Chapter 29: Prom night 1 {An angel in person}

It's 6 PM and prom would start in about an hour but I'm still at home looking for the nicest dress to wear. Victoria recommended a nice dress for me three days ago but now I don't seem to look pretty wearing the dress.

My bed was filled with dresses, and fancy bags but they didn't seem nice to me.

I had lots of calls from Victoria and Ella but I couldn't pick up the call because I was too busy searching for a nice dress.

While I was searching, I got tired so I sat on my bed and sighed, shortly after, I received a text on my phone, I picked up the phone and looked at it, it was a text from Jones. 

"I'm heading to your place already, hope you're ready,"

After I read the text, I stood up and kept trying out the dresses again but then mom walked into the room with a fancy shopping bag. I looked at her nervously and remained quiet.

"Darling, I know we've had our differences and we have unfinished business, but you might need this," she said and pointed the shopping bag to me. I slowly collected it from her hand and looked inside, it was a blue fabric. I bought it out and saw it was a very beautiful and fancy blue dress. I became speechless and looked at mom cheerfully.

"Go have fun baby," she said to me.

I sighed and chuckled,
"But I thought you never liked me going to parties and all that,"

Mom sighed,
"Well when I was your age, I was like a photocopy of Victoria, 60 percent of the awards on the shelve down the living room, I won them at prom. I had so much fun in school and everyone wanted to be my friend. Now it's your turn to have fun, what kind of mother would I be to hinder you from having fun," she said.

"I had no idea you were that popular mom, but why didn't you want me to go to parties and all that?"

"Because you're really pretty and I don't want anyone to take you away from me," she said and wiped off the smile on her face, "Just like your father took me away from my mom," she said as I began to feel horrible, "It wasn't his fault, he only loved me but my mom wanted me by her side all day...," while she was talking, my phone rang, I looked at it and saw it was Jones.

"Oh my God mom, Jones is already here, I have to get dressed but I still want to hear you out," I said

"When you come back I'll tell you, go meet Jones baby," I stood and smiled at mum cheerfully, "Thanks mom," I said, and then mom helped me get dressed.

Jones's POV

I stood for 30 minutes waiting for Angie, I tried calling but she didn't pick up the call, I sent her text messages too but no replies and it was getting kinda annoying. I wanted to go knock on her door but I was kinda shy because of what happened the last time. I pulled out my phone and tried calling her again but then she walked out of her house and when I saw her, my heart skipped a beat as I began looking at her without saying a word....{Recomemded song for this scene: Marilyn monroe by Nikki Minaj}.....  She chuckled and looked at me with a pretty smile on her face. I haven't seen an angel before but she looked like one. Her dress was so beautiful, it matched her perfect shape and skin colour.

End of POV

I walked to Jones and he held my hand,
"You're so beautiful," he said with a serious look on his face,

"Thanks," I said and smiled but he kept looking at me, "Uh... Can we go now?" I asked,

"Yeah, sure," he said and opened the door for me. I turned and looked up and saw mom looking at me through my room window. I smiled and got into the car, Jones got into the car as well and looked at me again,
"Baby, please don't ever leave me," Jones said. When he said this I became a bit confused because I didn't know why he said that.

"Okay, but why did you say so?"

"Because losing you is going to be a big loss to me," he said and kept looking at me. "I know I've hurt you lots of times but please forgive me," he said,

"Where are all these coming from Jones, I swear I'm not mad at you," I said but he remained quiet while he kept looking at me. He slowly rubbed my cheek with his thumb and kissed me on my lips. After the kiss, he smiled and drove us to prom.

We arrived at school by 7 PM, when we got to school, they were cameramen waiting for us to get down from the car. "Stay here," Jones said to me and got out of the car, then he walked to my side and opened the door for me. I walked out of the car and he helped me close the door, then I crossed my arm around his arm and we headed to the school's auditorium. We were taken lots of pics, in fact the light from the camera was kinda disturbing. When we arrived at the school's auditorium, everyone began to cheer us, guys admired Jones's suit and girls admired my dress.

The school auditorium was so beautiful, they were balloons everywhere and it was amazing because I felt like the VVIP in the school's auditorium. While I was thanking everyone for their compliments, Betty walked to me,

"O...M...G Angie, you look like a billion dollar," she said and chuckled,

"Stop it," I said and chuckled.

"No, for reals, you're dress is so beautiful, where did you buy it?"

"Well, my mom got it for me,"

"Okay after Prom I'm coming to your place and your mom owes me one of these dresses," she said then we both began to laugh.
