After homecoming, Lamelo was more willing to be seen with me. Of course, Lonzo and Cassandra and Willa knew, but to our surprise, they didn't care that much. I mean, to be fair, we were 15 going on 16. They probably hoped it wouldn't be anything serious, and luckily for them, they were right.
But anyway, when Lamelo and I first got together, it was kind of deep into the high school hoopers iceberg. People knew, but it wasn't super known, you know? I'm surprised we went that lowkey given our popularity. I thought we would have been a little more... known? I don't know, Lamelo was a ladies' man, even back at 16. Whatever, lowkey or not, it doesn't change the fact he left.
Sophomore year was the most I'd ever gotten of Lamelo. I had hand-holding, actually talking during tournaments, I even had a couple of dates by definition. We never called them dates, but they certainly were. Anyway, as sophomore year progressed, he and I were in this weird position where we were kind of dating, but we never had a label on it. I think it's called a situationship... but whatever it was, I hated it. He stopped entertaining other girls and I stopped talking to guys who were interested in me. He wasn't my boyfriend, and I wasn't his girlfriend, but we didn't want the other to see or talk to anyone else. I didn't understand why until prom that year.
I was the last of my friends that year to get a promposal. Even then, Lamelo's promposal was him just asking me through text. My friends had more extravagant promposals, but I didn't care that much. I had the comfort of knowing he was mine, and even then that comfort didn't last for long.
Prom night rolls around. I'd been in my dress–it was this seafoam green sequin dress– and my sister did my hair and makeup. Willa was always better at all that feminine stuff. She did my eyeshadow to match my dress, and I looked... amazing. I wish he'd seen me that night, but he didn't. Because while I was waiting for him to pick me up, he was packing his luggage to go to Lithuania.
I missed my sophomore year prom and cried in my prom dress that night.
LOVE LETTERS FROM SHAY.
Poor Winona... anyway the next act is also relatively short but that's when the tea starts...
