Hey!So sorry about not posting this earlier!My mom punched my dad in the face earlier and I had to tend to them both!it was a total kodak moment too:DPlease comment!
~Demi's POV~
"I need a pencil."He smiled crookedly and I wanted to melt.No Demi!Have the strength!UGH.Why does he have to be so gorgeous?I'm totally losing my mind...oh man...oh man...
"G-Get it from someone else."I stuttered.He cleared his throat.
"I don't want to bother anyone else,"he outstretched his hand towards me,"Can I please have a pencil?I'll give it back.Promise."Oh wow,I swallowed and grabbed a pencil from my bag.
"Here?"I dropped it into his open hand and I heard him try to hide his chuckle.
Resisting him would most definately be hard.
"Thank you Demi."he looked down at his paper then looked back up."And Demi?"
I blinked."Yeah?"
"I need a date for dance,go with me?"I was still trying to process this really happening when my mouth just squeaked a "yes" and I mentally hit myself.
He looked surprised."Really?"
I just stared at him and then inhaled."No,not really.Sorry."I turned away and started the paper.
~Skipping to Sixth Period~
I was thankful that this was one of the classes I didn't share with Joe.But,that also meant Chelsea would be in here.She silently skipped to her seat and plopped down happily.
"Demi?"she batted her lashes at me.
"What Chelsea?"I snapped.
That didn't seem to bother her at all..."I wanted to ask if you wanted to go shopping with me for our dresses?"I sighed and shook my head.
"I'm not going Chelsea."That drawed her back.
"Why?"
"I don't have a date,duh."I turned back towards the board in hopes she'd drop it.I jinxed it.
"Please,Demi,there are plenty of guys here without dates.One just so happens to be Joe..."her pencil moved back and forth across her face.
"So?I don't like Joe like that,"I paused."At least...not anymore."
Her face lightned up."Exactly."What?!She no longer made any sense.
"Chelsea,are you high on shrooms?!"she giggled and pulled out her Red Bull.
"Nope."she popped the "P" in it."I'm just full of energy.Is all."
"They should make it illegal for you to buy those,you're so annoying."I'd admitted.Seriously,sometimes it was as if she was high on crack,or shrooms,or weed,or whatever else there was.
"Please,Demi?"she was on the verge of breaking and I knew it.But then I sighed,regreting being mean to her.She didn't do anything wrong.I gave up.
"Sure,I'll go Chelsea."She squealed in delight.
"Great!I won't let you down!Promise!"her hands clapped together repeatedly.My gut told me this day could only get worse.
It did.
~With Joe/POV~
I silently walked behind Demi while she was at her locker and I covered her eyes making her jump.
"What the hell?!"she whisper-shouted at me.I laughed and sighed,reaching into my pocket,
"What are you doing?"I held up the pencil and she groaned."Really?All for a stupid pencil?!Keep it."
My face fell ever so slightly."Demi,"I sighed."I know you probably hate my guts but-"
"Why would I hate your guts?We were...never really anything special."her voice sounded so secure and the words hurt,bad.
"Please forgive me Dems,nothing happened,I swear!"five seconds later she sighed and closed her locker.
"That doesn't matter Joe,it still hurt..."my heart shattered,and I could tell we both wanted to cry.So much,more than anything in the world,I wanted to just close the space between us and hold her close.But I couldn't-all because of Amelia and my vulnerability to protect myself.UGH.I really was stupid.Demi started to walk away from me but she turned around a bit."Keep the pencil."she gave me a small smile and left.But that small smile gave me hope,I still had a chance,I knew that now.
~At the nearest mall/Demi's POV~
We walked into about eight different stores until she finally smiled in delight.
"Demi!I've JUST spotted my future dress!"her hands went up to her cheeks and she cupped them herself."Let's get to trying them on!Woohoo!"her legs moved so fast that before I'd tried to protest she was g-o-n-e gone.
"This sucks..."I sighed and got to it then.
I think around three hours went by until I finally found the pefect dress.It was red with an interesting bottom and black jacket to go along with it.The whole piece was so me it was scary.Ha.Funny.
"Demi!!!"Chelsea wailed from behind me.I instinctively jumped in the process.
"Jesus,you scared me!"I moaned.
Her head tilted to the left."Jesus didn't scare you...I did."My face fell and she laughed holding a dress up.
