[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?
