Being An Octuplet

Prom (Last chapter)

The past few weeks has been a very confusing time for me honestly, ive been looking after ross ever since the game, we lost without the required amount of players needed and everythings been downhill ever since.

i havent talked to kesian in a while either, ive been avoiding him, in school and everywhere else, i just dont know what to say to him, the last time we met i looked like i was still in love with ross and to be honest, i dont even know if i am.

prom is coming up soon but im not exactly in the mood for it, my mind wanders as i stare out the window during history class

''Miss McAllen'' he calls, my head snaps to face him 

''huh?'' 

''I get my class is boring but couldnt you at least pretend to be interested?''

i mumble a sorry

''Are you good?'' Aiden asks me

i turn to face him 

''yeah everything's good'' i give him a small smile

he doesnt seem convinced but doesnt comment on it

five minutes to the end of the class and my head starts aching, it starts with just a little ache but quickly escalates into a full on migraine with pounding and all that

''payson!'' i whip my head to the side to see aiden looking at me

'' class is over'' he says

lunch is next but i dont go to the cafeteria, i head outside for some fresh air. I havent been eating much these days anyway, sometimes i just like to admire nature and experience it, it makes me forget about the rest of the world's problems

and no one loves a good sunset more than i do, when i was a kid, i'd bring a chair and sit outside watching the sun set and i wouldnt leave till it was completely dark

but as a grown up now, i have more things to do, i can never just chill and look at the stars anymore, its kinda sad

payson whats wrong with you, you came here to avoid sad things

''hey'' a voice calls

i almost dont want to answer, like why do people keep  telling me hey today, i clearly dont want to converse with them

i turn to see kesian and i can feel my eyes light up

''hey, how've you been'' i ask casually, while avoiding his eyes

''its been a while hasnt it'' he smiles at me

dang those eyes, and that smile and his handsome face in general

''it has hasnt it?'' he nods 

"So prom is up soon, wanna go with me? "

Hold up

What?!

We haven't talked for weeks and he asks me to prom?

I'm utterly baffled

"What?" Is all I manage to get out

He pulls me into a hug and like a reflex I melt into his arms.  The reason why I like-loved him in the first place is all coming back

I knew,  I knew he didn't need an explanation, he was fine with me alone and so was I

......

"Ahhhhh HELP MEEE!! "

I yell at my half traumatized friends as I stare into nothingness on prom night

Might I repeat, PROM NIGHT

prom is literally in two hours and I don't have a dress,  yes I am currently breaking down

I took a shower and put on my makeup only to remember I didn't get a dress

Well in my defense I didn't even plan on going

"look I'm not the overly girly type that freaks out on prom day,  but I do not have a dress"

"we know,  we're trying"

I sigh

Oh Payson,  you're really stupid aren't you

Your mother is a fashion designer

"Right! " I exclaim as I dash out of the room at 2x speed to my mother's workshop

I really should've just joined the track team instead of cheer leading

"Mom! Do you perhaps have a dress you keep for emergencies when your idiotic daughter forgets to buy a dress for prom? "

"that's awfully specific,  and no I must say"

My shoulders slumped in disappointment

"I do have something"

She heads over to her old cupboard in the corner and pulls out a bag

"Now this was the dress I wore to my final year prom,  the one your father took me to"

"I don't know mom,  it's a dress from the nineties,  isn't that weird"

"have you forgotten who your mama is? "

She pulls out the dress and it's absolutely gorgeous, it's a peach colored dress with spaghetti straps for hands and jewels all over,  it's was breathtaking

"Dress from the what? "

I grab it from her hands,  mumble a quick thanks and rush back to my room to try it on

Thank God my mother put me on that diet last week or I wouldn't have been able to fit in this dress

It hugged all my non existent curves perfectly and made me look good

...

So you probably thought this would be like those romantic wattpad books were the guy would pull up to her house in a limo and watch her walk down the stairs?

Ha

You should know by now that if my life is anything, glamorous is not part of it

We agreed to meet up at the venue thirty minutes before prom actually started to take some cute photos

During the ride I was in fact a nervous wreck and the only thing that calmed me down was listening to Jon Bellion

(yes I just advertised my favorite artist ever, bite me)

Kesian looked awesome,  not as good as me but good enough to stand beside me

He had a tight white long sleeve on with sleek black pants,  his hair was slicked back yet looked so effortlessly perfect

His tie leaned to the right a bit too much and I guess the part of me that has severe OCD could not stand that

So I walked over and adjusted it for him,  quickly realizing what I had just done,  I pulled back quickly but he grabbed my chin and lifted it up

"You are breathtaking" he whispered

Now it's not cold in here so no

I repeat NO chills will be felt tonight

The night was amazing,  a good distraction from my current life issues and I was glad for that

Kesian treated me like the queen I am the whole night while I got caught staring blatantly at him several times to which he returned with a small smile

NO CHILLS

Now my fans,  this is the end of this book,  feel free to hate me in the comments for this trash ending but frankly,  I don't care
