It Started With Hello

Chap. 126

"Are you not going with Blake to prom?" Her mother asked as she walked now stairs in her lavender floor lavender gown it was strapless with a slit down the leg. She bought it with the intention of wearing it for from with Blake plans changed now she's wearing it for herself. She chose to wear the heart necklace Blake got her despite everything but left the ring in her room. Her hair was up out of her face in a high ponytail bangs curled slightly she walks to the couch sitting down she was waiting for Chris to pick her up. She was about to reply to her mother when her father spoke up "Speaking of Blake I haven't seen him around in a while..." Emma bites her lip she didn't want to tell them they broke up. She felt like her mother would rub it in her face nevertheless they would have to know at some point "Actually we...we aren't together anymore tonight I'm going to prom with a friend of mine Chris he's Kandy....well um Clementine's boyfriend" her mother shakes her head not looking very surprised before looking up at the tv. Her silence said it all her father on the other hand looked did look surprised "Why would he break up with you?" there's a knock on the door she stands to answer it. Opening the door Chris stood there with a smile his hair was now jet black styled smoothly "Hey pretty lady ready for prom" she gave him alittle smile he looks past her into the house. He waved towards her parents "Hey Mr. and Ms. Pear I'll get her back in one piece for yah" her mother gives him a small smile while her father looks hesitant about the whole ordeal. She walks out the house closing the door behind her they walk towards the car together "Are you channeling your inner Blake with the black hair or somethin?" she laughs softly pointing toward his hair. They reach the highlighter green sports car and he opens her door "I kinda like this look on me they say once you go black you can't go back. Blake knows and thing or to about that" she laughs pushing him slightly "Shut up Chris" he grins before walking around to his side of the car. Because around Chris was always a good time he was the life of any party maybe tonight wouldn't be so bad after all. He drove toward the school after she gave him the directions and the pulled up outside after a few minutes. The music was blaring out the open doors the windows where blacked out you could only see the flashing lights behind them. He parks the car getting a few jealous looks from students her hands slightly shake on her lap from anxiety. Chris reached over grabbing her hand making her meet his eyes "Relax Emma tonight well be great and if it's not we can blow this place and get pizza and ice cream" she laughs nods and he pulls his hand away they both climb out the car making there way inside. Once they get inside all eyes turn to them weather it's from jealousy because she with Chris or curiosity "Haven't been to a prom in years lets dance first that'll be fun" she nods and he takes her hand leading her farther onto the dance floor. Chris dance around like a manic completely off beat making her laugh "What the heck are you doin?" he stops mid robot looking at her "Dancin" it looked more like he was getting elected or his pants where on fire. But it looked like he was having so much fun she shrugs coping his dance moves. While people around them were grinding on each other they where jump around waving their hands in the air. After a few minutes they are both already tired and out of breath. Chris puts his hands on his hips letting out a poof of air "Wow being a beast on the dance floor is tiring I'll go get you something punch and a cupcake" he makes his way through the crowd toward the snack table. She looks around her eyes fall on a familiar face leaning against the walk looking dark and moody in the leather jacket she got him for christmas zipped all the way up. And a pair of black jeans hair messy in front of his eye's and his eyes where focused on her. She swallows hard looking away a moment before walking towards him he doesn't move from his spot holding her eye contact before his eye's run over her dress. It seems like he approved "You look good tonight" he whispered looking down making her bite her lip. She wanted nothing more then to jump into his arms but she wouldn't let herself give in "What are you doing here?" did he come her with another girl or something? She didn't see anyone when she was walking over "I wasn't going to come but when I went over to try hang with Chris, Kandy said he was here with you" his voice was slightly deeper then usual he seemed jealous. Was he seriously jealous of Chris that was so dumb! Chris was with Kandy "I didn't expect you to want to be hanging out with other guys so quickly" whispered looking away her eyes widen. She let out a snort looking to the side "So what you came to stalk me. To make sure I wasn't hanging out with other guys? You have no right to be jealous after all, your the one that said forget you and live my life" that leaves him speechless. She turns looking at him again "Enjoy your night..." she turns before he could reply walking outside to get some space away from him leaving him standing alone.
