Kailee's POV

I wake up with the sun shining through my window. I grab my phone from under my pillow to check the time. It's 8:15. I jump up and grab a pair of blue skinny jeans and a thin hoodie and get dressed. I run downstairs, grab my bag and a muffin, hop in my car and drive the 10 minutes to school. I make it there by 8:30 and when i get out of my car i see someone walking towards me.

"Hey!" He calls. I squint my eyes against the sun and as he gets closer i see it's Alec.

Weird, i think to myself, why is the most popular guy and not to mention, the hottest guy, talking to me?

I look around to see if there's anyone else around but it's just me and him.

"Um, yes?" I ask when he gets closer.

"Umm," he starts awkwardly, "I've seen you around and i think you're beautiful..."

"Uhh thanks i guess," i reply, not sure where this is heading. I've seen him around too, obviously, but i didn't think he'd ever noticed me.

"What's your name?" He asks, his dark brown eyes meeting my green ones.

"Kailee," i answer. "What's yours?" Gosh, I know his name, everyone knows his name.

"I'm Alec," he smiles. How is his smile so perfect. "I was wondering if you'd wanna go to prom with me?" He asks quickly then looks down and looks back up at me, waiting for a response.

I blink a few times. Is this really happening?

"I-I-I um," i stutter awkwardly. What do i say! Isn't he going with Amber??
"I'm actually going with someone else." Why did i say that!

"Oh, uh okay," he says, then slowly starts backing up then turns around and walks towards the building.

"I-I'm sorry!" I call after him. He doesn't turn around.

I sigh then start walking after him into the school. I go to my first class, 15 minutes late. The teacher glares at me, i apologize and head to my seat. All day i can't get Alec's sexy smile off my mind.

Alec's POV

I head to class, confused. Not that i thought she couldn't get another guy, obviously a girl as hot as Kailee could get any guy she wanted, but i guess i just wasn't expecting that. The day goes by in a blur. After school we have football practice and the coach is yelling at me.

"Williams!" I hear but i can't focus on anything. He sends me to the bench and Derrick takes my place. I stay there for the rest of the game. Later in the parking lot I'm about to get in my truck but stop when i hear my buddies.

"Hey man, what's up with you?" Josh asks, slapping my back.

"Nothing," i say but I'm forced to continue when they all keep staring at me. "I asked Kailee to prom and she said no."

"That redhead you were talking about?" Stephen asks and i nod.

"Oh shit, Alec gets turned down!" Nick laughs. I glare at him and he shuts up.

"She said she's already got a date," i continue.

"So are you gonna ask Amber? Hailey said she's waiting for you to ask her," Nick says.

I shrug my shoulders. "I don't know man. But I'm gonna head home, I'll see you guys tomorrow."

"Alright, see ya man," they respond, also heading to their vehicles.

When i get home i head to my room, turn on my xbox and play video games. I can't even concentate on that. I pick up my phone and text Amber.
Hey what's up?
It doesn't take long for her to reply. Not much, just watching a movie, why?
Can i come over? I ask.
Ya of course! She sounds excited, probably knowing why i wanna see her.
I'll be there in 20 minutes. I grab my letterman jacket and put it on over my old grey t-shirt. I let my parents know and tell them I'll be back soon. I hop in my truck and stop by the local flower shop on my way there and buy a red rose. When i get there she opens the front door right away and i hide the flower behind my back as she leads the way to her room. When we get there i pull the rose out from behind me and she jumps up and down and squeals. Good choice i guess.

"Aww Alec! I love it! Thank you so much!" She kisses me on the cheek.

"You're welcome," i say, smiling. "I thought it would go well with the question i wanted to ask you."

She's smiling from ear to ear now. She has a pretty smile but I'd rather have Kailee smile at me like that. I'm not sure if this is a good idea.

Amber interrupts my thoughts. "What did you want to ask me?" She asks with a sparkle in her eye.

Well I'm here now. It's just prom then we can go our seperate ways, and that's okay... right? "I was wondering," i start and i take her hand in mine, "would you like to be my date for prom?"

She squeals and jumps up and down again. "Yes! I thought you'd never ask! OMG i know the perfect outfit for both of us!"

I'm starting to wonder if this was a bad idea but then she grabs my face and kisses my lips. Wow, she has soft lips. I put my hand on her lower back and one on her face and gently kiss her back. I pull away and we both smile.

"Okay i better get going," i say and she giggles. I kiss her forehead and head out the door. Maybe this wasn't such a bad idea, i think to myself as i drive home, thinking about the kiss.
