On Thursday Lydia and I went to go see Suzy for my very last fitting, I got to finally see my dress that I would be wearing tomorrow night and I couldn't wait. She picked me up after school and she sped off to the mall.
"I'm so excited to see your face when you see the dress. Stiles has already seen it he needed to know what colour for the tie so he saw it yesterday before I took him tie shopping honestly that boy has no idea." I laughed at her expression as she pulled into the mall.
"Come on he can't be that bad, and didn't you take Parrish shopping for his tie yesterday too?" I questioned as we made our way to the front doors. She nodded and picked up the speed of her walking.
"I did but I took them both together two birds one stone sort of thing, so yes he has seen your dress too and he and Stiles both love it, Jordan wonders how Liam left you and Stiles just thinks he's an idiot for not making a move on you before." She flipped her hair as we walked into the shop. I saw a beautiful blue dress hanging on a mannequin as we walked in and my eyes were fixated on it. "That's your dress Amya." Lydia pushed me towards it as Suzy came out from the back.
"Do you want to put it on so I can make the last lot of alterations on it?" she asked me taking it off the mannequin. I quickly got dressed in the changing rooms and came out. All the alterations were finished within the hour and Lydia and I had picked out a pair of shoes to go with it. I paid the rest of the amount owing and we were on our way to go get some dinner before she dropped me home.
Friday came all too quickly and suddenly Kira, Lydia and I were in my room getting ready for the formal.
"Do you think Liam will still take Hayden?" I asked the girls as Lydia delicately curled my hair.
"I really don't know what to tell you Amya, but I can say that you should go and have fun with Stiles tonight and just forget about Liam, just for tonight." Kira told me as she applied a coat of lipstick to my lips. I sighed and nodded at her. Ignoring Liam would be a tough task but I have Stiles to try and get my mind off it. I pulled on my sparkly silver heels and did a once over in my full length mirror. To tell you the truth I thought I looked hot. I looked over at Lydia as she did the finishing touches on her hair and pulled on her own gold sparkly shoes, she came over and joined me in the mirror checking the both of us out Kira followed and we just stood there and looked at ourselves in the mirror. I heard Stiles' jeep pull up in the driveway and suddenly I felt really nervous. Lydia must have noticed as she grabbed my hands and pulled me over to my bed Kira sat down behind me and rubbed my shoulders.
"Everything is going to be fine Mya. Don't worry about Liam and just have a really good night tonight. If you don't I'm going to have to spike the punch and that was always something Jackson did and I don't really want to bring up those memories. So please for my sanity and everyone else's please enjoy yourself." I took a deep breath and stood up sudden confidence surging through me. I flipped my hair and took another look at myself in the mirror.
Kira, Lydia and myself all held hands as we made our decent on the stairs. Stiles and Scott turned to look at us, I saw as Lydia's eyes searched and then her shoulders dropped. I squeezed her hand and the door flew open. Jordan Parrish stood there fixing up his tie, Stiles Stilinski stood and gawked with his mouth open and Scott just had a dazed look on his face. We all ran up to our dates who wrapped their arms around our waists. Kira and Scott were locked in a passionate kiss and Lydia and Jordan were locked in a staring competion.
"You look beautiful Amya." Stiles whispered in my hair. I flash suddenly went off and I looked towards my mum.
"Whoops sorry, picture time everyone…" she continued on to tell us the position she wanted us all in as she went snap happy on the camera. Stiles pulled me aside as everyone was busy.
"Amya, I wanted to give you something and I'm not great with this sort of stuff so I got Lydia and Kira to help me but I got you a necklace, I know I'm technically supposed to be giving you a corsage but I really didn't want to so I bought you this." He pulled out a simple necklace from his pocket. "It's supposed to symbolise you and Liam, I know you don't want to think about him but-,"
"I love it Stiles thank you." I turned around a lifted my hair so he could clasp the necklace around my neck. I spun around and pulled him into a tight hug. He buried his head in my neck and I felt safe and comfortable. I almost forgot about Liam for a little bit. We pulled apart and looked to everyone as we all headed out and got into each respective car.
I fiddled with the radio in Stiles' jeep as we made our way to the school for the formal. He helped me down from the jeep and we made our way inside with Kira and Lydia. It was all I could hope for. Of course I wish I had gone with Liam but I was with my best friend and who could ask for more? The night went smoothly for everyone, but towards the end I still hadn't seen Liam all night and I was starting to worry. The DJ announced that this would be the last dance of the night and my heart sank. I wanted one dance with Liam, as I stood up to leave before anyone would notice me I was tapped on my shoulder.
"May I have this dance?" I spun around and saw Liam standing in front of me half bowing down with his hand out. I inwardly squealed and took his hand. He led me towards the dance floor and I wrapped my arms around his shoulders and he around my waist. It felt like a puzzle piece that had been missing for years.
"I thought I wouldn't see you tonight?" I made it sound like a question.
"Oh yeah I wasn't here all night I came for that dance that you promised me. I couldn't come with Hayden tonight it just wouldn't have been right to lead her on like that." His grip tightened on me slightly as the song ended. "Come home with me?" he pleaded. I nodded and let him lead me outside where I took off my heels, I knew we would be walking. I quickly shot Stiles and Lydia a text telling them I was sorting things out with Liam and not to worry. He gave me a piggy back all the way to his place where set me gently on the bed and gave me some clothes to change into. I apprehensively took the clothes and got changed in his bathroom. I'll tell you now it was good to get out of that dress and those heels. I grabbed a facewasher that he had in there and washed all my make up off and threw my hair in a messy bun. I walked back out and Liam was pacing. He had changed out of his tux but he was still pacing and he looked like he was thinking. I dropped my dress and heels by his bedroom door and cleared my throat.
"Am I staying the night Liam?" I asked him. He nodded and then motioned to sit on his bed. He kneeled in front of me before taking a deep breath.
"Amya. I just want to say I'm sorry. I'm sorry for everything I have put you through the last couple of weeks and I'm sorry for physically hurting you too. I'm sorry I flipped my shit when I saw you and Stiles kissing in the jeep and I'm sorry I walked away after you kissed me the other day. When I saw you tonight you blew my mind, I never you could look even more beautiful than you do on a regular basis. I really want you back Amya and it kills me to see you happy without me and I get it if you don't want to be with me again." He stood up and made a move to walk away from me. I grabbed his wrist gently and stood up myself making him face me.
"Liam shut up for five second and stop feeling sorry for yourself. If I didn't want to get back with you would I have kissed you other day? Would I have noticed you weren't there tonight? Would I have locked myself in my room for a week after you broke up with me? I don't think so, so look into my eyes and tell me you love me." I kept hold of his hand. His eyes fixated on the interlocking of our fingers. He gulped looked up at me, straight in my eyes and cupped my face with his free hand.
"I Love you Amya Lahey." With those few words I closed the gap between us and pulled him in for a heated kiss.
