next to her

chapter 7

Third person POV
It was a fresh morning. Birds were chirping and the air was crisp, grass was green and damp with dew.
Vivian was standing infront of her locker and shuffling through books when a hand tapped on her shoulders from behind.
"hey"
Vivian turned around to reveal a blonde girl standing behind her.
"hi...? Do you need anything?" asked Vivian.
"Im Jessica, or jess, and just so you know, PLEASE confess already."
Said the blondie.
What the fuck?
Thought Vivian
"confess to who? And why?"
"ugh, to your crush ofcourse."
"uhhh, what?"
"CMON everyone knows you and faye are in love! Stop delaying it!"
"wait a minute. Please tell me what the fuck do you want me to do"
"are you deaf?"
"no."
"look, prom is coming, and its no mystery someone will try to ask Faye to be their prom date. You have to make sure you are that person."
"why do you even care? I mean, its clear i have never talked to you, we're not friends either."
"who says that? Ofcourse we're friends!"
"since when!?"
"since now."
Vivian sighed with frustration at the bizzare situation.
The girl sheepishly tucked her hair behind her ears and continued
"i just want friends, thats it. And now that we are friends, I will help you get laid."
"i dont need your help, jess."
"i dont take no for an answer. We are friends, i will help you, thats final."
"thats one crazy way to make friends."
"i know. And yeah, go and make a move. Right.now."
"FINE, go ahead, yap, what do you suggest i do?"
"she is at her locker right now. Go and ask her to be her date. Simple."
"its not that simple!"
"it is. Just g- OMG"
"what?"
"ryan just approached her."
"what!?"
"i think he's asking her out."
"how tf do you know that!?"
"i can see it in his face"
"you're crazy!"
"we dont have time for that! Go! Go! Go!"
Vivian dashed towards faye and saw her talking to a boy.
"hey faye"
"oh hey vivian!"
Her face lit up at the sight of vivian.
"uhh if you dont mind, vivian, i was asking faye to be my prom date" said ryan
Then suddenly vivian's mind ran in all directions and she blurted out "she can't"
"why?" asked ryan.
"because Faye is going with me"
"what?"
"yeah, sorry dude."
"fine, i wish you guys luck i guess..."
Faye was speechless the whole time.
She turned to vivian slowly.
"im your...prom date?"
"yeah, got a problem?"
"no! Why would I?"
"great then, I made it just in time"
Faye chuckled and said
"sooo.. About the dresses, what will you wear?"
"dresses? Heck no. I will wear a suit. For my...princess."
Omg, am i really vivian right now? Since when did i know these cheesy pick up lines!?
Thought vivian.
"since when did you learn pick up lines?"
"since i met you."
"are you high?"
"no way!"
"well, i dont have a problem with that. You can continue trying."
Jessica came to their side.
"so i see we got a pair."
"who is this..?" whispers faye.
"long story."
"im jessica, you and vivian's new bestie."
"what the..."
"told you" says vivian
"well, lets go to shopping for the prom after school! It will be sooo fun!"
"um ofcourse. Why not?" says faye trying to absorb the new person in who just entered her life and declared herself their bestie.
This is gonna be fun
