--Flashback--

Prom 2009

"Ella get ready, Jayden's waiting for you" my 6 year old sister Kate said as she peered into my room.

"Okay, tell him I'll be right down" I tell her as I finished the last touches of my makeup. I admired the way the dress perfectly fitted my body, it was just perfect.

"Wow El, you look pretty" she said. I barely even noticed her there, maybe it was probably because I'm always lost in thought. 

"Thanks, I want this night to go perfectly" I gushed. I exit the room to find my boyfriend Jayden.

When I reached the living room, he's there with a bouquet of flower in his hand with a huge grin on his face. I wouldn't even know how we ended up together. He's basically what girls would fall for; nice eyes, strong personality, popular, and an all around genuine guy.

"Hey beautiful, you ready to go?" I smile and nod. He always knows the right things to say, how can you not love him? We approach his red convertible and head to prom.

Everyone's dancing, having fun and drinking. Before I knew it, they were ready to announce King and Queen.

"Okay this is the moment everybody's been waiting for" Principal Paxton said into the microphone as everyone applauded. "Time to crown King and Queen".

"Our king is.. Jake Holden" Jake approaches the stage as the crowd went crazy. "And our Queen is.. Ella King" I can't believe it, I won. I head to the stage while trying not to trip over my own feet.

"Now it's time for the traditional dance of the King and Queen" the principal announced. Me and Jake head to the center of the dance floor while the spotlight shown on us.

After 5 minutes of dancing, I decided to find Jayden. I asked everyone if they've seen him and it wasn't until a girl named Tiffany said she saw him head to his car, that I got suspicious.

I quickly find Jayden's car and when I look inside I see him hovering over Lauren St.Germaine. I ran inside with my makeup running from my face, honestly I'm surprised my heels didn't crack. I can't believe I trusted him, I really am stupid that a perfect night was a possibility for me.

Once inside, I head to the girls bathroom and I'm glad nobody saw me. I ran to the first stall I see and fall to the ground not caring if it was even dirty. I cry my eyes out for about 6 minutes, until I heard a noise outside the stall.

"Hello?" the man asked in a strong accent.

"Come in" I try to say without sobbing but miserably failed. The stall door opened and I meet a pair of green eyes.

"Hey, are you OK?"

"Yeah, I'm fine" I say in a small voice.

"You sure? 'cause if you were fine then you wouldn't be sitting in an unsanitary floor" he tells me. I laughed a bit at his little joke.

"Nope, not really" I admitted. It kinda feels good to let it out, even to a stranger. I eye him as he closes the toilet lid and sits down.

"Okay well, I don't want to make you feel bad all night so you can tell me. Oh and by the way my names Harry, Harry Styles".

"Nice to meet you I'm Ella King" I tell Harry.

"I know who you are already, you're the pretty girl who won prom queen, congrats" he beams at me.

"I'm not that pretty if my boyfriend fucked another girl on prom" I tell him.

"Well he's an idiot for not knowing what a catch you are" he winks at me.

I giggle " Are trying to flirt with the prom queen Harry?" I ask him now with a better mood.

"Maybe, maybe not" he tells me and that's when I forget Jayden cheated on me and just enjoy Harry's company, even if it's in and awkward situation and just laugh it out.
