Chapter 54

"OH MY GOD OH MY GOD OH MY GOD OH MY GOD! I CAN'T BELIEVE IT'S TOMORROW!" Poppy repeated again for about the tenth time.

"Poppy, calm down, concentrate on ironing your dress or you'll ruin it" I laughed as I turned the iron off, running my hand over the blue material of my dress.

"Done" Liz announced, holding her dress up. Her dress is hot pink, strapless and has a beautiful crystal pattern around the waist. It's gorgeous, perfect for her. I looked at Ellie's and Poppy's. Poppy's was the most expensive, obviously. It's covered with silver sequins and fitted her curves perfectly down to mid thigh where it comes loose. Ellie's is purple with a line of sequins along the top hem. It flows out from the waist and is silk.

I looked at my dress, fiddling with the sequins at the top. I inhaled a deep breath, "I'm kinda nervous" I admitted.

Ellie gave me a questioning look, "why?"

"I dunno, I kinda have a feeling something bad's gonna happen"

"Like what?" Liz asked.

Poppy laughed, "Sel, nothing bad's gonna happen, it's prom! Just enjoy it! Prom's perfect"

"I hope so" I smiled laying my dress out on her bed.

We decided to sleepover at Poppy's tonight just in case she had a seizure or something from being too over excited, just kidding. But she is really excited, she's been jumping around all day none stop, a smile plastered across her face. I can't really believe prom's tomorrow, I mean like, how? It's amazing how time can pass by so quick.

I exhaled a breath I never knew I was holding, as I sat down on the couch in Poppy's room. I looked over at the makeup scattered over her desk and the shoes by the door. I watched as the girls admire their dresses. I can't wait to see Harry in a tux, he looks incredibly perfect in just his pyjamas. So him in a tux will probably make me faint! I smiled at the thought, a blush creeping on my cheeks. I was snapped back to reality as Poppy dropped herself down next to me. "Can you imagine it?" she asked, turning to face me, "I mean, like, dancing under the dim light, on the dance floor, in his arms to the slow music?"

I giggled, "sounds so perfect"

"I know" she smiled, going deep in her thoughts.

"OH MY GOD! THEY'RE GONNA BE HERE IN FIVE HOURS!" Poppy screamed, running around the room as Ellie, Liz and I watched her in amusement.

"Poppy, calm down" her mum said, grabbing her shoulders.

"MUM! WE ONLY HAVE FIVE HOURS TO GET READY! GO GET THE HAIR SPRAY!" she instructed, before running out of the living room.

"She's gone crazy" her mum said, walking towards the kitchen as we laughed.

Poppy returned through the door, poking her head around, 'HURRY UP AND GET YOUR ASSES UP IN MY ROOM!"

"Ok, calm the fuck down" Liz laughed as we got off the couch.

We walked into Poppy's room, where she was running around trying to find something. "I CAN'T FIND MY EARRINGS!" she almost cried.

Ellie pointed to her bed side table, "it's right there"

"Oh... My... Gosh..." I teased as she ran over to get her earrings. We watched as Poppy continued rushing around her room.

She finally stopped and faced us, "stop watching and start getting on with it!" she snapped, grabbing her dress and running towards the bathroom and locking the door behind her. The three of us exchanged looks before we bursted into laughter and sat down at the desk, in front of the mirror and began doing our makeup.

"They're here in an hour!" Poppy shouted, running towards us in her dress. "Get your dresses on!"

"Ok, ok" Ellie said as Poppy pushed the three of us towards our dresses.

"pops, seriously, calm the hell down" I laughed.

"Sel, in my ensuite, El, in the hall bathroom and Liz stay here" she quickly instructed before pulling us into our designated places. I laughed as I locked the door, Poppy's going nuts!

I undressed and pulled my dress on. I took a look in the mirror. My hair was in ringlets, my makeup was natural with a little hint of blue eye shadow, the dress looked beautiful and the love heart pendant around my neck finished it off perfectly. I smiled to myself, I've never felt this beautiful before. I was startled by a hard knock against the wooden door, "you done yet?" the sound of Poppy's voice trailed through the door.

"Yep" I replied, picking up my PJs and walking out. I gasped as I saw Liz and Ellie, they looked absolutely amazing! So much for thinking I looked nice... "Oh my gosh, you guys look amazing"

"Says you!" Liz argued as we took a moment to take in each other's dresses.

"Tonight's gonna be perfect" Poppy smiled, whizzing out of the room.

The doorbell rang, Poppy's eyes widened. "Oh my god... It's time" she whispered, her body stiff.

"Stand up, I'll open the door" Poppy's mum said, running out of the living room. The four of us stood up from the couch nervously. I looked at Poppy as she started shaking.

"You ok?" I whispered as she hesitantly nodded before forcing me a smile.

"They're in the living room" I heard Poppy's mum say from the front door. My body tensed as I heard the boys walk closer. I bit my lip as I saw the four boys enter the room. Harry looks perfect, amazing. He looks like an angel, am I dreaming? His eyes were kept on me as he stood still by the door, speechless, his dimples indented into his cheeks.

"You look beautiful Poppy" Jordan said, being the first person to say something. He walked over and hugged his girlfriend, giving her a light kiss. Niall was the second person to move, walking up to Liz and leaving a kiss to her lips.

"I've never seen someone so amazing in my life" Niall smiled as Liz wrapped her arms around his neck, my attention devoted to the cute couple.

I felt a soft hand lift mine, leaving a kiss to the back of it. I looked up, meeting the gaze of sparkling green orbs. A smile plastered over my face as I bit my lip. I felt his arms wrapped around me, leaving me a delicate kiss on my forehead.

"Photo?" Poppy's mum asked as we all nodded, turning towards the camera.

Harry's fingers entwined with mine as we walked out of the front door, following behind Liz and Jordan. My hand covered my mouth as Ellie, Liz, Poppy and I gasped. Waiting in front of the house was a massive black hummer. I looked up to Harry as he gave me a big smile. I was speechless, actually, I haven't said a thing since the boys had arrived. It just feels so surreal.

We got into the hummer, with some help from our boyfriends. I smiled at Harry as the engine started.

So far, AMAZING!
