From The Very Beginning

Chapter Seventeen, Eightteen

It was prom night and I had asked Cami to the dance of course we were dating so I asked her as soon as prom talk started. I was wearing a black suite loaned from my Dad and my Mom came up into my room to help me with my tie. "Oh... honey you look so handsome!" My Mom started to cry for the hundredth time tonight. "Mom please don't cry again. And thank you." She smiled and helped me with my tie. "Camilla should be here in a few minutes and then you're good to go. "Thanks Mom." I walked with her down the steps and then grabbed the teal corsage for Cami. A second later the doorbell rang. I raced into the living room and towards the door. I opened it to find Cami in a teal long silk dress with teal roses scattered throughout her long curly braided hair. She was stunning. "Cami, you look gorgeous!" Cami smiled and then stuffed a teal rose into the pocket of my suite. "Thank you." I smiled and slipped the teal corsage on her wrist and then kissed her hand. "Thank you." We smiled at each other for a minute or so before my Mom came into the room with her camera. "PHOTO TIME!" We hurried outside and posed with each other in front of our big oak tree. After my Mom finished the pictures we climbed into my old truck. Cami flipped on the radio because we both loved music but neither of us knew the song being played. She was about to change the station when a song came on neither of us had heard before but we both liked the beat. Then we started singing along to the second verse after hearing the lyrics. We sang our hearts out and looked at each other and smiled brightly, once the song ended Cami turned the radio down and looked at me. "That's our song." I smiled and turned to her at the stoplight. "Yes it is." We talked about how much we liked the song until we pulled up to the school. We danced with a group of our friends for a while and then we did couples dancing after a while it was time to announce prom king and queen. "THIS YEAR'S PROM QUEEN IS...CAMILLA SANCHEZ!" I hugged her tightly and then kissed her cheek. She walked up the steps and then they put the tiara on her head and she held the flowers smiling but I knew from the look on her face she was nervous about who the king would be. She didn't want to dance with someone she didn't know well or didn't like. "AND THIS YEAR'S PROM KING IS...ZANE BELL!" I stood in shock for a moment...I never assumed I would get enough votes. I walked up on stage and they placed the crown on my head. "GIVE A GOOD CLAP FOR THIS YEAR'S QUEEN AND KING!" Me and Cami took hands and then bowed. "Alright you two what song?" Cami looked at me and I smiled back in return. "Ho Hey by Lennon And Maisy." The DJ nodded his head and we walked hand in hand to the dance floor. We danced to our song that night.
