Chapter Twelve: Homecoming Part II
" I can't believe that Willow would let you bring me to the dance!" Billie stretched herself in the red ferrari. " And besides, I don't like the feeling of you being my date....you are my father!" Billie looked away in disgust.
" Billie, Billie, Billie...have some common sense in your brain. I'm only your escort, love, so I can keep you away from harm." Spike pushed the pedal on a green light.
" Oh well...but I just want to get this straight. You are my escort, but not my date. Ok?" Billie said seriously.
Spike nodded and then pulled into the parking lot. The two could hear the booming loudness of the music coming from the school building. There were some laughs and giggles coming from the girls who arrived with their dates.
Billie looked around....and still no sign of Him.
Spike got out of the car, and opened Billie's door opened. He held out his arm, and simply said, " May I escort you to the dance?"
Billie laughed and put her hand in his and they both walked to the building. When they arrived, Billie was pretty surprised at all of the decorations. There was a live DJ and mostly everyone was on the dance floor.
" I'm going to get us some Punch, all right?" Spike said. Billie nodded and then he left to the nearest table.
Billie's ocean-blue eyes searched the room. Still no sign. Suddenly there was a tap on her shoulder. Billie turned around and saw her best friend with Mark Andrews.
" Hey Billie! So, what do you think of the dance so far?" Laurel seemed to be drunk from the punch, but she seemed to be acting like herself. Billie looked at Laurel. She had on a lavender gown with a sterling silver bracelet with her name engraved on it. Laurel's hair was wreathed with some flowers.
" You look gorgeous, Laurel." Billie smiled, but her eyes were elsewhere. Laurel looked at her and smiled. " Thanks." Laurel replied.
Then, the lights dimmed. The principal of the school went up and held an envelope in his hand. His hair was slicked back with some gel, and he had on a tux.
" Students of this school, it is now time to announce our Homecoming King and Queen." He proudly said. There was an applause in the audience.
Billie was with Mark and Laurel. She looked around and saw Scorpio with his date...Shalamar Parker. The popular girl was squealing with her friends in excitement.
" I know you will win." Peggy Lawrence said. Her pigtails were out of fashion, but her pink skirt and her white blouse really brought out her personality.
" I absolutely agree with Peggy. I mean..you have the best boyfriend that any girl could imagine." Donna Paterson smiled. Shalamar seemed to be drowned by her friend's compliments.
Laurel saw Billie staring at them. She tapped on her shoulder, " Hey, don't listen to them..." Billie smiled and then looked onto the stage.
" First, I would like to announce our King who has done a lot of community service to help our public to prosper. And he is also on the honor roll and has done many good deeds, that I can't even count! Please, give it up for....Scorpio Lockwood!"
There was a loud cheer in the background as Scorpio in his handsome tux went up to the stage and got his crown. Now, it was his turn to wait for his beautiful queen.
" And now....for the best moment...I'm proudly to present this year's Homecoming Queen! Miss..." before the principal could finish, some fiends and monsters came bashing into the room.
" Laurel!" Billie saw her being caught in a vampire's embrace.
" Oh my god! Billie help!" Laurel screamed in distress. Billie went to the fiend and landed a low kick. The vampire let go of Laurel and Billie led her and anyone she could find to safety.
The room was now trashed with blood. Billie searched the room for any wounded. She went out of the door and into the hallway. Billie heard a scream that was familiar. " I'm coming!" Billie yelled out into the halls, and ran to the room where the source of the scream was heard.
" I can't believe that Willow would let you bring me to the dance!" Billie stretched herself in the red ferrari. " And besides, I don't like the feeling of you being my date....you are my father!" Billie looked away in disgust.
