"Hello Mr. Banner, this is Bella Swan, your celebrity for the prom date competition." I said into the phone politely.
"Ms. Swan! It's so nice to hear from you! Did you get the tapes? Everyone is so excited! Thank you so much for doing this for us!" The middle aged man babbled with glee.
"Oh, it's my pleasure Mr. Banner; I never really got the chance to have a regular high school experience, so I'm very excited! I just wanted to let you know I did watch the tapes and I picked out the guy I want to go with" I continued "Edward Cullen" I smiled, glad I was in the back bedroom of the tour bus ( the one my parents sleep in) with the door closed, so no one could see my goofy grin.
"Ah, Mr. Cullen, good choice Bella, He's a straight A student, edgy behavior, though, he's visited my office quite a few times." I shifted; I didn't need to know this…
"Oh?" I replied
"Well Ms. Swan, I'm going to call an assembly now, to let the students know Edward's the winner. Thanks so much, again, have a good day!"
"You too, Mr. Banner!" And with that I hung up, my stomach in knots of anxiety. I couldn't wait until prom with Edward. Was he going to be one of the bad boys though? The one to poor the vodka into the bowl of punch? I couldn't figure out if that's how I wanted him to be or not.

"All students of the senior class, please report to the auditorium, Thank you" Mr. Banner, the principle, called over the loud speaker; Rumor had it he was going to announce who won the celebrity date. My heart was pounding with anxiety. Oh god.
I took a seat in the very last row of the auditorium bleachers. I saw Jasper and Alice in a row closer to the floor getting yelled at by a bitter teacher for inappropriate conduct (having Alice sit on jaspers lap).
I saw Banner walk in, a man of short and pudgy stature, in a black suite with a white button-up shirt and red tie. A janitor handed him a mega phone, he fumbled with the device until he finally got the hang of it.
"Hello Seniors! Are you all ready for prom?!" He pumped his fist. The students responded with screams of joy. Could this get any more like a cheesy teenager movie?
I rolled my eyes. Banner cleared his throat and the squeals came to a stop.
" Well, as you all know, the mystery celebrity prom date competition is going on now, and it's going to come to an end! I've spoken to our celebrity and she is happy to announce that the winner is…" He paused for suspense. Spit it out!
"Mr. Edward Cullen!!!" He said with enthusiasm. I internally Groaned and looked up at the ceiling. Tanya is going to be pissed.
Then I ran a hand through my hair. I got up and walked down the aisle to stand next to Mr. Banner. He gave me a congratulatory pat on the back and ended the assembly, and gave all seniors the rest of the day off.
I jerked my head at Alice and jasper, letting them know to meet me at my car. Then I felt familiar finger nails raking down my back. Tanya.
I spun my body around to see her strawberry blonde locks cascading just below her shoulders, hazel eyes, button nose. In her plaid skirt, white button down collared shirt, and blazer.
" Hi, baby" she cooed, then gave me an enthusiastic kiss. "Well, go talk to Banner before he leaves sweet heart"
"For what Ton?" I asked. Call me shallow, but the only reason I was 'with' Tanya Denali was because she was the hottest, not to mention most popular girl at school. She thinks we're an 'item', but all that happened was she asked me to prom, and I said yes, not thinking I was going to win celebrity prom date, but all she turned out to be was a really stupid bitch, so basically I was in it for the ass.
"To tell him you can't accept the celebrity cause you are going with me" She said as she played with the hem of my forest green blazer.
"Look Tanya… we never really defined that you were my girlfriend, or anything similar to that, I would really like to take my mystery celebrity to prom. I'm sorry Tanya I can't go to prom with you." I said matter-of-factly. In a blink of an eye, my cheek was red and burning from her vicious slap and she was swaying her hips out of the door to catch a ride with the girls who she allowed to be seen with her.
I walked out of the auditorium, my black shoes squeaking on the polished blonde wood floors. As soon as I stepped into the hallway, I was getting friendly gestures from all the guys in school, people I've never even spoken to had a whole new respect for me. I was usually the intimidating quiet one that no one bothered attempting to start a friendship with since grade school.
I slid into the driver's seat of my silver Volvo and greeted Alice and Jasper, who were both sitting in the back seat, and looked flushed.
"What am I? Your Chauffeur? And stop making out with my sister in the back of my car. It's disgusting." Jasper took my hint, and got out of the back seat, only to return to the car, in the passenger seat, next to me.
"Jesus, Edward, You just won the date of a life time, you'd think you'd be a little less of a douche" Jasper mumbled.
"Shut up, bitch, I have that whole Tanya thing, remember?" I said 'Tanya' like it was the name of a incurable foot fungus.
"Ugh, I wish you wouldn't associate with that girl. She's such a bitch! I don't even know why you started with her anyways-" Alice babbled mindlessly
"Look Ali, she's hot, and I don't have a girlfriend, so I agreed her to go to prom with her, all of a sudden she thinks we are fucking 'gf/bf' or whatever her and her friends call it, and I'm not into that shit, so when I won this celebrity date arrangement, I told her I wasn't going to prom with her, so she slapped me and sashayed out of the room like she owned the fucking place." I explained to my twin sister. She rubbed my shoulder, and it instantly soothed me; she always knew what to do.
"First of, don't call me Ali! Second don't worry about it Edward, drop her like the garbage she is" She scrunched her nose up in disgust, and gave me a reassuring pat on the shoulder before she drew her small hand off me and into her lap. I took a deep breath and continued driving up the narrow, winding road to our house.
One I opened the garage door my mother was standing at the door with a proud grin on her face. I turned the car off and slid out of the black leather seat, then opened the back door for Alice. Esme gave Jasper a quick peck on the cheek and hugged Alice before they retreated to one of their rooms to do homework together. I put on a faux smile, trying to forget the stress of the day, and hugged my mother warmly.
"Hello Dear, I heard the good news! Mr. Banner called, bearing his congratulations! I'm so excited for you darling! Here-"She held the garage door open for me and stepped out of the way "Lets go in the kitchen." She suggested.
I lead the way into the kitchen and sat on one of the tall stools, wresting my elbows on the black marble covered island in the middle of the kitchen. Esme got her hands busy rolling some dough on the counter.
"Long day, sweet heart?" She inquired
"Eh. Just stupid little things" I always felt I could talk to my mother, about anything, more her than my father. He was always so distant, loving in his own ways, but never around enough, and when he is, he's drained from his job as the Chief of Residents at Seattle General Hospital, yet he is still my role model- beautiful wife and five kids, Huge house, fancy cars. When I was young people would ask me what I wanted to be when I grow up, I would say 'my daddy'.
"Don't fret, dear, everything happens for a reason, and I'm sure it'll all work out for you in the end" she continued "On a lighter note, are you excited to go to prom with a celebrity?!"
"Yeah it should be cool, we have to rent a tux and stuff."
"Well I'm excited for you! I wonder who it is" Esme pondered as she clapped the flour off her hands and put the dough in our industrial sized refrigerator.
"Well, mom, I'm going to go upstairs and start my homework" I said like the perfect child I pretended to be, when truthfully, I'll save my homework for eleven o'clock tonight, and spend my entire afternoon playing and listening to music.
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
