"So what exactly happened?" Eben asked me as we sat down on his bed.

"Ok, so it all started when I had to drive Zach to his friend's house. When we arrived I realized that I had to pee badly..."

~Time skip to after Zoey finishes explaining because I'm lazy~

"Well, now I need to come up with a good idea on how to ask Jonah to prom!" Eben spoke excitedly.

"You've gotta be kidding me, there's no way you're planning on going to that shit."

"What's so bad about prom?" Eben asked innocently.

"Oh I don't know, a monarchy based off of popularity, wearing fancy clothes, having to bring a date, the fact that it's in a smelly old gym?"

"Girl, lighten up! You are not going to ruin my prom dreams!"

"Whatever," I sighed.

"But, can you please help me come up with a good way to ask Jonah to prom?" Eben begged me.

"I don't know, just buy a bouquet and go up to him and be like 'Hey, Jonah, wanna be gay with me at prom?'," I spoke unamused.

"That is a terrible idea!" Eben spoke sounding offended by my answer.

"Look, I really don't care ab-" I was cut off by my phone ringing. "I'm gonna take this," I spoke as I stepped out into the hall to answer the call.

"What do you want Zach?" I asked annoyed.

"Please don't tell Eben what you heard! Jonah doesn't want anyone to know!" Zach asked worriedly.

"Little late for that now," I spoke hanging up before he could say anything else. I walked back into Eben's room and flopped face down onto his bed.

"Who was it?" Eben asked.

"Zach, he was asking me not to tell you what I heard, but I told him it was too late for that."

"Oh, now help me plan!" Eben spoke pointing at a notebook he had grabbed that he had already started scribbling on.

For the next thirty minutes or so Eben and I were brainstorming ideas for how he could ask Jonah to prom. We had come up with a couple of ideas but none of them were good enough according to Eben.

As I looked down at my watch I noticed that it was time for me to go. "Hey, Eben. I should go before my mom calls the police and reports me missing." Eben simply nodded in response as I stood up and walked out the door.

After saying a quick goodbye to Eben's mom I rushed outside to my car and hopped in. I quickly started the car and drove away singing along to the radio.


I got home quickly and unlocked the front door to my house using my house key. I walked inside to see my mom using the landline (I know, we old) to call someone.


"Hey, Mom!" I called out as I threw my bag next to the door and kicked off my shoes.


"Oh, sweetie!" My mother rushed over and pulled me into a hug as she pressed the hang-up button on the landline. "I was just about to call the cops and report you missing!" And you thought I was joking...
