Thank you every one for the AWESOME reviews! Since I haven't really said what day it is or what time of year it is in my story so I guess I will now. It is June 13, 2009. It is Saturday and Jake is taking Bella to her Prom! I know it's kind of corny but I figured he knew she wouldn't expect him to take her to the Prom. Plz R&R! Thanks! =D
Disclaimer: I don't own Twilight… Dang it! =( =D
Prom
Bella's POV
" Hi Jake!" I said very enthusiastic.
" Hey Bells! Do you mind going out with me tonight?" he asked.
" Of course not. I'm very happy your taking me out but where exactly are we going?" I asked.
He grinned his Jacoby grin.
" It's a surprise." He said. He just loved surprising me. I turned to Alice.
" You know where he is taking me don't you?" I accused.
" Guilty." She said even though she really wasn't.
"This was your vision and that's why you said I needed to get this dress."
" Guilty again." Then she turned to Jacob and said, " I'll tell Charlie where you're taking her and tell him she'll be back around midnight."
" Ok. And thank you Alice. You may be a bloodsucker but your pretty cool."
" As long as Bella likes you I like you." She said.
" Come on Bells I don't want us to be late." Jake said.
" One second." I turned to Alice and hugged her. " Thank you Alice, for everything." I said.
" You're welcome. Now go have fun. And try not to kill your self." She teased.
" I'll try. Bye." I said as Jake and I walked out of the door. Jake opened the door to his Rabbit and helped , me inside.
" Why thank you." I said politely with an English accent.
" You're very welcome." He said with the same corny accent before walking around to the driver's side of the car. As soon as he got in he kissed me. Once again I was lost in him. Gosh was I ever going to get used to him. I already knew the answer. No. No I wasn't.
Jake pulled back and started the ignition. It wasn't till we turned onto the school drive that I found out where we were going. I could already hear the music and see the lights.
I turned to glare at Jake. " Jake, please tell me you're not going to prom." I groaned.
" Bells it'll be fine. I'll make sure you don't hurt yourself. Plus I can't dance at all so you'll look like the dancing queen next to me."
" I don't want people looking at me trying to dance." I groaned.
" Relax, we're probably not even going to be noticed." He said totally at ease.
" Fine I'll go on one condition." I said.
" Name it."
" You have to promise to watch out for me and never ever let me go while we are dancing. If you do I might really hurt somebody. Or myself." I said very happy with my request.
He turned to me and looked me in the eyes. " I swear to never ever let go of you and watch out for you forever." He said before pulling me into the most passionate kiss ever.
I wish we could have stayed there all night but the principle tapped on our window and said," You can't park here. Try the parking lot and when you park get out of the car instead of sitting there swapping spit." Then he went away muttering about how teenagers these days had no manners.
Jake turned to me. " Ready to go my lady?"
" Yes I am."
He opened my door for me and we walked hand in hand to the entrance. I looked down at myself not sure if I was overdressed or underdressed.
" You look stunning." Jake whispered in my ear. I blushed deep crimson red. We walked up to get our picture taken and get our tickets and then we entered.
The gym was spectacular. The theme was a night in the clouds. There was clouds surrounding the room and all of the lights were so low it was as if they were off. In place of the florescent lights there were what seemed like a million white light bulbs lighting up the ceiling and one big white moon that gave the clouds a silvery look. It was beautiful.
When a slow song played the lights were shut completely off so the fake moon would cast it's light on everyone's face.
When a rock song played the room lightened and the white light bulbs changed into different colors giving a party like mood. This was the best prom I'd ever been to partly because I was with Jacob.
" You want some punch?" Jake asked as we walked in.
" Sure."
He walked over to the concessions table and I scanned the room to see who was here. There was Mike and Jessica( big shocker), Angela and Ben, Eric and Katie, Tyler and Lauren, and a few other people I didn't know. That's when I caught site of two pale-faced graceful people dancing in the middle of the floor. Edward and Tanya.
I turned around and for a moment I felt sad that he brought her here. Hurt. But then I realized that he wanted to make me sad, jealous, and hurt so I would come running back to him. It was sick and twisted and it wasn't going to work.
Even if I did feel sad I could never leave Jake. He was my sun, my gravity. I needed him. I felt Jake come up behind me and grab me around the waist.
"Here's your punch." He said as I turned around.
" Thank you." I said peeking him on the lips.
" I think I'm gonna go get you some more punch." He said. And I laughed. That's were I went wrong because Edward must have heard he and me turned to me. His face was much more controlled than it was at the mall today but I could still see the pain behind his eyes.
I quickly turned away but it was to late. He was already walking towards us.
Jake noticed him and I felt him gently start shaking. I took his chin in my hand and made him look me in the eyes. His own eyes were fierce.
" You promised you wouldn't let go of me. I really don't want you guys to fight. Just be as polite as you can and try to get along.?" I said my eyes pleading with him.
When I was done his eyes softened and his shaking stopped.
" OK Bells, for you and you only."
"Thank you." I said before pecking on the lips again.
Then they reached us.
" Hello Bella." Edward said surprised. " I thought you didn't like to dance?"
" Jake took me here for a date. Apparently Alice knew but wanted me to be surprised. That's why we were shopping."
" Well that was nice of her." He said again sounding like it really wasn't.
" Yeah it was." I said getting irritated. Why did he come over here? To get me jealous? If he really thought I was about to get jealous over him and Tanya with my soul mate right next to me then he was out of his mind.
We stood there in an aqward silence for a moment when Jake finally spoke up. "Well it was nice talking to you."
" Yeah, it was. Ummmm, Jacob would you mind if I danced with Bella as a friend of course and you danced with Tanya?" He asked. Was he trying to get Jacob mad? He was really pushing it. I heard Jake take a deep breath.
" Sure." I looked at him.
" You guys need to talk." He whispered in my ear so low I'm not even sure Edward could hear it.
" Thank you. I love you." I said.
I walked over to Edward and Tanya walked over to Jake. I wasn't even bothered by the fact that he was dancing with her. I knew that he would never and could never hurt me like Edward had. I trusted him.
Edward tried to pull me up on his feet but I restrained. He caught on.
" Bella why haven't you come back to me? I love you."
" Then why are you with Tanya?" I asked already knowing the answer to the question.
" Because, I thought that if you thought I had moved on you would get jealous and come back to me but you haven't. A normal girl would."
" Well if you haven't noticed I am not a normal girl. And you are not going to get me back. I found my soul mate. You know I thought it was you for a while when I was with you. I rejected Jake because I didn't want to move on because it would be like cheating on you. But when I found out what you were doing he helped me and comforted me and then he imprinted on me and I couldn't have been happier. So stop trying and be happy with Tanya. Stop trying to get me back and leave me alone because this is really starting to bug me." After my short speech the song ended and I went back to Jacob.
He was standing by the punch bowl.
" Hey."
"Hey." He said grabbing me by the waist.
" So did you have fun dancing with Tanya?" I asked as he pulled me closer.
" Not nearly as much fun as it would be dancing with you." He said pulling me into his chest and onto the dance floor. There was a slow song on so the lights were shut off and the white light bulbs were glowing like stars. The moon casting a silver shadow over everyone's face.
Since we both couldn't dance we just swayed side to side. But just being with Jake beat dancing the best any day.
Jake and I danced together until 11:50p.m. that's when we both noticed the time.
"Well I think it's time to get you home Cinderella." Jake said and I laughed. There were only a few couples left.
" Yeah, before my dress disappears." I said laughing again, and this time Jake joined in.
" Come on." He said leading me to his car. The ride home was silent but quick. When we pulled into my driveway at 11: 58p.m. Jake walked me to the door and then turned to me.
" Thank you for not killing me."
" For what?"
" For taking you to the prom."
" Well, it wasn't as bed as I thought it would be. Especially because I was with you. I had a wonderful time."
" Well, I'm glad you had fun." He said but I could tell something was bothering him.
"What's wrong Jake?"
" Well, I was wondering what you and Edward had talked about."
" Well he asked me why I hadn't gone running back to him, and I said because I didn't love him. He said he wanted me back and admitted that he was only with Tanya to make me jealous so I would come back to him. I told him that you were my soul mate and that I would never come back to him and told him to be happy with Tanya and then the song ended." He got a worried expression on his face.
" Well Bella, I have to be honest with you. Tanya came over and tried to flirt with me but I swear I didn't show any preference. That's why I was over by the punch bowl when you found me. I swear Bells I didn't do anything. Please don't be mad. I think Edward sent her so I would cheat on you or it would seem that way but I didn't fall for it. Please believe me." He said his eyes pleading with me.
I put my hand on his cheek.
" Jacob, I believe you. I know in my heart and soul that you would never do anything to hurt me. I love you Jake, and I know you love me back."
He sighed in relief and kissed me goodnight. I could feel the joy leaking through his lips.
I really and truly loved Jake. He was my sun, my gravity.
OK so it was kind of bad but I'll try to make the next chapter better. Review and give me suggestions for future chapters. I'll try to use them all eventually.
OK well REVIEW plz.=D
