Since i went over a month without updating awhile ago, I'm updating faster to make up for it. Ive been updating every three days but I'm too excited to wait to post this chapter. Here's a super long chapter because i love all my readers! Let me know what you think. ♥️

The rest of the week passed rather uneventfully surprisingly with no retaliation from Hannah. Though i did receive a lot of death glares and nasty commentary, it was well worth it. Every morning it was priceless watching someone drop her off at school because her car was being fixed.

Here i am on Friday night getting ready for Winter formal. Much to Cole's dismay, i made him get ready at his house. He put up at good fight, ill give him that but i want my dress, hair and makeup to be a surprise.

After over a month of hanging in my closet, i could finally wear my dress. Thanks to Jordan i will look amazing. If i didn't know from experience, id guess Jordan was gay. He has a better taste in style than most girls and has a feminine side but i suppose most people don't see that.

I curled my hair and pinned it all up loosely with a few pieces falling around my face. My make up was smokey with a blended mixture of browns and golds. The gold made my eyes pop and look really green. Cole would be here shortly. I told him 6:30 but knowing him he will be early to try and catch me off guard. I slipped on my floor length emerald dress and i felt beautiful and elegant.

For shoes i went with a nude peep toe heel. Simple and not over the top. Only going to a high school dance after all. This will be my first high school dance and as silly as it sounds I'm actually nervous. I've seen plenty of movies with high school dances but i still don't know what to expect. For one last touch i put on a deep red lip stick and dabbed a little gold sparkly lip gloss over the top.

A knock sounded at the door so i took a couple deep breaths before walking down the hall. I knew Cole already let himself in as usual.

When he seen me i stopped dead in my tracks. The way he was looking at me took my breath away and made my heart race. I shouldn't be feeling this way its wrong. It doesn't help that I can't deny how sexy a man looks in a tuxedo, especially Cole. He was looking at me like he'd never seen something so beautiful. I had to look away because I didn't like the way it made me feel and at the same time i did. As always my emotions are conflicting.

"You're by far the most beautiful woman i have ever laid eyes on." His voice came out barely louder than a whisper. Immediately i blushed.

His opinion has come to mean a lot to me when it shouldn't matter at all. I shouldn't even give a damn about anything regarding him, but yet here i stand. The guy who made my life hell is standing here worshipping the ground i walk on and I'm somewhere between over the moon and wanting to cry because he can't see that I'm that same girl he beat senseless. Shows me how much he never even cared when he was busy inflicting pain. He never seen me as another human being and now he places me at a level worthy of being worshipped. He will be in for a shock when he puts things together if i don't tell him first.
