Amelia's POV
Esmeralda and Cassy assumed I have no plans for today, and wanted me to clean the bathrooms. They're so lucky I woke up early to finish on time. Lazy ass bitches.
I hear Cassy's friends arriving to get ready for prom, and she kicks me out of the house. Smirking, I grab everything I need to get ready, and sprint towards Lily's car.
"They actually let you go?" Lily asks surprised.
"I'm not dumb, I just said I had another shift to work. Gets them off my back for the rest of the night." I say shrugging.
"I heard Tiffany is throwing an after party." She says, driving back to her house.
"Yep, Cassy is helping her plan it." I say, remembering her bragging about having plans tonight.
When Lily parks in her garage, we run towards her room to get ready. "You first." She claims, shoving me into her bathroom.
I change into my dress and open the door.She dramatically gasps and says, "Cinderella who? My bitch is all grown up!"
I smile and pretend to courtesy. "There's pockets!" I say, sliding my phone in.
"Pockets?! A million times better!" She exclaims.
I start to curl my hair, while Lily changes. When she opens the door, she says, "Ta da!"
I turn and see she's literally sparkling. "You're too beautiful for my eyes. Those sparkles are blinding me." I say, covering my eyes.
"Thank you, it was on sale!" She says excitedly.
"Do you know where they're taking us for pictures?" I ask, halfway done with my hair.
"Nope. They wanted it to be a surprise." She says shrugging.
After we finish styling our hair, we decide to eat a quick snack. "Which flavor of Pringles?" She asks, holding barbecue and original.
"Original please." She throws the can and I almost drop it.
When she opens the can, she complains, "My fat hands don't fit."
I laugh and she throws a chip at me. "To have skinny bony hands." She says, eyeing my hands.
"Stop looking at them. It's weird." I say, turning away.
After we finish eating, we put on some makeup, and grab our heels. "Jase said the limo is two minutes away." She says.
"They got a limo?" I ask surprised.
"First and last prom we'll ever have. Might as well make it extra." She says.
I nod, and grab my phone. Lily squeals when she hears the doorbell, and we almost trip down the stares.
She opens the door and Jase smiles. "Hello my beautiful girlfriend." He says, pulling her out of the house.
I open the door wider, and Sylvester smiles when he sees me. He steps inside and not so subtly checks me out. You ain't being subtle either. "You look beautiful. How did I get so lucky?" He says, meeting my eyes.
"Money. I'm with you for the money." I deadpan.
We both laugh and I say, "I know I suck at like expressing feelings or whatever, but I'm really happy you're in my life too."
He grins from ear to ear, and I cover my face. "Don't say anything." I say, knowing it's probably red.
He wraps his arms around my waist, and pulls my hands away. "I wasn't going to tease you this time." He says, leaning closer.
"I highly doubt that." I say, closing the distance.
"Come on lovebirds, while I'm still a high schooler." I hear Jase shout.
We pull away and Sylvester grabs my hand. "Ready for your first limo ride?" He asks.
I nod and we meet Lily and Jase outside. "I told the driver to make a quick stop at Chick-fil-A before we came." He whispers in my ear, before opening the door for me.
"Wow, really after my heart huh?" I ask, pecking his lips.
"Always." He says winking.
I see the bag of food and reach in for a fry. "Save some for me Amelia." He says, eyeing me suspiciously.
"Sometimes the fries comes half full, I'm not lying!" I say, biting back a smile.
"Right..." He says, definitely not believing me.
*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*
After we took our pictures, we got dropped off at the hotel's entrance. We're guided to the first ballroom in the hall, and I look at the decorations.
"Not bad." Lily says, admiring the lights.
We move towards the middle, and the DJ changes the song. Lily screams and forces me to jump around with her. She starts shouting the lyrics and I join her.
Soon we're all jumping and bumping into each other. Sylvester twirls me around, while Lily starts twerking on Jase. Of course she's a pro.
Jase accidentally bumps behind a girl, and she immediately turns to face us. "Sorry..." He shouts, before realizing it's Tiffany.
"Actually, no he's not." Lily shouts, pulling him away.
Tiffany glances at Sylvester and smirks. "Sylvester, why don't you join our group? I'm sure you'll be a little more entertained, compared to them..." She shouts, staring at me.
"I can't! I'm being entertained by my girlfriend." He shouts back.
Cassy hears and stops jumping around. "Girlfriend?" She asks confused.
Sylvester grabs my hand to show off the corsage he picked out, and points to me. "Girlfriend." He states, wanting them to leave him alone.
Tiffany's jaw drops and she says, "You're kidding. You two are together?"
"There's no way this bitch pulled you." Cassy says, laughing at my face.
I smirk and say, "Oh, but I did. Turns out he isn't into stupid ass bitches. So of course that rules you two out...
Tiffany glares at me and says, "The least you could do is try to look pretty then. He'll get tired of your ugly appearance and boring personality soon enough."
"I'll be waiting." She says, winking at him.
Sylvester's whole demeanor changes, and he walks towards Tiffany. She smirks, thinking he's coming to join them.
"Don't ever talk shit about my girlfriend again. You will never come close in comparison, and you need to get that through your two brain cells. Now stay the fuck away from us, before I let Lily kick your ass." He says, glancing at her.
"Too late." Lily says, grabbing a drink from a student, and pouring it on Tiffany's hair and face."Don't ever talk shit about my best friend again she says angrily.
Tiffany gasps, while Cassy pulls her away. "I am so not sorry, my finger slipped." Lily says.
I laugh and flip them off. Sylvester returns to my side, and wraps his arms around me. "Having fun?" I ask.
"I can't believe you had to put up with them for so long. If they come near us again, I'm placing a restraining order." He says.
I smile, and cup his cheek. "My hero." I say, inching forward. He brushes his lips against mine, and I hear Lily celebrating.
"Fuck those bitches!" She screams, knowing the music will drown her out. The people around her don't know what she's talking about, but are also cheering with her.
We laugh and I rest my chin on his shoulder. "Thank you for being my everything, Amelia." He says into my ear.
"You really have my bracelet to thank. Nothing would have happened without it." I say.
"I don't know... I'm sure I would have taken control of my destiny and asked you out, sooner or later." He says.
"Really?" I ask surprised.
"Destiny." He says, pecking my lips. I smile, and start swaying when the music changes.
