However, Aaron and Wendy are MINE.
A/N: I've been trying to make everybody in character but it's pretty difficult. If Wendy ever seems out of character, that's because that's how she's supposed to be. Wendell and Amy are REALLY out of character but do try to bear with me. It serves a purpose. =] Thanks and sorry if I took so long to update. I got stuck. _ Anyway thank you to my devoted reader and friend, JEMMA, for bugging me to update haha ^^;; On with the story~ BTW, the next chapter will be up soon since I've written most of it.
Chapter 16
Wendell stared at the figure that shuffled before him. "You look beautiful, Wendy," he said in awe. He placed a look on his face and continued. "Now you're finally up to my neck!" he joked.
Wendell held out his hand and Wendy gladly took it. They talked about a variety of things while walking to the school. Being that the local high school wasn't too far, they were both comfortable walking. The couple soon arrived at the school. Wendell beamed when he saw the mesmerized faces of the majority of the male population. Wendy ignored the ignorant comments she heard and chatted a little with others who weren't so judgmental. Wendell followed, putting a firm hold on Wendy's waist to show that she was with him.
A little while later, Colin and Amy showed up. Amy wasn't slightly disappointed that she didn't receive the attention she expected. She soon found out the reason why and all her joy flew out the open double doors. Colin noticed the slight change in Amy's posture and began to comfort her. He knew she had a problem with Wendy, but he couldn't figure out why.
"Come on, Amy. We're here to have fun. Don't let her presence get to you, okay? Everything's fine," Colin whispered, wrapping his arms around her from behind. He gave her a small peck on the cheek and led them to a table where their other friends sat.
Meanwhile, Wendy was teaching Wendell how to dance. He started to get the hang of it but then gave up after a while. He left to go get them something to drink and Wendy was left alone. She searched the room for Ephram, just in case he came. She tried to find him a date for the formal but none of her new girl friends would go with him. Their excuses were either they weren't going or that they already had a date. But Wendy knew for a fact that they were lying. She could see them squeaming under her eyes. She sighed and gave up once she saw Wendell returning with the drinks.
They found a vacant table and sat down. They talked and laughed a little more together. Across the room, she could see Colin trying to get her attention. When he finally did, he grinned and waved at her to come over. Wendy smiled reluctantly and got up from her chair. She grabbed Wendell's hand and dragged him along with her. As she neared the overcrowded table, she recognized people and distinguished them from her classes. She said 'hi' to everybody, as did Wendell.
"You look splendid tonight, milady," Colin said in a fake British accent.
Wendy responded with the same accent, "Why thank you mister. I do believe you and your date look charming as well."
Colin looked over at the scowl plastered on his girlfriend's face and smiled sheepishly. He chuckled a little and they continued having small talk. Wendell tugged at Wendy's arm discreetly, wanting to dance with her. Wendy guessed he wasn't comfortable with the 'popular' crowd and would rather try to dance than to 'socialize.' She smiled and excused herself from the table to the dance floor with Wendell having off her arm. They continued dancing and adrenaline pumped throughout their bodies. They were having a great time.
A while later after Wendell reluctantly allowed Wendy to dance with other guys, Wendy came back with her face flushed. Wendell excused himself to get some drinks for her. He came back a moment later, balancing the drinks. Suddenly Kayla, a classmate of theirs, ran through the crowd and accidentally bumped into Wendell. A gasp escaped the figure as she noticed Wendy's dress.
The punch that Wendell brought splashed onto Wendy's dress and did not blend too well with its color. Immediately Wendell and Kayla ran to the nearest table to grab some napkins. Wendy stood in her place, stunned. Being that Kayla grabbed the napkins first, she attempted to brush the stains off, muttering fake apologies every once and a while. Her attempts only helped smudge each stain into an even larger one. A small smirk was visible and Wendy noticed it. She immediately tore away from Kayla with an evil glare.
"It's alright Kayla," she said, grinding her teeth. She looked at her borrowed dress. The material was now see-through because of the liquid. Wendell approached with napkins in hand and Wendy immediately coward behind him. She whispered into his ears about the situation and he turned a little red. He backed away from her and pulled off his jacket and placed it around her. A small crowd had gathered, including a stunned Colin, a twinkling Amy and smirking Bright.
"Whoa! You should show more, more often, Wendy!" Bright winked, easing the tension gathered.
Wendy was not in the mood to be teased and just glared at Bright. She didn't feel like being taunted after the dress had been ruined and she had been embarrassed in front of the whole school. She had an urge to just cry but didn't, knowing it would satisfy Amy and Kayla beyond belief. Wendy willed herself to not cry and whispered to Wendell that she wanted to go home.
The night was still young but nevertheless, Wendell agreed, saying that she owed him one. Wendell proceeded to guild Wendy out the door, pushing away anyone who got in their way, sort of threatening them with some information. Wendy wasn't paying attention so she didn't realize how Wendell protected her. Anger and sadness just blinded her, reminding her of everything that happened. She didn't even realized that she became a zombie for about an hour after she returned home...
