Me: "Wait.. What?"
Justin: "Sorry.."
Me: "You've been talking all about this dance"
Justin gave a sorry looking sorry.
Me: "And now you don't wanna go with me?"
Justin: "Oh, I want to go with you."
I have him a confused look.
Me: "But you just said-"
Justin: "I said no because of the way you asked me"
I got the idea.
Me: "Well how do you expect me to ask you?"
Justin: "I'm sure you'll think of something"
He said coming up giving me and kiss, then smiling walking to his next class.
I stand there in the middle of the hall while kids pass me, and I smile.
But then I get to thinking, how am I gonna ask him..
I start to walk to my next class, trying to think of what to do.
Class went by pretty fast, and then on to the next one, then next one.
The final bell rang, and I start walking out of the classroom.
I pull out my phone texting Justin.
*Just spent my last 3 classes thinking of ideas, and I'm clueless*
Justin: *What you expect me to tell you how to ask me to prom?*
Me: *I mean it wouldn't hurt*
Justin: *Raegan you're smart*
Me: *Not as smart as you :)*
Justin: *You'll think of something, trust me*
Me: *Ugg*
*Well anyways, wanna come over?*
Justin: *I don't think I can..*
Me: *Why not?*
Justin: *Cause you need peace and quiet to think*
As I read the text, I'm almost to my locker when I bump into Justin's friend I saw during lunch.
Me: "Oh hey, sorry"
Jace: "Oh it's okay"
Me: "So you're Justins friend"
Jace: "Yeah.."
Me: "Oh cool"
Jace: "But I mean if you don't want me talking to him, it's okay"
Me: "What are you talking about?"
Jace: "Well Your is boyfriend, and I didn't want to interfere with whatever"
Me: "No, I want him to have other friends, just because we're dating doesn't mean he can't have them"
Jace: "Oh.."
It was at that moment his phone buzzed.
He pulled it out of his pocket, looking at the screen.
Jace: "Oh, well, um, I gatta go.."
Me: "Okay? Bye."
Jace: "Bye.."
He said, his voice fading as he walked away.
That was kind of weird.
But I forget about it and continue to text Justin back.
*Im not good at thinking when I'm alone, I need inspiration*
Justin: *Oh and that inspiration is me?*
Me: *Well yeah*
Justin: *Raegan you'll figure it out*
Me: *Uggg.. please?!*
Justin: *Ill see you tomorrow*
Me: *that's not fair*
Justin: *why not*
Me: *because I should get a say in this relationship*
Justin: "Okay you can not go there*
Me: *but I will*
Justin: *Im not gonna even be home*
Me: *Well where are you*
Justin: *Auditorium, still working on the prom stuff*
Me: *Oh, alone?*
Justin: *No there's Jace, and a couple others*
I stopped for a minute. Mmmm Jace...
Me: *Oh, well can I help?*
Justin: *If you really want*
Me: *Okay, well I'll be there in a bit*
Justin: *Okay :)*
I put my books in my locker, then heading down the hall to the auditorium.
I go through the backdoor which leads right into the stage.
I walk in from the back waking up the stairs, slowly. I can see both Jace and Justin working on one of the paintings, which was on a table.
They're both siting in chairs on the opposite side of each other.
I see Jace players my footsies with Justin, I walk all the way up the stairs. Making the creeks in the steps loud, that way they would know i was there.
I look down at Jaces feet, and he brings them to his own side.
I look back at him, him looking at me.
He had a nervous look on his face, like I know what he was doing.
Justin: "Hey"
Me: "Hey"
I said walking over to Justin, putting my hand on his shoulder.
Justin: "You wanna grab a chair?"
Me: "Oh actually, I'm not gonna stay"
Justin: "Oh..."
Me: "But I just wanted to see you"
Justin gets up from his chair, leaning in to give me a hug.
Justin: "Ok, well just text me later or something then"
Me: "Will do"
I said to him hugging him back.
As I'm hugging I look at Jace.
He glances at me, but then puts his head down, looking at the floor.
We let go of the hug.
Me: "Okay, bye"
I say walking off the stage.
Justin: "Okay, love you"
I turn around.
Me: "Love you too"
I walk down the rest of the stairs about to reach for the door handle when I hear Jace say something.
Jace: "I think I'm gonna get going too"
After that, I just smiled, opening the door walking out, this means I won, right?
I get home putting my backpack on the floor, walking up to my room.
I pass my mom in the kitchen on the way up there.
Mom: "Hey Raegan"
Me: "Oh hey"
Mom: "Slow down"
I stop, walking backwards till I get back to her.
Mom: "What's the rush?"
Me: "I'm not in a rush, I just have things to do"
Mom: "Lots of homework?"
Me: "No actually, I'm trying to figure out a way to ask Justin out to prom"
Mom: "Oh, well try just asking him"
Me: "Yeah I did that, he said no"
Mom: "Wait he already said no?"
Me: "Well he said no to the way I asked him"
Mom: "He wants something more than that"
Me: "Yeah.... so got any ideas?"
Mom: "Yeah, but I'll let's you come up with them"
Me: "Oh come on mom"
She smiled walks pass me, patting me on the back, then walking out of the room.
Me: "Ugg"
I say, then continue to walk up the stairs.
I get to my room, sitting down at my desk.
I open one of my drawers pulling out a pad of paper, along with a pen.
I wrote across the top "Ideas". Then I just sit there, staring at the paper, trying to think of what to do.
My mind drew a complete blank.
"This is great" I think to myself.
I pull out my phone, going to my text messages.
I pull up Justin's name typing -
*babe this is impossible*
I stare at the text for a little bit, and then decide to delete it.
I have to think of something myself, I just don't know what. That's when it struck me, the internet.
