I was so excited. I remember everything from that night.
Steph and I had been picked up from school on Friday.
"Chloe! I know your sister turns everyone on..." we had the radio turned up!
I pulled my dress out of my bag to show Steph.
"Oh my God! Mel! It's soo pretty!" I couldn't stop smiling. I had the perfect dress. It was white and strapless, with lots of glitter.
"Yours is too." I had already seen Steph's dress the last time I slept over. It was the most gorgeous butterfly dress I had ever seen.
We spent the rest of the car ride gossiping about Alex and Courtney. AKA: cheating boyfriend and boyfriend stealer. And somehow we ended up talking about Lindsey, creep across the street.
"This is gonna be flawless!" Steph was getting way too excited.
"I know right! Smexy Lexi!!" Clearly I was too. So I bothered the cat for a few minutes before we went to get some soup.
"Wanna play the SIMS?"
"Sure."
Finally, it was six o'clock. We went upstairs to get dressed.
"Oh my God! You're actually, like, my size!" Since I was wearing heels, I looked much taller.
It didn't take long to put on our hair and body glitter. The make-up was the hard part.
"Steph!" Her mom was calling. "Come on, we gotta get Mel to school early!"
"Coming!" Steph went to get our phones.
"STEPH!"
"COMING!" Clearly Steph's mom was getting impatient. So we had to hurry.
So many thoughts were going through my head. What if Luke didn't show up? Do I look okay? Can Steph tell that I'm nervous?
We arrived at school.
"I'll be back at eleven!" Steph's mom pulled away leaving us on the sidewalk. For some reason, she had decided to drop us off in the athletic loop, so we had some walking to do.
"Oh my God. I can't believe it's the Homecoming dance!" Steph was losing her mind.
"I know right!" On the outside, I was excited, but on the inside, I was still a little nervous.
Soon enough, we found Zach and Mr. Chambers arranging some tables, and Lindsey was carrying in beautiful vases of flowers. She was followed by Bri, who was carrying the tiaras. (Plus Timmy was following).
"You guys look nice." Zach complimented us.
"Thanks!" We said in unison and laughed.
Tonight was going to be perfect...
It was finally eight o'clock. Zach and I were beginning to sell tickets and Steph...well, she was just there.
We were talking and laughing, having a good time. I looked down to put someone's ticket money in the bin when I heard my name.
I looked up and saw Luke, standing next to Christian. He was so handsome in his shirt and tie, Christian too.
I practically jumped over the table to hug him! I didn't wanna let go. The feeling I get when his arms are around me is indescribable.
But anyways.
Christian brought Steph over to the dance floor.
"Sorry, but I'm working until 8:30..." I was sort of upset because I wanted to spend time with him.
