The next morning I took a little extra time getting ready knowing it will possibly make it easier to talk to Trevor about the "date".
When Becky picked me up she noticed that I was a little more dressed up that normal.
"Well, it looks like your dressed to impress. Is it for Trevor?" Becky asked with a lovey dovey look in her eyes.
I couldn't tell her why I really did. "Oh, yeah. I just figured it wouldn't hurt." I said feeling kinda bad about lying.
"You don't have to worry about that! Trevor has been after you for a long time! I notice the way he looks at you. He is totally into you."
I was tempted to tell her that the only way he looked at me was with laughter, but I didn't.
" Yeah he has the most gorgeous green eyes." I was shocked to find out that I said that truthfully.
We were now at the school heading for our lockers.
"I'm sorry but I told Matt I'd meet him as his car." And with that she was gone.
I opened my locker thinking of how to ask Trevor "out". I didn't want him to think I liked him, but that's the only way he'd say yes. I was still thinking about this when I felt a tap on my shoulder.
" Hey Monster Girl, got a minute. I wanted to ask you how a vampire…" I cut him off.
" Will you go on a double date with me and Matt and Becky." I said it in a rush and quietly enough no one else heard. I realized that I should be trying to act shy sense I was suppose to like him. Afterwards I can just tell Becky I didn't really feel anything.
Trevor stood there momentarily shocked. Then he got a mischievous smile on his face.
"What was that? You want to go on a date with me? I am the soccer snob remember?" Trevor wasn't making this easy. I suspected as much.
"Your right it was a bad idea. Forget it." I slammed my locker and started to walk away.
"I'll pick you up at seven." Trevor called to me still sounding obnoxious. I smirked almost proud of myself for knowing him well enough that I knew walking away would work. The rest of the day I spent talking to Becky in-between classes, trying to fill her in on the play by play on how I asked Trevor out. I sweetened it up a bit for her.
On the way home Becky talked to me all about how the date was going to go and what we should wear and how much fun we were going to have. I didn't really pay attention but with Becky all I had to do was nod and add in some "Mhmm's" and "Yeah's" where it is was needed.
That night I told my mother about my double date. To say the least she was overjoyed. A little shocked too that her Goth daughter had a date with a soccer snob, though she'd never admit it.
" I can't believe it! You going out on a date with Trevor! I mean I can believe it you're a beautiful girl but he's not really your type…" I'm sure she kept talking but I didn't listen, instead I daydreamed about Alexander coming back. And all through dinner the only thing I could think about was him.
The next morning I woke up wandering how the days events would take place. Since Trevor and I had a "date" tonight I wasn't sure how that would change our normal pattern. Becky picked me up and rambled on once again about the date taking place that very night. After school I was heading over to Becky's to get ready. I still wasn't sure what I was wearing. I didn't wanna look like I cared but then again I wanted to look good. And I'm sure it'll take years just deciding on what Becky was wearing.
When I arrived at school I went through my normal routine waiting to see what happened next. When I shut my locker door the very soccer snob I had a date with tonight was standing on the other side.
" So my Monster Girl, are you ready for our little date tonight?" Trevor was going to get as much out of this as he could.
"Your Monster Girl? I don't think so." I replied laughing in his face.
" Tonight you are. See you then. I'll pick you up at Becky's." He replied sounding so sure of himself. I wondered how he knew I'd be at Becky's. Matt must've told him.
The rest of the day was a blur. I slept through most my classes because I couldn't sleep most nights due to my dreams of Alexander without me. Becky and I headed to my house while I grabbed my choices of what to wear tonight and headed over to Becky's house for the final decisions.
Becky tried on her whole closet it seemed but finally settled on a short skirt with leggings and a pink blouse. Even if it wasn't my style she still looked pretty.
I eventually settled on a red and black corset top, a black mini skirt with fishnet leggings and my combat boots. I could tell Becky would have loved to play Barbie with me and make me into a prep but she still seemed genuinely happy about the date. With that we finished our make up. Mine many shades darker than Becky's. Becky had her hair in curlers and took it out and it fell around her face so perfectly she couldn't have planned it better.
I however just brushed my waist length hair and let it be.
It was 6:45 and the boys would probably arrive early. Becky and I did a quick touch up and headed to the living room to wait. At about 6:55 we heard to cars pull into the drive way. Terrific, I'd have to be alone with Trevor. Both Trevor and Matt got out and came to the door. Becky answered it and gave Matt a quick kiss and said hello to Becky and they were off to the car already. That left me alone with Trevor. Joy.
