b/f/n and i decided to go shopping for prom dresses. i was 100% sure that Timothée was gonna ask me out to prom so I was ready to go all out. prom is what every teenager is the most excited about in high school... well next to graduation. it feels so long since the first day of senior year and meeting Timothée at the bridge. b/f/n was there for me for it all. she was so excited that I was going to Columbia with Timothée and that we'd be happy together. she got into UCLA ((or whatever college you want)) and she said we'd keep in touch no matter what. we walk around the store and look at dresses. she sends me to the dressing room and comes back with a large pile of dresses. i look at them in wonder. they're all so beautiful.. how can i choose?? i start going through them and find the few i like the most.
(dresses)

((you can pick your fave out of the few i picked up or you can just use your imagination lol))

i try on the light pink dress that goes up to my knees ((my personal fave)) and twirl myself in the mirror. i pick up the gloves that come with it and look at myself in the mirror. i smile and i imagine myself with my hair done and makeup on, dressed to impress. i take it off and try on the other few, the pink one being my favorite. i pay for the dress and gloves and walk out of the store. suddenly my phone rings. it's Timothée. i pick up smiling.
"hi, baby! what's up?" i say, happily. he chuckles.
"haha nothing much just checking in. what have you been doing?" he asks.
"oh nothing just shopping with b/f/n. you?" i reply. he pauses thinking.
"oh cool! not much just been watching TV and chilling. wanna hang out later?" he asks. i laugh.
"sure! wanna meet at the diner at 7?" i suggest.
"of course! see you there!" he says. i smile.
"bye! love you!" i say and hang up the phone.

(suits)

i stand patiently as the nice man tailors my suit for prom. i wonder what y/n's gonna think when she sees me in this. i think i look really good. my newly cut dark brown hair framing my face, brushes my forehead. i smile at myself.
"do you like it?" the man asks. i nod. knowing that it's in my price range, i know i can buy it. y/n's gonna love it. after the man is done fixing me up, i grab the newly tailored suit and pay for it. i step out of the shop and walk towards the café, i grab a cup of tea (that's the tea sis lmao sorry) and drink it slowly as to not burn my tongue. just a few hours until i see y/n. i wonder what she bought.

setting: the diner

oldies music played softly over the speakers and i sip from my milkshake as Timothée walks up to me, his dark green t-shirt and jeans bringing out the hazel in his eyes. i almost forget how much i love him until i look at him. he smiles his signature smile and i blush. he never fails to take my breath away.
"hi" he says. i bite my lip and take another sip of my milkshake.
"hello" i reply. the awkward silence is growing.
"uh how are you?" he says trying to make small talk.
"okay i guess. how was your day?" i ask. he shrugs his shoulder.
"not bad. you?"
"same here."
minutes pass and Timothée orders his food and i order mine. we sit and chat about ordinary things. college plans, prom, life, our families. usual stuff. finally Timothée changes the subject.
"so... do you think our relationship would work out in college?" he asks. the question catches me off guard. i think about it for a second.
"only if we don't cheat on each other and keep each other happy" i say as honestly as i can manage. he nods his head in agreement.
"yeah i guess that makes sense. i was just asking cause i figured there would be guys that are way hotter than me and nicer than me and... i don't know.. i was scared you would leave me for them... but i know you wouldn't do that.. right?" he says, avoiding eye contact. it amazes me how he can go from being so chill to so nervous in such a short amount of time. i sigh and take his hand. he looks at me.
"no.. Timmy don't think that. i won't leave you for another guy no matter how hot or nice they are to me because i'll always love you and always be there for you.. even if things do go South" i say. he nods.
"sorry for asking.. it was a dumb question" he says nervously.
"no! no it wasn't stupid. i was thinking the same things. i'm glad you asked so we could clear it up" i say. he smiles and kisses my cheek.
*time skip: 2 hours*
i'm standing outside my car door waiting for the moment to get in but Timothée's in my way. he pushes me up gently against the car, his fingers playing with mine. my heart races. i love it when he does things like this to me. he plants soft kisses on my cheek, jawline, and neck. he whispers softly "i love you." my knees tremble and i become breathless. i move my head down to face him, the humid air causing dots of sweat to line his forehead. his mouth curves up to form a beautiful smile. he places his forehead on mine and i stare into his gorgeous eyes. we stand like that for a moment. i peck his lips.
"i have to go home" i whisper so as not to break the silent aura we have. he nods and kisses me on the cheek.
"bye, babe" he says. i give him a wave as i climb into my car, thinking of what's to come.
