Fractured Fundamentals

B2S formals and PDA

rivers pov *Monday*

when i woke up i was slightly relieved that mark seen that i was asleep and didn't bother me. i woke up before my alarm clock today which was great. it was 6:48 am. i got up and brushed my teeth and hopped in the shower. i tuned my iPod to play closer by the chainsmokers. 10 minutes later it was 6:58 am. i still had time for breakfast and to pick out a decent outfit. i ran to my closet and picked out my white fall out boy hoodie, my dark blue skinny jeans, and completed the look with my white converse. i made my way down stairs to the kitchen and seen that Mark didn't leave anything out. oh yeah i forgot he was off today and when he's off he's literally off! i guess we could stop at Starbucks Collin. i thought to myself making my way to the downstairs restroom to do my make up. the bruise was fading away quicker than i thought so i just put on a little concealer here and there and finished with my foundation. when i grabbed my keys and headed out the door i seen Collin leaning up against my car with his hands in his pockets. he makes my car look cool. "good morning riv" he said smiling widely at me. "good morning? what genie granted you 6 wishes?" i asked seeming thrown off by his chipper behavior. "no genie granted me anything. i'm just very happy today." he made me uncomfortable with that one. "okay...well were stopping at Starbucks if you don't mind" "Starbucks? i love Starbucks! sounds great lets go" he said overly excited. when i got in and started the car my song immediately came on. i turned up the volume and drove off. when we ordered our drinks and stuff i turned down the music a bit more so i could see what was up with Collin. "dude your creeping me out with this sudden burst of happiness on a Monday morning. what is going on?" i asked smiling at him. "you'll see riv. you'll see." is all he said before i pulled into the school parking lot. when i walked into the school everyone was frantic, running around, decorating stuff, hanging banners and i knew that could only mean one thing...the back to school formal. "oh no." i said walking down the halls over hearing conversations about matching dresses and song request decisions. "oh no? why oh no? what does oh no mean?" Collin asked me nervously. "i hate the back to school formals! i have to dress up in some stupid expensive dress that i'll only wear once, wear really tall shoes, and stress over how no one will ask me. i'm so staying home." i said walking ahead of Collin leaving him in awe. "wait a second you mean to tell me that you hate dressing up and having a good time? who are you? are you even human?" he asked me surprised. "Collin if you wanna go then go but these things just...aren't my thing you know? i went last time and it sucked i made the year book for most likely to wallflower at prom and i was an 11th grader!" "wow. well if that's how you feel..but mainly the whole reason for you not wanting to go is because you think no one would ask you right?" he asked walking behind me. "i didn't say those exact wo--" "right??" "okay yes! that's part of the reason." i said frustrated that he knew. "turn around." Collin said. i froze in my tracks and hesitated turning around. when i did i almost died. when i turned around i seen him in a shirt that said 'will you accompany me to the B2S formal?' i covered my eyes in dis belief. this must have been why he was acting so weird. "well?" he asked. "YES!!" i squealed hugging him really hard. no one has ever done this type of thing for me before. this is crazy, i feel like beyonce when she couldn't hold all them grammys. "i can't believe you!!" i punched him lightly in his chest. "well i think you deserve it." he said hugging me back. "when is the formal this year anyway?" i asked. "this Friday. why?" "oh my god i have to buy a new dress and get my nails done and hair done! this is so stressful i don't know what i'm gonna do i'm head of the decorating committee my peers wont see me too much i have to plan every thing to be perfect. i have to order a limo! oh my god Mark knows a guy! this is very nice yet very stressful i wont be too surprised if i go bald by the end of the da--" i was cut off but Collin kissing me. hold on one second am i dreaming again? no way this is real? after about 10 seconds he let go and i was stuck for a moment. when i opened my eyes i heard people cheering, saying oooh, and get a room. "you just kissed me." i said not knowing what else to do. "yeah, and you kissed me back." he said smiling. we just stared at each other until 1 minute later the bell rings for 1st period. "see you 1st period?" i asked as casually as i could. "yeah." we walked in the same direction to History. when we walked in i sat down in the back as always and he sat down in the center of the class since there was hardly anyone in this period. i was cheesing the entire time. i drew a picture of a flower for some reason. today has already been a great day compared to yesterday. Mrs. Perrington went to the board and started talking about everything boring that has to do with history. i knew i was going to see him all day so someone would have to break the ice sometime. i still can't believe Collin kissed me. what will Terrise and Casey think. speaking of Terrise and Casey... oh crap they aren't here today and since they both are absent on the same day that can only mean one thing. They helped Collin plan all of this! how do i say i hate them but love them at the same time in one word? i lovate them.
