THE DAY BEFORE PROM-
I walk down the halls with Micha, Allyson, and Daisy.
Today, I am wearing blue skinny leg jeans, brown boots, a grey tank tock, long, crochet, fingerless, grey gloves, I have my hair in a ponytail and I am wearing a panda hat. (Picture on profile)(I love pandas! They're beautiful!)
Allyson is wearing brown loafers, a long-sleeved button up white blouse, a blue plaid skirt, blue knee highs, and a blue sweater vest. Her hair is half up, half down, and she has a blue bow in it.
Daisy is wearing blue jeans, a black tank top, a pink hoodie vest, and a Hershey kiss necklace. Her hair is in a messy bun, and she has on sparkly pink converses.
Micha is wearing black jeans, black boots, an off the shoulder, short sleeved black shirt and black fishnet gloves. Her hair is in a curled ponytail over her right shoulder.
We're walking down the hall to glee, when Embry Call, Jacob Black, and Paul Mraz walk by and throw milkshakes at us.(A/N I chose that because my friend through one at me last week, but I have never had a slushy thrown at me.)
''Losers,'' Jacob laughs as they keep walking.
And now we're freezing, and covered in a delicious dairy treat that has turned its back to us, freaking traitor.
When we finally make it to glee practice, Seth, Jared, Anthony, and Mikey rush to us.
''Whoa, what happened,'' Jared asks as he wipes some of the bits of strawberries from my face.
''Jacob, Embry, and Paul freaking through milkshakes at us,' I respond.
A low growl rumbles in Seth and Jared's chest, and Micha and I mouth for both of them to calm down.
''Girls, what happened'' Mr. Jenks asks, walking into the room and holding a cup of coffee.
''Nothing, we just got milkshakes thrown at us No big deal,'' I say.
''It is big deal,'' Jared tells me seriously,''You cannot walk around in those clothe for the rest of the day, it's only the second class period.''
''He's right girls. You'll have to wear your gym clothes.''
After we change, Mr. Jenks sits us down to talk.
''So, as you know, next week is sectionals. And you plan to sing Don't Stop Believing by Journey, right?''
We all nod, even Embry (who we unwillingly let in the glee club after our Lady Gaga performance).
''You need to decide on another song,'' Mr. Jenks says then.
''Eew,'' Kayla whines.
''Because,'' he ignores her,''The requirements include a two song minimum.''
''What song are we singing,'' Justin asks.
''Well...I was thinking you'd sing two more. Rain on My Parade, and Don't Stop Believing''
''Really?'' Mikey asks then.
''Yes. ''
Before I know it, the bell rings and we're all going to our classes.
''I'll see you at lunch, ''Jared tells me, unwillingly letting go of my hand so that he can go to history class and I can go to English.
''Okay,'' I smile before kissing him on the cheek and walking towards the other direction.
''Is Taylor helping you get ready for prom,'' I ask Micha when she walks by my side to English.
''Probably,'' she says.
''Has she met Seth,'' I ask.
''Yes. And she threatened to kick his ass if he ever hurt me,'' she laughs then.
Yea. Taking pictures for prom is definitely going to be amazing.
DAY OF PROM-
I take a step back to stare at myself in the mirror.
My dress flows over my body perfectly, making every curve noticed. My silver shoes fit my feet perfectly, and my hair is in a curled ponytail that flows over my shoulder gracefully, secured with a flower clip that matches my dress.
''You look great, Kim,'' Gina says from her spot on Micha's bed.
''Thanks,'' smile before sitting at Micha's vanity to put my makeup on.
Micha walks in then.
Her dress goes perfectly with her coppery complexion, and her hair falls perfectly down her back in soft curls, complete with a silver comb tucked neatly in the side. She has on white heels, and her makeup looks natural.
''Micha, you look amazing,' I smile before hugging her.
''Thanks so do you.'''
''ComE on downstairs, girls! I want pictures of you.
We pose for our mom.
And then the doorbell rings.
''I've got it,'' Gina smiles before bouncing to the door.
Sometimes I am just so jealous of how cut she is. She has on blue skinny leg jeans a baby pink shirt, and pink heels.
''Well don't you two look handsome,'' she laughs before stepping aside to let in Jared and Seth.
And I have to admit that, standing there with a black tuxedo and dress shoes and his hair every bit unruly and somehow orderly as it is on any normal day...Jared looks like a teenage dream.
''Kim,'' e smiles as he steps up to me,''You look absolutely breath taking.''
He kisses my forehead as I return his compliment my voice revealing how dazed I still am.
After moving our eyes away from each other, something better said than done once we get lost in each other's eyes we notice my mom staring at us.
''Kimberly...why didn't you tell me you were going to the prom with Jared,'' she sneers through clenched teeth.
''Mom...I love him. And he loves me.''
She sighs and shakes her head, giving me her best it's-just-teenage-infatuation-and-it-will-never-last look.''
Jared and I do our best to ignore her wary stare as he puts the beautiful orange corsage on my wrist. I pin his boutonniere to his tuxedo jacket.
''Okay, now let me get a picture of all four of you, Ms. Albright smiles.
We smile at the camera, and she snaps about five pictures.
''Oh, you two are going up so quickly,'' she gushes to Micha and me,'I remember when you two used to run through the sprinklers together.''
''Mom, that was yesterday'' Micha smiles.
Ms. Albright waves her hand dismissively,''Oh details, details. Now, you guys have fun.''
We assure that we will before walking out to Jared's car.
I can hear the music before we even walk into the gym. It's loud, blasting through the walls.
Jared holds the door for me, and Seth holds the door for me.
It isn't long before a slow song comes on, and my head is on Jared's shoulder with my arms wrapped around his neck. His hands are on my waist, and we're just swaying back and forth to Never Knew I Needed by Ne-Yo.
For the way you changed my plans
For being the perfect distraction
For the way you took the idea that I have
Of everything that I wanted to have
And made me see there was something missing, oh yeah
For the ending of my first begin
(Ooh, yeah yeah, ooh, yeah yeah)
And for the rare and unexpected friend
(Ooh, yeah yeah, ooh, yeah yeah)
For the way you're something that I'd never choose
But at the same time, something I don't wanna lose
And never wanna be without ever again
You're the best thing I never knew I needed
So when you were here I had no idea
You the best thing I never knew I needed
So now it's so clear, I need you here always
It reminds me of Jared in so many ways. We changed each other's plans. Jared is the perfect distraction for me whenever life gets to hectic for me to handle on my own.
I never thought Jared would ever notice me, so it is certainly unexpected that he did. He's so sweet, and I love him more than he could ever possibly know.
I love when he laughs he gets dimples. I love how his eyes light up when he smiles. I like how he knowingly pouts when he is confused and leans his head so that his cheek rests against his hand.
In short, I love the little things about him that no one else seems to notice.
I knew I liked Jared. Actually...I just knew I was at last infatuated with him.
But I didn't think I'd ever need him like this. Like I need air.
Like I need him to breath.
Imprint or not, I'm in love with Jared and we are getting married
And I know Jared feels the same way. He loves me. He tells me all of the time.
I smile as he kisses my head, whispering that he loves me in my ear as we stray back and forth.
''I love you, too,' I sigh before snuggling closer to my boyfriend.
And nothing will ever change that.
SPOV-
Micha's arms tighten around me as the fast song slowly drifts into a slower song.
When I was younger I saw my daddy cry
and curse at the wind.
He broke his own heart and I watched
as he tried to reassemble it.
And my momma swore
that she would never let herself forget.
And that was the day that I promised
I'd never sing of love if it does not exist.
But darling,
You are the only exception.
You are the only exception.
You are the only exception.
You are the only exception.
''You know that's exactly how I feel about you'' she whispers in my ear.
My arms tighten around her waist, keeping her close to me.
''I know,'' I respond before kissing her on the forehead.
''I love you so much,' she whispers.
''I love you, too,''' I remind her.
She looks absolutely beautiful, with her jet black hair framing her gorgeous face and her eyes closed as we swayed to the music.
''Johns staring at you,'' I growl.
''Because I am with the best boyfriend in the room and not him.''
''I can't believe he ever hurt you,'' I whisper before kissing her shoulder.
''And I can't believe we fell in love,'' she whispers. ,''You and I belong together.''
I kiss her on the head,''I promise you, I will never hurt you. I will never leave you.''
''I know,'' she whispers before kissing me gently.
The kiss is amazing, and soon Micha is the only thing that matters in my world as the rest of the world seems to drift away so that I can focus on her soft, warm lips moving against mine.
We pull apart, and she smiles as she lays her head on my shoulder.
Imprint or not, I will always be i love with Micha King.
