Prom: The highlight in every teenager's high school life. For May, it's the season when boys show off their creativity in asking that "special someone". Her male classmates were pulling every possible string to pull off something ultra-special to ask that girl that they want as their date. Everywhere she would look, public proposals were made—apparently the more public, the better the guy's chances were.
She can't lie—to herself that is, she will never admit this to anyone—she's deeply jealous. It's a month before prom and she was dateless. Sure, she doesn't mind going stag and spending the entire prom dancing with her friends randomly. Problem was all her other friends had dates so they would most likely be dancing with their dates more.
But she was really jealous about was the chivalry. For once in her life, she's bore witness to the soft spots of her classmates, making their girlfriends, crushes or whatever else, feel special. With just one publicly asked question, those girls feel special. She wants that. She wants to feel special by someone's doing. She wants to feel beautiful in someone's eyes. But, who the hell would like her anyway? She wasn't exactly a looker compared to some girls in this school. She began to think. Prom isn't even here yet and she's already bummed. Could it be that Prom won't be what she's been expecting it to be?
May sat alone in the library, catching up on her notes. From outside, she heard muffled cheering done by a crowd. She could easily guess that another Prom Proposal was made. There was one thing her classmates weren't good at: inconspicuousness. The library was in the basement for god sakes, and she was on the third floor, which says that the witnesses were that loud and the proposal was that public.
When she tried to get back to her notes on the Medieval Period, her best friend Drew slipped into the seat in front of her.
"So," She said, not even looking up from her book. "Who asked who?"
"Jimmy asked Marina…" He reported. "He made his friends spell out 'PROM' using t-shirts."
She rolled her eyes, giving a faint smile. "A little High School Musical, but okay."
Drew nodded. No one spoke for a moment until he grunted, throwing his head to the table.
"Drew?" She cocked an eyebrow, finally looking at him.
"I don't have a date to the stupid prom." He complained through his emerald colored hair.
"You haven't asked anyone?" She wondered, surprised even that Drew hasn't asked anyone at all, knowing the charmer he is.
"No… and please, don't ask me why." He whined.
"Oh, don't be sad, I don't have a date either." She laughed sadly.
His head shot up. "Here's a thought—and I mean this in the most innocent way possible. No joke—why don't we go to the prom together?" He grinned sheepishly at her.
She stared at him for a moment. "As friends?" She questioned slightly.
"Sure." He shrugged nonchalantly.
May considered this. It was a month before prom. She needed to secure a date. Drew is her best friend. Why didn't she think of this before? Well, it wasn't exactly the proposal she hoped for. She doesn't really feel THAT special, this was Drew, her best friend. But, this would have to do, huh? What the, why the hell not right?
"Okay." She finally answered, shrugging her shoulders.
"Really?" Drew's eyes widened in disbelief.
May laughed, "Yeah, why not? You are my best friend."
"Promise?" He asked.
"Promise." She swore.
"You double promise to go to prom with me?" He asked again.
"Yes! I double promise! Now can you calm down grass head, I'm trying to study." She giggled slightly.
