Running nightmare

ch 4- homecoming dress

Jack opened the door for me to get in. More to keep me from running away. Not like I would get far with one leg and he is in shape. I turn to try and go but there's a hard wall it was jack. So I get in the car dreading to get to the mall. I never have liked shopping and only having one leg isn't a confidence booster

"You ready to go?" He said with a grin. ''I don't have much of a choice do I?'' I say crossing my arms.

''Well where not leaving until you smile. Even if I have to tickle it out of you.'' he says putting his hands up like he's going to tickle me.

''you wouldn't dare." I say glaring at him "would you?" I say trying to cover myself up from being tickled. He brakes through my efforts and begins to tickle me I try my hardest not to smile and let him win. It was just to much I burst out laughing not able to control myself. He doesn't stop like I thought he would he just smiles and tickles me more.

"I-I can't- breath- stop.'' I say in between laughs. He stops and just smiles at me while I try and keep from smiling. "Ok you won now lets go to the mall and get this over with.'' He smiles even more knowing he won. he roared the engine to life pulling out of the driveway.

We got to the mall and he helps me out of the car. when we got in I fell over whelmed. I look over to Jack ''so where should we go to find me a dress?'' I asked truly not knowing.

"I asked some of the cross country girls where they got there dresses at and they told me to go to the boutique in the mall and get one there. I don't know where that is but we can find it." he said happily

We found the boutique when we went in and I felt out of place. I look over to Jack ''Why does it matter if I wear a dress to homecoming? It's just a football game."

He looked at me and said "Because it's

your junior year. plus it's homecoming and your going so what size do you wear. I sigh and answer him. "I wear a size zero do you want me to look or do you want to?" he looked at me like I was crazy for thinking he would let me choose what dresses I try on. "I'll get one of the ladies to help me look for a dress you just try them on."

He looks through dozens of dresses he finally came back to me with three dresses. The first one he handed me was a long pink dress it was strapless with a sweetheart neckline. I tried it on but I could barley hold the dress up. The second one came down mid shin. it was black the chest and short sleeves where covered in netting. I could already tell it was going to be a long day. The third dress was a deep blue that complemented my skin tone. That was all it complemented it hung off me like a sack.

"Jack are you trying to make me look like a blue wale?" I said coming out of the dressing room for the third time. "this shopping thing is a lot harder than I thought. They look good on the rack then look bad on." he confessed trying not to laugh at the dress. "then try getting some dresses that don't look good on the racks they might look good on."

He comes back with a mint colored long one shoulder dress. It has diamonds on the shoulder and along the waist. When I tried it on it complemented every part of my body I wanted it to. it hugged my slim waist and showed off my curves I didn't even know where there. At the same time it covered my leg and prosthetic. When I walked out of the dressing room Jack looked toward me and his jaw dropped. "You look amazing! Maybe to good. I think you will have guys falling at your feet." he said wide eyed looking over my body. " Can you tell I have my prosthetic on?" I asked looking down afraid the answer would be yes. "No Sam you look beautiful. Now lets get you out of that dress and pay for it." (Picture of Sam's dress on the side)

I walk into the dressing room with a smile on my face going to take off the dress. I couldn't reach the zipper so there was only one solution. " Jack can you come in here I have a problem." I say

"Are you dressed? If you are that would be a disappointment." he said I could tell he had a smirk on his face " Wipe that smirk off your face and get in here." He walks in with what I knew was on his face a smirk. "Unzip the dress for me I cant reach it." I said pulling my hair off my back so he could unzip my dress. "I always knew you wanted me to undress you." he said softly laughing "Shut up and unzip it" I feel his hands on my back witch sends shivers down it. "Your hands are freezing." I say pulling my back away from his hands. He keeps me there by holding onto the back of the dress. He finishes unzipping it and I turn to face him. He smirks "Do you want me to help you with the rest of the dress? I don't mind If you do." He says looking at me I saw a hint of lust in his eyes so I turned him around and begin pushing him out the door. "No I don't need your help so get out."

I change and we pay for my dress. We wen to the food court I got chinese and he got taco bell. We sat down and began to eat. "So Sam has anyone asked you to the homecoming game?" he asked shoving a taco into his mouth. I said "No and I doubt anyone is going to its the third week of school and only one more till homecoming." No guy at my school besides Jack and the xc team even looked at me. They all tried to ignore me it was because of my leg they where trying to avoid awkward conversation. I had no hope in getting a date.. or so I thought
