PrologueA Chapter by KittyKatgirl Homecoming I smile walking down the hallway holding my boyfriend’s hand relishing the daggers being shot at me from the girls. I couldn’t help it I loved being with one of the most popular boys in school. I couldn’t believe that it’s been 2 years since he asked me out and we are still together now. We paused at my chemistry room. Haven smiled down at me kissing me deeply then pulled back. “My house after school?” I nod smiling reluctantly letting go of his hand as he jogged off to his class. I sigh just about to walk into the classroom when I heard someone call my name breathless. I turned around seeing my best friend Caitlin running towards me late as usual. I waited for her before disappearing into the room with her. Mrs Smith looked at us with her beady black eyes. “Sorry for being late,” I apologised for both me and Caitlin. Mrs Smith was a single mother in her late 40s. Her son was a drop out and still lived with her and she was indeed under a lot of stress and rarely had the energy to yell at any latecomers. Caitlin and I went to the back of the room sitting at our usual table and started copying the notes that Mrs Smith had already written on the board. Caitlin constantly kept asking me what a word was because she was short sighted. I tried talking her into wearing her prescribed glasses but she promptly refused. Caitlin wanted to be homecoming queen at our prom this Friday night and she thought that wearing glasses would lessen her chance of winning. In my opinion, glasses wouldn’t change a thing. Caitlin was pretty with her long blonde hair that was so bright it was almost white and her sparkling blue eyes the colour of the sea. I reckon she had a high chance of winning. The class seemed to go on forever. I couldn’t wait to meet Haven at his house. I knew his parents weren’t home they were on a cruise and won’t be back till Thursday just before homecoming. I sigh as the bell went and I hurried to my locker to dispose my books and pulled out my jacket knowing it was chilly outside. I pulled it on as I manoeuvred through the crowded hallway. Haven’s house was pretty far a 15 minute drive from the school. I beat him there parking my car in the driveway smiling. We had a race most days to see who can get there quicker. A couple minutes later I saw Haven’s white Mercedes parking right behind mine. I smile going over to him before he could even open the car door and pulled it open for him. He grinned climbing out wrapping his arm around my waist and pulled me against him kissing me deeply. I kissed him back with just as much passion then pulled back leading him to the door and disappeared inside with him. As soon as the door was closed he pressed me up against the wall kissing me so hard I thought my lips would be bruised. Almost as quick as the kiss had come his hand slipped under my shirt getting dangerously close to my breasts. I pull away disengaging myself from his arms. “Come on you know our promise,” I said shaking my head. We had promised each other that Homecoming night was our night. The night we gave in to our desire and give up our virginity for each other. Even though we have been dating for 2 years we have never gone further then necking. I just wasn’t ready. He never pushed me but the last couple of months he had constantly brought it up and tried making a move. That’s when we compromised and agreed that Homecoming night was perfect for this special moment. Haven looked at me and I couldn’t help but chuckle when I saw the desire in his eyes. I shook my head rolling my eyes at him. “I can’t wait that long,” he said. “It’s only 2 days away!” I said rolling my eyes again. “I think I’ll die by then,” he joked clearly exaggerating. “No you won’t!” I said crossing my arms. Suddenly he put his hand to where his heart was, his mouth in a o shape then he fell to the ground. I sigh shaking my head in disbelief. “You are so not funny,” I said. Haven climbed to his feet rubbing his head. He had bumped it when he fell down to the ground served him right. “If you only invited me here for sex then I’m going to go,” I said turning towards the door. He quickly strode forward grabbing my arm stopping me. I grinned in triumph. “No don’t. I’m sorry I was just only joking around. I would never push you. We can do it when you are ready!” he said sounding so sincere I almost was tempted to just do it right now instead of waiting till after homecoming. “Come on let’s go watch a movie,” he said taking my hand leading me to the living room. I sit on the red love seat that was directly across from the large flat screen TV watching as he rummaged through the movies. He pulled out one of my favourites Spirit: Stallion of Cimarron. I grin as he put it in the dvd player then turned the TV on then sat beside me wrapping his arm around my shoulders. I smile resting my head on his shoulder watching the movie with him. By the time it finished it was slowly approaching dusk outside. “I better go home, before dad finish work,” I said climbing to my feet. He walked me to the door and after a short passionate kiss I walked down the driveway to my car and drove home. 2 days later I bite my lip nervous and excited as I get dressed. I pull on my lace underwear not really caring about the homecoming that was starting in a couple of hours. All I cared about was what was going to happen afterwards. I somehow managed to get into my dress that was the exact shade of my hair blood red. I couldn’t help but grin noticing how it was tight in all the right places and showed more curves as opposed to my usual tight jeans and blouses I usually wear. I hear my father calling me downstairs, quickly making sure not a single hair was out of place and none of my makeup was smudged I slowly walked downstairs. Caitlin was waiting at the bottom of the stairs for me with her recent boyfriend Caleb. Caitlin goes through boys like she goes through shoes. Haven and I had agreed we would meet at the prom because I wanted it to be a surprise when we saw each other. I smile as we finally arrive already hearing the music even though we were approximately a mile from the gym where it was being held. I look around for Haven’s familiar Mercedes but I don’t see it. But there was so many cars it could be anywhere. I follow Caitlin and Caleb into the gym looking around instantly hoping to see Haven’s handsome face. But I couldn’t see him anywhere. I slowly start to panic. “What’s wrong?” Caitlin asked. “I don’t see Haven anywhere,” I said starting to pale. “Hey don’t worry, he could’ve just been held up. We only got here Lucy he’ll be here soon,” Caitlin said placing a comforting hand on my shoulder. I nod slowly relaxing. But almost 2 hours later when everyone was on the dance floor slow dancing he still wasn’t here. I sat on a chair miserable and worried. What if something happened to him? I checked my phone hoping I had a text or something but there was nothing. I was so close to tears. Caitlin looked over at me and disengaged herself from Caleb then weaved through the couples bee lining straight to me. I try to smile but it looked more like a grimace. But the principal stopped her halfway and whispered something in her ear. She looked at me with longing then disappeared with the principal along with 4 other girls. I recognised them as the princesses who were nominated for homecoming queen. Even though I wanted to stay to see if Caitlin would win I couldn’t stay here any longer. I went outside tears trailing down my face running to my car not caring that I ripped my dress on a tree branch on the way. I slammed the driver’s door then leant my head against the steering wheel with loud racking sobs. A half hour later I managed to calm down… well calm down enough to drive. I went straight home struggling to see through my blurry vision from all the crying. My father took one look at me then pulled me into the living room sitting me on the couch and went to make me a hot coffee. I take it grateful. “What did that b*****d do to you?” dad asked. I knew what he was talking about he thought that Haven had tried to rape me or sexually assault me at the least. “He didn’t show up dad,” I said then I hear the front doorbell. Dad gets up to answer it then I hear them talking. I recognise the other voice it was Haven. I stay on the couch not wanting to see him ever again. I heard dad starting to shout clearly angry that Haven had made me cry. Making me cry wasn’t bad breaking my heart was the worst. I hear Haven say he can explain but he didn’t have the chance. The door slammed and he reappeared in the living room and sat beside me on the couch pulling me into his arms. I start crying again sobbing into his chest.
