I was checking my dress in the mirror when I saw Chasity walk up behind me.
"What are you doing here?" I asked, genuinely confused, as I had thought I had been the only sophomore asked to the prom.
As if reading my mind, Chasity said, "Oh, I know you didn't think you were the only sophomore going to the prom…Joey just picked me up."
I scoffed. "Oh, well, congratulations, he's all yours!"
She smirked at me. "Very generous, Princess. And just so you know, Joey only liked you for one reason. He even had a bet going with his friends."
I stared at her in disbelief. What an ass.
"He was gonna nail ya tonight." she continued, obviously enjoying the look of shock in my face.
I gasped and ran out of the toilets.

That bitch, I thought to myself as I walked back into the hall. I could vaguely see Joey talking to someone and I immediately knew it was Cameron. Great.
"…and now you're gonna pay…you and that little bitch," I heard Joey shout at Cameron. I saw Cameron react to what Joey had just said and I knew I had to get over there quick. But there were so many people…
"Okay, you crossed the line…" I heard Cameron shout back at Joey.
Joey looked around him, turned back and punched Cameron straight on the nose.
It all happened so quickly and suddenly I found myself pushing through the crowd of people who had started to gather around the two guys. Anger was bubbling up inside me and I had no idea what I was going to do with I reached them. I eventually got to Joey and tapped him on the shoulder.
He spun around and, out of nowhere, my hand flew straight up to his nose and he flung his head back.
"SHIT, Bianca, I'm shooting a No Spray ad tomorrow," he screeched at me. I honestly couldn't care less about his stupid ad; he needed to pay for what he had done to Cameron.
"That's for making my date bleed, that's for my sister," I punched him again, harder this time, and to finish him off, I kneed him hard in the groin, "and that's…for me." I managed to say.
I pushed him gently to the ground whilst thinking to myself how stupid he looked now. What an idiot I had been to think I had liked some jerk like him. I took a deep breath and held out my hand to help Cameron up.
He looked from Joey to me, and I pulled him up. He gazed at me, amazed.
"Are you okay?" I asked him anxiously. He looked at me for a second, grinned at me with that gorgeous smile of his and said, "Never been better."
I smiled at him and took his face in my hands. I kissed his mouth gently.
I knew from that moment, that he was the boy I'd been waiting for.
