Grace's POV


What am I going to do?!!

What in the world was I thinking when I agreed to go to prom with him?!

When did everything become so complicated?


It became complicated since the day he caught you staring at him.


I was watching him and not staring at him.


Yeah, you keep telling yourself that.


I will.


I just finished my internal battle with myself, a shower, and finished getting ready as well all in 45 minutes.


I still cannot believe Luke dated that Diane girl just make her ex jealous! Who the hell does that?!! Personally I think those who try to make their ex jealous has an IQ level equal to a gym sock or even lower. Seriously, if you're not over him or her don't go around and make them jealous because it'll just make you look like an idiot, and why don't you just admit it to yourself that you're not over them. Why go and waste your time to stir up jealousy?

It's pointless.

Even a girl like me, who has zero experience with relationships can tell jealousy is definitely something to avoid in or out of a relationship. It just ends up more complicated than it ever was.

I sighed to myself as I stared at my reflection. I wore a midnight blue dress that stopped right below my knees and it was surprisingly comfortable even when at first glance looks like I don't have room to breathe. My mom got me the dress last week for the dance, but I told her I wasn't going, now I'm glad she did buy me the dress and kept it hidden in my closet.

And I'm positive that she was literally jumping for joy in New York, might I add, when I told her I was going to the dance with the and only Luke Hemmings.


2 hours earlier...


I was about to get in the shower when all of a sudden my phone rang. I looked at the caller i.d. and it was my mom.


"Hey mom, what's up?" I said as I sat on my bed beside the the outfit I laid out.


"Oh, I was just checking in. So is Luke there with you or is he at home getting ready for the dance?" My mom sounded disappointed that I wasn't going to the dance.


"Mom, if you must know Luke is not here and yes he is getting ready for the dance." I heard her sigh on the other end of the line. "Mom are you gonna stop acting disappointed, if I go to this stupid dance?" I asked, I hate seeing or hearing my mom disappointed.

"Yes!!! I'd like you to for once act like a teenager and not like a 36 year old widow." I could hear my father say something in the lines of 'Leave her alone.'

"Alright..." I gazed at myself at the mirror and I saw completely different person. She was beautiful, tall, not too skinny or fat, someone who could actually be able to look great beside the one and only Luke Hemmings. Even if I'm wearing just a towel.

"So you are going?!!" My mom giggled like a high schooler at the end.

"Yes, I am." I said as I put my phone on speaker so I could finish getting ready.
