Prom

The day of Prom has arrived, you and Tara have found the perfect dresses, Tara decided she'd get ready with you, you picked out this beautiful floor length gown, it has sequins all the way down it and a v neck, it's a Silver coloured gown with light blue sequins, it drapes down you elegantly.

"What if Sam sees you?" You gape at her.

"So, we aren't getting married, it's not bad luck." Tara chuckles.

"I just want today to be special for one of us at least." You remark dejected.

"It should be special for you." Tara gives you a sad smile.

"Yeah because third wheeling with your brother is great." You laugh.

"It could be worse." Tara replied optimistically.

You finish getting ready and head downstairs with Tara, You head down to the kitchen, your mom is beaming at you both. Your mom spends about twenty minutes taking photos of you and Tara in your prom dresses. Finally Sam and Zack join you in the kitchen.

"You look gorgeous." Zack gapes at you.

"Thanks." You blush a little.

Your mom quickly snaps some pictures of you and the boys and you all hurry to climb in the Limo, on your way out you see Nate, dressed extremely smart, he smiles at you and you turn away. You don't react to him, your still mad he betrayed you. You all pile into the Limo, as you're about to drive away, there's a knocking on the window.

"Can I ride with you? My truck broke down." Nate asked, desperation in his voice.

"Your date is so lucky to be going to prom in a truck." Tara mocked.

"I don't have a date she stood me up." Nate replied, he glances at you.

"Fine, if you have to." Sam huffed.

Nate climbed into the car, placing himself in-between you and Zack. Nate and Zack begin nudging each other.

"Dude, space." Zack huffed.

"Shut up." Nate hissed back.

"Can we just have a nice peaceful prom night, please?" You asked.

You arrive at prom, You, Nate, Zack, Sam and Tara all walk in together. Nate clocks someone and starts to look a little shifty. You hold Nate's arm.

"What's wrong? You look like you've seen a ghost." You asked.

"Nothing, I'm fine." He dismisses you.

You look over to where he is looking, you see Taylor and another guy from the football team.

"She ditched you for him?" You asked laughing.

"Sort of, I don't want to talk about it." Nate mumbles.

"We might not be best friends but there has to be a reason you're going to prom stag." You smiled sweetly.

Nate sighs. He pulls you out of earshot of the others.

"My date wasn't Taylor." He remarked.

"Who was it, Madison?" You asked.

"No! You, I wanted to take you but you chose Zack." Nate replied, sadness in his voice.

"It wasn't that simple, I'm in a difficult situation with Sam." You feel guilty for ditching him.

"Screw Sam, you're 17, you can do what you want." Nate whisper yells.

"Not according to Sam." You replied, sadly. Suddenly Zack joins your side.

"What's your problem?" Nate snapped at him.

"You, you're my problem." Zack spits.

You head home to escape from the bickering boys and the oblivious Zack who was pointless as a prom date, you spent more time with Nate anyway, you head upstairs, sad that Sam had to ruin your prom, you throw yourself into bed. A few days pass after prom, you hear nothing from Zack, it's almost time for graduation, you decide to head out for a walk. As you're walking down the street you spot Zack and Taylor. You walk past Taylor and Zack, Zack tries to get your attention.

"Olivia!" He yelled out to you.

You walk off, paying him no attention. You walk past Zack and Taylor, not saying a word. Before long you're back at home preparing for graduation. He left you at prom and then had the audacity to try and speak to you with Taylor! 

You're reminiscing about school and memories, you feel a tear roll down your cheek, despite the bad memories there is still some good there, you gently place all the momentos from school into a box, pre pick out your graduation outfit and place it to one side ready for graduation.
