Saving Shay

21.

"Are you going to prom?" Logan asked as he jumps on my bed. I shrugged sitting on the chair beside my desk.

"Probably not." I answered and he looked up bewildered.

"Why?" He asked curiously and I rolled my eyes spinning around in my chair.

"Because I don't see the point of it." I replied.

"What? I thought it was every girls dream to go to prom!" He exclaimed and I laughed.

"Well that's a lie." I said and he shook his head turning on his back.

"I think you should go." He said after a while.

"Hmm." I responded.

"I mean we're in senior year! It's our last year in high school." He said and I shrugged.

"I don't have a date." I said lamely and he shrugged.

"So? I don't either." He said and I raised my eyebrow.

"I thought you've already asked someone." I said and he shook his head smiling goofily at me.

"Nah, I wanted to go with you." He said and I laughed throwing my head back. I smiled a little staring at the ceiling, I'm hoping my tan hides my blush.

"Aww are you blushing?" He said and I looked at him rolling my eyes.

"No." I lied snorting. He rolled his eyes at me but he let it go. We stayed in a comfortable silence for a while until Logan decided to speak up again.

"So......" He said nervously. I laughed at his weird behavior before looking over at him.

"What?" I asked and he got off the bed walking over to me. I grew wary as he came closer and he took my hand yanking me off the chair and on my feet. I tried not to stumble as I stood up and looked up at him questioningly. I had to crane my neck to look up to him since he was over 6ft tall.

"So do you want to go to prom with me?" He asked and I looked at his eyes. I smiled inwardly as I see how nervous he is just by looking at him.

I hesitated as I thought of my answer. I mean we're just friends right? Friends go to prom together. Besides who else would ask you out? No one. As might as well take up this then spending the night all alone.

"Shay?" I heard a voice say nervously.

"Huh?" I asked confusingly and Logan smiled down. He stared at me and I stared at him back before he grew nervous. I looked at him questioningly before remembering what I was going to say.

"Oh yeah! Sure I guess I can go with you!" I exclaimed.

He beamed so brightly that even I couldn't resist not smiling back at him. He hugged me tightly before lifting me up and off the ground, spinning me around. I laughed at his enthusiasm hugging him back as well. He set me back on the ground and I unwrapped my arm from him.

He stared at me with a goofy smile on his face and I couldn't stop my thoughts on how he looks so cute right now.

"You're so cute." I blurt out and he blushes.

"Aww, you're blushing!" I cooed pinching his cheeks, he slapped my hands away muttering something. I laughed as he stomped out of my room.

He's still blushing.

School started for me and I feel like shit because of all the nasty germs I'm getting from unsanitary little bastards. Hope your school is sanitary than mine. For the sake of your health.
