Valerie's POV

The bright light from the window wakes me up early. I flutter my eyes open only to shut them again to prevent myself from going blind. God, it sure was sunny! Perfect day for shopping. I rolled out of bed, falling to the floor in the process. I sure am clumsy today. I thought to myself. I yawned and jumped into the shower, letting the warm water rejuvenate me.  I turned off the water and stepped out of the shower, a cold gush of wind hitting my bare body. I dried off and wrapped a towel around me. I opened my drawers, picking out some denim shorts and a nice casual, yet pretty t-shirt. I loosely braided my hair to the side and applied my tinted moisturiser and some mascara and lip gloss. I never left without a little make up. I felt ugly without it. I grabbed my phone and purse just as I heard the doorbell ring. I ran downstairs and grabbed an apple before answering the door and walking out with Lauren to the car. I was greeted by some very chirpy girls. "Hey Val." Emily said cheerily. I giggled at her enthusiasm. "Hi em!" I tried to match her tone of voice, failing miserably. Soon we were all laughing. I took a few deep breaths to calm down and began making conversation. 

"So, where are we headed?" I asked. Lauren kept her eyes on the road, tell me that we were going to Knox. I nodded and talked to the other girls. Vanessa was going with Niall. I knew it! She was so excited i had to stifle back a laugh. Lauren was going with Liam, obviously because they were going out. Louis asked Emily and Zayn asked Isha. All of them were so cute together. What I don't understand is why Harry bothered to ask me. I was a no body. I shook out the thoughts from my head and joined into the conversation again. We reached the shopping centre and we jumped out, all excited about prom. We walked into many shops. As we walked into Valley girl, the girls chose a number of dresses to try on. I had my eye on one. It was a creamy white. It had sequins down the front and had a bow that tied up around the back. It was simply beautiful and I knew I had to try it on. 

I ran up to the girls holding the dress. We all entered the dressing rooms and did a little fashion parade. I slid the dress on and adjusted it to look just right. I loved it, but that was just me, so I had to get someone elses opinion. I opened the curtain to reveal all the girls waiting for me. Their jaws dropped as I walked out. Then they began to squeal. "Oh my god! Val you look stunning! Harry is not gonna know what hit him!" Vanessa said. I giggled and blushed. I never got compliments, so it felt good to finally be getting some. The girls tried on all their dresses and we finally came to a decision of which ones they were gonna wear. 

The ride home was pretty quiet, as everyone was tired. I closed my eyes and felt myself drift off. I was woken up by Vanessa, urging me out of the car. "Okay so Val, we're gonna stay at your house tonight right? So we can get ready together for tomorrow?" Lauren asked. I nodded. We walked into my house and packed away our clothing. I put my cream platform heels into my wardrobe and placed my pearl necklace and bangles into my jewelery box. It was like a light bulb turned on in my head, I spun around. "Spa night!" I cheered. The girls joined me in the cheering and we went to make avocado dip and cut up cucumber. We set up all the pillows and nail polish and moisturisers and made my bathroom look like a beauty spa. It was so relaxing. We did each others nails and applied the avocado to each others faces. It was the best girl night ever. We set up the bedding and watched a scary movie. Scream 4 to be precise. It was the most horrid thing ever! I ended up burying my face into a pillow the whole time. I was so relieved when it ended. We tucked into our sleeping bags and went to sleep. I needed to be relaxed for my big night tomorrow. 

Harry's POV

Its been a long day. The boys and I went out to buy tuxes and some corsages. I picked out a really pretty cream one with some pretty flowers on it. I wasn't exactly sure what type they were but they were gorgeous. I put everything away and tucked into bed. 

I tossed and turned as sleep did not prevail. I sat up, and ran a hand through my bed hair. Checking the clock, it read 11:37pm. It was late, but I was so nervous I couldn't sleep. I had butterflies running wild in my stomach and I couldn't get them out. I walked to the kitchen and poured a glass of milk, I heard that it helps you sleep easier. The house was silent, so I was left alone with my thoughts. I tried to picture how beautiful she would look. I could never picture her beauty though. She was just something more beautiful than I could ever imagine. Wait!? Where was all this coming from? These past few days, I had been completely love struck, with the girl I have hated my whole entire life. This wasn't normal for me, but she has changed me, made me a better person. I loved her for that. Loved? That's a strong word, yet I feel I have to use it. She made that emptiness in my heart go away, but I heard she was looking for some Mr. Mysterious she met at Niall's party. I never had a chance with her and I never will. I don't deserve her, yet she said yes to my invitation to prom. I feel so confused. I trudged back upstairs to my room, literally jumping into my bed, it was so warm. I felt my eyes fluttering closed and I was swept into very, very sweet dreams. Milk does help!
