My eyes bursted open and I saw the familiar face of a dark haired, mysterious, girl friend stealer.
Jasmine Doudy.
"W-what are you doing?"
I pushed her away and she fell to the ground.
"If your going to steal my girlfriend at least don't go behind her back and kiss people behind their backs like that."
She sighed.
"Rose dumped me."
I was stunned.
"But she dumped me for you......"
"She's moving."
I stared at Jasmine deeply and she got closer touching her knees to mine.
"Jasmine..... Why are you...."
She leaned in and kissed me again.
"It's not right to kiss someone without their permission."
"Rose did it to you."
"She had my permission."
"Janitor's closet?"
"How do you know all this?"
"You used to be my Rose,
Without the mutual part."
I stepped back shocked.
"Can't Jasmine."
I awkwardly backed away.
She slid down her back down the brick wall.
James waved to me from his bus and did the 'call me' sign.
I winked at him and got on my bus.
We texted until we got off the bus.

James: Bloom...

Bloom: Yes...?

James: Will you be my date to the 8th grade semi formal?

Bloom: I would love to ;D

Finally I made it home to find Rose standing outside my door.
"I know Jasmine told you everything......"
I nodded.
"I'm sorry."
"It's cool I get it."
We both hugged.
"Hey bloom?"
"Yesss?"
"Could we maybe just kiss one more time?"
I laughed and pressed her lips up against mine.
It was a short passionate kiss nothing big, no sparks, just a friendly goodbye.
She waved goodbye.
"I hope I can see you again someday."
I nodded.
She added one last sentence that I'd never forget.
"I'm sending you my wedding invitation,
And I expect you their."
She waved off again and I went back inside.
James was texting me frantically.

James: So Bloom what colors are you wearing I wanted to match....

James: Do you want me to pick you up?

James: Where should we meet?

James: Are you nervous?

I laughed and texted back.

Bloom: Don't be so nervous everything will be perfectly fine.

James: I'll try :/

Bloom: I have to go do some math homework sorry.
I'll text you later,
Boyfriend ;)

James: ..........

I wasn't actually doing math homework.
I needed time to figure out what to wear I mean after all it was tomorrow night.
The theme was 'midnight'.
I assumed they didn't want to do a horror theme considering it was so close to Halloween.
I called my mom and she said she would take me out to shop when she got home from work.
I sat and watched some TV until I heard the front door open and I hopped in the car with my mom.
We got to the mall and went into Macy's just because,
It's Macy's.
We went into the dress section and I tried on a few different dresses.
One was a dark blue glittery waterfall dress.
Another was dark purple with a mesh neck piece and mesh bottom
The last one was a long beaded tank top dress with a long flowy skirt.
I ended up choosing the blue one because it brought out my Hazel eyes and I already had cute blue sandals that would go perfectly.
I threw the Macy's bag on my beanbag and patted Gizmo on the head and texted James.

Bloom: my dress is dark blue <3

He quickly texted back.

James: I'll see you tomorrow byeeeee ;)

My life was finally taking a turn for the better,
And nothing at this point could bring me down.
I sighed, put down my phone,
Turned out the lights,
And closed my eyes leaving the world far behind.
