~Months later~
Through the next days, weeks, months, Nick and I grew really close; we'd go out together as friends but deep down inside of me I knew that I wanted more and he knew that too Despite our friendship sometimes you could feel a sexual tension going on between us and Crys was always telling me.
"You're crazy Crys, he only wants me as a friend. That's all" I said.
"I've seen the way he looks at you. He likes you, believe me, those looks are not from friend to friend, they're something else" Crystal said.
"I don't know but I still like him more than I friend" I sighed. That night I couldn't sleep thinking of what Crystal told me, Nick and I? It wasn't that absurd but Nick was like a distant star for me, unreachable.
"Hey Meg" Nick greeted me "What's up? You look tired" he asked.
"I didn't sleep well last night. What about you? You look pretty happy" I said.
"Well, I have great news, but I'll tell you the day of the prom on Friday night; now I have something to ask you. Would you go with me to the prom?" he asked almost pleading. My heart jumped inside me, I couldn't believe it Nick asked me to the prom.
"Yes, I'll go with you" I answered smiling.
"I'll pick you up 7:30 on Friday. Is that OK?"
"Yes, that's fine". I was going to the prom with Nick!!!!
I spent the next two days searching for the perfect dress with my mom and Crystal, even though Crys already had her dress; and we got the perfect one. Perfect color, perfect fit, everything was perfect.
~The night of the Prom, 7:30~
The bell ring and my mom opened it.
"Good night, Ms. Harrison" Nick said to my mom.
"Good night, Nick. Come in, Meghan should come down in a sec" but when she said that I was in the middle of the stairs.
"Hi, Nick" I said as I noticed he was staring at me while I finished walking down the stairs.
"Meghan, you you look gorgeous" he said. I was wearing a backless long pastel green dress and my hair was up in a cute bun.
"Well, Nick you don't look bad either" I replied.
"Ok, photo time!!!" my mom said getting the camera and taking a couple of pictures of us.
"Mom, stop it. We have to go" and we left my house and headed to the school gym.
