[The Morning of Prom]

I was lying on the bed,

Flipping through magazines,

My headphones on,

Crash Your Party by Karmin playing.

I was trying to kill time

And also trying to keep my mind off the fact that I

Don’t

Have

A

Date

To

Prom.

Well, at least Adriane and Caine promised to spend some time with me during prom.

I sighed and hummed along to the catchy tune.

My stomach growled.

I hopped off my bed,

Took off my earphones,

and walked to the kitchen,

Grabbing some milk from the fridge and cornflakes from the cupboard.

The house was quiet as I set a bowl of cornflakes in front of me.

My parents had headed out for work 2 hours ago

So I was home alone.

I sat in silence for a while,

Concentrating on chewing and swallowing the cornflakes.

Suddenly, the doorbell rang,

Causing me to jump and choke on milk.

I cursed under my breath and headed for the door.

Who in the world would be ringing my doorbell today?
