Chapter 1- Prom Sucks

Johnny's POV

Prom. That's the only thing I've heard about this week. I'm a senior so it's my last prom. My friends Hayden, Carson, and I always used to skip it and stay home and play video games. But now they both got girlfriends so they are making me go. Selfish brats.

And get this, Hayden is dating my sister Lauren. He totally broke the bro code. And Carson is dating Annie Leblanc, my best friend. So basically my friends are traitors and don't care about me. Sorry for being over dramatic, but basically my life is over.

Senior year is supposed to be the year you figure out everything and get a significant other. Yeah so that hasn't happened to me yet. Don't get me wrong I'm a total heartthrob, believe me. But there's only one girl I'm interested in, but she already has a boyfriend. So that's awesome right?!? I get it, I'm sad. But I've gotten over I promise. It only really sucks when I see them flirt. Also when they kiss in the hallways. Oh and when they talk too. But I swear I'm over it.

Anyways as I was saying, Carson and Hayden are forcing me to go to Prom. I don't think they understand I don't want to watch my soulmate dancing too close to a guy who is not me. But I'm still going because I should apparently "be social" or something.

Annie and Lauren are making Carson and Hayden go dress shopping with them, so obviously I tagged along because they're my squad. I would honestly do anything for those four. We've all been friends since our daycare days. We used to have a 6th member, but we don't speak of them. They ditched us for their boyfriend. We are definitely not salty. I bet you can guess who, hint hint my soulmate from earlier.

Let me give you some advice, dress shopping can be fun, if you go with the right people. Ill tell you that Hayden, Carson, and I did not choose those right people. Annie and Lauren have tried on, just a guesstimate here, 1000 dresses, each. We have been sitting on a bench outside the dressing rooms for 2 hours. I've never been so disengaged in my life. But then I saw something that made the situation 10x worse.

The one and only, my soulmate, Mackenzie Ziegler trying on prom dresses for Brandon Rowland. Now you may be thinking, why do I hate this Brandon. Well, not only did he steal the love of my life, he told the whole school about Lauren's crush on Hayden. Luckily he reciprocated these feelings, but if he didn't it would have ruined everything. Kenzie used to hate him too, but then he flirted with her with his stupid charm that the girls love for some reason.

It's not like girls didn't ask me to prom, I just didn't feel right going with someone I didn't care about. I may be a heartthrob, but I don't mess with other people's emotions. *cough Kenzie cough* I really did think that she liked me you know. Like in 8th grade, we were at a party and we were playing 7 minutes in heaven. Kenzie and I were in the closet and I'm 95 percent sure I was her first kiss. But you really can't tell with that one.

Whenever Lauren and her would have sleepovers and she couldn't sleep. We'd stay up all night talking and eating pretzels in my room. But now we are seniors and she barely even talks to me anymore. Last thing she said to me was, "Hey Johnny, I like your new jacket." News flash, I got it two months ago.

Annie and Lauren finally picked their dresses, Annie with a red sleeveless one, and Lauren with a blue two piece. When we were leaving, not to sound like a peeping tom or anything, but I looked over to where Kenzie was trying on dresses. She looked absolutely gorgeous. I wish I could tell her. I mean I could but I don't want to die curtsy of Brandon. So I gave her one last look and exited the store.

"Dude, I think Kenzie might have to go to the hospital." Carson said.

"Wait why? What happened?" I asked.

"You were burning holes through her." I shoved Carson.
