Ella's POV Prom is coming to an end and room king and queen are being announced now. Won't be surprised if it's Lindsey and her boyfriend. "Ok ok. Everyone settle down. Next up is our prom king and queen." Becca, a cheerleader, says into the microphone. Everyone cheers and I roll my eyes. She gets handed two note cards. "Ok. Drumroll please." She says and the music plays a drumroll. "You class of 2017 prom queen is, ELLA LOPEZ!" She yells and I go wide eyed. Everyone cheers and Savannah and the girls jump up and down. Jack smiles brightly. "Recount!" I yell and everyone laughs. "Go Ella!" Savannah yells and I make a face. "Ok Jesus." I say walking to the stage and up the steps. I stand next to Becca and she puts a crown on my head, a sash around me and hands me roses. I make a face a Jack, holding my crown up of course. He laughs. "And now, your prom king issss..." She says and opens the note card. "What a coincidence JACK GILINSKY!" She yells and everyone cheers and he makes a face this time. Savannah shoves him and he laughs and walks to the stage and walks on it. He gets crowned and walks over to me. "This is crazy." He says and I nod laughing. "Do you guys wanna have a dance?" Becca asks and we shake our heads no. Everyone laughs and she smiles "Ok we'll give it up for our king and queen!" Becca says and everyone cheers. Jack helps me off stage and we go to our table. I take my crown off and set it on the table. I grab my phone and take a picture

EllaLopez: ya girl won prom queen 😛 I post it and then turn my home off. I look at jack and he's on his phone. His phone starts to ring and he looks at me. "It's my manager." He says and I nod "You can answer it." I say and he laughs and then gets up. "I'll be right back." He says and I nod and then he walks away. I turn back around and go on my phone. Scrolling through Instagram and twitter until a loud squeaking noise comes from the microphone. Everyone turns and looks at the stage. Lindsey is standing there with an evil grin. "My fellow students and class mates. Tonight has been a super good night wouldn't you agree?" She alas and everyone cheers. "To make it even better. I thought I would let you guys get to know your prom queen better. Ella Lopez, will you come up here please?" Everyone cheers and I stand up and walk to the stage and up on stage. I sit down on the chair that's next to Lindsey. "What are you doing?" I ask Lindsey. "Letting everyone get to know you better. Let's start. So Ella here, she's an all A's student, studying to get into Harvard. Isn't that right Ella?" She asks and I nod cautiously. "But. She won't get into Harvard with her parents help. No no no. Her parents have to raise like what, 4 more kids? So they won't have time to do use on getting you to college will they?" She asks and I look at her "What are you tryin to accomplish here?" I ask "Just wait. Your dad works for my dad. My dad came home one night saying that he felt sorry, he had fried your dad, but you didn't know that right? Cuz you thought your family had everything together." She says and I bite my lip. "Cut it out Lindsey." Savannah says "Oh but I'm only just starting. Ella's parents, aren't her real parents. She was adopted at the age of two." She says. Of course she would know that cuz we were friends in kinder. And I'm sure her snotty mom said something. "Why were you taking from your parents exactly?" She asks and stead falls down my cheek. "Oh that's right. They abused you. Sexually, mentally and physically." She says and I just look at her "Bitch." I say "That's why my friends, Ella Lopez, is still a virgin." She says and everyone laughs. Except for the girls "Too afraid for a guy to touch you Ella?" She asks and that's when I've had enough. I quickly get up and walk down the stairs and to the double doors. Everyone still laughing. As I arrive at the double doors jack is standing there shocked. I make eye contact with him and then walk out. "Ella!" Savannah yells after me but I continue to walk. "I'm going home." I say through the tears. I continue to walk to the front and through the doors. I then walk faster down the side walk out of He school gates and down the street towards my house. "Ella!" She yells again. I continue to walk. Getting odd looks from people passing by in cars. I feel a hand on my arm and I stop and turn around. Savannah is standing there with a sad face. "I don't wanna talk about it to anyone. Not even Jack. Or you. I just wanna go home. Please Vannah." I say and she nods and hands me my crown, phone and clutch. "Be safe please. Text me when you get home." She says and I nod and the continue to walk, turning down the street of my neighborhood. Before I make it to my house, I take my heels off and continue to walk. Walking up the steps of my house, I knock. It's only 10:30 and I'm sure someone is awake. Low and behold, my mom opens the door in her robe "Your home ear- honey what happened?" She asks. None of this is her fault, but, I need to take my anger and sadness out on someone. "You know exactly what happened." I say and then walk beside her inside and up to my room. Kicking my door shut and then plopping down on the bed, crying all my makeup on to my pillow in the process I'm sure.
