I stood in my bedroom, getting ready for anti-prom. My hair was done, my dress was on, and my makeup was perfect. Yet, I was still staring at myself in the mirror, checking every little thing to make sure it was really perfect.

"Big night tonight... don't wanna blow it..." I spoke to myself, "Where are my shoes!?" I began looking around my room for a pair of plain black flats, "Oh god, where are they!?" I went through random piles of clothes and anywhere else.

"Mom!?" I cried, unsure if she was even home.

"Yeah?" She responded.

"Have you seen my black flats!?" The door then opened and she stood there.

"Why're you dressed like that?"

"Anti-prom..."

"Oh, right, are they by the front door?" I ran out of my room, down the short hallway and into the living room where my father blankly watched the television. My eyes darted to the front door where they neatly sat.

"Found them!" I said, quickly slipping them on, "He's gonna be here any minute..."

"Who?" She asked, now standing in the living room.

"Pete..." I spoke, "He's my date..."

"Pete? You never told me about a boy named Pete. What's he like?"

"He's..." And in that moment I realized I barely had an answer, "He's rich..."

"And...?" I just shrugged, "You're going with a boy you barely know!?" I shrugged once again, "Why don't you go with that other boy... Frank? He's nice." And I got a sting in my chest, then heard a knock at the door.

"I dunno mom, I gotta go..." I opened the door and quickly walked out.

"Bye, don't stay out too late!" I heard behind me before closing the door. When I turned around I found Pete standing there in a very classy suit.

"Hey..." I spoke.

"Hi," He paused for a moment and gazed at the little trailer in front of him, "This is your house?"

"Yeah..."

"It's so small..." He spoke as if he had never seen a trailer park before.

"Well I mean, I am poor..." I giggled, "C'mon, let's go."

"Alright," He gazed back at me, and took my hand.

"Wait, this is your car?" I asked as he led me to a fire engine red Ferrari.

"Yeah," He opened the door for me before getting in on the driver side, "You look really... nice..." He awkwardly spoke, now driving.

"Thank you..." The rest of the car ride was filled with a terribly awkward silence until we got to the skatepark.

We didn't speak a single word to each other as we got out of the car, and walked to the park. A good amount of people were already there, talking and dancing. There was a boom box set on one of the wooden tables blasting music, another one with a cooler with, what I could only assume to be, alcohol inside.

I wanted to pull away from Pete to hang out with my friends. But I restrained myself. As much as I didn't care to be there with him, I couldn't just ditch him.

"Who the hell are these people?" I heard Pete ask.

"...my friends..." I said, glancing at him.

"Oh..." He began, "They seem... like an interesting group of people..."

"Pete, you can say weird. We're used to it. Now c'mon, let's dance!" I dragged him over by the boom box where we began dancing.

"Is Daisy here?" He asked, I shrugged.

"Haven't seen her..." I said, "Why?"

"No reason..." I sent him a curious look.

"I'm gonna get a drink, want one?"

"Nah..." I walked away, thinking about the question he had asked.

"Y/n..." I heard as soon as I made it to the cooler. When I turned, I found Frank in a suit a size too small for him with a rip in the shoulder. His hair was done nicely as well.

"Hey Frank..."

"You..." He began, gazing at me, "You look amazing. So beautiful."

"Thank you, you look pretty amazing yourself."

"Thanks..." He spoke, I grabbed a beer from the cooler before he began talking again, "Where's Pete at?"

"I left him on the dance floor to get a drink."

"Oh," He chuckled. Then, suddenly, a girl grabbed Frank's shoulders from behind him, startling him.

"Boo!"

"Oh, hey..." As she came out from behind him I realized it was the girl from before. Oh no...

"You walked away while we were dancing. I thought I lost you," She giggled, then gazed at me, immediately sending a glare, "Who's this?"

"Y/n, she's... she's one of my friends."

"Oh..." She spoke, analyzing me, "I like your dress, looks affordable..." She said with a smile. No... I'm not gonna do this...

"Okay..." And I walked away. My heart hurt immensely as I looked for Pete. It didn't take me too long to find him sitting alone at one of the tables, bored.

"Hey," I sat beside him.

"Hey..." He spoke. I bit my lip as I sat there, desperately trying to keep myself from breaking. Then, I remembered the drink in my hand, and took a swig. When I sat it down, Pete took a drink as well.

"I thought you didn't want one."

"I've changed my mind..."

"Y/n!" Both Pete and I gazed towards the sound of the voice. Daisy was walking towards us looking absolutely stunning.

"Daisy..." Pete spoke.

"Oh, hey Pete..." She greeted with a sense of sadness. Pete immediately wrapped his arm around me, then pulled me in close. When she saw this, she just walked away. As soon as she was out of sight, he pulled away from me.

"What the fuck was that?"

"What?" He asked.

"Whatta ya mean 'what?' You've never held me like that."

"I dunno, I just wanted too..." But something didn't sit right with me. He was hiding something.

"Wanna dance?" He asked.

"Sure..." I drank the last of my beer before getting up and dancing with him. Every now and then he'd pull me close to him. I found this odd as he'd push me away after just a few seconds. Every time Daisy goes by, he pulls me in... oh my god...

I then grabbed his hand and dragged him away from the group of dancing teenagers.

"What the hell is up with you!? Every time Daisy comes by, you act all weird."

"No I'm not!"

"Yes you are! What the hell is going on!?" I asked.

"Nothing is going on..."

"Oh bullshit!" A lot of people were staring at us, "Are you into her!? Or something!?"

"No! That's the complete opposite of how I feel towards her! I fucking hate that girl!"

"Then why are you with me? She's my best friend... are you trying to hurt her!?" He didn't say anything, "You've just been using me... do you even like me?" I didn't get a word from him, "Say something!"

"Fine! Ya got me! I only went to this stupid thing with you because I wanted Daisy off my goddamn back! Is that what you want!?"

"Wow," I quietly spoke, gazing at the ground, and letting out a nervous giggle, "You really are a douche bag. Maybe you should be with Daisy, you two deserve each other."

"Fuck you!" He cried.

"I just said, you and Daisy deserve each other. Not me and you." Everyone let out an 'oooooo'. Pete then struggled to come up with something else to say but couldn't come up with anything at all. He just stood there, embarrassed.

Everyone slowly dispersed as I walked closer to Pete.

"Y'know," I began, "Daisy really likes you. I genuinely think you should give her a chance."

"No way..."

"Well I'm not staying with you."

"Fine..." He walked off. I went back over to the cooler, grabbed two beers, sat by myself, and drank. As my head felt fuzzy my feelings slowly felt less and less significant.

"Y/n! There you are..." Daisy began, sitting in front of me, "Oh god, are you drunk?"

"I dunno..." I shrugged.

"Whatever, why the fuck did you leave Pete!?" And suddenly my feelings were back, "Y'know he's the best guy you'll ever be with, right!? I mean, have you seen him? There's no way-"

"Daisy, please shut the fuck up."

"What did you say?"

"I said, 'Daisy, please shut the fuck up.'" She stood up in anger, now yelling at me. I wasn't paying much attention to what she said though. My eyes were too focused on a tree behind her.

"...You do not speak to me like that! I can't believe you..." She went on and on. I turned to see the group of people from before were back. In that group, I spotted Frank. He looked worried, and sad. Oh no... why is he sad? I'll go to him...

I got up, still tuning Daisy out, and walked to Frank.

"Y/n, are you okay?" He asked, but his words just went through my ears and disappeared into my mind. He's cute...

"Can I kiss you?" I asked. The crowd now dispersed once again, Daisy must have stopped yelling.

"What?" I cupped his cheeks.

"Can I kiss you? I've wanted to for so long..." He didn't even hesitate pressing his lips to mine. When he pulled away, he chuckled nervously.

"Frank, I think you're so cute."

"Are you drunk?"

"I dunno..."

"I think ya are. You got stars in your eyes." I just smiled at him.

"Can I kiss you again?"

"As much as I'd like you to, no. You're drunk..."

"Okay..." I hugged him, "I think Daisy hates me again..."

"That's alright, we can deal with her later."

"Mkay..." It was quiet for a moment as we stood there.

"Frank! There you are, where have you-" It was the girl from earlier, "Why're you with her?" She asked. He pulled away from me. No... now I'm cold...

"I'm sorry, I uh... I gotta take her home..." But the girl just shook her head with a sad look upon her face.

"No, you've been staring at her all night," She spoke softly, "Frank, I'm going back to the hotel. I thought maybe, we could try again but obviously, you're still in love with her." She then turned her back, and walked away.

"Wait! I'm sorry! Wait!" But she just kept going. He turned back to me.

"You're in love with me," He then held a smirk on his face, "I fucking knew it!" I cried. He just laughed.

"You're so drunk."

"And you're so in love with me!" He held me close as we began walking to I don't know where.

"And so what if I am?" I just shrugged, unable to even comprehend what he had just said.

"Wanna know something cool?"

"Shoot." We now stood in the grass in front of the river.

"I'm in love with you too!" And then I tripped over my feet. He caught me before I could hurt myself. We were both laughing hard at this point as we sat down in the grass.

"I thought you were gonna take me home..." I spoke, resting my head on his shoulder.

"Do you wanna go home?"

"No..." I adjusted my position slightly, "I wanna be with you..." He kissed the top of my head and wrapped his arm around me.
