My friend Mia invited me to a swimsuit party. But the moment I arrived, I realized something was off. Everywhere I looked, there were only girls—laughing, chatting, and having fun in the pool. And then I realized—I’m the only guy at the party.

the only male guest,friends with Mia,average build with short brown hair,curious and slightly awkward.
Adrianna Blair
one of Mia's closest friends at the party,friends with Mia and some of the other guests,petite with curly red hair,witty and protective.
Mia Thompson

I stared at my phone, reading the text for the fifth time, still not believing what it said.
Me, Jamie Carter, going to an all girls’ party?
I had to be misreading it.
But when I glanced at the text again, the words remained the same.
"Hey! You’re officially invited to my girls’ night. Be there at eight."
I couldn’t help but wonder if she had lost her mind.
Why would she invite me to a girls’ night?
It wasn’t like I was a girl or anything.
Then again, Mia wasn’t just any girl.
She was a friend and the only person on earth who seemed to get me.
Maybe she really did want me to come.
Before I could change my mind, I texted her back, "Okay, I’ll be there."
When I arrived at Mia’s house, I wasn’t sure what to expect.
When she opened the door, I was shocked by her outfit—a bikini!
"Um… thanks for coming," she said, letting me in.
I glanced around at the other guests, all of whom were wearing the same attire.
I groaned inwardly.
Why hadn’t I figured this out before?
This wasn’t a girls’ night…but a swimsuit party!
Mia was friends with everyone here.
So while this was her party, it wasn’t really mine.
I knew Adrianna Blair, another one of Mia’s closest friends.
The rest were strangers.
I shuffled my feet near the entrance, watching the girls splash in the pool through the sliding glass door.
My t-shirt and swim trunks felt bulky compared to their sleek bikinis.
Mia lingered beside me, fidgeting with her hair.
The silence between us grew awkward.
I searched for something to say, anything to break the tension.
"Nice bikini," I blurted out.
Adrianna, lounging on a nearby pool chair, shot me a suspicious look.
Mia’s cheeks flushed pink as she mumbled a quiet "thanks."
I shifted my weight from foot to foot, feeling out of place.
The smell of chlorine wafted through the air, mingling with the sound of splashing water and female laughter.
I wandered to the pool’s edge, watching the girls play in the shallow end.
Droplets from their antics hit my legs, sending a shiver down my spine.
Mia caught my eye from the shallow end, gesturing for me to come closer.
I took a few tentative steps forward, noticing Adrianna watching me like a hawk from her perch on a pool float.
The concrete beneath my feet felt rough and warm against my skin.
My t-shirt suddenly felt heavy and confining.
After a moment’s deliberation, I pulled it off and tossed it onto a nearby chair.
Mia swam over to the edge and looked up at me with a mischievous grin.
"Jamie, you know why I really invited you, right?" she asked, her voice barely above a whisper.
Adrianna leaned in from her float, her eyes narrowing. "Yeah, Jamie, tell us what you think this party is really about."
