She's Not Afraid

CHAPTER FIFTY-FOUR: MAGIC

"I can explain?" I only said this because I believe that someone has to say it...

"What? Liam tripped, fell and landed on your boobs?" Harry said sarcastically.

"What?!" I exclaimed.

Then I followed where his gaze was strongly fixated... Liam had both of his hands on my rack!

How come I just noticed this VERY important detail right now?!

"Liam, get off of me!" I tried to remain calm but I lost it.

"Whoops, my bad. I swear, it was an accident!" The guy finally got off of me.

"Blame it on Sharon!" I looked at my dog on the floor. I got her as a present on set my 'Want You Back' US version music video a few years ago.

"Real mature, Cher." Zayn shook his head disapprovingly.

Sharon just barked at me and then scurried out of the room.

"Your dog's pissed at you for shouting at it. She also said that Liam is a clutz and an idiot for not noticing her on the floor..." Louis translated what my fat dog has to say for herself.

I bet he just made it up though.

"You speak dog now?" I asked sarcastically.

"Darling, it's like you're asking me a question if my eyes are blue-gray or not which they are... of course I speak dog! Took some summer classes on the beautiful language." He said proudly as if it's the most natural thing in the world.

All of us just gaped at Louis like he grew another head or something.

"There's this prom thing that's going down tonight at a nearby high school... want to come with me?" Tristan walked me to my locker the next morning.

"You want to crash a high school prom? What for?" I raised my brow.

"Just for the heck of it. C'mon, it's going to be fun, I promise. Just like the old times, eh?" He smirked.

"Okay, fine but do I have to wear a gown or something?" I asked.

"Yeah, totally. We need to blend in with the crowd in order not to get thrown out." He smiled deviously.

"I heard that you're going to attend a prom tonight so I brought myself as your escort slash your date." Harry showed up at my door that night, wearing a tuxedo which suits him alright.

"Pfft. No, I'm not. Where'd you hear that?" I quickly denied.

How'd he find out so fast?! This was supposed to be a secret...

"I have my sources... but why are you wearing a stunning red ball gown if you're not going out tonight?" He eyed me from head to toe.

Oh. I forgot that I was already dressed for the event... what's the point of denying it in the first place?!

"Because... Uh, this is what I usually wear as a night gown." I doubt that he'll buy what I just said though.

"Cher, you're looking very stunning! C'mon, let's go! I'll give you a ride since I AM your date afterall." Zayn appeared out of the blue.

The guy even gave me a quick peck on the cheek.

"Huh?" Why is everybody suddenly claiming to be my date?!

"No, you're not." I said.

"Dude, get in line. I was here first." Harry looked annoyed.

"I'm not going out with any of you because I'm still waiting for my REAL date to arrive." I stated.
