Sophia

Chapter eight

Sophia

Slowly but surely, Saturday rolled around as did homecoming.

I hadn't spoken to Zach since what happened in the bathroom but that's not fully my fault. He hasn't spoken to me either. We are both at fault.

Anna came over so we could get ready together. I'm dreading today. I don't want to go. It's going to be boring and weird and awkward.

James walked into my room but I kicked him out considering his girlfriend is getting ready in here. Yes they're official and it's cute as hell. He informed us he was going to Zach's house to get ready and they'll come get us in two hours.

In two hours it will be six thirty, twenty minutes before homecoming starts giving me time to guilt trip Zach into getting me food. I'm hungry.

We did our makeup first which took no time at all. We did what we do everyday just more highlighter.

Our hair is what took a long time. We both have extremely thick and long hair. So straightening it took me at least twenty minutes to get it the way I want it.

After about an hour and a half of getting ready and going on our phones, we got our dresses out of my closet and let them sit for a minute while we picked out our shoes.

I chose the only fancy heels I have that I got for my sixteenth birthday. They're a pair of thick heeled black Louboutins.

We put on our dresses just as the boys pulled in just so we could make them wait a minute. James texted Anna telling her that they were here in separate cars and she told them to come in cause we could take a few minutes.

That's not true though. We are ready minus our dresses and shoes. That shouldn't take more than two minutes.

But it's the thrill of the chase.

J told me that the girls will probably take a few minutes so we should just go inside to wait.

I don't want to do this. Go to homecoming, I mean. If I could have it my way, Soph and I would be sitting in her room watching those stupid ass cartoons she loves so much and eating a ton of unhealthy shit.

Of course I like her. I mean it's Sophia. Everyone likes her. It's hard not to. Other than me, she's nice to every person she comes across. But I like she's not nice to me. I like how she's not scared to brutally make fun of me. It's different. Every other girl bows down at my feet and it's annoying.

Sophia isn't normal. Shes unusually gorgeous. She has the best hair I've ever seen and she barely even tries to make it look like that. She has the most amazing eyes. They're the only green color I like.

And she has a perfect body. Not to sound like ever other guy you would talk to but it's true. She has curves in all the right place. She's perfect in every way.

We waited for the girls to come down stairs in the living room. My leg was bouncing the whole time. Obviously I didn't ask her because of Jake. If he ever looked at her the wrong way he would be dead.

We waited and waited until after probably five minutes, we heard the girls coming down the stairs. We got up and went to see them when my eyes met her.

"Holy shit" I said under my breath.

She's perfect. Her dress complements her skin tone perfectly. Her heels make her legs look better than they already do, and that's saying something.

And her body. Good god she was gorgeous.

She walked over to me and I couldn't help but stare at her. How I got her to go to this with me is beyond me but it's the closest I'm ever getting to a date with her so I'm going to enjoy it for as long as possible.

"Got a staring problem, Abraham?" She said knocking me out of my trance. I looked at her and noticed her smiling at me. "You weirdly don't look terrible." She said looking at me.

I tried harder than I've ever tried for this. I went shopping. I've never gone clothes shopping like this.

I wore black pants that the man told me we're good and a white button up with the top buttons undone so some of my chest was exposed. I bought the jacket that goes with the pants so if she got cold I could give it to her.

I wanted to cover up the fact that her saying that made me feel good but I couldn't. "You look-" I started to say but she interrupted me.

"Gross? Fat? Extra? I know, I know." She said.

I grabbed the hand she was waving around and held it in mine for a second. "I was going to say you look beautiful." I said, causing her to blush.

"Why are being like this? Your making it harder." She mumbled as she lowered her head. I let go of her hand and she looked back up at me. "Can we get food? I haven't eaten since this morning." She said. It annoys me when she doesn't eat. I smiled at her and nodded my head.

We got in the car and drove to McDonald's before going to the event. It's obvious neither of us want to be driving to homecoming but that's what we're doing. At least I'm with her.

To me, that's all that matters.
