First, we go to the plaza to get something to eat before shopping. Veronica gets salad and I get a hamburger and some fries. I start to feel a little fat because of her. "So, I was thinking we should buy the dresses first, then buy the shoes and last, we buy the accessories." Veronica says after taking a bite of her salad.
"Sounds like a great idea," I say picking at my fries, "so... how's you and Miles going?"
"It's going great! He finally asked me to prom!" Veronica says happily.
I was hoping she would have said something bad about their relationship to make me feel better. As if there was a chance he would ask me to prom. Who am I fooling?
"Cool. Are u guys going to wear the same color?" I ask with fake enthusiasm.
"Yes, we're going to wear dark blue. So I have to find a dark blue dress."
After a long conversation about how Veronica met Miles, we finally Finnish our food. We get up and go to the dress store. There's a variety of different dresses. Blue strapless dresses, pink maxi dresses, and black mini dresses. As soon as we got into the store, Veronica starts to get dresses to try on. I walk over to the dresses that are on sale. I want to make sure I don't spend all My dad's money. I look around and see a white dress that has an hour glass shape to it. It is practically lace all over the dress. More like it's made of lace.It's frilly like a skirt at the bottom. The perfect dress for me. I carefully take it off its hanger and go towards the dressing room. I go into an empty booth and change into the dress. I step out of the booth to look at myself. The brightness of the dress is making my brown hair look almost blonde. I like how the dress shows my cleavage and its a strapless dress. Veronica comes out her booth to see me. "Wow, that dress looks great on you! You should wear that to prom." Veronica says cheerfully.
"Okay, I'll buy it now."
I go back into the booth to change back into my original outfit. I go to the cashier that was looking for something. "I would like to buy this." I say getting his attention.
The cashier looks up at me and suddenly he looks familiar. "Adam? Is that you?" I ask. Adam is my boyfriend that stopped calling me a month ago. I thought we broke up.
"Hey, Athena. Nice seeing you here." He says standing up.
"I'm not here to talk I'm here to buy this dress."
I put the dress on the desk and frown at him, obviously not wanting to talk. "Don't be like that. I stoped calling you because I had work to do. You know how my family is with me having a girlfriend." Adam says with apologetic eyes.
His gorgeous blue eyes will not fool me again. Anyways I'm over him. I like Miles now. "So you think that I'm still your girlfriend? Don't make me laugh," I say crossing my arms.
For some reason, it feels as if I still have feelings for him. "Well, I'm back in town and I was wondering if you would go to prom with me?" Adam ask with a low voice.
He leans in closer to me and my face begins to feel warm. Why does he make my heart race like this?
"Don't think that you can just leave me and come back without any problems." I say feeling a little flustered.
"Aw come on, say you'll go to prom with me."
He softly kisses my lips and smiles at me. "Okay, I'll go to prom with you." I say.
Even though I'm enjoying this now I'll probably regret it later. I still seem to be in love with Adam. "Hey Athena, I found the perfect dress!" I hear Veronica say from the dressing room.
I give Adam the money for my dress and go to the dressing room to check on Veronica. Veronica is wearing a dark blue strapless pencil dress. It looks great on her. It shows her curves and everything. It makes me feel insecure. "Wow, it looks great on you!" I say trying to hide my jealousy.
"Thanks! I'm going to get this dress." Veronica say going back into the booth. I wait for her to change and buy her dress. When we leave the store, Veronica smiles at me. "The cashier was so cute. I couldn't take my eyes off of him. Does he go to our school?" Veronica whispers.
"Yes, he goes to our school. He's new, but don't you have a boyfriend?" I say.
How could she be checking boys out and she has Miles as a boyfriend? It makes me a little angry. It might be the fact that she is checking Adam out or the fact that she has Miles and I don't. So complicated.
"I know, but I think I'm still allowed to look at other boys. Its not like I'm kissing them." Veronica says as we go to the shoe store. It was very easy for us to find shoes that match our dresses. Outside the mall was a jewelry stand. I look around at the earrings and I find a pair of hoops that goes perfectly with my shoes. Veronica finds earrings and a necklace that goes with her dress. We buy our things and go back home. She drops me off at my house and I thank her for the ride. I go into the house and dad is watching a football game in the living room. "I'm back, dad." I say going to the kitchen.
"There's some pizza in the microwave." Dad says with his eyes glued to the tv.
I get a slice of pizza and go to my room. I hang up my dress on my bathroom door and put my shoes next to my bed. I put my earrings in my jewlery box and lay down on my bed. How could I let Adam get to me like that? Am I in love with two guys? How could this happen?
Questions start to surround my brain. I fall asleep after a long time thinking.A/N
