❁Chapter XXXII: It's just your average American senior prom❁
I groaned when Naomi squealed at more prom dresses.
"Come on! With our gorgeous tans we got from the cruise we can look so sexy in any dress that we try on!" She says happily.
"Naomi, why do you want to shop for dresses the last minute?! Prom is tomorrow." I told her annoyed.
"Because I didn't have any time for shopping for a prom dress." She tells me sighing.
"Well hopefully the good dresses aren't already gone." I tell her.

I was getting my nails done when my phone rings, the Chinese woman doing my nails gives me a glare and I blushed and answered my phone when I find out it was Drew that was calling me.
"Hey what time should I pick you up?" He asks me over the phone.
"How about 5:30?" I ask him.
"Why not five?" He asks me.
"Because that's such a common time for people to get their dates. I just want thirty minutes to be myself before I go out with a cute guy." I
explained nonchalantly.
"Alright then, I'll see you at 5:30." He chuckles.
"See you." I say.
Then I hang up.
"How long do you want it?" The lady impatiently asks me.
I looked at where the scissors were.
"That's long enough." I tell her.
She nods.
"So that was your date?" She asks me.
"Yeah he's just asking me what time to pick me up." I tell her.
"What for?" She asks while focusing on my nails.
"Prom." I tell her.
"What's so special about it? I just stayed home from my prom." She told me.
"It's just your average American prom." I tell her with a chuckle.
"Ah I see." She says with a smile.

"Okay one more picture!" My mom tells me with a squeal.
I groan and Drew just chuckles.
"Mom we have to get going." I muttered.
Then my dad whispers into her ear and she just sighs then nods.
"Okay have fun you two." She says sighing and heading inside the kitchen.
Drew grabs my hand and smiles at me.
"Shall we go?" He asks me.
"We shall." I say.
Then we both walked out of my front door and towards his car. Which he opened the passenger door for me and I thanked him and got inside.

"Now it's time for a slow dance." The deejay explains.
Then that song So Close from Enchanted starts to play.
Drew helped me up from my seat from our table.
"Let's dance." He says.
I chuckled and followed him to the dance floor while holding his hand.
He wrapped both his arms around my waist, and I wrapped my arms around his neck. And he pulled me close to him and we started to sway to the flow of the music.
"This right here, with you. It feels great." He tells me sighing.
"Yeah, this feels right. I'm glad that we're together for this." I say awkwardly.
I'm not so good at this. I mean, I got a boyfriend again but I'm not sure how to be romantic
because I never had guys fall for me because I'm just naturally ugly.
"I love you Carly Lukens." He says quietly.
If I only knew that he actually meant it.
