Chapter 16 Love Story

Romeo, take me somewhere we can be alone
I'll be waiting, all there's left to do is run
You'll be the prince and I'll be the princess
It's a love story, baby, just say yes

Romeo, save me, they're trying to tell me how to feel
This love is difficult, but it's real
Don't be afraid, we'll make it out of this mess
It's a love story, baby, just say yes

Okay that was it. Just a ribbon and then the dress would be finished. I was excited. It wasn't that it was the first dress for me to finish, but it was the first dress I didn't make for myself.

No, this one was for Caroline. I didn't feel to make her one earlier, because I just didn't have a lot of experience and didn't want it to get ugly. So I've waited. And now I made this.

Care didn't know about the dress. I was afraid it wouldn't be as I imagined and that I couldn't give it to her. But now, when I looked at the dress in front of me, I felt positive she would like it.

I had had her measures, because I practice taking them with her.

'' That's an amazing dress Elena.''

I looked around to see Mrs. Flowers standing there. She looked up and down the dress and smiled.

'' Thank you Mrs. Flowers.'' I smiled brightly. I always felt great when she complimented my work. She did it often with me, but still.

'' But Elena, ''

She looked at me worried. No, what was wrong. She just said it was good. What would come now?

'' I think, you took the measures wrong. It looks a bit short. And I don't think this color will suit you.''

She still looked worried, but also apologizing. My face lightened up and I smiled again.

'' I agree with you, that dress won't fit me. But that's because it's not for me. It's for my best friend, Caroline.''

Now Mrs. Flowers face also lightened.

'' Caroline is this cheeleader friend of yours, the one with blonde hair, isn't she?''

I nodded.

'' Than I think this dress will suit her perfectly. If you want you can take a photo of it now, for your folder and then take it to her.''

Now I smiled even brighter. Normally we had to leave the clothes here for at least half a week after finishing, so that Mrs. Flowers could look at them. But that would be the best surprise, if I could give it to Caroline now.

'' Are you sure?''

'' Yes I am. Now take that photo and give the dress to your friend!''

I nodded and hurried to take a photo. I had to remember that I would need to take a picture of Caroline in the dress, too.

After taking the photo, I packed the dress in a bow and ran to my room.

'' Caroline?''

She looked up from the work she was doing and saw my big smile and the box in my hands.

'' Elena, that's so unfair. You have a new dress again, which is probably amazing. And what do I have? Homework.''

She pouted and looked adorable.

'' So as you are so busy, you don't want to see your new dress?''

She glared at me with bright eyes.

'' What do you mean with my dress?''

'' I mean exactly what you think. I made a dress for you.''

Our smiles grew bigger at the same time. And then Caroline screamed in a loud pitch, jumped up from her seat and came over to me. When she hugged me, I really couldn't breathe anymore, but only for a few seconds. When she let go of me, her face glowed.

'' Can I see it now, please Elena?''

'' Of course.''

So I opened the box and she screamed again. This time even louder.

'' Elena this is so beautiful. I'm going to try it on okay?''

She went to the bathroom before I could even nod.

I think she changed as quick as never before. And when she came out, she looked stunning.

The light blue of the dress suited her perfectly. The top of the dress was really tight and also at the bottom the dress was tight when it ended on her thighs. In between it was a bit loose, but not that much. The dress stress all her curves and made her look sexy. But because of the big ribbon on her back, it also fitted perfectly to Caroline's sweet side.

When I looked back to her face she had tears in her eyes. She ran back to me and hugged me again.

'' Thank you Elena, thank you so so much. I love it and I love you. Thank you.''

I hugged her back.

'' You're welcome. And I love you, too Care.''

I smiled at her widely and then I remembered something.

'' Would you mind if I took a picture of you in that dress for my folder?''

'' Are you kidding? You can take a thousand pictures of me in that dress.''

She giggled.

After I took out my camera and she did her make up and hair look even more incredibly we started the shooting. After about one hour of taking amazing, funny and childish photos of Caroline in the dress and also sometimes me, Caroline's fell down. I immediately noticed.

'' Caroline what's wrong?''

'' I just realized I now have this amazing dress, but no occasion to wear it.''

She pouted and I started to laugh.

'' Caroline, there is always a party somewhere, you will get your chance.''

And in the exact moment our phones both beeped. I had a new message from Damon:

Party at my house on Saturday after the game!

My smile grew wide.

'' Caroline, I think there is your occasion.''

Thursday, 28/08/2010, 8:34 am, my room

What the hell? Who the hell was calling me at 8:30 in the morning. It wasn't like that I wanted to enjoy my last week of holidays.

I looked at the caller ID. Bonnie.

'' Bonnie, do you know what time it is? Why are you even awake at this time?''

'' Good morning to you too Elena. Did you already check your mail?''

Her voice sounded happily, even enthusiastically. Okay, she was more of a morning person than me, but still.

'' Bonnie, why the hell should I have checked my mail. I was happily asleep, before you decided to disturb that by calling me. So I'm not that awake right now and because of that just spill out what you wanted to say.''

I was still lying under my covers. Hopefully I could fell back to sleep after we finished.

'' Okay Elena. I am sorry. But my time table was in the mail and I wanted to check if we have any courses together. But I think that you're in a horrible mood so just call me later.''

What our time tables? We talked about this since we've known each other. It was always our dream to go the same high school, in the same classes and play basketball together. And this was our chance. Freshman year would change everything for us. We would finally be able to do everything together, including school.

'' No Bonnie, I'm sorry. I just didn't get much sleep last night. I shouldn't have snapped at you like this. How about I get changed and you come over so we can compare our time tables?''

'' Okay, I'll be at your house in 15 minutes. Ciao Lena.''

'' See you Bon-Bon.''

As soon as she hung up I got up and walked over to my closet. I had my Mum take me shopping last week to buy proper clothes for highschool. I even got her to buy me some heels, but I had to promise not to tell my Dad. For him, I was still the little princess like when I was five.

I chose some blue shorts and a light red top. Then I went downstairs, trying not to wake Jer. I would kill me if I'd disturbed him this early. I didn't bother eating breakfast, but instead walked directly to the mail. There were about ten letters. Mostly bills or other stuff for my parents.

When I just found the letter from school I saw Bonnie walking towards me with a bright smile on her face and an exactly same looking envelope like I had in her had.

'' Hi Lena, are you awake now?''

'' Hi Bonnie, sorry for earlier, but you know I hate mornings.''

I hugged her tight.

'' So did you open it yet?''

I shook my head.

'' No, I just found it the very second. Let's go inside.''

After going inside we were both a bit nervous. What if we didn't have any course together. We both felt a bit uncomfortable and so we decided to have breakfast first, which in our case was just some chocopops with milk.

'' I think it's time. How about I open mine now and read it out loud and you then tell me if you have the same or not?''

Bonnie nodded opening her envelope again and taking out her time table. I did the same.

'' Okay for the first period I have advanced math.''

'' Elena, I'm not that good in math and you know it. I have Spanish. In the second period I have History and you?''

It took us 15 more minutes to find out that we only had P.E. and Literature together. We were both a bit disappointed, but I tried to lighten the mood.

'' We just have to make it both into the team, okay? Promise me Bonnie we will both make it.''

'' I pinky promise.''

'' Elena, hurry!''

'' I don't have anything to wear.''

I felt defeated and pouted at her. She was standing there in her blue dress and I was standing here still in my underwear.

'' Elena, you have like 100 dresses, just pick one so I can do your hair and make up. I don't want to get there to late and I know that you're not able to do it yourself, so please.''

I rolled my eyes at her and looked back into my closet. She was right, I had a lot dresses. I just didn't feel like wearing one of those.

'' Caroline, please help me. I cannot go in my underwear.''

She smirked.

'' I think the guys would like it.''

I rolled my eyes at her again. This time annoyed.

Despite that Caroline came over and looked into my closet.

'' No, no, no, no.'' She looked through my dresses and then stopped.

'' This one!''

She picked out a dress I had made about two weeks ago. It was black, had a wide neckholder and was really tight at the top. Around the waist it loosened a bit, but not much. It was one of the shortest dresses I had and had a zipper at the front.

I loved the dress, but I didn't feel confident enough to wear it.

'' Caroline I don't know. Don't you think it's a bit too short?''

'' Elena, have you seen your legs lately? Or your whole body? You can wear everything. So please just take it on and then I'll can do my part.

I did as I was told and then she did my hair and make-up, when I noticed I didn't have any shoes on.

I looked back into my closet and immediately found my favorite 6 inch high heel ankle boots.

Then I looked in the mirror. I had to admit I looked stunning. The dress showed all my curves perfectly and my legs looked amazingly long in the heels and the dress.

Caroline had done an amazing job. The make up was light and she had just emphasized my eyes. My long, brown hair was in a messy ponytail. It looked as it was made without thinking about it but still fitted the dress perfectly. Caroline really knew what she did. Having make up and hair design in school really helped.

'' Thank you Care.'' I smiled.

'' You're welcome, but can we finally go now please?''

I nodded, took my purse and we went to Damon's house.

I'm so sorry there isn't any Damon in this chapter, but I felt like I needed just this. And also the next chapter will be full of him and his party. I'm not sure if I should write more about Bonnie, I want to make her part of the story but I somehow don't like her, so I'm really not sure.

I'm sick at the moment, and if I'm unlucky you get lucky. Because when I'm not better till Monday I won't be able to go to school, so I'd have a lot time to write. But I really hope I feel better then.

I hope you all have a great weekend.

R&R as always.
