Prom?
Prom is the one thing every girl looks forward to in high school. For a girl it's the 3rd most important event of her life. Not so much for the boys though. Boys don't really enjoy wearing a tuxedo, buying a girl flowers, and dancing in front of people. The only good thing about prom for boys is they get to stare at hot girls in dress, that and the food.
All though for Spencer Hastings, prom was never something she looked forward to. For the first three years of high school. She always thought prom was a waste of time and money. That's the excuse she would tell people. The truth was she was afraid of going alone to prom. She was afraid of being the only one without a date. Freshmen year it did not bother her much. Since all of her friends were single just like her.
The fear started in the 10th grade when all of her friends started getting boyfriends. Spencer, feared that she would be the only one in her group of friends to not have a date to prom. That fear went away when she started dating the world's sweetest boy, Toby Cavanaugh. Now her only problem is how will she ask Toby to prom?
Spencer plans to ask Toby to prom over a game of scrabble. Right now Spencer's in her house with her friends getting everything ready for tonight. "Are you sure this is a good way to ask Toby to prom?" Hanna asks. "Yes it's perfect. Scrabble is our thing. The first time we played is when we started dating and it brings us both good memories," Spencer says. "Besides the fact that Toby kicked your ass," Emily teases. Spencer glares at her and says "he only beat me by eight points. I hardly call that a complete ass kicking." "It is for you," Emily says. "It's also funny because Toby beat you with a simple word like goofball," Aria says. "Can we focus here? I have to get everything ready," Spencer says. "Why are you asking Toby to prom, isn't that the boys job?" Hanna asks. "Prom this Saturday and he hasn't asked me yet, so I'm going to ask him," Spencer says. "Well it's almost 8 o'clock and Toby's coming, so we better go," Emily says. The girls stand up and walk towards the door. "Thanks for the help guys," Spencer says.
After the girls left Toby showed up at Spencer's house. He walks in and hangs his jacket on the back of a chair. Spencer walks up and pecks him on the lips "hey you." He pulls her in for a hug and says "hey, I missed you." She smiles "I missed you too." They pulled apart and then sat down on the couch. "What are we doing tonight?" he asks. "I was thinking maybe we could play scrabble," she says. "Sure I would love to kick your ass again," he teases. She fakes a laugh "very funny. I'll go get some snacks while you set up the game."
Spencer came back with the snacks and Toby already had the game set up. She takes a seat beside him and prepares herself for a long hard game. "You ready to lose?" she teases. He chuckles "Spencer, we've played this game seven times and you only beat me once. I think it's you who needs to get ready to lose." She smirks and leans in closer so her lips our hovering over his. "If you're so sure you can beat me, then shut up and prove it." "I much rather kiss you instead," he says. "I bet you would, but if you want to kiss me then you better beat me," she says than moves away. Toby sighs in defeat "Alright let's play, so I can win already."
After a one hour of playing, their game was coming close to an end. Spencer was in the lead by six points, which makes her very happy. Now she's coming up on her last move and she has just enough tiles to spell out prom. Right now it is Toby's turn. She gets up and walks to the kitchen to get more ice, while he makes his next move. "Done," he says. Spencer walks back over and almost drops her glass at what she sees spelled out on the board. How did she not notice this before? As she looked at the board she noticed that Toby has been working to spell out Will You Go To Prom With Me.
She looks at the board and then back up at Toby, who is now smirking at me. "Have you been working on this the whole time?" she asks. "You were too busy spelling out big words to notice," he says. She sits back down beside him and looks at the scrabble board some more. This is so unfair. Spencer was supposed to ask him. When she looked back at Toby, she saw him pull out a rose. He takes her hand and says "Spencer, will you go to prom with me?" She smiles and says "I wanted to ask you first." He laughs "so is that a yes?" "Yes," she says then throws her arms around him. They pull away from the hug only to come in for a long passionate kiss. Once they pulled apart Spencer started laughing. "What's so funny?" he asks. "I was going to ask you to prom over a game of scrabble. You stole my idea," she says. "I knew you were going to ask me," he says. "How?" she asks. "Hanna told Caleb, and then Caleb told me," he says. She rolls her eyes "idiot." He pulls her closer to him "hey, it doesn't matter, what matters is that we're going together." She lays back in his arms and sighs "yeah, I guess you're right." "Plus I beat you again in scrabble, so you owe me a kiss," he teases. I laugh and say "shut up." "You said if I beat you, you'd give me a kiss," he says. She sighs "fine. She sits up and pecks him on the lips. "Is that all?" he teases. She stands up off the couch and starts heading up stairs. "Where are you going?" he asks. She looks back at him and smirks "if you follow me up to my room I can guarantee you'll get a whole lot more than a kiss." She winks at him and then walks up the stairs, with Toby not far behind her.
Does anyone have any one-shot ideas they would like me to write? If so I would love to hear them and maybe I will write them.
