It was so delightful this morning! The sun shown brightly in the pale blue sky, with not a cloud in sight! I was suprisingly happy to slip on my uniform, and get going to school. My Mother called me downstairs for a breakfast of pancakes and eggs, my favorite. She was going on about how excited she was, since her new dress was put in some dumbass magazine. I just decided to block that out, and look outside at the beautiful scenery. It had been raining for weeks, so all you could see was dark, dark, and more dark. I had even began to grow pale, what with no light on the outside!
I said goodbye to my Mom and Dad, as I began my way to school. The side walks were now all dried up, and the streets were now free of trash. I walked crazily, I was so hyper this morning! I started to hum as I skipped down the road. It was so quiet, I think I was the only one there. I looked around, to see that I WAS the only one there. That was odd, I remember so many students taking this road.
I showed up at school, hoping to meet up with Tadase, Kukai, Nadeshiko, and Yaya, but I didn't see them. In fact, I saw no one! I ran inside to see if anyone was atually in school. I heard something in the ceramonial hall. I walked into an important assembly. The principal glared at me from afar, so I quickly grabbed the nearest seat.
"I would like to anounce a special event coming up," Sputtered the principal as he starred at the audience. The people around me began to whisper, "I wonder what it is!" Apparently the principal heard them, "If you'd shut your traps, you'd know!" He shouted drastically, which made them all settle down. "Next week is prom," He boasted, "Boys ask girls ONLY!" The girls around me sighed a bit, but the boys thrived in laughter. The principal glared again, "I hope you all have a good time, now get to class!" I was run over by around five thousand kids trying to get to the hall. Someone through out a hand to help me up. It was Tadase.
"Hi!" I said excitedly, as we walked out of the auditorium together, "So who are you asking to prom?" He looked at me, but then sighed, "I've got no clue," Tadase said, sadly. I patted him on the back and smiled, "It's okay," I replied, "You'll find someone good!" He smiled back at me, and I ran ahead so I'd get to class on time. Now that I asked Tadase that question, I thought, I wonder who'll ask me? As I sat down in the back of the classroom, a few girls came up to me. "I bet Ikuto'll ask you!" One of them whispered with glee. I starred at her, "Who's Ikuto?" I asked, "And how would you know?" The girls gasped, "Ikuto's only the sexiest teen ALIVE!" They shouted, "And our sister knows him, he talks about you ALL THE TIME!" I shooed the pack of girls away with an annoyed glare. Why would I go with a complete stranger? Am I THAT desperate looking?
After class, we had a meeting in the greenhouse. I was REALLY excited, 'cause now I could find out who everyone was going with to prom, if they were asked OR got asked, of course. I walked in, as the group was waiting for me. "AMU-CHAN!" Yaya screamed as she hurled herself at me. She gave very gripping hugs. As I pryed her off of me, Nadeshiko asked, "So who are you guys going to the prom with?" Tadase gave another large sigh, "I don't know who to ask," He said, sadly. Yaya cried a little, "Kairi hasn't asked me yet," She said sobberly. Nadeshiko patted her as Kukai began to speak, "I don't know who to ask either," He said, "But I sure as hell ain't takin' Utau!" "Why not?" I asked him, "I thought you guys were dating!" I tried to fight back a joyful yelp as he replied, "She was bein' a moody bitch about me hanging out with you, so we broke up." We didn't really use the time for our meeting wisely.
I packed my stuff up as everyone left. I said goodbye, then dragged my backpack across the greenhouse. Kukai was waiting outside. "What is it?" I asked him, thinking something was wrong. "Who're you going to prom with?" He asked, without answering my question. I shrugged, saying that no one asked me. He smiled brightly, his teeth shining in the street light's overhead. "Well, I was wonderin'," He stammered a bit, "Would you go with me to prom?" I starred at him, thinking it was a joke. But, his expression indicated, that it was not. I shuttered, but began to answer, "Can you give me time to think about it?" I asked him. He just smiled. "Of course!" He laughed, and ruffled my hair. I waved as I walked up my driveway. Kukai just asked ME to prom? I still shuttered just thinking about it. But, Kukai was really nice, and we always had a "thing" well, sord of. I was freaked out, but also flattered by it. Hopefully it didn't take me to long to decide!
