I can't wait. The night has finally come. The night where I can where my beautiful aqua blue dress. A night where I can feel like a princess. I think every girl dreams of their prom night, right next to their wedding. I was going with my best friend, Anthony Padilla. I've known him for as long as I can remember. We always got along so well. We have been with each other through the ups and the downs. But there was only one problem, he loved me.
Anthony had been in love with me for about a year now. I was defiantly not in love with him. I loved him, like I'd love a best friend. I never wanted me and Anthony to fall in love, but I guess I can't change what he feels. The night he told me that he loved me, I was in total shock. The only thing he wanted out of all that was that he and I remain best friends and nothing gets weird between us. So, I agreed to that. I know a lot of the times that something like this happens the girl doesn't want to be friends with the boy after, but I couldn't lose a friend that close to me. He has been accepting the fact that we could never be more than friends. But I am still going to prom with him, it has been a promise we made to each other in middle school, and we stick through it.
I got my hair and make-up done and put on my dress. Just a few moments after I put in my earrings, a limo pulled up in front of my house. It was Anthony waiting for me; I kissed my mom and dad who will be driving to my school on their own. I walked out the door, and there stood Anthony. I can't lie, he did look good in a suit. My parents followed me out the door so they could take pictures. They got in their car, and Anthony and I got into the limo. "You look beautiful." He told me. "Thank you, you look pretty good yourself. Honestly Anthony, I wouldn't want to go to prom with anyone other than my best friend." I said. "I too, let's have a good time tonight!"
When the limo stopped, Anthony got out of the limo, walked around and opened the door for me. I could see my friends standing with their dates taking pictures and stuff. Most of my friends were also going with their friends. After the whole ceremony, and everyone taking pictures, it was the prom after party at my friend Jen's house.
When we got there, everyone changed from their prom clothes into more casual ones. We opened a bottle of tequila and other drinks, and started to party. Most of the party was happening outside in her backyard, where me and a couple of my other friends were. I decided to go inside just to get away from the loud music for a minute or two. Being a little drunk, I bashed into someone who was just coming outside. It was Ian Hecox, I had just the smallest crush on him. "Oh sorry Kaylen" He said, damn his voice was hot. "Were you going inside?" "Yeah, I was gunna just sit in there for a while." "Can I sit with you?" When he asked me that my heart skipped a beat. I knew he was Anthony's best guy friend, and I knew if Anthony saw me with him he would be devastated. "Sure." I replied.
I woke up on the same couch, with Ian. I noticed that some other people were already awake, so I got up. I wanted to go home and sleep some more because I had a terrible hang over. I said bye to as many people as I could, grabbed my stuff, then started walking home. Jen only lived two streets away from where I did. I thought about Ian on the way back. I didn't really remember what we talked about; all I know was that I had a good time with him.
