Enter into the Abyss

The VW camper vans were fabulous, ours was light turquoise and really beautiful, we were really lucky.

While the girls were all emotional and 'in the moment', i felt confused and began to daydream.

He last texted me this morning, telling me he hadn't got his ticket... however I wasn't much surprised and told him it wouldn't matter. Although, being here right now - i know it mattered.

My expectations of prom were probably at its highest 4 months ago and now it was finally here, I wasn't sure what I was expecting.

'Guys look!' Abi sounded.

i turned my head to notice the massive tank about to enter in before us, then the limo, followed by a hand-made Chinese dragon - which in my opinion, was the best.

Suddenly, i had no time left to faff with the 'what ifs', it was time to enter.

I looked around me, I was with all of my best friends and  it just felt right that I should be with them. Maybe they were all i needed.

When we got out of the van I didn't feel all eyes on me, which of course is a good thing but I felt all of the people judging me before I even walked out of the van.

However, when I arrived I was so happy to see all of my friends, who arrived with different groups, those I love and hug them tight, because they meant an awful lot to me.

it was so nice to have a good twenty minutes of watching people arrive on their transports, pondering about who they could be and always being surprised when they revealed themselves.

' where is he then?' asked Linda

' i'm not too sure, he said he was arriving with Sam.'

'Abi found Gordon then' She said as our eyes found them together stood awkwardly in a circle.

' do you think we should go over there?' asked Cursty.

' I think Abi can handle herself, she's in control.'

I didn't really approve of her date, i knew she could do better. I feel that both me and Abi were slightly invested with this whole prom thing and what was expected of us, the only real difference between us was i feel Abi knew what was going on, i had no clue.
