As Doris Day - Dream a little dream of me, I twirled around with my 1950’s spotted dress.233Please respect copyright.PENANAxblzg1V4jC
I smiled softly and sang the last few notes. My room resounded with my voice and the last noted sounded.
“ Marilyn dear, you are late.” My mother came into the room and smiled softly.
I looked at the time and gasped. Running to the dressing room, I changed quickly, putting my jeans and hoodie back on. I passed near my mother and kissed her cheek.
“ Don’t be late.” She said.
“ I won’t.”
As I ran down the stairs my big brother shook his head and exited from the door.
“ Hey! Wait for me.”
“ Don’t run Marilyn.” My father said from the other room.
“ I can’t promise that,” I said as I sprinted from the door.
My brother already left.
“ Ugh”
I grabbed my bike and tried to catch up with him. When I turned the corner, he was already surrounded by girls.
His face looked bored as usual. He’s such a womanizer, without him even knowing.
“ Elijah,” I said.
He looked at me and smiled. “ Little Sis. Sorry ladies my baby sister needs me.”
The ladies awed.
What the hell?
I passed him and he followed with his own bike.
“ Saved by the bell.” He whispered.
I chuckled and shook my head.
“ Why did they awe? Seriously.”
He chuckled. “ Dario said that they like it when I act like a passionate big brother.”
I choked. “ You?”
He laughed out loud. “ You’re lucky to have me. Plus if it wasn’t for me, boys would be running after you.”
It was my turn to laugh. “ Don’t joke around.”
“ Dario and the other all asked me if they have a chance to ask you out.”
“ Great. And I presume since it’s a Friday today you will be having them over when Mum and Dad are out?”
He smirked. “ Guys only don’t worry.”
“ Yay!” I said sarcastically.
When we arrived, we parted ways and went to our respective classes.
My brother was only a year older than me and he’s in the last year. He’ll be leaving soon.
I hate to admit it but I’ll miss him.
“ Mar!!” A soft voice sounded.
I saw a small blond petite girl running my way.
“ Hey, Dominique. Good Morning.”
She stopped a few feet away and took a long breath before saying her own good mornings.
We headed to our first class.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
At lunch, we sat at our usual table. Our friends joined in and everyone was excited about something.
“ Why are you all so excited?” I said, eating my yogurt.233Please respect copyright.PENANA7N0sGQL7zf
A dark-haired guy turned his green gaze towards me. “ Mar, in what world are you living at?”233Please respect copyright.PENANAJaPeg73ESX
I shrugged. “ I don’t usually care Luke.”233Please respect copyright.PENANADUvsI8rNl5
He chuckled and nodded. “ We are talking about Prom.”233Please respect copyright.PENANAT8KurdXBcy
“ Prom?”233Please respect copyright.PENANAkFlZE4iPHi
He nodded and smiled.233Please respect copyright.PENANANkAsbGA4xS
I shook my head.233Please respect copyright.PENANAvEFRSlw1JP
“ Sucks to be you guys.”233Please respect copyright.PENANAjVsgGlm5Kh
They all turned towards me.233Please respect copyright.PENANAQ7xLbZRspS
“ Why?” A blonde haired guy with hazel eyes, called Simon said.233Please respect copyright.PENANAsYbzZ3SiE1
I looked at Simon, then at Luke, at Dominique and at my other two friends, Gavin and Monique.233Please respect copyright.PENANAa7Di7mSAjw
“ You guys are probably going crazy about if your crushe will go with you or not.”233Please respect copyright.PENANAEl1kNj9HTL
They all looked at me.233Please respect copyright.PENANAeoxXh9yGBj
I sighed. “ Dominique and Monique, you girls are twins. Use it to your advantage.”233Please respect copyright.PENANA1YBA6alGpV
Then I turned to the guys. “ Gavin, the girl you like is head over heels for you. Look at you.”233Please respect copyright.PENANA5rXsgFxTYe
He chuckled. His blue eyes sparkled with his hazel hair.233Please respect copyright.PENANAnHgFL4R9RB
“ Simon, if you ask her she will say yes, I’m sure.”233Please respect copyright.PENANARTj3KGXafu
Then I turned to Luke. “ I have nothing for you.”233Please respect copyright.PENANAnOKtRmjQhp
Luke slammed his head and they all chuckled.233Please respect copyright.PENANANYgkIGU1gF
When the others were immersed into their Prom talk, Luke turned to me.233Please respect copyright.PENANAIH1IbeMIFC
“ Hey princess.” He smiled, flashing his perfect pearl teeth.233Please respect copyright.PENANAaVq19HjgN2
“ Your beauty makes me sick.”233Please respect copyright.PENANAAV1pkmciOj
He burst into laughter and picked a strand of my hair.233Please respect copyright.PENANAOmm8y696an
“ Why didn’t you have anything to say to me. ?”233Please respect copyright.PENANAti4ArVCSth
I looked at him and smiled softly. “ Because I know who you wanna take to prom.”233Please respect copyright.PENANAf02H1qyabT
“ Do you ?”233Please respect copyright.PENANA4XjoA9ioAa
“ Yeah and you know she hates these kinds of things.”233Please respect copyright.PENANA848O4PEdjs
He chuckled and nodded. “ Unfortunately. Do you think I could convince her to at least go with me for this one?”233Please respect copyright.PENANAyPDXG2od6q
I sighed and rubbed my temples. Luke grabbed my hand in his.233Please respect copyright.PENANAM2bXI8q1ku
“ Just this once. I won’t even ask you out again.”233Please respect copyright.PENANAZIJEvMF6nW
I looked at him. “ You know that it’s not because I don’t want to go out with you. I do very much but-”233Please respect copyright.PENANAwbppQZmHzi
He shook his head and cut me short. “ I know Mar. Don’t worry.”233Please respect copyright.PENANAAKPOVsT1j8
I sighed and looked down at my half eaten food.233Please respect copyright.PENANAZLAo242VDM
“ Just this once. Before you leave.”233Please respect copyright.PENANAOQHPiIAkcY
That’s right. I almost forgot that I will leave in a month. My brother will stay here for his studies but they will take me to my Aunt’s house, for the time Mum and Dad have to go overseas. It was my choice not to go with them, but I was hoping that they would leave me with Elijah.233Please respect copyright.PENANAMnsNDEt2dk
But they told me Elijah will be so busy he won’t be able to be near me at all and for a short while I’ll have to go live with my Aunt and after Elijah finishes his studies I will go back to live with him.233Please respect copyright.PENANAJ2RXG6SBuL
“ Mar?”233Please respect copyright.PENANAkLkBffiCkz
I looked at Luke, he was gazing into my eyes hopeful.233Please respect copyright.PENANA2wtMcsQXH4
“ Okay.”233Please respect copyright.PENANA3c6AcKrmjr
His face lit up. “ Seriously?”233Please respect copyright.PENANASxAWWwB13i
I chuckled and nodded. He hugged me to him and laughed.233Please respect copyright.PENANAObEuZj3OwD
“ Thank you!”233Please respect copyright.PENANAJkjQwWoeiE
“ No, thank you. When I come back, if you will still be interested, I’ll take you back on that date offer.”233Please respect copyright.PENANA7I6RAuGt5s
His eyes pierced me with his thoughts. “ I will always have only you in my mind.”233Please respect copyright.PENANAyHS7RaFyFE
I smiled softly. I smile because I know that it wasn’t true.233Please respect copyright.PENANAxQYvXkznSU
“ Hey baby sis, you ready for today?” My big brother came near our table.233Please respect copyright.PENANABnsXdekTJJ
I’m pretty sure that the whole cafeteria just stopped talking.233Please respect copyright.PENANAaUSOM8x2GH
Even my friends looked at him.233Please respect copyright.PENANA008vgJECas
“ Yeah.”233Please respect copyright.PENANAlPgJd46RMC
He smiled and ruffled my hair. “ Sweet, I’ll wait outside.” He jogged back outside.233Please respect copyright.PENANAGd3woqDS7L
When I turned around, everyone was looking at me.233Please respect copyright.PENANAkLyc7FQ50P
“ Your brother makes an old ladies hormones work again.”233Please respect copyright.PENANASfyVE8J55G
“ Gross.”233Please respect copyright.PENANAfdvZHPkkUw
I picked my bag and got up from the table.233Please respect copyright.PENANANdA7pG2Ymf
“ I’m pretty sure I won’t be able to attend lunch with you for a while since my brother will keep me hostage as an excuse to avoid prom invitations.”233Please respect copyright.PENANAYLDKylF807
The guys chuckled but the girls sighed.233Please respect copyright.PENANAF3J8QG3cvH
Dominique jumped in her seat. “ Oh, I forgot. The theme is the 1950’s”233Please respect copyright.PENANAsfazaTNBuz
My eyes went wide and a huge grin spread from my lips.233Please respect copyright.PENANAu5ALc0qETI
She smiled and shook her head. “ I knew you would like it. I tried to make it possible but on one condition.”233Please respect copyright.PENANADVI6ZyApQG
My smile went back into a normal light.233Please respect copyright.PENANAUjMzc1rinl
“ What condition?”233Please respect copyright.PENANAI9yFCugHlH
“ That you sing a couple of songs until the singer comes.” Her face looked at me with promise.233Please respect copyright.PENANASxcbBeWeq5
I hit my hand on my head. “ You know how much I hate singing in public.”233Please respect copyright.PENANAxm0bQ3WEhR
“ I know but they asked for you. They know you have a voice of an angel.”233Please respect copyright.PENANAA4QrOf5Ouf
I rolled my eyes. “ I don’t.”233Please respect copyright.PENANAQTG2FdJwSU
“ You do.” Luke intervened.233Please respect copyright.PENANALdupnghzrz
“ Not helping.”233Please respect copyright.PENANAUrx3mGyJQ1
He chuckled and put his hand under his chin.233Please respect copyright.PENANAtZYS5LiEeD
“ You are going anyway, why not amuse them.” He said winking.233Please respect copyright.PENANAUXAhxDMJSH
I groaned.233Please respect copyright.PENANAoBm3R1XTTN
Then I turned to Dominique, “ I hate you.”233Please respect copyright.PENANAw8V2ZrYmaV
I turned in my heel and walked away.233Please respect copyright.PENANAQtE2m09sjD
“ Love you too.” She yelled.233Please respect copyright.PENANA8FkgCw6wao
When I arrived near my brother, his usual posse where around him.233Please respect copyright.PENANASUvDijAwhg
“ About time.” He said.233Please respect copyright.PENANAjrt7nkKONa
“ Don’t start.”233Please respect copyright.PENANAWfwOMVo3xV
Dario put his arms around my shoulders. “ What’s wrong cupcake?”233Please respect copyright.PENANAgrIcJYkPX3
My brother glared at him but he kept his hands around my shoulder.233Please respect copyright.PENANAGOwCV68lUC
“ Seems like I’m going to have to sing at Prom.”233Please respect copyright.PENANASWImahFEU0
They all looked at me and then burst into a fit of laughter.233Please respect copyright.PENANA0jARoDlGtt
“ Very funny.”233Please respect copyright.PENANAHt5W7CNWVm
I grabbed my bike and walked away.233Please respect copyright.PENANADRgzRyC0Ce
The boys still laughing followed me.233Please respect copyright.PENANAxzZBtOJDbk
Elijah put his arms around my shoulder but kept laughing.233Please respect copyright.PENANAleOXWKdzTL
“ Sorry, but we all know how you get when you go on stage.”233Please respect copyright.PENANAIQmcmq6NMt
I punched him in the stomach.233Please respect copyright.PENANAj7iq7xxNg3
“ Just because I vomited on the judges one time, ONE TIME, people.”233Please respect copyright.PENANA6kaftxbqdK
They all burst into another fit of laughter.233Please respect copyright.PENANA0V0HHPjhwf
I climbed onto my bike and paddled away.233Please respect copyright.PENANAZGimtWaHaa
They called my name but I didn’t care.233Please respect copyright.PENANAFEVvvEZHfw
When I arrived home, mum and dad had already left for their usual weekend convention.233Please respect copyright.PENANAPq8CfUOAvN
The boys should be arriving soon, so I took the opportunity to shower before they arrive.233Please respect copyright.PENANAApLgDHeOsU
When they come, I won’t be able to have some alone time. If I go in my room, they keep bugging me to come down so might as well stay downstairs and listen to their guy talk and then go into my beautiful room.233Please respect copyright.PENANAmMGCPysAF4
