Chapter 17
A week later it was the day of the prom. Laura actually got Kristi to go. It wasn't hard, this time she forced Kristi to go. I mean who doesn't go to a prom when they have a boyfriend? Goten helped along with Laura to get Kristi to come to her senses. It took about 20 minutes till she finally said yes. After that everyone jumped for joy. Maybe there was hope for Kristi yet. Anyway, Kristi spent the day with Laura getting all ready for later on that night. Goten was with Trunks at the house, they all had 4 hours to get themselves ready, before the limo came. Laura and Kristi went to a beauty salon called Rose Pedals. It was the same salon that Laura was getting her hair done for her wedding. They were going to get both there hair and nails done. When they got there they were taken very quickly, everyone recognized them both from when Bulma brought them. Laura had to practically drag Kristi inside. Once a tomboy always a tomboy, that's what Laura always said She had to keep telling Kristi that it was for only one night, and to enjoy it. A couple hours later they left the salon, they didn't have to pay. The manager said that he would just put it on Bulma's bill. They both had some time to kill so they went to get something to eat before they headed back to Capsule Corp.
Meanwhile back at the house, Trunks and Goten were sitting in the backyard talking. They were both waiting for the girls to get back before they got ready. They already got the corsages for each of them to wear around there wrists. Trunks got Laura daisies, while Goten got Kristi roses. Each girl got there favorite flower.
"So Goten how's Kristi?" asked Trunks.
"She's doing good" said Goten. "I still can't believe that she and Laura are best friends."
"Yeah" said Trunks smiling. "Do you love her?"
"Yeah I really do" said Goten smiling.
"Well I'm happy for ya bro" said Trunks.
"Thanks Trunks" said Goten. "You've been so much happier since you met Laura."
"Yeah it was like when I first saw her I knew she was my soul mate" said Trunks. "Ahh the girls are back."
"How do you know Trunks?" asked Goten.
"Man you need to train a whole lot more if you can't sense Laura's ki" said Trunks.
"Oh yeah now I can sense it" said Goten laughing. "Come on let's go." Trunks and Goten got up and went inside the house to find the girls. When they got inside, Laura and Kristi were just putting there things away.
"Wow" said Goten. "You look beautiful Kristi." Kristi started blushing.
"Thanks Goten" said Kristi.
"My angel always looks beautiful" said Trunks giving Laura a kiss. Laura just looked up at Trunks smiling.
"How much time do we have left before the limo comes?" asked Goten. Trunks looked down at his watch.
"About an hour" said Trunks. "Let's all go upstairs." So they all went upstairs and parted when they got to the top.
Finally it was time to go to the prom. Both Goten and Trunks was waiting downstairs for Kristi and Laura. They were both making the final touches on each other. Well Laura was actually putting the final touches and Kristi since she would never in her mind touch makeup. Laura was in a baby blue gown that flared at the end. She had on light blue mascara and a light pink lipstick, Kristi was in a red gown that had slits on each side. Laura was putting on light pink mascara on Kristi. Laura got Kristi to keep her hair down for the night, since she always had it up in a ponytail. Kristi's hair was curled at the bottom to make it look fancier. Laura's hair was up in a bun; her hair was curled and had a couple of strands of hair down by her face. She also had daisy clips all in her hair to show it off.
"There we go all done" said Laura putting her makeup away. "Now was that so hard?"
"Ya know it was" said Kristi.
"Don't you want to see the look on Goten's face when you go downstairs?" said Laura. "He's not going to be able to take his eyes off u."
"Do you really think so?" asked Kristi.
"Yes I know that for a fact" said Laura. "And then when you go home tonight and you're happy you'll say to yourself It's a good thing that I listen to my best friend Laura. She was right about everything."
"I guess your right" said Kristi. "But I'm never doing this again."
"Sure" said Laura sarcastically. "Now let's go, there both waiting for us downstairs."
"Alright" said Kristi. They both got up and headed downstairs.
When they started walking down the stairs both Trunks and Goten's turned towards them. At the same time both of there mouths dropped. Laura started giggling when she got to the bottom. She closed Trunks mouth and watched Kristi come down. When Goten saw Kristi his mouth dropped even lower then before. Trunks looked over at Goten and started laughing quietly. When Kristi got to the bottom, she walked over to Goten.
"So how do I look?" asked Laura.
"You always amaze me" said Trunks. "You look so beautiful, that no one can beat u."
"Well what about me?" asked Kristi.
"You look astonishing" said Goten finally over his shock of words. "You look so beautiful, that everybody's going to say so."
"Thanks Goten" said Kristi blushing.
"And it's all thanks to me" said Laura smiling.
"Of course Laura" said Trunks giving her a kiss. "Well let's go everyone the limo is here." Everyone walked outside and carefully went into the limo. After Trunks got in, the driver took off towards the school.
When they got to the school they were already tons of people inside. Trunks and Laura walked in hand in hand. Same with Kristi and Goten. The kids at the desk took there tickets and they walked into the gym. Inside the gym the music was blasting, and everyone was out on the dance floor dancing. Laura, Trunks, Kristi and Goten went over to there table where the rest of there friends were sitting.
"Hey everybody" said Trunks.
"Hi Trunks" said Shawn. "Hi everyone, now that were all here let's go get our pictures taken."
Everybody went over to where people were getting there pictures taken. Laura, Kristi and Nikkee sat down while Trunks, Goten, Joe and Shawn all stood behind them. Then each of them got individual pictures done with there dates. After that, they all went onto the dance floor and danced. At midnight everybody started to go home. It was a night to remember. Trunks and Laura got homecoming king and queen. Half way through the prom the homecoming king and queen got a slow dance to themselves. It was a knock out with that one, everybody voted for them. On the way home they stopped at a restaurant to get something to eat, dancing all night sure makes you hungry. After that the driver each took them home. They all say goodbye and went there separate ways.
"I had so much fun tonight" said Laura while they were getting ready for bed.
"Yeah so did I" said Trunks. "It was a lot better because I was with you." They both went into peaceful dreams about each other.
