prom. one of the last celebrations before graduation. i had my dress on, makeup done and i was all ready to go.
i love this, it looks like something a princess would wear.
"honey, they're here!" my mom called. i took a deep breath and and headed out of my room, down the stairs. when i hit the bottom step, i turned the corner and saw all of my friends standing together, talking.
"hey guys," i said, causing them to turn around. there he was. mattia polibio, a.k.a my boyfriend since freshman year.
"holy shit," he mouthed.
"are we ready to go?" i asked. everyone nodded.
"wait! where do you think you're going without taking pictures first?" my mom asked. i sighed and smiled. everyone got with their dates, me with mattia obviously, and posed for pictures.
"you look so beautiful right now," mattia said lowly. i blushed and looked up at him, smiling.
"thank you. you look amazing."
"well, i try," he said, causing me to laugh. after that, my mom had us do a couple of basic prom poses and took a bunch of pictures.
"alright, alright, i'm done," she finally said.
"thank you mami. i will see you later," i said, walking up to her and giving her a kiss on the cheek.
"okay. have fun. but not too much fun," she said. that's her favorite line, "ooh, wait!" she pulled my arm back as i was walking away.
"if you do have some fun, use this. please," she said, slipping something into my hand. i took a peek and saw a shiny golden wrapper.
"ma!"
"what? i just want you and mattia to be safe."
