Alyssa POV

I had just finished dance practice and walked over to my locker to grab the homework I needed for tonight.  Chris was supposed to give me a ride but I couldn't find him anywhere.

I finally said fuck it and just started walking outside the building myself. Suddenly, I see Chris with Lucas and Mike chatting it up on his car with Run It blasting though the speakers Chris had some broad sitting on his lap. I don't have time for this.

Let me catch y'all up: Chris got an opportunity to record a couple songs that made it on the radio. Run It, Gimme That, and now he's working on another called Poppin'.  I went with him a couple times to the studio and he even let me dance in both videos.  Good thing I'm getting my name out there, but Chris and I still had a few months left of school. Since everyone knew who he was by now, a lot of girls tried getting in his pants and to be honest, Chris has been letting them. Our bedroom windows are directly next to each other's so I can hear the moans coming from his room a lot. Disgusting.    A lot of boys have been hauling themselves at me too, but I'm just not interested.  Chris complains I never let loose cause I'm still a virgin but that doesn't mean I have to be a hoe. It's just not me. But he's on his way to a record deal and I'm on my way to be a choreographer so who cares?

A lot of people saw Chris as this famous person in school. But he was just plain ole Chris to me.

"Chris, what the hell." I complained.

"I was waiting on you. Let's go." he motioned me to the car.  He dabbed Lucas and Mike, then Mike hugged me bye. 

Lucas hugged me then whispered in my ear "Be careful. The hoe a little rude. Don't start a fight, bestie."

I giggled and hugged Lucas back, then proceeded to the car. The broad gave Chris a quick peck on the lips and rolled her eyes at me. I was about to cut up then I remembered what Lucas told me.

"Damn, Chris. Your dick is gonna fall off. You got a new chick every week." I rolled my eyes, as we got into the car and proceeded to pull off.

"Why you so worried?" he kept his eyes focused on the road.

"I'm really not. But you obviously about to have a record deal. You don't need a baby too."

"I use condoms, Lyss. Stay off my dick." he punched my shoulder.

"Trust me. I wouldn't go near that thing." I laughed holding my hands up.  Chris and I finally pulled up to our houses.

"See ya, punk." he joked and walked to the house.  Immediately when I walked in, my sister ran over to me all excited.

"Lyss, I got the job!" I immediately hugged her to congratulate her.

"That's great!  What part of the hospital are you working in?" I asked.

"Right now, just a desk secretary but I still sit in on surgeries and stuff." she smiled.

"Yay! I'm so happy for you, Ryan. It's been your dream since you were like 8 years old. And now you got an internship job to get you there after your sophomore year of college!"

I hugged her one last time then walked up to my room. My mom came in and sat on my bed.

"Who you going to prom with?" she asked.

Fuck! I forgot about prom.

"I'm not even going." I responded.

"Oh, yes you are." my mom challenged.  "Figure it out." she got up and walked out.  I threw a punch at the wall in frustration. She's so superficial! Who gives a fuck about prom when I got my whole life to dress up for awards shows and shit??

Lucas was taking his girlfriend and Mike was taking the cheerleading captain. Chris wasn't even an option.  I guess I'll just wait to see who asks me.
