I feel so bad for taking so long on the last chapter! So I get this one done quickly for you guys :)

I was stuck for the title of this chapter and came across this amazing song by Megan Nicole on youtube that seems perfect for Julianna!

In my moment of panic, I bounced up knocking head with Will, causing both of us to yelped in pain. 'I am not ready to have sex yet!' I half shouted. Oops...I think that was too loud.

Will was rubbing his head and froze when he heard my little out burst. We sat in an awkward silence, I was wrecking my brain trying to find something to say that might diffuse the atmosphere a little. I am such an idiot.

I was too embarrassed to look at Will so I just stared at my lap. I heard Will made a weird noise that sounded between a laugh and a cough. I sneaked a glance up, his expression was unreadable, I know that teenage boys have um... urges, but I am not ready for it yet. We never talked about this before, nor had we gone far enough. So I had no idea what his reactions would be.

'Anna.' he sighed when he said my name. Then he scouted back and held me close to him with his arms around me. So this is a good sigh, right? He should be moving away if he wants to break things off.

'I am not that kind of guy, I thought you knew that.' He said, planting a gentle kiss on my head. I can't help but melted a little, phew. I have certainly grew too attached to him for us to break up now. I think I am falling in love with him, fast.

Me, Ugly Julie, falling in love with Will Knight the jock. Who would have thought all this was possible?

'I would not force you to do anything you don't want to. OK?' Will said, pulling me back a little to look at me probably. I nodded, he is too sweet! I just hope my heart won't be shattered into a million pieces when we broke up. Haha, this is me, the pessimist, thinking about the worst thing at the best moments. But it always pays to be prepared for the worst scenarios.

'Thank you.' I said gratefully, Will patted my head and smiled. 'Now go and do whatever it is that girls do before a dance.' He said, making shooing motions with his hands making me laugh. I gave him a kiss on the cheek before leaving. I need to get a new eye liner and shoes and stuff.

~~~~~~~~~~~

'Oh Anna, you look gorgeous!' Hannah exclaimed as Alison pulled away from me, finishing my make up. I smiled nervously, haven't yet looked in the mirror myself. It was already the night of the dance, Will had managed to convinced his friends so us girls are all here getting ready for the dance.

My Dad had a function, but my Mum had stayed home, she was kind of afraid that we might end up breaking all the valuables in the house, and she also to take photos before we leave. She was so thrilled when she found out I started to 'participate' in school.

I had invited Alison (who had became like my personal stylist/mentor), Melissa, Hannah, Lizzy, along with Bethany and Olivia (whom are Alison's friends that I had sat with during lunch and became friends with, since they are not snotty or mean) to get ready at my house. Our dates are going to pick us up together so that we can get our pictures taken together.

'Not as gorgeous as you Han.' I replied, giving her a wink making her blush. She looked absolutely god-smacked in that red dress, with her hair a gold wave and make-up done to perfection. Oliver will so has a heart attack when he sees her.

Alison frowned at my face for a while before declaring that she was finally done and rushed off to help Olivia, who was shouting about some make-up malfunction. Olivia and Bethany did their own make-up and hair, while Melissa and Olivia helped the rest of us. I was the last one to be done, I shuffled around nervously, trying to find a mirror space to look at myself.

I had to walked over to my sister's room to finally find a spot where I can look at myself. I gasped, know this sounds pretty cheesy, but wow, I almost didn't recognise myself. Alison had done such a good job on my hair and make-up.

My dress was a pretty white bandeau dress with a heart shaped neck line with black beaded flowers adorning under the bust. Layers of white netting arranged into twirls hitting mid-calf. It was beautiful, formal enough and not too pricy. (I am vertically challenge, so it was a great length for me)

My hair was curled into perfect ringlet falling down just past my bare shoulder and pull into a half up-do with top half as a artfully arranged bun. She had done a deep purple smokey eyes on me with a hint of silver, she also somehow managed to stick some fake lashes on, I battered my eye lashes and smiled, she is such a life saver! I would probably be disastrous and ended up having to go to a salon, or let Gina turn me into a pink barbie.

I twirled around a little, admiring myself. (so I am a little self-obsessed, sue me!) I catch a glimpse of the clock, oh crap... we only have five minutes before the guys arrive to pick us up!

I rushed back into my room, startling my friends. 'We have five minutes.' I said, slightly out of breath from nerves and adrenaline, pointing at the clock, they all stared up at the clock and back to me simultaneous, then all burst into frantic activities, trying to get things in clutch, fix make-up, hair, put their shoes on.

I grabbed my pair of pale golden-cream peep toe heels and tie the stripe on before snatching my white clutch and shoving some money, lip gloss and a mirror in it. The rest of the girls all get their stuff just as the door bell rang.

'Right on time.' Alison said, putting the last pin in her hair. We all headed down the stairs, giggling and laughing. My mum had answered the door and I saw that Will and Luke were already there, the others' dates must still be on their way.

My mum had a camera in her head and was talking to Will and Luke. Since I have Gina as an older sister, my mum had been pretty loose on me, therefore I didn't have to worry too much about her interrogating my date. Pheww, although if it was my dad, he would probably get his shot gun out (it's fake, but no one knew, so half of Gina's dates ran away in fright when it was brought out).

Just then the door bell rang again, my Mum had left to open the door and I walked towards Will. He was in a tux with a cream tie to match me (my shoes really, white or black ties are kind of weird). He was staring right at me, transfixed. I smiled brightly, feeling ever so glad and thankful to Alison. Will seemed to have recovered and gave out a wolf whistle, holding out his hand and bowing at me.

'M'lady.' He said, I laughed and put my arm around his. Then the noises behind us caught my attention and I turned to see that everyone's date had arrived. I finally found out that Alison was going with Jake, can you believe that? Apparently they had Geography together and some how he ended up asking her, and Ali said that she had refused everyone by then therefore said yes to his offer. I doubt that's the truth, but I wasn't going to push her into telling me. There were little chances of the two falling in love, or so I hoped and prayed.

Melissa, of course was going with Luke; Lizzy was going with Edward, a nice if not slightly too gangly nerd; I craned my neck to see that Oliver was gawking slightly at Hannah, who still looked a bit uncomfortable in the dress. Not that Oliver noticed, he was too busy checking her out, this part of mission is a definitely succeed.

I caught Alison's eyes and gave her a thumbs up. She glanced over at Hannah and Oliver and gave me a knowing smile. We are just too good at this. OK, mostly Alison, but I helped. Hebe.

My Mum had ushered us all in the living room for better lighting and took like a gazillion photos of us. We all had to rushed out into the limo waiting outside because it kept honing to get us out.

We all had to rushed out and get on the limo before the driver decided he had waited long enough and left us there.

'Sorry, let's go.' Will said, I can't helped but giggled as he tried to untangled himself from the others and sit back up properly. Me and Will sat at the corner while the others all sat together in couples too.

'You look beautiful Anna, sorry that I didn't get a chance to tell you earlier.' Will whispered, tucking a strand of my loose hair behind my ear. I blushed furiously, muttered a word of thanks slightly incoherently, my heart beat quickened to an unhealthy pace. At that precise moment, I was pretty sure that I have fallen in love with Will. Oh my god... this is... crap. Or good? Arghhh.

I took a deep breath and composed myself. 'You don't look half bad yourself.' I teased back at him making him laugh. He didn't seemed to noticed my change in mood, if he did, he wasn't showing it. I was glad for that, I still need to figure out my emotion, I mean, isn't it too early for me to fall in love, especially with a popular guy.

'Come here Anna bear.' Will said putting his arm around me and I snuggled into his chest, his chin resting on my head. 'I am really glad that you are coming with me to Snow Ball.' he said, lightly kissing the top of my head.

'Me too.' I said. Then we noticed that the limo had suddenly gone quite and that everyone was looking at us.

'Ewwwwwwwwwwwwww' Hannah and Melissa started, the others soon decided to join in their

shoo-Will-and-Anna parade. 'No PDA OK?' Alison said, shaking her finger at us and tutting. I was blushing scarlet at that point, while Will seemed to be very calm and smiled at all this.

We blasted music loudly, chatted happily and soon enough we were in the long queen waiting to be drop off at the hotel.

The annual Snow Ball was held in the Swan Hotel, which had a long history dating back to the 1800s, with the most gorgeous authentic ballroom in town. It was the only attraction of the hotel that had kept it in business for so long.

Finally it was our turn to be dropped off. The crisp night air bite at my bare shoulder and bring a pleasant burning sensation in my lungs as I breathed. The hotel attendants smiled and open the door for us. Will smiled at me and I linked my arms through his and we entered the hotel together.
