Ditched

Ditched for the dates.

Everyone's hanging with their dance dates, ditching Emi and I. Today we were in the library (Belle, Emi, Carol, Rita, Hannah, and I) when Ralph and Miles (who are best friends) came and whisked Hannah and Belle away. Next came a crowd of popular people, including Simon, and Carol got up and left, too. Jake came in with a huge box of chocolate and it was all so romantic and stuff until the librarian said yelled "NO FOOD IN THE LIBRARY, DANG IT, GET OUT!" 

...And then there were two. 

So Emi turned to me and said what could not be truer: "Love is stupid."

I asked her if she was going to the dance, half expecting a no, but Emi just told me that if they had free food, she was there.

"But the tickets cost money." I said.

"Way less than the food I will consume at the dance will cost, I bet."

"Are you going with anyone?"

"I will never, ever, ever date anyone ever, Catherine, seriously." Then she just turned back to her book.

Emi's the only person who calls me Catherine.

Anyways, I still have not managed to get a date and the dance is tomorrow night. I hope it'll be fun hanging at the food bar with Emi all night long.

I know I said I didn't care, but maybe I do, a bit. Only there's no one left to ask.
