Chapter 8: Prom Ready

It was the day of Prom. Lonnie, Mal, Evie, and Jane were all in Lonnie's dorm getting ready. Since Lonnie was the only one without a roommate, she had the most room in her dorm and could host the most people. Evie had dropped off everyone's dresses the day before so she'd have the time to get ready with everyone else.

They'd all been coming and going from Lonnie's room since about ten in the morning. Evie got called out every once in a while to do repairs for someone's dress. There was a large supply of food set out and music playing. They'd all done their nails first and were now currently working on their hair. It was currently around four. Prom wasn't until 7:30, and they were going to dinner with the boys at six, so they still had a couple of hours to get ready. It was a good thing too, because some of their hairstyles would take a little longer to style.

Mal and Jane's hair were the easiest. They were doing curled half up half down styles. Mal's hair had braids going around the back of her head and Jane had a half ponytail with a bump at the front of her head. Evie's hair should have been easy since essentially it was just a French braid, but it was a bit more complicated than a normal French braid and she fastened crystals into her hair. Lonnie's hair was a loose curled updo with some crystal feathers to decorate it.

Once they were done with their hair, all they had left to do was their make up and put on their dresses. They finished their make up rather quickly because none of them had elaborate make up. Then it was time to put on their dresses.

Mal's dress was purple. The top would've been an illusion neckline had the purple lace design on it hadn't lined the straps and neckline. The skirt was a lot of layered tulle.

Jane's dress was light blue. The top was sleeveless and was a textured material. The skirt was tulle with some pieces layered over to create a textured skirt.

Evie's dress was royal blue. The top was a sweetheart neckline with bejeweled straps. She had a small crystal belt separating the top from the skirt. The skirt was a-line with a lighter sheer with a heavier slip underneath it.

Everyone was talking about how beautiful everyone else looked. Evie, who had been taking pictures throughout the day, was now taking pictures of everyone in their dresses and selfies.

At 5:30, there was a knock on the door. It opened a crack and the girls could hear Carlos's voice. "Is everyone decent?"

"Yes!" the girls answered. The door swung open to reveal the boys. Carlos and Ben had already seen Jane and Mal's dresses, so they just walked over to them and started talking. Neither Doug nor Jay had seen Evie or Lonnie's dresses, however, Jay was the only one who was left speechless at the door.

He slowly walked over to Lonnie and looked her up and down.

"What's a matter, cat got your tongue?" Lonnie asked him teasingly.

"You look beautiful," Jay was finally able to muster.

"You don't look so bad yourself," Lonnie replied bringing her lips to Jay's and kissed him.

"Okay, if we leave now, we'll make it to dinner just in time!" Evie called and everyone started grabbing their things and leaving the dorm. They made their way to the front of the school and to where the limos were being rented out.

Their limo took them to Tony's, which was an Italian restaurant. Tony's, along with Tiana's Place, was one of the main restaurants that people would be going to for dinner before Prom, so it was pretty packed. However, since they had a reservation, they were able to get a table quickly.

Prom was being held at Adam and Belle's castle. There was a line of limos dropping everyone off at the front of the castle. All the guys offered their arms to the girls and all the girls strung their arms through them and then they made their way to the ballroom of the castle.

There was someone at the entrance of the ballroom announcing everyone as they came in.

"Presenting, King Benjamin and Lady Mal."

"Presenting, Doug and Evie."

"Presenting, Carlos and Jane."

"Presenting, Jay and Lonnie."

They each entered when they were called. There was no one currently on the dance floor. Generally, people wait until the announcements of people arriving have died down. Mostly everyone was just taking pictures and chatting.

"I just realized we didn't take any group pictures!" Evie exclaimed.

"We can go to the main staircase to take some," Ben informed her.

He led them out a different door than the one they'd entered from. Along the way, Ben had asked Mrs. Potts if she could take some pictures for them. They made it to the staircase and they all started lining up on the stairs. Mrs. Potts took a bunch of photos of them in different positions on the stairs, some nice photos, some candid photos, and some silly photos. Next, they did photos of just the girls and then they did couples' photos. Each couple stood at the base of the stairs and Mrs. Potts took a few photos of each couple.

They all thanked Mrs. Potts and made their way back to the ballroom.

"I'm gonna go check my make up in the bathroom. I'll be back in a few minutes," Lonnie told them.

"Alright," Jay said. "Don't take too long," he kissed her hand. She left to go to the bathroom and he continued to the ballroom with everyone else.

Lonnie went into the bathroom and started checking her make up. So far so good. Not even having pasta for dinner had messed up her make up. She gave herself one last look in the mirror before leaving the bathroom.

She opened the door to the bathroom and ran right into Audrey.

Oooo, drama! And a cliffhanger.

So, a sequel is currently in the works. I have my major plotpoints, but I wanted to know if there was anything that you guys would like to see in the sequel? It's gonna during the summer for the mentor program. I'm not gonna tell you what I have planned because I don't wanna spoil anything, but I am in process of creating new characters, both VKs and Aks. Keeping in mind that it is still going to be a Jay and Lonnie centric story, leave me any ideas you guys may have or want to see. Thanks for reading!
