Sierras pov

The school dance came sooner than I expected. It was literally the talk of the school for the whole week. Every girl would brag about their dates or what there are wearing and as usual the boys didn't really care. Except the dance wasn't something that was on my mind. Aaron was. We still haven't talked about the kiss. In fact we are acting as if nothing happened and I don't know why. Maybe in the time period that we weren't dating I became a bad kisser and he didn't want to hurt my feelings or maybe it was just a mistake.

I was pulled out of my thoughts when my mom opened the door. "I wanted check up on you and see how your makeup is- Sierra why are you laying in bed?! You have to get ready for the dance" she said and walked over to my bed with a stern look on her face. The dance started at 7pm and it was now half five. I know for a fact Veronica and Steph have started hours ago.

"Ok yeah I'm getting ready now" I sighed and walked over to my vanity. My mom walked over to the door but turned around and smiled at me.

"I can't wait to see you and Aaron together, especially him in a suit" she winked. My eyes widened and then I turned back to my mirror. My mom doesn't know that Someone else is taking me and that we have broken up a month ago. I quickly grabbed my phone and texted Zach to not park close to my house that way I could avoid problems. He texted back instantly saying it was fine.

I turned back to mirror and got ready. I started with my makeup. I did a smokey eye look Which took me longer than I anticipated.

(Makeup look above^^)

I then moved on to my hair and I decided to just leave my brown hair naturally straight. By now it was half six and I seriously had to get a move on. I held up the dress the girls picked out for me a week ago and slipped it on. It looked even better now that I had makeup on.

I stood in front of mirror and observed myself. I threw on a pair of black heels and grabbed the silver Clutch my mom lent me for the night. Just as I was about to sit down on my bed I heard my doorbell ring. My eyebrows furrowed in confusion and I walked over to my window to see who it was. My eyes nearly fell out of my eye sockets when I saw Zach's car and most importantly when I saw he wasn't in there.

I grabbed my things and ran down the stairs, Well tried to. Running in heels wasn't my forte. Before I opened the door I noticed my mom want even in the living room which was good. I pulled open the door and saw him standing on the porch. He had a black suit with a red tie. In his hands were a a bouquet of red roses and he was smiling.

"Hey you look beautiful" he smiled. I completely ignored his compliment.

"What are you doing? I said you shouldn't knock" he was about to answer when I heard my mom come down the stairs.

"Aaron is that you?" She asked. Once she saw that it wasn't him she looked confused. "That's not Aaron...Sierra what's going on?"

Zach then leaned into me "did you not tell your mom you and Aaron aren't dating anymore" he whispered

"You're What now?" My mom questioned moving down a step. I squeezed my eyes shut and pinched the bridge of my nose.

I turned back to Zach and glared at him. "Thanks a lot big guy" I then turned to mom who looked more confused than ever. "Mom I'll explain later but I have to go" and with that I pushed Zach backwards. We entered his car and drove off. I sighed and leaned back. "Why didn't you just wait in the car"

"Because that's not gentlemen like" he answered. For the rest of the car ride we just listened to the music that was playing form the radio. After ten minutes we arrived at the school. I could see a few people walking into the school and some were just hanging around the entrance. We got out of the car and we were about to make our way in when he held out his arm. I gave him a small fake smile and linked my arm around his. I was already being rude after not excepting his compliment and shouting at him so may as well.

When we entered the gym it looked completely different from when I last saw it. The only thing giving it away that it was a sports hall was the basketball hoop and the bleachers to the right. At the top of the hall was where the DJ was set up. I then spotted my group and we walked over to them. "Hey guys" I smiled. "Sierra!" Steph said and threw her hands around me. She looked absolutely stunning and so did Veronica.

The boys looked great too. Josh was next Veronica and he had a blue bow tie. I then turned to Justin who had a blonde girl on his arm. I realised this must be his girlfriend that he was talking about a few weeks ago.

"Oh my God are you Justin's girlfriend?"

"She is indeed" he said and pulled her closer to his. My smile widened at that.

"Yeah I'm maya" she said and stretched her hand towards me. I ignored her hand and pulled her into a hug.

"I only do hugs" I laughed. "I'm Sierra"

"Cool. Is that your boyfriend?" She asked pointing to Zach who was next to me. Everyone stifled a laugh.

"No he's just my date here" I laughed. She nodded and moved back closer to Justin's side. It was then I noticed Aaron and next to him was his date. I still don't even know her name. She was wearing a black strapless dress and her hair was curled. Aaron though looked absolutely handsome in his suit. He was in an all black suit with a black tie to go with her dress.

"Hey"

"Hey" he replied but his eyes weren't on me. His eyes were fixed on my arm which was wrapped around Zach's from earlier.

Then the girl he was with stepped forward and pulled me into a hug. "Hi I'm Jennifer" I was taken a back by the gesture and pulled her off me. She frowned slightly.

"What are you doing?"

"I thought you said you only do hugs?" she nervously laughed

"Yeah only with the people I like" I muttered under my breath but the girls heard me and snickered amongst themselves.

"Ok enough talking and more dancing" Josh cheered

Twenty minutes later I found myself sitting on the bleachers with Veronica. The boys were currently trying to convince the DJ to play a song by Drake and I asked Zach a few seconds ago to grab me a drink. "Where's Steph?" I asked. We lost her in the first few minutes of dancing and had no idea where she went. Veronica roamed her eyes threw the crowd of sweaty teenagers.

"Wait there she is...and she's with a girl" Veronica smirked.

"What? Where?" I badly wanted to see who Steph was with. Veronica pointed into her direction which was closer to the back of the crowd. Sure enough I could see her green dress and next to her was girl in a dark blue dress. Next thing I knew the girl was whispering in her ear and dragged her out of the gym. "Oh my God did you see that" I said with widened eyes

"Yeah looks like Steph has a secret lover she's not telling us about" she laughed

If what Veronica is saying is even slightly true then I'm so happy for Steph. Ever since she came out last summer, she hasn't found someone who was interested.

"Come with me to the bathroom. I need to retouch my makeup" she said grabbing her bag. We walked out of the gym and made our way to the bathroom. There wasn't many girls in there, just a few. "So you and Zach huh" she teased.

I rolled my eyes at her and straightened out my dress. "Don't get ahead of yourself. You know the only reason I'm here with him is because you made me" I glared

"Yeah ok but you could have said no"

She's right. I could have said no. It was probably very obvious that I only came with him to make Aaron jealous. I was about to respond when the door burst open. We both whipped around and saw Steph and the girl she was with earlier. She was panting and looked like she ran a marathon. "Steph?"

"Sierra..you need to come with me now" she said in between breaths

"Why? What's wrong?" I asked stepping towards her.

"It's Aaron and Zach. They got into a fight and I swear if someone doesn't stop them they will kill each other"

My eyes widened and I turned back to Veronica. "We have to go" she yelled. Steph was the first one out and directed us to where they were. I tried to keep up but these heels were slowing me down.

"Screw this" I mumbled. I chucked off my heels and held them in my right hand. As Steph led us to where they were I realised that we were heading towards the entrance of the school. Why the hell were they outside? She opened the doors and that's when I could hear it. The punches and the grunts got louder and louder as we got closer and closer. My eyes nearly flew out of sockets when I saw the scene in front of me. In the centre of the parking lot I could see Aaron and Zach throwing punches at one another. Both their suit jackets were removed and their shirt were no longer white but red from the blood. Justin and Josh were trying to stop the fight from happening and I could see Maya standing back a little with tears rolling down her face.

"AARON STOP!" he stopped for a second and looked at me but Zach took that as an opportunity to punch him in the face, knocking him straight to the ground and I saw some blood splatter onto the floor. It took both Josh and Justin to removed Zach from Aaron's body. I ran over to Aaron's body which was laying on the floor. He groaned in pain before standing up. "What the fuck is wrong with you?! Why the hell are you both fighting?" I yelled angrily

"I saw him drug your drink and he tried denying it" Aaron answered. He then pushed his hands into his pocket and threw a small plastic bag with a white powder at his Zach's feet.

"I also overheard his plans on what he was going to do with you once you were passed out"

I felt sick.

"That's bullshit! It's not mine"

"Shut the fuck up Zach!" I screamed. "God how many other girls have you done this. Just get out"

He didn't even bother saying sorry. He just scoffed and limped away.

I turned back to Aaron. "Can you drive?" I asked. He nodded his head. "We need to go back to my house and clean you up. You're a bloody mess" I grabbed his arm and placed it over my shoulder. I helped him into the drivers seat and slammed the door shut. As he turned on the ignition I walked over to the passengers seat. "I'll call you guys tonight" I said to the group before ducking into the car.

Heyyy lovelies. It's been a while. I'm sorry for not posting on Friday but as from next week I'll be back on schedule as I'm done my exams. I'm also officially a 6th year now(my last year before I go to college) so that's great.

Anyways I hope you guys liked this chapter. Let me know your thoughts and what you think will happen next.

Xoxo
