James POV
" Tash, will you be my prom date...?" I tried saying it in the most romantic way possible as I stared at my reflection in the mirror.
"......I'd love to have you walking next to me looking so beautiful in a dress of yours."
" No, I can't say that I'm going to sound so stupid. Ugh... I suck at this" I said around the fiftieth time since I've been here trying to find the best way to say this without sounding stupid.
" Could you like help me out here, instead of sitting down clued to your phone?" I stared at Markie, who's supposed to be my friend of advice at the moment when it comes to situations like this.
" Hey, bear in mind that we're both in the same boat here, I don't have shit up my sleeves right now, I'm not even close to what am going to even say to Ren." I stopped to think at what he just said. He's pretty much right but man I could use some help right now. Everything just seems stupid at the moment.
Hell, why didn't I think before I acted on this, I like this girl way too, but at least I know it's worth it, I need to make her happy, I want to make her happy, after all that have happened and she have been through, it would be a joy for me to put a smile on her face, even if that's the last thing I do on this earth.
And with that thought, I remembered having that journal she dropped in the hallway, the day she seems to be in such a hurry, I pretty much doubt she knew who she bumped into that day.
I sighed heavily, while slapping Markie on the back, grabbing my things and headed out the house, with Markie trailing behind, constantly asking what the slap was for, but I resulted to not answer him. He'll eventually get tired of asking and stop.
I didn't quite know what plan I had in mind now, hell I don't even know what am going to even do when the materials and stuffs gets here. Damn I'm fucked.
Tash POV
"So, what exactly are we planning on doing now." Ren asked for what seems like the tenth time since we've signed out the cafeteria and talked to Principal Standford.
Our chores of punishment have finally ended like thirty minutes ago and exam were finally out of the way, so for now it seems like some freedom until graduation and unfortunately no prom. I sighed at that thought that ran sadly through my mind, knowing that Ren heard my current stated, I decided to stop her from asking ' What's wrong?'
" Come to think of it, I'm not sure. I know I do owe Aunt Terry a long overdue talk/apology and I still haven't study that valedictorian speech as yet." I finish, trying to see if I have a photographic memory to remember what I saw on that paper about three days ago.
"Well, what I had in mind, was we could spend the time we have left...... "
And she paused for a minute, looking out in front of her, causing me to do that same, to see if I could spot what she's either looking at or looking for.
" TOGETHER!" She blurted out, almost giving me an instant heart attack. And as much as how I was a bit upset at the fact that I got so jumpy, I couldn't even stay upset when I heard that laughter of her voice and the smile that played on her lips afterwards.
With all that I just knew she was already excited about her little idea, despite the fact that she doesn't even know whether or not am going to say 'yes', (as if I can tell her a no).
" Seeing that we only got like a few days before graduation, I was thinking we could spend the weekends and whatever days we have left, until graduation." She added sounding more clam and casual this time around.
" Well, I always wanted to spend time with her" I thoughted to myself and with that, suddenly an idea pops up, an awesome one to be exact.
" Sure, why not, your welcome anytime now seeing that Aunt Terry likes you so much, which is quite interesting, yet still good so......." and before I could've gotten the "Yes" out my mouth she interrupted.
" I was more thinking of my place, so you can finally get to meet my parents...." she said while doing that jump and clap your hands thing that young girls do when they're excited about something. I pretty much zoned out a bit when I heard her made that talk. Is she sure though?
.... And you don't have to worry about what Aunt Terry is going to say because I already told her, and she said yes." she finished.
" Really....Uh.... ok" I answered, (I was excited trust me).
She eyed me up and down, searching my face as if looking for some sort of mix emotions playing on there, yet waiting to see if that's my final answer.
To be honest, I didn't know what to say next and I don't even know why I am making such a big deal out of this like am meeting the president mother or something, like it's just Ren.
Letting out a sigh, I finally decided to speak up some more. " Sure, girls' night, it'll be fun, I can't wait" I finished off with a smile.
By the way who knows what enjoyment and laughter this meet with bring. I mean what could possibly go wrong.
" Great, so I'll see you tomorrow, and remember, get up early, we have packing to do" Ren basically half screamed after she gave me a hug and head down the street.
I smiled back not really recalling if I had hugged her back in returned.
" Yeah" I tried shouting back but she was long gone, so I turned facing my front door, that leads to the inside of where most of my new life started. "Damn Aunt Terry, I do owe you an explanation."
I sighed as I made my way towards the front porch, hearing the tapping of my shoes on the stoned pavement. Turning the lock and about to head in, a sudden thought flashed in mind.
" Will her parents like me though?"
