#Chapter 31: A Change in the Program

So, I go to look for a dress. Quite a number of them are very pretty.When I hold them up in front of me, it still feels weird to look at myself and imagine me in them. But…I do want to try them on.However, the price tag is simply too much. Even the seemingly simple ones are $138 to rent, which leaves me overbudget and unable to get literally anything else for this party. Since I’ve no intent to buy, I feel like it’d be a bad idea to try them on.Meanwhile, Hailey finds her dream dress. It’s still royal blue, but instead of airy sleeves, they’re lace and skin-tight. It’s Queen Anne neckline looks great against her skin, and somehow, this dress seems to completely ignore her tennis shoes.“Yes,” she proclaims. “This is definitely the one.”Seeing her in the dress, my heart burns with jealousy. But, that just motivates me, making me want to look just as nice if I can.But, of course, nothing is in my budget still. I even finally admit it to Hailey, and she helps me look around for some

#Chapter32: Young Lady in Red

Mom puts makeup on my face carefully since I’m not used to doing it myself yet. With a last flourish, she finishes my eyeliner and takes a look.“Perfect. I’ll add a little blush and mascara, then put on the cover spray. Remember not to get your face wet afterward if you can help it.”She finishes a little bit later, then takes off the towel we used to protect my dress. I hear her step back, but then she stops moving.My eyes blink open after a bit, ready to ask what was wrong. It’s strange seeing her without my curtain of my bangs since they’re pinned to the side with a homemade rose hairpin.She’s just standing there, a hand to her lips as she gazes down at me with watery eyes.“Oh, honey...”Mom insisted on paying for me to have my hair done before the party. Since it would be something that lasts longer than a dress, I decided it was okay. So, just a few hours earlier, three women at a salon worked hard to tame my wild hair into something much less hectic.They cut my bangs shorte

#Chapter 33: End Goal

“Hey, Alex?”“Hmm?”He drives me home later that night, both of us seeming a bit weighed down with tiredness. Still, he has his full attention on the road, though he only uses one hand.“Did you know Oliver wasss cheating on me?”He pauses for a moment. “Hmm?”“When we first met, you sssaid to go to the parrr-party. So, I went and found Oliver therrre. Did you tell me to go because you knew?”“Ah…yeah. ‘Bout that,” he murmurs, his brows scrunching. “I didn’t know you two were dating at first until you said it then. I did know he was hanging around Danielle and they were kissing, though. So, I put two-and-two together. Still…ah, telling you like that wasn’t a good idea.”He glances at me quickly.“I’m sorry.”But I shake my head.“I forrrgive you. If you hadn’t told me, I would’ve thought he wasss—still being good to me.”“Mm.”“You could’ve been less of an assshole about it, though.”“Hah, yeah.”He drives us back to my place, parking. We sit in silence for a moment, then he turns to

#Chapter 34: My Date in April

Once Alex and the others are off the ice and out their hockey fits, Hailey and I are amongst the people eager to congratulate them.I’m still so hopped up on excitement that the instant I see him, I’m running toward him. He sees me in return, and with that happy grin on his face, he opens his arms. I jump up into them, hugging him around his neck as he spins me around.I’m deaf to anything or anyone else around me, hugging him close as our hearts beat in tandem. Once he stops spinning, I just back up a bit to look at his eyes. Just as I expected, those flecks of gold are gleaming brightly.I don’t even really realize it when I lean in for a kiss, the taste of his tongue savory against my own.We’re so close, we share the same breaths when our kiss finally breaks. His forehead rests against my own as he puts me down.“…Haha, I won,” he chuckles.“Obviousssly, dummy.”It’s only then that I hear the playful taunting from his teammates. But even though it’s embarrassing, I don’t back away

#Chapter 35: Fury to Nowhere

I can’t believe it.I can’t fucking believe it.My hands clench tightly on my steering wheel as I head home, half-eaten bread and butter in my buckled-in takeout box. It’s almost too hard to see the road with how much I’m crying.Am I a fool? Is my life just a big joke to make fun of without letting me in on it?Like, did I do something to deserve this?I just can’t wrap my head ar

#Chapter 36: Gone Boy

My anger has turned into discomfort and anxiety, no longer enraged by Alex standing me up. While it does hurt, I’m starting to think that there may be more to it than I’d expected.When Hailey returns with Lenard, my slowly spiraling thoughts only get worse.“He had a weird look on his face, then kinda walked off. When I went to find him, he was on his phone. Something about him seemed…I dunno. Like, kinda freaked out. He covered it up when he noticed me, but I saw it. And then he said he had to go and told the rest of us to have fun.”“Why didn&

#Chapter 37: Sought But Unfound

Sitting in a room at the police station, the man who interviewed me reenters with some papers in his hand. I’m curled up on a couch there quietly, my mom’s arm around my shoulders as she comforts me.“Right then, Miss Boston, we’ve corroborated your story. Thank you very much for cooperating. I hope you understand,” the officer says, taking a seat opposite to us.I nod my head in reply. After all, I do kinda get why they decided to investigate me just in case.It was very strange how I’d just kinda beelined to the body. Moreover, he’d been b

#Chapter 38: The Cruel Passage of Time

It hadn’t just been that blood was spilled in the forest. No, a small, weak tree had even crashed to the ground, the wood splattered with blood flecks. I found out after taking a look, using my binoculars from my car before going to school.I don’t understand at all, though.There’s no way in the world a wolf would be strong enough to fell a tree. Moreover, the paw prints on the ground seemed entirely too big, more akin to a bear or something. I looked it up on my phone just to check, but while shaped like a dog’s paws, it was just too big.I feel like I unde

#Chapter 39: Back to School

It’s like the world stops. Even the murmuring nearby silences.I almost start crying immediately when I see Alex step out of the car. Blinded by the fact it’s him, I immediately walk over, ready to hug him and kiss him and…Then I take stock of what he looks like, and I pause.He looks somewhat dead, inside and out.His hair has grown a tad longer, and it’s unkempt, very unlike the usual suave curls that would push back on his head. He’s wearing a shabby white t-shirt wi

#Chapter 40: Loneliness

Rita doesn’t leave Alex’s side.Maybe I should actually feel good about that, knowing he has someone to support him when he’s clearly feeling off. He likely needs someone there directly there to help him through whatever’s happening.Still, I can’t deny that it’s painful, watching him go from class to class with her by his side. The students all gawk at his presence, with teachers sometimes talking with him in the class, sometimes moving out to the hall. I hide around corners and in doorways, waiting for the moment he’ll finally be alone so I can try talking with him again.
