Behind the Costume Chapter 10

Chapter 10

Carter went up with his friends and stood by Aly. Angela, Celia and Hillary were watching carefully. Logan, David and Max stood nearby. "So" said Angela. Aly tapped Carter's shoulder. "This is Carter" Angela's eyes bulged. Celia gasped and Hillary smiled. "Hi girls" said Carter. Aly

sighed with relief. All was going well.

"Hiiii" said Angela. "Hey" said Celia. "What's up?" asked Hillary and she extended her hand. Carter took it, shook it and asked Hillary about her liking of sports. The girls got drinks and the two minutes were over. Carter walked away.

"Oh my god, Aly!" hissed Angela. "That was an eighth grader! How in the world did you get him?" She was very impressed. Aly almost said to go thank Stephanie. Celia went on about how she would've dressed better if she knew and Hillary whined about not checking the news for the latest sports game. "Dudes" said Aly. "We're not boyfriend and girlfriend. It was just this dance" "Well it was actually a perfect idea. We are now the most popular girls in the sixth grade. We hold the Alpha title" Angela grinned. "Just wait until the eighth grade girls hear about you" Aly felt good. Everyone was happy now. Almost.

The DJ announced a couples dance. "Let's get our dates!" cried Celia. "Let's" said Angela. They ran off leaving Aly. This was bad. Dancing was not the plan. "I don't want to dance" said a boy's voice. Aly turned around.

That had been Logan speaking to Angela! Angela gasped along with Celia and Hillary. Aly hurried to find a seat in the back away from them all. Then she realized that Logan had followed her. Hopefully Angela didn't notice. Yikes!

"Aly I need to talk to you" said Logan. He sat down next to Aly. Aly's heart was beating really fast. "At Angela's party I was going to say that I think you've changed" he said. Aly looked into his blue eyes. "Whats that supposed to mean?" she asked. Logan sighed. "In fifth grade you were funny but now you look different and your personality seems different" Aly understood. She was different. Get on with it Logan!

The party was over realized Aly. She had a moment to spare before Stephanie's mom got here and Carter escorted her. "I have to go" she said to Logan. Aly began to run. But she tried to turn in the crowd. Logan was yelling something at her. "Angela called me. Otherwise I would've chose you!" it sounded like. Aly smiled to herself. Logan liked her after all. She had learned that not everyone was to be trusted and to pay close attention.

She realized she had work to do. Her birthday was very soon and a party needed to be planned. So much was in store for her and she couldn't wait to find out what the surprises would be. At home she opened up her Yahoo! Mail and sent a quick reply to Stephanie's plan.
