The Girl With The Blue Eyes

Chapter 31

The suspense is killing me. My mom has been "working" on my dress all week and she wouldn't let me see it. I'm gonna be the one wearing it, shouldn't I see it before the actual date of the dance just in case I don't like it?

I trust my mom. She has her reasons for doing things so I'm not too nervous about it.

My mom finished my hair and my makeup. And still with the hours of getting ready for my date I had yet to see the outfit I was going to wear.

"Are you ready?" She asked.

I nodded my head. I sort of have to be. I thought.

She brought the dress from out of her closet. I don't even recognize the dress she is trying to pass as the dress she bought me at Walmart. Either she bought a new, better dress or she actually fixed up the plain boring dress that we actually bought.

She added another layer to the dress so it looked more glossy and shiny. Then the top of the dress...I have no idea what she did to it. She probably cut up a jacket or some cloth or a shirt, but she added a piece to the top to were it looked more like my style. The piece she added came all the way down my back and just ended at the bottom of my butt.

"Do you like it? I know you didn't have a lot of input on it."

No words mom, no words. I thought.

I hugged her. Tears were threatening to spill from my eyes but I would be damned if I let them ruin my moms job on my face.

"It's okay sweetie. I know how you feel. You don't have to say anything." She hugged me back.

It was almost time for Eli to pick me up so my mom quickly slipped me into my dress and I went downstairs to wait for Eli.

Tristan's POV

"Oh my God! Does this tie make me look fat!" Evan screeched in a high pitched girly voice.

I laughed. "Why are you even coming? You have no connection with this school what's so ever besides the fact that you used to go there."

"Come on! I can't leave my bro hangin'. This dance will probably be more exciting if I'm there anyway. I can dance with the kids, mingle."

"Yeah, cause mingling won't freak them out at all."

"We are not in high school anymore, we know how to hold our own, so you do what you want and I'll do what I want."

"Whatever." I fixed the bow tie that Scarlette gave me and were on our way. Eli left, I'm guessing to pick up Starlette.

The dance doesn't start till another hour, Evan knows this yet he continues to pester me about showing up early.

"The dance is going to be dreadful enough as it is and we have to show up an hour early and stay an hour late, unbelievable."

"You're a chaperone, not a student, so you have to help set up and clean up."

"That sucks."

"Yeah. Being an adult really sucks." I said, more to myself though.

Scar's POV

Ten minutes turned into 30. 30 minutes turned into an hour and an hour turned into two. The dance was halfway over by then. I decided to wait longer and when there was just one hour left of the four hour dance I went to the school.

Eli never responded to my texts. I sent about 50 of them.

Safe to say I'm nervous. I wonder what excuse he's gonna use.

My phone died while I was stuck in the middle of the road.

I forgot.

I thought you were meeting me at the school.

Bullshit bullshit bullshit. I won't believe any of it.

I'm mad. More mad than I have ever been. He fucking stood me up. He lied to me. I get out of my car and march my way towards the cafeteria. I look around the room and spot Tristan and Even standing on the sidelines making sure everything was okay. I walk over to them. As I get closer I noticed Tristan was wearing the tie I got him. I smiled. I'm glad to see he go it, I thought he would wear it during the week but he didn't I guess he was saving it for today.

"Scarlette you look great." Tristan said.

Thanks. Nice tie by the way.

"Thank you, a friend gave it to me." He smiled

I felt giddy when he said friend. At least that's progress.

Hi Evan. I didn't know you were back.

"Yes, back and staying. I'm crashing at Tristan's place till I get my own."

I nodded. Have you guys seen Eli?

"No. When we left he was already gone, we thought he left to get you."

No I've been waiting for him for 3 hours at my house.

"I can't think of any place he would be. Last time I talked to him was when he left. He said he would meet me here. He has to be here somewhere."

"Lets search for him." Evan suggested.

"Good idea. Evan you check the gym and the changing rooms, Scarlette and I will check the football field. If any of us don't find him then we check the classrooms."

"Okay should we say "break" or something and do that thing with our hands..."

"...Just go!"

"Right got it." He took off through one of the exits and we went the opposite direction towards thefootball field.

Two of the field lights were on, but there was no sign of Eli on the actual field. We checked the changing rooms and our last result was to look behind the bleachers.

When we rounded the corner. I heard noises. Someone was definitely here. The bleachers were big and stretched across the whole football field. The noises came from the other side of the bleachers. At first I thought it would just be some rowdy teenagers sneaking off to get high or make out.

But what I saw would leave my heart broken forever.

(First, the dress on the side is the final product of Scar's mom's masterpiece.

second, again with the pic on the side, ignore Avan Gogia in the pic (If you can) He is not in the story. Just Maddie and the dress.
