"You will have one week to complete a 6 paragraph essay on the importance of the United States military. I will need your thesis by tomorrow and your introduction by Thursday. I will expect all of you to hand in a polished version but Friday. Good luck. You may use the computer room, the library or the private laptops in the back of the room."

Don't get me wrong. I love Mrs.Johnson, but sometimes she goes overboard on the assignments. One time she gave us a book and 3 sheets of paper. She told us to read the book and hand in a book report by Friday. She handed out the assignment on Tuesday! I was up all night every single night working on it.

RING!!!!!!!! Ah, there's the bell. As I'm walking to Algebra 2, I hear loud unrecognizable steps. Stephanie takings tiny steps, clicking her pumps every step. Katrina flips and flops with her sandals. She always wears the cutest studded sandals I have ever seen. Jason, well, you can hear his work boots a mile away. He has worked on a farm for the past 3 years. Ugh. I would die. and you can rarely hear Jake with his sneakers. They are black with yellow pin stripes, they are quite the pair of shoes. But, this was a............ mix of all of them. It sounded like the pursuer  was trying to throw me off.

I whipped around quickly to find Griffin standing to close for my comfort.

"Hey babe, you going to Prom?" He smelled of Axe. Drop dead gorgeous. But I had to stick to my plan.

"Yes, I am. Why do you ask?"

"Because I wanna know what time to pick you up." He let out a little smirk. Like I was going to give in that easy.

"If that is your way of asking me to Prom the answer is no"

"Why did someone already steal you up." He said sarcastically. As if I can't get a date. JERK.

"Yes, as a matter of fact I did."

"Oh, yeah with who?"

"Jake."

He smiled and I heard him mumble to himself, "I'm hotter".

"You may be hotter, but Jake is hot and he is not a jerk."

"Oh so you admit it. Your attracted to me."

"That's not what I meant! Uhh.. um .Got to go."

How dare he? He is the most conceded person I have ever met and I have to live with Sarah and Mabel.

PROM

Jake looks as scrumptious as ever as he opens his car door for me. Did I mention, he has a red Ferrari. He smells of Axe like Griffin did yesterday. But, Jake smells better. Jake lacks the smell of jackass. His car drives so smoothly.

"You look gorgeous. That dress is stunning!"

I start to blush.

"Thank you. And I love your tux. You would think that I picked it out for you. It matches my dress perfectly."

"Well I heard you talking about your dress and I figured we should look good as one."

"Oh, that's so thoughtful."

He had a button down aqua shirt with a black vest over it. On some guys it would look gay, but the way it look on Jake, well it was phenomenal!

We arrive at the school and I imediately spot Katrina. I run up to her quickly, I must comment on her dress.

" You look gorgeous! I love this texture. Who's your date"

"You'll meet him soon. Who's yours."

"Jake. He's parking the car right now."

"Ooh. He's cute. My date is parking his car too."

I truely loved her dress. I wonder who her date is though because she never told me. I mean I never did ask though. Oops, the back of my pump got caught on my heel. I quickly bend over to fix it.

"Hey. I parked the car. Let's go in."

"Sure I just have to meet Isabella's date." Katrina said

Oh no. It can't be.

"Isabella, I didn't even recognize you. You look great."

Of course, Prince Charming himself. Griffin Armstrong. How did he charm his way around Katrina. She was usually as careful as I was. Oh he is good.

"Katrina, a word."

"Sure."

"What are you doing here with him? You know what type of guy he is!!!! Are you insane?"

"I know but he asked me last minute and I didn't have another date."

"Hey. It took me forever to park the car. Let's go in." Jake came back. He acctually looks cuter than Griffin.

Ahhh here we go. Brace yourself. This is going to be intense!
