Homecoming Novels & Stories

It is always hard to come back after a week of relaxation. The principals muffled voice sounds above us, rambling about Homecoming, the next football game, college visits, and other events I would love to forget about. Being in the school is enough for me already. I could live without the stares and whispers. You'd think after an entire quarter that people would get over the fact that I am indeed back in Coldgrove.

It's been three years since she passed away and I would give anything just to talk to her again. Looking down the beach I can see the huge bonfire burning about a mile away in the distance. At the end of every summer, before school starts back up we have a full moon party on the beach. There are bonfires, dancing, and giant glow in the dark mason jars mixed full of 7 different flavors of rum. We start walking in that direction, "I didn't realize they'd be playing tonight." She whispers, squeezing my hand, and laughing excitedly.

I heard Ashely say. "Yeah, it's okay," I heard Natalie say. I stared at them. Hmm, I thought. I know there is something they are not telling me. I can tell something is off. But, oh well. We should not let this beat us down. " Okay, classmates, today is the first day to buy your homecoming tickets. So, don't wait too long, or you won't have your tickets and get to dance the night away with your honey," I heard a sweet voice say over the announcer common in the office.

Jia handed the phone to Vero and said, “You’re not in the class group, aren’t you?” “No. What’s going on?” While asking, Vero read the message displayed on Jia’s phone screen. Simultaneously, with Vero reading the contents of the message, Jia conveyed what was written inside. “Lev is inviting all the students from our batch to Henry Deammone’s homecoming party tonight.”

Raven The much-anticipated homecoming week fell upon us and after a long week of series of events, the homecoming dance was taking place tonight. The school was packed with past students who were eager to come back to their alma mater. My dorm was rowdy with girls getting ready and pumped up about the homecoming dance. Clarissa had sent me an expensive striped jumpsuit, knowing that I hated wearing dresses. It was breathtakingly beautiful, with intricate shimmery threads and sequins running down the sides.

Looking up, I saw her talking to a certain white haired and I smiled and walked up to them, “hi.” “You finally showed up,” Christy said while Adrian only smiled and kissed my cheek, he started doing that on Wednesday and I liked it, a lot. “What’s up?” I asked. “Nothing much, just telling Adrian about our plan today.” “Are we still going ahead with that? Can’t we go on Monday?” I tried one last time. “Girl, homecoming is on Wednesday, by Monday, they won’t be good dresses in any shop and we need to look our best.”

Evie smiled at him and he couldn’t help but smile back. The visitors won the coin toss and elected to defer. Then the game started and the first half went quick and the Roosevelt Bears were up fourteen to ten. Eliza was crowned Freshman Duchess during homecoming ceremonies. Two more of Evie’s students were in the court and she cheered for them just as loudly. “Ladies and gentlemen, your homecoming court!” came over the loudspeaker. Once the cheering and foot stomping died down, the court left the field. He then started with the four elementary schools and began announcing the favorite teachers.

I prayed he didn’t see, then again, what did I care? “Jamie?” Callie called at the lockers. “Has anyone seen Jamie?” I sighed and turned the corner. “Oh, there you are!” She exclaimed, back to her normal peppy self. “We have to get into homecoming prep this weekend.” “You do know homecoming isn’t for another two months, right?” I pressed my water bottle to my lips, taking long sips of water. “Whether it’s two months or next year we need to have it planned, Jamie.” She put her hands on her hips for emphasis. “Homecoming is everything! We need to have it perfected now so nothing can go wrong later.”

"Oh, that'd be great!" On the way back, Angela looked up information about Westbridge High School online. The results showed that their homecoming event was in three days. The school's principal had invited many well-known alumni, as well as several prominent figures from Eldmere City. Many of these attendees were shareholders of the school or influential individuals in their respective fields. "The pianist, Sophia Blake, will be attending too." Angela was a bit surprised when she saw the name. "It's just a publicity stunt with self-interest. Do you really think those people care about a school's homecoming?" Dexter glanced at h

However, Suzy slammed her utensils down. "Henry, is this really how your family treats me? I'd be better off going home for the holidays." My brother was quick to smooth things over. "Suzy, it's pitch-black outside, where could you possibly go?" Mom chimed in quickly, "Yeah, Suzy, don't pick a fight with her. She hardly ever comes home, just for New Year's. They can crash in the guest room, and you guys take the master."
