May,1993~ Kelly's High School
"So Nicole who's taking you to the prom?" I asked
"Mark is, who are you going with?"
"I really don't know"
"The Prom is in 3 days! Your also up for prom queen and you don't even have a date yet! Well what about Dan?" she asked
We started walking toward our next class. "Well we broke up yesterday and he decided to go with Shannon."
"I thought you two were going out again?"
"Well like I said we were but we broke up, it didn't work out again." I sat in my seat. She sat down in front of me and turned around.
"Ever since 9th grade you two have been going out on and off."
"I know that and I didn't tell him yet about what happened between me and David, but now I don't have a reason to, we broke up."
"Oh yeah how are you doing anyway?" she asked concerned.
"Alright.." I tried to change the subject. "Hey Nick is coming home today!"
"By the way how is your brother's group doing?"
"Good, Brian's staying wth us for the weekend, he's cute."
"Yeah he is, but I like that other one, what is it his cousin or something?"
"Um..yeah Kevin"
"Yeah that's it, talk to you after class." she turned around and class started. I couldn't wait until afterwards. I get to see Nick after 2 months. Even though we have different fathers we are as close as a real brother and sister can get.
"Mom! I'm Home!" I screamed when I came in the house.
"She's not home!" I heard someone say from the kitchen. I walked in there was Nick and Brian sitting eating chips and drinking soda.
"Hey there strangers!" I said
"Hey" they said at the same time.
"So how was Europe?" I asked
"It was alright, except we didn't go site seeing, the group isn't doing so good either!" Nick whined.
"Yeah it sucks big time" Brian added.
"Things will get better. We all have problems like me for example..." I drifted off "Oh nevermind you don't wanna hear my problems." I grabbed a soda from the fridge and started walking towards the living room. Nick grabbed my arm. For a 13 year old he was strong.
"Well I want to hear." he said
"Yeah whats the problem maybe we can help." Brian said.
I couldn't tell them that I was pregnant! Mom will tell them anyway I thought to myself. So I had to lie. "Well I'm up for prom queen and I don't have a date." there I though no harm done.
"What about that Dan?" Nick asked.
I love him but must he give me a hard time. I probably won't go to the prom anyway. "Well we broke up..again."
"I see" Nick said
"Enough with my problems, have you seen Mom yet?"
"Yeah she went to pick up everyone else from school..which I thought was your job." Nick said.
"Not anymore I got out of that. I'm going to watch tv." I walked into the living room.
"Jeez I feel bad for your sister." Brian said
"Yeah so do I" NIck said. "But hey what can we do about it? Hey you always said you wanted to go out with her. So here's your chance!"
"I don't even think she likes me."
"Like hell she does!" Nick screamed.
From the living room they heard me say "Watch your mouth Nick!"
"Oh shove it!" he screamed back.
"I'll break you in half!" I said back.
"Nevermind..Go ask her" NIck whispered.
"Well alright." Brian got up and walked into the living room where i was watching tv. "Hey"
"Uh hey"
"So I was wondering if you want to go to the...Prom....with me?" He stuttered.
"With you?"
"Yeah I guess so"
"Sure!" i yelled I jumped up and hugged him. "Thank you!" I ran upstairs. "I have to tell everyone!" I yelled down.
"YES!" Brian yelled. "Finally!"
"Mom how do I look?" It was three days later and I was getting ready to leave. I turned around. I had a black spagetti strap dress on and black velvet shoes. My hair was half up half down.
"You look beautiful!" My mom said getting all teary eyed. "Well C'mon Brian is waiting for you downstairs."
I walked down the stairs. My Dad and brother were talking to Brian in the hallway. He turned around. "Whoa! You look great!"
"You look good too."
"Oh yeah here" He took out a white cousage, (Spell?) and slipped it on my wrist.
"Its beautiful." My Dad took some pictures. "We should get going." Brian said and we left to go to the most horrible time I will ever have.
"Having a good time?" Dana asked me.
"Yeah"
"Brian's really nice. Drew and him are getting along good." Drew is my best friend and her boyfriend. I'm very jealous of her for that.
Brian walked over. "Wanna dance?"
"Yeah" we walked over to the dance floor thats when the music stopped.
The Principal walked on the stage. "Its time to annouce our king and Queen." He grabbed the enevolpe and tore it opened. "There is no surprise here, Its our star quarterback Dan Myers!"
Dan ran up on stage and everyone clapped and cheered while he got crowned.
"Now for your queen Danny" I looked over and seen a whole group of girls crossing their fingers. I really hoped I didn't win. "The queen is...the assistent head cheerleader Kelly Carter!"
I was so pissed off at that moment. "GOD DAMMIT!" I yelled. I walked slowly on stage, and smiled, a very fake smile. Some girl handed me a crown and I put it on my self. To my surprise Dan kissed me I pushed him away. "Fuck you!" I said. "Keep your hands off"
"Damn what crawled up your ass?" He snickered and thought it was funny.
"Now for their dance." the principal looked at us with an unhappy look. I glared at Dan and he glared back.
Dan took my hand and we went to the dance floor. "My don't they look happy?" the principal said.
"Kiss my ass!" Dan said but he made sure he didn't hear.
"I dreaded this moment, I want to get out of here!" I whined to him.
"Oh shut up I did this for you, you know"
"What the hell are you talking about?"
"I know how much you wanted to be queen" I laughed "Well I missed you and I wanted to make you happy you little bitch so I had someone count the ballots and just say it was you."
I stopped dancing and backed away from him. "How could you?"
"Kelly I'm sorry. Lindsay Hudson was supposed to win."
"NO! Your not sorry one bit!" I yelled. Everyone stopped dancing and stared at us. I couldn't take it anymore I ran out of the room and got in the car and drove away. Even though it was Brian's car I didn't care.
