Oops, You're Cute

Chapter 2

I woke up to the smell of pancakes, I grabbed my phone and checked the time 2:34pm.
I groaned and sat up and stretched, Vince was still asleep. I got out of his bed, and he woke up. Oops?
"Oh good morning Sawyer." Oh my God, his morning voice is so cute!!
"Good morning." I said.
"You want me to take you home so you can get ready?" He asked, getting out of bed.
"Sure."
He took me home and I realized I looked like a mess, my mascara made me look like a racoon and my hair was all over the place. Ew, I said looking into the mirror.
I fixed my hair and redid my makeup, I actually look like a person now.
I put on a different outfit, I put on a pink vs sweater, black ripped jeans, and some black vans. I told my mom I'm gonna get a dress with Angel, and she told me to be safe. Yeah she says it every time I go somewhere. I ran out to Vince's car.
"Sorry, I took so long" I said, buckling my seatbelt.

"It's fine, I take longer most of the time." He said and started his car.

I laughed and we drove to Angel's house to pick her up.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We made it to her house and I texted her to come outside.

"Hey Sawyer and Vincent!" She said getting into the backseat.

"Hey Angel!" Vince and I said at the same time, we turned do each other and laughed.

"I feel like I'm third wheeling." Angel said, making a pouty face.

"You're not." I laughed and Vince started his car up. We drove to the mall and the car ride was filled with laughs and smiles. Cheesy? Duh. We made it there and me and Angel ran inside, and Vince walked slowly and laughed, not knowing that when we go to the mall, it's chaos.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"What about this one?" I held up a strapless dress with black and white polka dots on the top, and colbalt blue on the bottom. It was a little on the shorter side, but I was going to wear tights with it anyways, it's always too damn cold.
"I love it!" Angel said.
"Yeah, it's pretty cute." Vince said. I felt my face get hot. He likes this one? Hell yeah, I'm gonna get it.
"Yeah it's only $50.00, I'm getting it." I said walking up to the counter.
Angel picked up a longer peach dress that looked really good on her, I could never pull it off. After getting our dresses we got shoes, I got black heels with a bow on the front, and Angel got sandals, that matched her dress perfectly.

"Are you going to the dance too?" I asked Vince.

"I don't think so." He said, putting his hands in his pockets.

Angel finished buying her things, then we left.
We dropped Angel off at her house so she could get ready and I went back home and Vince said he'd go back home and I have to text him so he can pick me up. Maybe I should convince him to go.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I took a shower and washed my hair, it smelled like marshmallows, my favorite. I got a text from Angel.
Angel: I got asked to the dance!
Me: by who?!
Angel: by Luke!
Me: omg go to the dance with him!
Angel: are you gonna be mad?
Me: of course not.
Angel: okay, thanks saywer!
I put my phone down, ugh, now I really need Vince to go, I don't want to go alone.
I texted him and asked him to go with me, I explained why and made sure he knew I wanted him to go with me because I don't want to be alone. He said that he would. I can't believe I'm going to the dance with Vince!
I finished getting ready by curling my hair and doing my makeup, I put on my dress and shoes, and walked downstairs.
"Where do you think your going?" My mom said.

"Um, I'm going to the dance. You knew that." I said confused.

"With who?" She asked.

"Angel. Who else would I go with?" I walked down the rest of the stairs.

"That guy Vincent? I called Angel's mom and she told me you didn't spend the night at her house. And she asked Angel who she could be with and she said you could be with him."

"Oh. But look, I'm going to the dance with Angel. We bought tickets and everything!"

"You can go, but if I hear that you went with that guy, you'll be in big trouble, understand? I want you to stay away from him, I heard he's a bad kid."

I didn't want to argue with her, so I said okay and said bye. Vince was outside waiting for me. He wore a black suit, with a white shirt and a black tie, and his hair looked messy, but on purpose.

"Wow, I didn't know you could look so fancy." I said walking up to him.

"I could say the same for you, but you look gorgeous, so there's really no point of me saying that." He laughed and hugged me, I hugged him back. I blushed like crazy though, it's a good thing it's nighttime or he'd see it.
"Angel got asked to the dance so we don't have to get her." I say getting into his car.

"Who did she get asked by?" He asked, driving away from my house.

"Luke..her crush since elementary school." I said.

"Oh, it's good that she has someone to go with."

"True. I told you earlier that she was going with someone else." I said, confused of course.

"Yeah I wasn't really paying attention, I was kinda confused why you would want to go to the dance with someone like me. Usually, if a girls best friend goes with someone else they stay home and eat ice cream and watch Netflix." He laughed, stopping at a red light. Our school is about 15 minutes away from my house.

"That only happens in movies, and look, it's probably weird but I got all ready and didn't want to go alone. Plus you deserve to have a night of fun too, right?" I said turning to him.

"I guess, and it's not weird. Were just going as friends so it's okay." He said, turning onto a road that led to the school.

I know we're friends, but that hurt me a lot. Now I know, he seriously doesn't like me.

"Right." I said going on my phone, looking at tweets and instagram pictures of everyone already at the dance. We got to the school, and instead of waiting for him to open the door I got out myself and started walking to the school.

"Hey! Wait up!" I heard Vince say from behind me.

"Sorry, I wanted to hurry and get inside, it looks like fun." I said stopping waiting for him. He caught up with me and held out his arm, like how they do in movies, and I hooked my arm with his, I didn't want him to think I was mad. I was though, I was mad and sad...ugh what is this guy doing to me?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We walked into the auditorium, where the dance was held of course, and there was snowflakes hanging from the ceiling, the whole place had a winter theme to it. Snowmen, snowflakes, Christmas trees etc. (It's December 13, there not on winter break until December 20th). It was perfect, but of course that didn't last for long. I saw Vince's ex coming up to us.

"What are you doing with this skank?" She asked, looking at me disgusted. Her name is Seirra, she's one of the prettiest girls in school, so she thinks she can talk to anyone like that.

"She's not a skank. At least she hasn't slept with over 15 guys in the past week." Vince said. My eyes widened, why would he say that? He's not usually like that.
"Look, I know you're better than her. Why don't you just come back to me?" She said, I rolled my eyes at her.

"Because, I'm actually in love with her." He said, walking away, taking me with him.

Did he just say he's in love with me?
