Change is good

Prom+more Chapter.15

Emily's point if view:I woke up at 7:30 and I've been sitting in bed since 9:00 just thinking. Today I had a date with Jack and tomorrow I find out if I made it. Sunday morning I usually go for a run or a yoga class but since I had to be ready by 1:00 I decided I had enough time to go to the gym and have a little breakfast with my friend lizzy. It's always nice to catch up with friends out of school, we met as kids in my old dance studio but her family moved a little north meaning we went to different schools. Whenever we hangout we each drive 30 mins to meet up. I caught her up on my modeling and dance, she seemed ecstatic. After breakfast we went to a local clothing store. They had a little bathing suit set up so I decided to get a new suit for my beach date. We said our good byes and went our separate ways. On the drive home I grabbed some sun screen and some
new cheap sunglasses.
I got home and put on my black bathing suit and threw on a lace coverup. I placed my hair in a bun and sprayed sun screen on. I had about 10 minutes before jack was suppose to be there so I decided just to put a bb cream on. I enjoyed wearing little to makeup on weekends since it seems like I'm constantly wearing it. I need to let my skin breathe every once in a while.

Jack was downstairs while I grabbed my things and we headed out. He had the cutest smile.

" Why do you always look so happy?" I asked.

" because you make me the happiest man alive." He said while pulling me in for a kiss.

Jack is probably the most respectful and caring guy I've ever dated and when we first started dating I felt like he might be your average player who basically uses you. But he surprised me and taught me to really get to know someone. Jack has such a soft side to him that I admire. I'm am so lucky and thankful that I get to say he's mine.

We found a good spot on the beach to lay out our towels. I ran out to the water for a sec to test the coldness and as I got a little farther I turned to see jack behind me picking me up and taking to the deeper water. I screamed and laughed as he through me over his shoulders.

" no jack haha it's cold." I squealed.

" don't worry I'll keep you warm after." He said while laughing.

He dunked us both and pulled me up next to him. I jumped on his back as he took us back to our towels. He wrapped me in my towel and had his hands around me. We just sat and talked.

"I'm glad we can have this time together to just relax," said Jack.

I nodded and smiled. We layers there together for about 15 mins before heading back out to the water. I was just sitting at the shore line so the waves would land on me softly when I felt a huge pain in my foot. It felt like someone had stabbed me in the heel of my foot. I screamed a little and Jack ran over to me so fast to figure out what happened. I looked at my foot to see gushing blood. I was so panicked and confused as to how this happened. Jack picked me up and took me to the life guard station while I was in tears. After they cleaned my foot up they found out I got stung by a sting ray. I was a little relieved when I found out I wasn't going to die lol I was pretty freaked out. They bandaged my foot up and I was told to clean it every day. After that incident we decided to get fro yo to cheer me up a little before heading home. I got chocolate and peanut butter yogurt will some simple toppings. I was in a lot of pain and all I wanted to do was sleep. Jack took me home to eat my yogurt since he could tell I was not feeling great.

" Babe I'm sorry today wasn't perfect, I really wanted to give you a nice peaceful day since we've both been so busy." Jack said.

" Aw don't be sorry, today has been so nice and although I wasn't expecting our day going quite like this I'm so thankful to have had a day with you. I may be in pain but I still love today and thank you for making today special." I said before kissing Jack.

He dropped me off and helped me get changed and settled for the evening. Jack left about an hour after we got home so I was just in bed explaining to my mom what had happened.

I fell asleep to music. Tomorrow I had school and I was not looking foreword to getting up early.

*** the next day ***

I woke up with a little pain in my foot but Jack had left me some medicine and his cry he's from when he had his football injury. It felt like a legging and sweatshirt kind of day. I hopped on one foot out of bed to my bathroom to wash my face and brush my teeth. I put some bb cream on and a tad of mascara. My hair was a little dirty so I put it in a bun.

My mom helped me get my stuff together and helped me down the stairs. Jack drove me to school since I couldn't drive.
I got lots of questions at school and I finally made it through the long day. Before jacks football practice he walked me to dance. Not only was I unable to dance but it was the day we find out who was picked. Today wasn't a normal practice and I was excited for it before I found out I'd be on crutches for a week. I kissed Hack good bye and walked into the dance room. Most of the dancers saw me earlier but I had to let my coaches know what happened. They were surprised but when I said I would be out for a week they didn't seem so concerned.

" Emily will you be ready to dance by next Wednesday?" My teacher asked.

" Yes I will be back to normal, but why is it so important for Wednesday?" I asked confused.

" Well it's important to be at your best when your sent on a dance trip." She said with a smirk.

" Wait, what does that mean? Did I ? Really? I asked.

" Yep you were a dancer the academy picked to be apart of their show group. Congratulations!! I know you will be ready by then." She said.

I was so happy and so determined to recover as fast as possible. With this news all I wanted to do was dance no matter how much pain I was in.

I did music while girls were stretching and talking about what they should bring on the trip. There was a total of 10 girls who got picked.
Practice went by pretty quickly do I headed over to the football fields to share my good news with Jack but also let him know it meant I'd be gone Wednesday through Sunday. I sat on the bleachers waiting for their practice to end. As I was sitting I got a text from the model agency. It read:

Hey Emily today marks an exact month until our spring fashion show were we show our new prom line. We'd love to have you be apart of it just let us know by next week if it sounds like something you'd like to be apart of.

I was really excited so far life was great other than the hundred homework assignments and this throbbing feeling in my foot.

Jack came off the field all sweaty of course so I joked that he couldn't touch me until he almost tackled me. I told him my news and he seemed proud although he would be without me for a little.

" I'm so proud I hope you have a great time just don't have to much fun without me." He said while laughing.

" I'll talk to you later, love you Jack." I said leaning in for a kiss.
" Love you more beautiful, I'll pick you up tomorrow morning and we will get some coffee." He said giving me another kiss.

He drove me home and I washed my face and crawled into bed.
