“Prom Night”
“….. I can’t stop thinking about my Prom night. I didn’t have a boyfriend, so I went with a friend I had since Kindergarten. There was absolutely nothing between us. I knew he liked me, but, I honestly didn’t feel “that” way about him. His name is Alex. We went with three other couples. All my girlfriends with their boyfriends.
I know Alex felt left out, because we were all friends that hung out on weekends and such, and they all didn’t really know Alex, besides seeing him in school. He was kind of a nerd. But, he did live by me all my life, and we sorta grew up together. Even though we have drifted apart the last few years. I had my friends, and he had his. It was really my parents idea that I should go to the prom with Alex. They were thinking that he probably wouldn’t get to go, and he’d miss out on one of the most memorable times of his life. They kinda guilt tripped me into asking him. Oh, well. A lot of girls I know, would of said no way, but I’m really not like that.
