The Bet

Part 25

Part 25: Zara's POV

"Time to announce king and queen of class 2020!" The principal happily says.

Everyone gather around the stage as I sit back and watch.

"King goes to......... CORBYN BESSON" The principal yells over the microphone as jack looks furious. Wait if he won... that probably meant ally stuff my name with his..... oh no. Corbyn goes up on stage and has a crown placed on his head.

"Queen Goes to......... Zara Bianchi" slightly saying my last name wrong. Everyone gasps as I walk onto stage and have a tiara placed on my head. I dont look at Corbyn. Ashley shrieks.

"NO NO! THIS IS ALL WRONG! IM SUPPOSED TO WIN NOT HER! IM SUPPOSED TO BE UP THERE WITH JACK!" Ashley yells. Everyone cringes at her high pitched voice.

"Well too bad and shut up will ya." I yell at ashley she looks furiously at me. And before she can respond the principal starts talking.

"Now everyone clear the floor let the king and queen have their dance." Everyone moves as Corbyn grabs my hand and leads me to the floor. I look him in the eyes. And feel alot of emotions run through me and we get close and I put my hands around his neck as he puts his around my waist.

"I'm surprised you actually did this" he whispers. I dont respond. "Theres something I need to tell you." He says I still dont answer and just stare at him and dance. "I think.... i think i love you" when he says that i gasp and take my hands off his neck and run out of the place which held prom. When I get outside its pouring down rain. I take off my heals throwing them to the side and start running as I hear Corbyn behind me I start to cry
Corbyn catches up to me and holds me in front of him facing him.

"What is wrong?" He asks.

"What is wrong? Really you have the nerve to ask me that? EVERYTHING IS WRONG CORBYN! Your just saying I love you because you want to fully complete the bet. You've slept with me unlike jack. Your still trying to use me when the bet is over and I'm not even popular anymore." I say trying to get out of his grip.

"You really think that of me? Well your wrong. I stop thinking about the bet when I came over. That one time to watch after you. I realized how I couldnt break you over some stupid bet. And then we slept together. You were amazing. I realized I loved you too late. You got with jack. And I became mad at you. And then you found out about the bet before I could tell you anything you shut me out. And now I wholeheartedly love you. Whether you believe me or not. I love you." He says looking down at me. I stare at him. Letting his words sink in. Hes telling the truth. I realized I loved him. I really did more than anyone else.

I lean up and kiss him. He kisses me back.

***
*3rd point of view*

The perfect moment in the rain kissing with your true love after your bumpy dramatic filled ride. They went on to graduate. Corbyn went into the music industry as Zara became a model and a photographer. Ally was still in Zara's life and supported her and Corbyn. They all got a happy ending. Other than Jack and Ashley. But let's not ruin the happy ending by bringing them into this.

*19 years later Zara's POV*

"Mom" I heard my 17 year old daughter charlotte cry out as she got home I go to her to see tears running down her face. I hug her.

"What's wrong sweetie?" I ask.

"He-he used me... I was just a bet.... it-the bet was to make me lose my virginity. He-he did it. After eight months. I shouldnt have trusted the bad boy." She sobbed into my shoulder I laughed at the irony of this.

"Hunny eight months is a long time. You had to grow on him some how. Dont give up baby. Go show him who's boss. Make him regret that he thought you were only a bet. Maybe he will realized you were more. Stupid boys always make mistakes." I say smiling at her rubbing her tears away.

"HEY! I CAN HEAR YA KNOW! I'VE APOLOGIZED A MILLION TIMES!" I laugh as I hear Corbyn yell from the kitchen. THE END
