Chapter 17

(Day 7)

Andrew's POV

I did what mom told me. Go home. Today... Announcement of officers, best costume, and my surprise for Lena. Lena has to win president because her dad will be angry at her... And me.

I picked up my costume and borrowed Ben's face paint. Yeah... I'm going to be a tiger... With a cat nose. And with whiskers. Not even sure with my cat ears anymore... I'm gonna be laughed at.

(7:00 PM)

Walked inside the gym. Very awkward... Lena is still not here. Girls will always be fashionably late. I saw Jason with my other friends. They are also wearing a silly costume. Like bears, pirates and stuff. I walked towards them and said, "hey, bros."

"Dude, have you seen Candy?" Jason asked. "No, why?"

Jason sighed. "She's supposed to be here now."

I smiled. "Lena too but girls are always fashionably late."

Then some girls started dancing on the floor then Candy came. Then all the other girls came except for Lena. I texted her.

"Where r u?" I texted. I waited for an answer when someone poked my shoulder. "I'm right here."

I turned around and it was Lena. She poked my nose and pushed her lips onto mine. I pushed harder and she took off my cat ears.

"Your looking adorable tonight. So, since today's the day, what's the surprise?" She asked.

"I got you a gift." I said. I handed her a redbox. When she opened it, she took the bracelet out and wore it.

"Forever in Love... Aw... Thanks buddy!" She said and hugged me.

"But that's not it, yet." I said. She lets go of me and then stares at me. "What is it then?"

"You ll find out later..." I said.

Lena's POV.

I opened the red box and it was a bracelet that said; Forever in Love. How sweet of Andrew... I hugged him and said, "Forever in Love... Aw... Thanks buddy!" Then hugged him.

While hugging him, he said, "but that's not it' yet."

I let go of him and stared at him. "What is it then?"

"You'll find out later..." He said. I stare at him and all the other girls and boys are on the floor dancing.

"Shall I take this dance, m'lady?" He asks politely.

I giggle and he smiles. "Of course, my tiger." I joke. He laughs and kisses my forehead. He pulled me onto the dance floor and we danced.

My costume, a witch, my belt was falling off but it's only in one side. "You look beautiful."

I giggle and say, "you look cute." He laughs and we push our foreheads together. Someone changes the musis. And the music was Mean by Taylor Swift. And it turns out that Maya Pearce, my arch enemy since grade one, changed the music and dedicated it to me. She started the fight when we were in grade three. She accused me of stealing her coloring pencils and so I got in trouble but it's a good thing that my dad there was the president of the homeroom officers. My dad, of course, believed me and got Maya in trouble. The next day, she pulled my hair, throwing trash at me and spread rumors about me. False rumors. And those rumors were; "Lena cussed in front of me when we were grade one!" With a laugh. God, I hate Maya.

"Maya? Why'd she dedicate this song to you?" Andrew asked.

I glared at Maya who is laughing like an idiot and glanced at Andrew. "She's just jealous that I got a boyfriend already and she doesn't."
