High School Sweethearts [Discontinued]

Winter Dance Preparations

Last part was mid- November and Gavin broke Connor's nose. It takes about 3-6 weeks for a broken nose to fully heal. That means he'll have to go to the Winter Dance with a cast still on his nose. You'll also all get to meet a certain someone too. Enjoy!

Connor's P.O.V.

"C'mon cheer up! We're going shopping for the winter dance today," Kara said. I pulled my blue sheets over my head. My nose hasn't fully healed so I still need the cast. The dance is on Friday and I'll be the only person with a cast on. Konstantina will defiantely make an article about it. She'll probably put a picture of me in whatever I decide to wear on my locker too. I felt tears start to form in my eyes. I sniffled as a few of them fell.

Kara then sat on my bed and put her hand on my head. "You don't have to go if you don't want to. I won't force you," she said. She got up and I heard the door shut behind me. My phone buzzed and I looked at it. Conan wanted to facetime. I sat up, turned off my phone camera then answered. His face popped up on the screen with a smile but it quickly faded. 

Con: Hey Connor. Why can't I see you?

C: I don't want you to see me.

Con: You're still wearing the cast aren't you?

C: Yes.

Con: C'mon Connor. You'll look fine with or without it. You shouldn't care about what other people think of you. Turn on your phone camera please.

I sighed and turned on the camera. Conan smiled.

Con: Was that so hard?

C: No but... I can't go to the dance looking like this. People already make fun of me because of Konstantina's articles.

Con: Wait! Konstantina is still writing articles about students?

C: Yeah why?

Con: She used to write about me, Kara and Markus. 

C: So this is a usual thing for her?

Con: In simple words, she's a bitch. 

C: I still don't want to go. 

Con: You have to go for Hank. He'll finally be able to spend the dance with someone he loves.

C: You know what? You're right! I'm going to the dance!!!

Kara and Markus burst through my door and said, "Yes!" I looked at them then back to Conan.

Con: See you soon. Bye! 

He ended the facetime. I looked at Kara and said, "Did you guys ask Conan to talk to me about going to the dance?" "No, but he clearly convinced you on his own," Markus replied. I pocketed my phone and gave both of them a playful punch on the arm. "Are we going or not?" I asked. They both laughed lightly and we left to get our outfits.

"How about this one?" Kara asked. She twirled and showed us a pink ball gown.
