EPOV
It has been 5 months since our house burnt down and, we lost Alice. Things have been better and we are all back to our normal selves. Izzy has been helping me get better. She has looked after me and kept me from hurting people that were talking about my family. The house near Izzy has been sold because the one that got burnt down has been built again and refurnished.
Today was the last day of school before prom and every one including me for once, was excited.
I was walking with Izzy around school, going to Biology when I stopped her and pulled her to my side. I leant against the lockers, holding her to my chest. My hands were intertwined behind her back, just resting on top of her bottom. Her hands came up to wrap around my waist and her head rested gently on my shoulder. I leaned my head down to rest on top of hers and kissed her temple.
"Izzy?" I asked her.
"Yeah babes?" she answered. I hid my head in the crook of her neck and breathed in her smell.
"Will you go to prom with me tomorrow?" she sighed and moved her head around to kiss me. Her answer was short but made me happy no matter what.
"If you want me to, I don't have a problem, but come with me after school to get something to wear please?" she used her puppy eyes she knew I couldn't refuse. I rolled my eyes and kissed her again nodding yes.
she smiled at me before taking my hand and walking into the classroom. We sat in our seats, thank god they were next to each other, and held hands under the table.
Mr. Banner decided to make an entrance right then, yanking on a lead that was joined to an old television.
"Right kids! Settle down! Today we are watching a video about cells so be quiet and watch the screen!" he practically shouted at us. He was a good teacher but could get a bit moody when he hasn't had any coffee in the last 24 hours, that must be the case.
Collective groans and whines were heard across the class room. Angela Webber, a nice girl but a bit silent, was smiling. It made me smile watching people be happy. Especially if it was Izzy. I felt her squeeze my hand, I looked at her and she was giving me a questioning look. I just shrugged and looked back at the screen.
The day went quick and it was now last lesson before I had to go shopping with Izzy. Luckily my last lesson was Music, I enjoyed music. I was sat in the practice room on my own with the teacher, Mr. Greggs, playing the piano. He liked how I played and said I have a good talent and should consider a career in music. Before I knew it, the bell went signalling it was time to go home, or for me shopping!
I walked out off the room and down the hall and found Izzy by my locker. My bags in hand. I smiled at her and kissed her softly.
"Hey" I greeted her.
"Hey" she kissed my cheek and hugged me before taking my hand and giving me my bags.
"Are you ready to go?" she asked me.
"Yeah lets go find you a dress" she groaned and I laughed.
"Don't groan it was your idea" I scolded her still laughing silently.
"Yeah but you suggested going to prom with me" she retorted.
"True" we walked down the hall and outside to the Volvo.
We drove silently keeping conversation to a minimum. I parked the car outside of the dress shop, it was mainly for weddings but they had some prom dresses in there.
"Hello, how can I help you two today?" the shop keeper asked us happily.
"Hey, were looking for a prom dress for Izzy" I replied to her with a smug smile on my face.
"Of course, right this way please" we followed her out to the back of the shop.
I sat down on one of the green leather chairs in the corner.
"So your just going to sit there Edward? Do I have to give you a show?" she was looking through the racks of dresses with the shop keeper who we now knew as Kelly.
She was nice. I decided to mess with Izzy so I said…
"Yep, your going to have to give me a show and while your changing and choosing with Kelly I will sit and watch you work" she turned around and glared at me.
"I'm only joking Izzy".
She turned back around and huffed,
"You better be, or I will kick your ass!" we both laughed.
She picked out 3 dresses that she liked the look of and took them into the changing rooms.
She came out in a sparkling blue one that I didn't like the look of.
"What do you think?" she asked frowning. I smiled slightly and winced.
"It looks better on a hanger than on you" she laughed and agreed with me before walking back in there giggling.
The next one was better.
"That one is nice, but I don't like the colour on you" it was a subtle red colour with black diamonds around the neck line.
It looked good on her but not the colour.
"Yeah I need a darker colour. Not reds or pinks or blues, anything like that is a no"
She walked back in before coming out in the most beautiful dress in the world. It looked good on her and fitted her. The colour suited her and she seemed to like it judging by the smile on her face.
"You like it?" I asked smiling. She nodded and blushed.
"Good, I do to, you look amazing" she blushed more and I walked up to her and kissed her hands.
The dress was a very dark blue that looked black when it was on. It had little beads around the bust and neckline. It was strapless and went flowing down her body from the waist in a satin like material.
She got dressed and took the dress she wanted out to the check out to pay. I beat her there and paid for it before she had a chance to get her money out.
"Edward!" she scolded me. I smiled sweetly at her and shouted a thank you to Kelly while dragging Izzy out of the store behind me.
I drove her home, then drove myself home.
"Hello dear, where have you been?" Mum asked me. I smiled at her before kissing her cheek.
"Hey Mum, I took Izzy to the dress shop, she's going to the prom with me tomorrow" she screeched and hugged me tight.
"Aww my little baby is going to the prom, and with the nicest girl on the Earth" her eyes started to water. She dabbed at her eyes before sniffing and hugging me again. "Dinner is ready if you want any" she told me.
"I'm okay Mum, I'm too tired so I am off to bed, night" I replied, kissing her cheek once more.
"Okay sweetie, sweet dreams"
I walked up stairs and into bed falling asleep quickly.
That night I dreamt of Izzy and me together at prom.
