Payton's POV
I was sitting on a bench, crying. This just isn't my day and nothing could make it better. I just felt like a peace of shit if i can say it like that. There is no one in the world that could make me feel better right now. I saw Tessa coming closer to me. She looked at me shocked. I know, everybody has been giving me these looks today. I accepted Fred's proposal to not be a fool and that's exactly what i am right now.
''Payton, are you okay?'' she sat next to me patting my back.
''No, i'm not okay. Tessa, look at me. This whole day has been a mess. I just want to go home.'' I started crying dessperately. I didn't know what else to do.
''Can you tell me what happened?'' she asked looking at me while i was staring at the ground.
''Well first you didn't show up to go to school. Second, as you maybe heard, Fred asked me to prom and suprisingly i sad yes. The bad thing is that he announced to everybody in the whole school that we're going together. Everyone laughed at me. And third, when i was going to the toilet, i tripped on a bucket of water and i fell. The water ended up on me.'' I was still crying my heart out.
''Aw my poor baby. Just be like me. I look at everything as a joke.'' she smiled.
''Yeah right? Remember that time you cried when you were overwhelmed with homework and competitions.'' I looked at her.
''That wasn't true. I was just having a bad hair day.'' We laughed at the same time. It looks like there is only one person that can make me feel better. She hugged me and then we had to go to class, bummer. It wasn't as bad as i tought. I mean, everyone was laughing but it was still good. With the fact that i almost died tripping on that bucket of icy cold water, it's still good.
One week later
I was getting ready to go to prom. Finally, the night i've been dreaming of my whole life. It's gonna be ruined but i wanna make the best of it. Since i was a little girl, i dreamed of being the prom queen and my prince charming being the king. I smiled at that tought. I guess Ian is getting ready for prom too, he's a senior too, just like me. I put my golden dress and i was shocked. Too bad i have to spend the night hanging out with Fred. I wanted to cry at that tought so bad. I did my make up and it was a little more than i usually wear. I had red lipstick on my lips and my eyelashes were huge. My hair was straight and my tips blonde. I did it over the weekend.
Finally i was ready. I went downstairs and my mom wanted to take a picture of me. I haven't told her about Fred and how i don't like him. She wanted to know who was i with and she's not gonna be that happy couse Fred was kinda like the ugliest guy at school. Pimples, nerd glasses and a horribly shaped body. Mom was taking pictures of me and that was really annoying. My dad started crying couse he didn't want to let his little girl grow up. Oh please, kill me now! I was standing there not in the mood, and i put a poker face on. I looked emotionless and i didn't care. I just wanted this night to be over. There is nothing that can happen that would make me feel better. I always say that, i know, but this time i mean it.
Suddenly i heard a knock knock. Oh no. It's Fred. I covered my face with my hands. My mom now thinks I'm gonna go out with a hunk but it's a nerd. I wanted to stop the time. To go somewhere far away from here and just be happy. My mom was super excited while opening the door. She had a big smile on her face and once she opened the door, the smile disappeared. She turned around looking at me while i was faking a smile. It wasn't in my intention to tell her anything about him.
''Hello there. You must be Payton't sister.'' Wow dude. You had to say that? I know that he didn't mean it and that he was trying to make my mother blush but still, not cool man.
