Pretend [1] (Stiles Stilinksi)

Tori

The next day, we went to the mall as promised to shop for our formal dresses. We were riding up the escalator and I couldn't help but notice how Allison looked upset.

"What's wrong?" I asked her as we slowly rode up.

"Nothing's wrong- I just have a lot on my mind" she sighed. I didn't believe that one bit but I let it go for her sake.

"You could smile at least. Ever heard the saying 'never frown, someone could be falling in love with your smile'?" Lydia asked her raising an eyebrow.

"Yeah, smile Allison. I'm buying you a dress"I reminded her, I told her I would buy it to make it up to her with the whole thing with Scott.

"Have to admit as far as apologies go, that's more than I expected." She admitted.

"Excellent" I cheered as we walked off the escalator.

"But not as much as I'm going to ask" she smirked looking at Lydia who grinned as well. What?

"What? What's that supposed to mean?" I asked looking between the two.

"Means your going to cancel on whatever dumb, roided up jock you said yes to and go with somebody else." She told me smiling proudly.

"Who?" I asked confused. Please not Greenburg.

"Your going to make up with Stiles and go with him. He's over there." Lydia said pointing to the spastic boy who had just sprayed perfume in his eyes and mouth. I giggled as he choked. He noticed us and waved awkwardly leaning against the counter.

"But guys-"

"No. You guys need to make up. Maybe something came up, I know I told you not to forgive him but Allison came up with a good point as to why you have to." Lydia cut me off.

"And what is that?" I asked turning to Allison.

"You guys are goals" she shrugged making me blush. They pushed me forward and I scoffed and finally started walking to him.

"Look I'm so-" I held my hand up gesturing him to stop. He immediately stopped talking.

"Do you have a date to the formal?" I asked.

"No why?"

"You do now" I told him grabbing his arm and dragging him back to the dress section.

"Wait your not mad" he asked slightly confused and slightly in awe.

"Nope, not anymore" I told him smiling. "Now, your going to help me pick out a dress, got it? And you better not lie. If I look gross tell me. I need to look my best understood?" I informed him.

"Got it but you look beautiful in everything."

"Thank you" I turned to the dress rack so he wouldn't see me blush. I picked up like 4 of some random dresses that had nice colors and gestured Stiles to hold his arms out. He did and I laid them on top sending him a smile. The next rack I picked up like 3 more. Then 4 again.

"Oh- ok are you like gonna try all these on? Right now? Is this a 24 hour Macy's?" He asked following me to the dressing room. I giggled and took the dresses from his grasp.

"Im not showing you the dress I get. You'll have to wait and see. So you can go but thanks for helping me. What time will you pick me up?" I asked him.

"7?" He said rubbing the back of his neck nervously.

"7 is good" I told him. I then bit my lip deciding on what to do. I settled with setting the dresses down for a second and throwing my arms around him. He wrapped his around mine and hugged me tight. "Bye Stiles" I murmured into his ear, my lips grazing them before I pulled back grabbing the dresses and walking into the dressing room with a smirk on my face.

Lydia ended up meeting me in the dressing room holding about 20 dresses. Allison followed closely after holding way less. She told us her car was being towed so she quickly had to go handle that before she picked out the dresses.

In the end Lydia got a light pink dress with a black sash around the waist. Allison got a light pink dress that was strapless and tight until it reached her knees and loosened up slightly. My dress was a bluish turquoise color that had a puffy skirt and tight bodice that was covered in silver jewels (Picture). We bought shoes to go with them and accessories. I honestly didn't need much since my dress was so accessorized. I just got silver pumps and a headband with jewels on it that wraps around your head.

When we got back I took a pic of the headband and shoes sending that to Stiles saying 'sneakpeak'. He then proceeded to reply with 'pleaseeeeee show meeeeee🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻'. I left him on that and shut my off smiling, formal this year is going to be great.

~~~~~~~~~~~

The night if the formal came by fast. It was 6:54 and I was a nervous wreck. What if Stiles though I looked bad? Did I look bad? What if I spill the punch on this beautiful dress? All these thoughts ran through my head.

"Relax, you look stunning." Lydia told me as she sprayed her last curl. She ended up doing my hair and I did hers. She curled mine and put it half up half down and tied the diamond headband around it. I did the same for Lydia except I pinned hers up more and she put on a black feathery headband.

At 6:59 the door bell rang. I felt my heart stop beating. Lydia laughed as I heard my mother open the door. "Dave you look great" she said greeting Lydia's date. I relaxed. Until: "Stiles! You look handsome as well"

"You look like your gonna piss yourself. Calm down" Lydia chuckled. I actually laughed slightly at that. We heard footsteps and our mother came into view and her jaw dropped.

"Well I know one thing, those two boys are the luckiest guys out there if they get to take you beauties to the dance" she said.

"Aw thanks mommy" I cooed hugging her. She laughed as Lydia hugged her as well.

"Now, let's go!" Lydia clapped. We all went downstairs. As we approached the bottom I could feel my heart race even more. Once Stiles saw me his jaw dropped and he stood there frozen.

"Stiles?" I asked nervous. "Do I look ok?"

"Ok? Your kidding right? You- you look- so beaut- so gorgeous- so hot- I mean beautiful and gorgeous. Yeah. Y-you l-look-" he stuttered out just messing up his sentence completely. I giggled and reached up tightening his tie.

"You look very handsome" I told him gripping his suit jacket. He gulped and smiled nervously. "Why are you so nervous around me?" I asked curious.

"Did you look in the mirror yet? Or ever?" He asked sarcastically. I laughed and he joined me.

"Pictures!" My mom cheered making me and Lydia beg her not to. "Yes now pose" she ordered.

We had to do the signature poses and then some group pics. By the time we finished me and Lydia were flushed with embarrassment. Stiles and Dave just shrugged it off.

Stiles, of course, rushed to open my door for me and helped me inside. I thanked him as soon as he got into the passenger side.

"I can't believe that my date is Victoria Martin. This stuff usually only happens in my dreams and honestly, you look even more beautiful now then in my dreams. I didn't think it was possible for you to get more beautiful but you proved me wrong." Stiles told me in admiration and awe. My cheeks flamed up.

"Thank you. No ones ever talked to me the way you do." I told him truthfully. He blushed as well and nodded. This was defiantly going to be a night to remember.
