Jemima and Pouncival
Pouncival looked really cute. I had such a huge crush on him and when he asked me to Prom, I was so happy. He told me he had a huge crush on me, too, and now I know we're going to go far with this relationship. He held my hand and we got in line for walk-in. Walk-in was when everyone got in line with their date or friends and someone announced their names. They walked down the red carpet and parents and friends took pictures.
Vicki and Plato were ahead of us but they were so enraptured in each other that they didn't even notice us. I looked to Pouncival, knowing we could look at each other like that one day. We came closer to the carpet and I was growing nervous. They called Vicki and Plato's names, everyone cheering as they strutted down the carpet. Then it was our turn.
"Pouncival and Jemima!" announced the announcer.
We walked down the carpet, everyone cheering since everyone just approved of us so much. I smiled at them and then Pouncival, who was looking at me in a way every girl wanted to be looked at. We entered through the doors and the room was amazing. The lights shone blue and silver and there was a big, fake moon hanging on the wall, sparkling bright. Fake stars hung from the ceiling, glitter on the inside of them so if someone hit it glitter spilled everywhere. The music was playing and immediately Pouncival swung me onto the dance floor where everyone was at, since everyone knew how to dance. He swung me around in a doo-wop fashioned dancing, me giggling the entire time.
"Jemi!" cheered Etcy, coming up to me, looking like she was having the time of her life with Addie, Vicki and Plato.
"Hi guys," I greeted as we moved off the dance floor quickly, not wanting to be in anyone's way.
"Isn't this wonderful?" Vicki said, looking around dreamily, mostly at Plato.
"It's brilliant," I said.
A slow song came on and I wanted to do nothing more than dance with him. He read my mind and pulled me onto the dance floor. He wrapped my arms around me and I rested my head on his chest, draping my arms around his neck. He held onto me in a way that made me feel like he truly wanted to be with me forever, like I was the only thing in the world he wanted.
I looked up at him, resting my chin against his chest. We smiled at each other, and then came that feeling. Butterflies were going all through me and I knew what was going to happen. He leaned down and kissed me. It was so awkward and sweet. It was magical. He let go and we laughed like the kittens we were. The best part was that the night was only beginning.
So when I wrote the chapter where Vicki gets asked to Prom, I wrote "Plato and Vicki" at the top, but I guess it just didn't show up or something. Someone mentioned that but I didn't notice his name wasn't mentioned anywhere! But yes, Plato and Vicki went with each other.
Jemima and Pouncival are just so ridiculously adorable :)
