Prom flashback
When I tell you Katie’s jaw dropped… Did scary stranger just ask her if Ben and Jerry are real people? Sure but does he not know what that actually is? There was a moment of silence that felt like an eternity to Katie as she tried to process that, just staring at him. Watching him open the freezer and pulling out something she did not ask for. It’s fine… It’s fine really, she’s not ungrateful, ice cream is ice cream but did HE REALLY ASK HER THAT? ”You’re joking… Right? I mean yeah sure they are some guys but that’s like… T H E best ice cream in the world,” appearing next to him, Katie tried to meet his eyes expecting him to laugh because he was just messing with her but that’s not what happened… Or at least that what she thinks since she was distracted with the ice cream in front of her. ”Ooooh vanilla,” a goofy smile met her lips before she leaned down to lick whatever was left in the container. ”It’s good,” mumbling, she tried to break off a lil chunk with her fingers but quickly pulled away, now licking her fingers and taking steps back to the chair she was sitting on minutes ago. ”Sorry, I didn’t mean to touch your… ice cream like that.”
Maybe she did not get what she asked for… it’s not like it was a crazy and weird request… but it was still pretty damn good. Or maybe it was good because Kaspian made it… No, it was a milkshake and milkshakes are always good. And he always looks good and- ”Huh?” Katie caught herself once again staring at the guy and not paying attention to what he was saying while playing with the straw in her cup. Okay let’s rewind, he said something about… Questions, honesty… Ah, yeah. ”Ask you anything anything? Really anything? Hmm…” Taking a few more sips of her delicious milkshake made by God himse- scary stranger, Katie walked over to where he was sitting, taking a seat next to him, leaving almost no space between them. ”That’s… Why is it sooooooo hard to think of something?” Giggling, she left the glass down on the table turning to face him, her eyes not leaving his. ”I don’t kno- I l know! Is there a hot tub here?” Not really a question about Kaspian but it’s still a question, a good one if I could say so.
Not letting him answer that, Katie got up and rushed towards what she could only guess was a glass door leading to the outside area. And guess what she found there? ”Do you think we’ll get chased out again??” She yelled out, starting to slowly take off her dress but stopping when she realized that might not be her best idea. ”Hey… Uhm… Stop, don’t look,” a shy smile appeared on her lips when she turned to face Kaspian once he joined her outside, tightly holding up her strapless dress. ”Just… Turn… Yeah.” Of course she was not gonna get in in her dress, the thing is… She did not have much underneath… Now maybe she doesn’t really care about that but some privacy and respect is always nice. Once she was sure it was safe, she stripped down and with the biggest smile approached the hot tub.
”Mmm…” Katie mumbled, stretching in her bed- wait no, this was not her bed. This was not her bed? This was not her bed! Quickly sitting up she let her eyes adjust to the light in this unfamiliar room while looking around trying to figure out what the hell happened. She was in a bed that was obviously too big for just one person, she was wearing someones tshirt she’s never seen before, she… Fck, fck, fck… Did she…? No… Think… What happened? It was prom last night, she was having fun and… Yeah, she bumped into Kaspian and somehow ended up in someones house. There were some gaps but things were slowly coming back to her. She had a milkshake and there was a hot tub and… Hot tub. She kissed him… No, he kissed her… No? Yeah? Don’t ask her how she ended up in that situation but she does remember making out with the guy. Only that, right? She’d surely remember… Well, fck. How did it even get that bad, how does she not remember much? She didn’t even have anything to drink… Did she?
Was she still in that house? You can tell she has way too many questions and it might be a little overwhelming, this is not how she thought her night would end. Yeah, she did tell her aunt she’ll stay long but she did not tell her she’ll spend a night with someone!! She should really get back home… Sitting up, she carefully exited the room and made her way downstairs, kind of hoping she was alone and she doesn’t bump into anyone… Until she spotted him. She really spent that whole night with Kaspian and he was… He was making breakfast? ”Hi,” she quietly said, crossing her arms over her chest probably not realizing she looked like a complete mess right now. Her cheeks immediately burned up when she met his gaze, now once again being reminded of what happened last night so she looked away towards the table. ”What’s that- Is that…” Running her hand through her hair she shook her head, a smile of disbelief on her lips. ”I know those are waffles but is that… My very special milkshake? Did I really tell you about that last night?” What is her life right now???
March 28th
It’s been a few days since that very confusing, eventful… Fun, incredible day and there’s not a moment when she doesn’t think about it. Think about the hot tub, about the breakfast… Even if she hasn’t really heard from Kaspian since then. Some things just stick with you, you know? Especially to someone like Katie. He made her feel special so of course he’s all she’s gonna think about now and hope to see his face whenever she turns around. It’s… It can be really frustrating but at least she can’t think much about it when she’s working and luckily she was at work now.
Changing into her little uniform, Katie walked out of the staff room into the bakery, smiling at her coworkers as she joined them. ”It’s getting kind of busy, huh?” She commented on her way to the register, fixing her hair while a smile remained on her lips. Gotta stay positive and get good tips… Sigh. Just for a second that smile faltered as she met the eyes of a guy just standing there, waiting for her… Not for her her but for… Someone. You get it. Whoooo is that? ”H- How are you? How can I help you?” She managed to say, putting on her sweet smile and acting as if he’s not one of the cutest guys she’s seen around. Just get over it Katie… He’ll get something then leave and you’ll never see him again… You’ll daydream about it for a couple of days and then go back to remembering your fun prom.
