the story of how my life became awesome (18/?)

Chapter eighteen. 

The next morning I woke up and got ready for school. Arriving there I got attacked hugged by Lauren. ‘What’s with you?’ I say as I see her smile brightly. ‘Joe asked me for prom this morning’ ‘Awh that’s amazing’ I say smiling and give her a hug. ‘I know I’m so excited’ she says smiling. ‘What are you going to wear?’ ‘I don’t know but I’ve got you to help me right?’ she asks nervous. ‘Of course I will help not that I’m that good at picking dresses but I will do my best’ I say smiling. ‘I can’t wait I’m so excited’ ‘Yeah I noticed that’ I say laughing. ‘But I got to go to class now I just wanted to tell you!’ ‘Okay bye Lo’ ‘Bye see you at lunch’ she says as she walks around the corner.

The day passed quickly I talked with Lauren about prom during lunch break and we talked about what she was going to wear. After lunch break I had only one more class and before I knew the bell rang and I was free.  I went to my locker to be greeted by Darren. ‘Hey lovely’ I smile ‘Hey handsome’ I pause for a moment ‘What are you still doing here? You were free an hour ago’ ‘I know but I wanted to wait for you’ I walk to him and kiss him on the mouth. ‘Where’s that for?’ he asks smiling. ‘Because I love you’ I say as I intertwine my finger with his and sigh happily. I get my jacket and we walk outside hand slowly swinging between us. ‘I love you’ he says as he kisses my cheek. ‘I love you too’ we hug and give a goodbye kiss. ‘see you ton-tomorrow’ he says. I raise an eyebrow ‘sorry?’ ‘I said I see you tomorrow’ he says a little nervous. ‘Okay baby see you then’ one last hug and we both go home. ‘Bye beautiful’ he yells to me. ‘Bye handsome’ I yell back.

I arrive home and get changed to go to my ballet class. ‘Bye mom’ I say giving her a goodbye kiss. ‘Will you be home for dinner?’ ‘Yes practise is only an hour’ ‘Okay bye sweetie have fun’ ‘thanks mum’ I walk out of the door and get my bike. I put my iPod on and cycle to the ballet school softly humming with the music. ‘Hey’ I say as I arrive and walk into the changing room. When everyone was ready we started practise. ‘Okay please remember the new part until the next lesson’ the teacher says. Everyone nods and some say ‘okay’. I cycle -home and take a shower.

 I dry myself and put on a sweatpants and Darren’s sweater smelling his scent. I put my hair in a messy bun and go downstairs to have some tea. ‘Hey’ my mom says. ‘Hey, where’s dad?’ ‘Work’ she says. ‘And Emily?’ ‘she’s at Nina’s’ ‘oh’ ‘Do you want to watch a movie together?’ ‘Sounds good to me’ I say smiling and curl up on the couch under a blanket while my mom starts the movie.

 I yawn as the film ends. ‘I’m going upstairs’ I say to my mom. ‘Okay sweetie, night’ ‘love you mom’ ‘Love you too’ I go upstairs and sit down at my desk with my laptop when I hear a ticking noise. You know that noise when a bird ticks against the window with its beak. I walk to the window and open the curtains. My eyes widen. Darren is standing in the front yard with of course a guitar. When I am a little out of ‘shock’ I see there are tea lights that read ‘prom?’ I sigh happily at the sight and Darren starts playing. (Listen to the song please). He stops singing and I run downstairs almost falling in my hurry. I open the front door and run towards Darren who opened his arms a lifts me of the ground. Tear stream down my face. ‘What’s wrong baby?’ he asks concerned as he wipes away the tears. ‘I’m just really happy’ I say smiling trough my tears. He sighs relieved. ‘So?..’ he swallows. ‘You want to?’ ‘oh god sorry but yes, ja, kyllä, oui, sí’ I say smiling. He pulls me in a kiss lips touching softly, tongues dancing around each other as he bites my lower lip.  ‘I love you’ I mumble into his mouth. ‘Love you too’ I pull away for breathe and see him doing the same. ‘Do you want to come inside?’ ‘No sorry baby I should go, I’ve got some homework to catch up with.’ ‘Oh’ I say a little disappointed. ‘Hey’ he says as he sees the sad look in my eyes. ‘I see you tomorrow okay we can go to the park after school or something if you want to?’ ‘I’d love to’ I say smiling. He sighs ‘I’m sorry I’ve got to go now but I’ll make it p with you tomorrow I promise’ he opens his arms and I walk into them. He wraps the around me and I rest my head on his shoulder. He kisses the top of my head and then whispers in my ear ‘I see you tomorrow lovely and don’t forget that I love you’ ‘How can I forget that’ I whisper back smiling. ‘Bye sweetie’ he says as he lets go of me. He gets on his bike and waves one last time before turning around the corner as I blow a hand kiss and he pretends to catch it.

I sit down on the bed with my phone in my hand dialling Lauren’s number. ‘Lauren’ ‘hey Lo it’s me’ ‘Hey Bo’ ‘Darren asked me to prom’ ‘Really?! Ah I’m so happy for you guys’ ‘Thanks’ ‘We’ll talk about it tomorrow okay? And we should go looking for dresses!’ I smile at her excitement. ‘Yeah we should’ ‘Okay we’ll talk about it tomorrow then’ ‘okay see you tomorrow’ ‘see you then’ and we both hang up. I put my phone away and turn of the lamp on my nightstands and curl up under the covers.
