Coming of Age Drama Funny

Chapter Six, The Other side of the story.

    As I walk to lunch I think. I don’t know what about, but I just… think. A random guy asked me out. I’m going to figure it out at the library. Library is in 27 minutes, and 48 seconds. Now 47. Now 46. Now 45. 44. 43. My head was clouded.

  I sit down alone and sigh. I look at Ash. Somehow, he’s got a girlfriend, he wouldn’t ask me out. I look at all the boys and close my eyes and take a deep breath. As I open them I see a boy looking right at me. He sees me looking at him and nervously looks away. I smile. I think I know who my mystery man is.

  I walk over to him.

  “Hey.” I say deeply.

  “O-oh uh hi Raven.”

  “What’s your name?”

  “U-u-uh Carson.”

  “Nice to meet yah.”

  “Ye-ah…”

  “So, whatcha writing?”

  “O-oh n-nothing!

  “Lemme see!”

  “No!”

 “Haha! I’m kidding. See you around Carson!” 

  I wave my hand bye. 

  Before library, I had some free time so I decided to take a walk with Lobo. I walk through the forest with him by my side. I sit on a tree stump and brush my hands through his soft, black fur. I close my eyes and smile as I take a huge deep breath of wood smelling air. 

  “I’ll see you when I come home ok?”

  Lobo barks as if saying, “make sure to give me all the details!”

  I smile and kiss his soft head. I walk away and sigh, remembering what is coming next.

    Chapter Seven, Library

   I look at Carson and he looks like he’s preparing something. He walks over to me and smiles.

  “Hey Raven!”

  “Hey.”

  “So, uhh... did you get my letter?”

I have to act surprised. Come on Raven you can do this.

  “Wow that was you?! Never would’ve guessed!”

  He laughs.

  “So will you go with me to the dance?”

  “Sure.”

  “O-oh. Really?”

  “Yeah. I’ve never gone with someone before.”

  “Ok, cool!” 

  “By the way, the note was nice. I liked it.”

  “Oh yeah no problem..”

  “See you tonight!” 

  “Y-yeah cya!”

  I grin as I walk away. Finally I wasn’t alone on Valentine’s. Next step, beautify.

  I had exactly 4 hours before the dance. 

  After school I run directly to the mall. Lobo will have to wait.

  I look in my wallet. $100 that’s it. Ok well… I don’t wanna look like I tried… let’s pick out a dress. I imitatally run to the dress store.

  I look at all of the beautiful dresses and gowns, lining the shelves.

  I see one that perks my interest. It’s a pastel purple dress with a white trimming. I run over to it and run to buy it.

  Then there was makeup, I really hate makeup but, I’ll try it out I guess. I buy some of that and then, finally, an accessory.

  I walk into a random store and see a black headband calling my name. I grab it and check out. I’m ready. Ready to get beautiful.

  It’s one thing to come home to an angry dog. But an angry mom? And an extremely angry wolf!? That’s heck.

   Chapter Eight, The Dance

  “Where were you?!” My mom yells at me.

  “I was shopping…” I say. I rush upstairs and get changed. The dance was very soon. I really needed to go. I put on the gross makeup and grin. I looked beautiful. I rush downstairs and wait for my ride. He comes pulling in the driveway with a smile on his face.

  “You look beautiful,” he says.

  “Thanks,” I blush. A while later we had gone to the dance and we were having a great time. I smile and dance with him. I then take a risk. I kiss him on the cheek. He blushes and my face turns cherry red. I smile. “I’ve had the best night,” I said. He then looks into my eyes and says,

  “Raven, will you be my girlfriend?” I gasp in shock and nod my head through happy tears. I grin and he kisses my head. I smiled so wide my mouth was stuck. We went home a little later and he waved goodbye. I’d had the best night ever. I lay in bed and replay the night all over again in my head. I fall asleep peacefully with a smile stapled to my face.

  And that’s my story. Now, I know what you're probably thinking, “what happens next?!” Well, we’ve been dating for a few months now, and I’m still always dreaming about that moment. Ash ended up in tears after his girlfriend left him and asked for me back, which of course I said no. Ash is the least of my problems tho.I’m happy and that’s all that matters. And that’s my happily ever after.

authors note! Hey guys I hope u enjoy this story because it finally ended. (It had been for a while until I was scrolling through my storys and remembered I had written more!) I really loved this little thing and im thinking about doing one for sant patrics day!

yeah, i mean the ending was a little abrupt, but I can deal with it XD. Yeah, it was okay, a good continuation of the last one...but i don't know, maybe some action needs to happen...I mean I get if you aren't all for action, and it was meant to be a romance, but..idk, I STILL LOVE THE WOLF THO!!!
