----after school------

I received a note that was put in my locker to go at the back of the building  after 7th hour ends, so I did. I heard footsteps and saw Luke coming towards me with a rose in his hand.

"Hey, ummmm, so I was thinking since since you don't have a prom date yet and I don't either, do you want to maybe go to prom with me?" Handing me the rose as he talked to me about it.

Luke is so sweet and all but I just don't know what to do. I saw James holding flowers, I think he was on his way to ask me for forgiveness and for prom. I don't know whether to go with Luke or not, what should I do.

"I mean, its fine if you don't want to go. I know James would've asked you, but like I thought James would've done it already." Luke said nervously as he rubs the back of his neck.

"No Luke, its not like I don't want to go with you but, I still kinda like James and please understand what I'm going through."

I saw James staring at us. He stopped for a second, the flowers dropped on the floor and he took off I Guess because when I turned back around he wasn't there.

"Yeah its fine. I guess that's a no then."

"I'm sorry Luke. I still have feelings for James."

Luke left with his head tilted down towards the floor and just walking very, very slow. Now I feel bad. I went after James hoping I would still catch up with him.

I saw the flowers on the floor and James right up ahead of me for a couple feet.
"Hey James! Wait..please.."

James was walking very slow with his head facing the ground.

"James! Please!" He stopped and turned his head towards me. He was tearing up.

I ran up to him. "Hey, so umm are you still in for prom?" I tried to cheer him up. I now who I'm going with to prom.

"There's no point. Luke already have you as his date"

"But I said no to him. I wanted to go with you, James. I still love you. I cry myself to sleep thinking that you and I would never be the same anymore. I already forgave for what you've done. Raven explained things to me. James. I missed you. I love you"
We sat there in silence for a few seconds.

"So is that a yes?." He stopped crying and I cheered him up a little.

I nod my head.
He ran up to me and hugged me so tight that I feel so safe now since Im in his arms. "Omg. Demery you know I still love you. I just wanted to give some space for a little bit. And I know what I did was wrong I regretted it. I'm so glad you took me back to your life. I promise I would never break your heart again. I'll always be here for you. I'm sorry I hurt you before."

He kissed me, after a few seconds we broke the kiss and we stood there hugging each other. I think this was one of the best moments I had.
James had his frustration face on. I know what he's thinking, but I'm just glad James and I made up.
"Hey, Its okay,I'm okay now" and there is me again trying to make his frown into a smile.

"But still. I was such an idiot." He was shaking his head.

"What matters is that we are both here today. I love you James" I hugged him so tight that I never wanted to let go.

He hugged me back and a few words came out of his mouth which was "I love you too Demery"
