I wake up on my couch and Ashley is sleeping the couch next to me. We must have fell asleep watching that sad movie, The Fault in our Stars. I pick my phone up and see that its twelve in the afternoon. 'Wait. Today's saturday? I almost forgot about prom!' I thought.
I quickly sit up and it causes me to get a headrush. I look over at Ashley and she is peacefully sleeping. I kind of feel bad that i have to wake her up. I get up and lightly shake her. "Ashley wake up. We got to get ready for tonight." I say shaking her a little harder.
Ashley opens her eyes and groans. "Okay, I'm up. So stop shaking me," Ashley says.
"We should ask Miles and John to come with us to the mall." I say.
"Why? what's at the mall?"
I smile and Ashley looks at me.
"I just wanted to go on a double date." I say bashfully.
Ashley's eyes lights up with excitement. She clapps her hands together happily. "Well, I guess I'll call John then." Ashley gets up and goes to another room to talk to John on the phone. I go to my room and get dressed. I walk past my prom dress and stop. Maybe i can add something to my dress. I say to myself taking the dress from its hanger. I go back to the living room and see Ashley already dressed and ready to go. "Oh Ashley, while we're out we should go design our prom dresses and add something special to them." I say picking up my purse.
"That is a great idea! My dress is in my car, lets go." Ashley says.
I follow Ashley to her car and we go to the mall. Miles and John is already waiting in the plaza. Ashley excitedly runs over to John and gives him a hug. I shyly walk up to Miles and he smiles. "I heard this double date was your idea." Miles says.
"Whats wrong with that?" I say with an embarrassed frown.
"Nothing at all. I think its a great idea." Miles smiles at me and I shyly smile back. I don't know why I can't act normal around him right now. "So, where do we go first?" John asks.
"Well, Ash and i want to add something special to our prom dresses. So, we want to go to that tailor shop." I say with a smile.
Miles and John look at each other and then looks back at Ashley and me. "It sounds lame but, sure. Its another way to pass the time." John says.
We all go to the tailor shop and Ashley and I start working on our dresses. After an hour, my dress is completely transformed. The dress is now longer and is a light pink color. I added straps to the dress and added more glitter. It looks completely different and i like it. Ashley didn't change much of her dress. She just added some design.
"Wow Athena, the dress looks even more great!" Ashley says excitedly.
"Ok, now where do you boys want to go?" I ask Miles and John.
"Well, it's almost time for prom so, we should probably get ready." Miles says.
"Okay, then we'll see you guys later" Ashley says.
We said bye to John and Miles and left to go back to my place. Dad was back from work when we got back. "Hey, girls. It's almost time for prom." Dad says as Ashley and I go up to my room.
"We'll be ready in an hour." I shouted to Dad.
We lay our dresses on my bed and we dump all my make up out on my desk. Ashley takes her make up out of her purse and dumps it out on My end table. Ashley came over to me and started to do my make up. She took a few minutes and then turned me around to the mirror. My eyeliner was thin but, visible and my eyeshadow was light brown causing my brown eyes to look bigger. Then I help Ashley do her make up. Her eyeshadow was a light orange and she had thick eyeliner. We curled our hair and put our dresses and jewelry on. When we finished getting ready, the doorbell rings. We run halfway down the steps and Dad opens the front door. Miles and John talk to my Dad for a minute and Ashley and I go back up stairs. "Oh my God, I'm so nervous." I say.
"Well, it'll be fine. Just don't think about it." Ashley says putting her hand on my shoulder.
"Girls, you're dates are here." I hear father shout from the bottom of the stairs.
We smile at each other and walk down the steps. Miles smiles and me and I shyly smile back. "Okay Athena, I won't take any embarrassing prom pictures but, bring back some pictures." Dad says giving me hug before I left.
"Okay dad I promise." I say leaving the house. We stepped outside and there was a car that looked brand new in my driveway. "Wow Miles. Where'd you get that car." I ask miles.
"Its my dad's car. He let me use it for prom." He answers. He goes to the passenger side of the car and opened the door for me. I get in the car and Ashley and John are already sitting in the back seat. Miles sits down in front of the wheel. We pulled out of the driveway and we quietly drove to prom. He parked the car and got out to help me out. I took his hand and climbed out of the car. I tripped a little in my heels and I fell into Miles' arms. I blushed and backed away nervously. "Sorry, I'm just a little clumsy." I say fidgeting a little.
"It's okay. Lets go." Miles said leading me into prom. Since the theme of prom is "A spring in Paris", everyone looks like spring.
There is a large Effel Tower on the stage. The decorations we set up the other day looks better in effect. Ashley, John, Miles and I get a table for all of us to sit at. I look around and see a lot of people I know. I saw Veronica and Adam dancing on the dance floor. For some reason, I felt a little hint of jealousy. 'There's nothing to be jealous about. You have Miles.' I thought.
"Want to dance?" Miles asks
"I'm not really a dancing person." I say.
"Come on, just one song."
"Okay, just one song."
We dance together and with friends. I had so much fun that I forgot how many songs played. After a few hours of dancing, the principal comes up to The stage. "Hello everyone, can I have your attention please?" The principal says
Everone on the dance floor stops dancing and looks up to the stage. The music stops and the room is silent. "It's now time to announce the prom king and queen."
