Prom Cat

Alicia dreaded going to the prom alone but a stranger came knocking and gave her the prom of her life.

“They are staring at us.” Alicia said.
“Because you are beautiful.” Alonzo said.
She blushed even more. “You are just saying that to make me feel better. I know they think we are an odd pair. I’m so plain compared to you.”
Alonzo tipped her chin up to stare into her hazel eyes. “I am but an ordinary cat. If they cannot see real beauty as a cat can, then that is their fault not yours. I came to you and saw your heart. Now, I will give you what you want: the prom of your life.”
