Quincy (quinn) easton is kinda an asshole. All for good reasons though. She finds a way to relieve her anger. She makes some friends along the way, and discovers some shocking truths. The people who love her can only hope in the end she isn't the sa...
The next day was the day of our junior prom. With everything going on I kind of forgot about it. I had gotten a dress from the mall a while ago. It was just this floor length navy dress. It was actually quite pretty, pretty plain but very me.

Since eli and i weren't really talking anymore and I didn't have time to find someone else to go with, sam and miguel were nice enough to let me tag along with them. I felt kind of bad but I'm going to make sure they get the one on one prom experience they deserve.
I sat in my room on the floor infront of my floor length mirror attempting to do my makeup. I never really learned how to do it properly. I kept it simple and light. I never really imagined going to prom but something about getting ready alone, knowing I don't have a date just makes me depressed.
"Hey I'm guessing you'll need this?" Johnny says as he barges into my room with my dress that I had left on the ironing board in the kitchen
"Yeah thanks can you set it there" i say pointing to my bed and he nods leaving it there.
Carmen so graciously offered to do my hair for the dance. Thank god because if she hadn't I would be stuck going with my natural frizzy hair. After I'm done with my makeup i throw on my dress and heels and head to Miguel's
"Hey" i say with a smile as I'm greeted with my bestfriends face. He was in his suit and hot pink how tie
"You look very pretty" he says smiling as he lets me in
"Thank you, you look pretty too" i say laughing
"Mija you look beautiful" Carmen says as she comes into the living room cupping my face in her hands
"Gracias Carmen" i say smiling. I was glad I calmed down after yesterday. I don't know what I would do without Carmen. She's the only mother figure I had. And she clearly makes my dad really happy and that's all I want for him
"Okay sit let me do your hair. Now I had some ideas but I wanted to run them by you first" she says as she plugs the curling iron in
"Don't worry you can do whatever, anything will look better than it now" i say laughing and she smiles. I can tell she was grateful to have me as I was to have her. She obviously doesn't get to do Miguel's hair and talk about girl stuff with him.
While I was getting my hair done miguel sat on the couch next to me and was either on his phone or joining in me and his moms conversation. His Yaya also eventually came out to send her grandson on his way to prom
"Alright and done" Carmen says putting one last Bobby pin in my hair
"Oh wow Carmen... it's gorgeous thank you so much" i say smiling giving her a hug
