*It feels so surreal that we're already at CHAPTER 57*

I've been dreaming with Prom since I was just 13 years old. Dani and I would lie in our backs on the ground, planning the perfect night. It feels so weird that Prom is actually a week away. It feels weird that this baby is not that far away from seeing the light. It feels so weird that I don't have a date anymore for the big night.

I was about to call Dani to let her know that I will skip Prom and just watch Netflix all night. But I could just imagine her head exploding with the simple thought of not assisting to basically one f the best nights in the life of a teenager—I literally imagine her head exploding, dear God, I was scared now.

But she would understand, right?

No, of course she wouldn't. . .

She would flip out. Is not only a reality, is a fact.

But the bare thought of going after everything that happened, makes me dread even more. I don't want to be reminded by the constant fact that Nash isn't coming with me. Or to see the people that laughed at me about this baby. I don't want to see anybody. Just my bed, my pillow, and my laptop.

I heard my phone buzzing. I grabbed it and slide my thumb across the screen to answer who was calling. Which talking of which, it was Dani.

"Hey!" she said excitedly. If only O could feel that way.

"Hi"

"Oh-oh, I know that hi, you're sad" she concluded.

"How is it possible that you believe that I am sad after listening to me say hi?" I asked.

"A best friend knows how her best friend feels like with just listening o her words or facial expressions"

"I am fine"

No, I'm not. These second thoughts about Prom are eating me alive.

"G. You don't sound too good. Are you sure you're okay?" her voice changed in a drastic way, from playful to concerned. I paused for a moment and bite my lower lip.

"I just don't feel like I can assist Prom" I said. She stayed in complete silence for what seemed like forever. I could picture her frowning and debating in her  mind whether I am joking or not.

"What?" she asked in a low voice. "What did you say?"

Here it comes.

"After everything that has happened, I just can't bare the fact that everyone will just judge me. Worse, I don't have a date. I just don't want to have the constant reminder that you know who, betrayed me and used to be my date"

She let go a heavy sigh, "Gwen, I understand. . .Believe me that I do. But we've talked about this. Are you seriously going to let a sucker-for-fame and talentless little Vine star ruin what is supposed to be the best night of your life?"

"I know, is just. . .I don't want to face anybody right now"

"Gwen"

"Dani" I mimicked her voice.

"You know that I only want the best for you" she said.

"I know you do. Which is one of the reasons that makes you a great best friend. But, this is already hard for me"

"Gwen, I know. But I can't let you miss the best night of your life for a guy that could go to hell"
