When we arrived everyone ran up to Kaytee and Michael got out of the car. Everyone ran over to us and grabbed them. I wonder when Kaytee became popular? Anyway I grabbed onto Chris and we walked in hand in hand. I quickly looked over at Calum, he seemed like he was having fun. But he averted his gaze from Mary to me. He winked and I looked away, as the blood rushed up to my cheeks. I looked around the room to see that everyone was having the time of their lives. As the song changed from a fast song to a slow one I led Chris to the dance floor.
About ten seconds into the song Chris let go of me and walked towards the bathrooms, it's strange that ever since us girls arrived at my house Christopher has been acting weird, kind of like he's hiding something from me.
I decided I was overthinking too much and went over to get some punch. As I walked up I spotted Calum at the end of the table looking out at everybody. I continued walking, he seemed to notice because he started walking over to me. "Hey, are you having fun?" he yelled due to the loud music. I nodded and asked why he wasn't with Mary. "She's in the bathroom" He replied. "Where's Chris?" he added. I shrugged and told him I was going to go look for him. I left and went towards the bathrooms. As I got closer I saw different couples making out and dry humping, It was disguising to say the least. I called for him but nobody answered. I turned to leave when I saw him and Mary making out in the corner. Tears welled up in my eyes and I ran, ran as fast as I could. Past the punch table and through the back doors. I ran all the way to the Soccer field and stopped. I stopped because this is where Christopher first asked me out.
~Flashback~
Me and Luke were sitting on the bleachers watching Calum and Christopher play and as the game was ending I got more nervous to talk to Chris, which may or may not be because I have a SLIGHT crush on him. Of course I still like Calum but Calum likes this girl named Mary. She's in my English class I always envied how smart and pretty she was, with her high GPA and her short brown hair. But anyway, we were just one goal from winning and we have 10 seconds left. Calum was dribbling the ball down the field then pasted it to Chris. When the scoreboard hit 3 seconds he kicked it. Just before the time was up it landed right into the goal. Everyone was screaming and then the soccer players came out all holding up individual posters. Together it read "Sky we have been friends or a while now so I wanted to know...." Then Christopher came up to me and brought me down to the field. The coach came out holding a bouquet of flowers and the final poster. "Will you be my girlfriend?" I nodded at Chris and hugged him as tightly as I could. Man this guy really is amazing.
~End of Flashback~
It felt like my heart was broken and I couldn't figure out which piece went where. I fell on my knees sobbing in the middle of the soccer field, when someone called my name. I turned to look at who is was, it was Calum he ran to me and just hugged me. After like 2 minutes of sitting here like that he asked what happened. I was contemplating whether or not to tell him about what I saw. I eventually decided it was his right to know, so I told him and he grabbed my hand and dragged me though the halls and up two sets of stairs until we got to the roof that overlooked the entire school grounds. He let go of my hand and stood near the edge. He sighed. I really wonder what's going through his head right now.... "You don't know how long I've been waiting for this to happen." He said turning to me. Wait what? "What do you mean?" I said with a sniffle. "Haven't you noticed?" He looked so shocked. "Noticed what?" I asked. "The way I look at you! The way I treat you! I couldn't stand being with Mary cause you are the girl I wanted to be with all along. When Chris asked you out I had to do something to make sure you wouldn't suspect anything so I asked Mary out. But now.... you are available." He looked out of breath. I for one was shocked, and two a little hurt. I got up and started walking away, when he grabbed my arm. "You like me, Don't you?" He looked so confused. "Honestly, right now I just need to think." I said before walking back to the dance.
When I walked in I saw Chris looking for me. When he saw me he made his way over to me. When he arrived in front of me I wasted no time in slapping him right across the face. I have to say I did a pretty damn good job, cause he had a hand print on his right cheek. The redness resembled a tomato. When Calum walked in behind me I grabbed his hand and led him to the dance floor. "I'm guessing you are done thinking?" He said with a grin. I nodded and placed my head on his shoulder as we swayed to the music. Just as the song ended it was crowning time. The nominees walked up on stage with their sashes and crowns on. When Kaytee walked up she looked straight at me and Calum, then glanced a our hands. She looked away and gave the crowd her usual award winning smile. If she doesn't win queen I don't know who will!
As Principal Morgan came up to stage, both the boys and girls on stage looked extremely nervous. I mean they are about to be crowned, why wouldn't they be nervous! She came center stage and named the entire court. Then she began explaining how big of an honor it is to become King and Queen. I glance at Michael he looked nervous so I threw him a quick thumbs up. The the principal started the crowning. "And this years Homecoming King is...." She pulled out the envelope and read it, "Michael Clifford!" She yelled through the microphone. Michael started doing his happy dance, when he realized he need to get his crown and sash. After they did so, the principal started crowning queen. "And this years Homecoming Queen is...." Kaytee was literally crossing everything. She looked so nervous it was literally making me nervous. "Kaytlyn Ambrose!!" As she said her name everything happened in slow motion...... Just Kidding! But I was jumping around in the air like a child. I was so happy for them! They called for the King and Queen dance and before you could say Kaytee she was out the door and Michael was yelling! What the hell just happened?!?!?
~Kaytee's POV~
When they announced the King and Queen dance, Michael and I made our way to the center of the dance floor. A slow song stared to play, Michael and I started to sway to the music. Out of the corner of my eye I see someone running towards the doors. I turn to see who it is, which just so happened to be Luke. I pull away from Michael and run after him. But before I got far Michael grabbed my arm. "If you go after him we are over" He yelled in my face. I yanked my arm away and ran as fast as I could to Luke. When I opened the gym doors it was raining, but under the awning I could see Luke's footprints heading towards the football field. I followed them and found him standing and the middle of the field. My dress is probably ruined, but right now I need to talk to him. I made my way to him, to find him crying. "Why is it that whenever someone likes someone that someone never likes them back?" I asked with a sniffle. "Lukey I don't know but in our case it isn't a problem" I said with a smile. He looks at me with a shocked expression, but all I wanted to do is kiss him. So that's what I did. I smashed my lips onto his and butterflies erupted in my stomach. He didn't kiss back at first, but then pulled me closer. And at this very moment I was happy.
