Chapter 4:
Liv's heart skipped a beat. Stunning. She had never loved a word so much in her entire life. Am I dreaming? She thought. When she was walking down the stairs, eyes locked on his, it had certainly felt like a dream. And having someone look at her like he did gave Liv the best feeling in the world.
"Well, you don't look too bad yourself." Liv said, smoothing out his suit coat.
"Alright, kids, time for pictures." Karen said suddenly. "Pete, honey, take some pictures." They got pictures of the girls putting the boutonnieres on the guys and the guys putting the corsages on the girls. Then they got group, pictures, and pictures of each couple, and then they were out the door.
"Have fun, kids!" Karen called out the door.
"Don't be out too late!" added Pete.
The approached the car, and Holden and Diggie both opened the car doors for their dates. Holden isn't planning on letting me touch a single door tonight, is he? Liv thought. Will he ever stop being adorable?
Finding parking at the school was nearly impossible. They had to practically park half way down the street. The group approached the school, and of course, Holden held the door open. They got inside there was a table with people collecting the prom tickets. Holden reached into his pocket, then his other pocket, then his suit jacket pocket.
"What's wrong?" asked Liv.
"I must have left them in the car." He said with a sigh. "I swear, I'll hurry as fast as I can."
Liv laughed. "It's totally fine. I'll wait here."
"Okay. Diggie, can I have your keys?" Holden asked. Diggie reached into his pocket and tossed him his keys. "I'll be right back." Holden said, hurrying out the door.
"Listen, Liv," said Maddie. "Diggie and I are don't wanna hold up the line. We'll see you inside?"
"Yeah, of course." replied Liv, sitting down on a bench. Maddie and Diggie handed over their tickets and went into the gym.
Liv looked at the clock. It had been five minutes. Where was Holden? She decided to get up and go look for him. Maybe he was on his way back and she would run into him on the way to the car. She walked out the door, then across the parking lot. As she turned the corner to walk down the street, she saw flashing lights. She was confused at first, but then as she got closer, she was able to see a woman outside of her car looking very distressed, talking to a cop. And then she saw someone lying motionless on the road. It looked like… Liv's heart stopped. She began running to the scene.
"Holden!" she yelled.
A/N: Hey guys! Bet you didn't see that one coming! Or maybe you did. Whatever. Anyway, I'm sorry for two reasons. 1. For posting such a short chapter. And 2. For leaving a cliffhanger! But I'm feeling sort of evil at the moment, so I couldn't resist ending it there. So what do you think? Will Holden be ok? Guess you'll have to find out next chapter. (How do you like me now, Joy?) Anyway, as always, reviews welcome!
