And Shawn will be there to give you some company!” I glared at her when she said this. “I’m not sure, I’ll think about it.” And I was thinking about it, I wanted to go because I had never been invited to a party like this, or just never found an interest in it. But I had to go and “be” with Shawn so no one would catch on to me not wanting to be around them.
