dance with him too, he's my best friend after all.

"What are you thinking about angel?"

"Nothing, just looking at Julian being jealous because of Meggy. Who would've thought?"

"Well you never know how you'll change when you genuinely like someone," he said pointing to me with his eyes.

"You're totally right. Listen, I think alcohol makes you smart. You should get drunk before the exams, you might actually have a 4 GPA at the end of the year."

"I might try once, but I'll also let my professor, who'll kick me out of the class, know that it was your idea. Agree?"

"Well you try the drunk part and then we'll just figure out the rest later."

We talked about everything and anything. What I love about the slow dances is that you talk with the person you're dancing. Of course, you have the option to not talk at all, but if you do, it becomes so special. Your bodies move in unison, your eyes look at each other and your thoughts and emotions dance with you too. Such a beautiful and emotional moment that helps the partners bond.

The slow dance ended and the part music came back on. Damon told me that he would go to the bathroom and I continued to dance. I waited for him for 10, then 15 minutes and that's when I decided to go and check up on him.

And guess what? He was lying on the floor and what was even worse, he was UNCONSCIOUS.
