Alissandra Cadence
I knew that attending this prom is a freaking stupid idea. I know that it's also my fault for kissing McKenley but how could I not when almost all of the people inside the venue want us to?
I'm already on the verge of choosing Elijah but, I think he's gone now... He probably realized the guy I kissed was McKenley since he's the only guy I'd ever have a close relationship with. I don't know what to do... But, he's still the one, I still love you, Lij...
I headed back to the venue to grab my things, I gave my crown to someone as I went inside and she seemed shocked but she suddenly realized when she saw me crying.
I went back to our table and grabbed my handbag. I looked for McKenley to say goodbye. I asked someone, a girl if she noticed Jason.
"Hey, I just wanna ask if you know where Jason McKenley is?"
She just stared at me for a sec.
"Oh, McKenley? Hmm, I think I saw him around the pool." then she gave me a wicked smile.
"Oh, right. Thanks."
I went to the pool and he's not here, there's just a bunch of girls hanging around laughing. I turned around and I just bumped into someone but I felt a slight push. I got pushed backward and fell directly into the pool. I don't know how to swim but thank God I'm wearing heels today I was able to stand in the pool. As soon as I opened my eyes after falling, I saw a girl that I don't know.
"Oh - gosh. I am so so sorry." then she covered her mouth, trying to hide her evil grin.
I glared at her and I suddenly smell something in the pool, it's like the smell of strong chlorine.
Fuck! My hair, and my dress!
I quickly tried to climb up the pool but I couldn't, my dress became heavy and it's hard to climb up in heels. I attempted to climb up again and the straps of my heels broke, causing me to fall and I struggled as I couldn't reach the bottom of the pool anymore.
"Alissa!" someone shouted and dove right into the pool.
I felt someone put his arms around my armpits and dragged me, those hands felt like McKenley's, and I wasn't wrong. He dragged me out of the pool and laid me on the floor while I coughed several times.
"Are you okay?" he asked.
I just nodded while still coughing.
He's also all wet, obviously. He's kind of confused about what just happened but he seems really concerned.
Ugh, what would I do without you...
My head started to itch and the chlorine reacted so suddenly, causing my dress to color bleed.
I stood up in shock as I saw my hair turned into a greenish color.
Some people noticed what was going on and are watching from inside the venue.
With intense anger, I took off my heels then I rushed to the girl who pushed me because I'm certain that what she did was purely intentional.
I approached her and smiled. Then I grabbed her by the hair and pulled her into the pool by grabbing her arm and she screamed as she fell right in.
Well, she couldn't swim too. That evens out everything.
I went inside the venue, drenched and dripping all over but I don't care. I just wanna leave this damn place. I already went outside and headed towards Jason's car.
Jason reached me "Hey, what happened back there?"
"What do you think happened?" I said sarcastically.
I just sat on the corner near his car.
"I'm sorry," he said.
"I'm sorry too."
"For what?" he asked.
"I uh - I already love someone...so I can't be with you. But I ruined it all tonight because I kissed you."
He just stood there, speechless while staring at me.
"Do you think it's my fault?" he asked.
"What? No. It's my fault that I kissed you."
"Is he already your boyfriend?" he asked.
"I guess so?" I LITERALLY DON'T EVEN KNOW.
"Who is it?" he asked.
I feel like he's asking way too many questions but I understand him so I'll just answer him, but for this one, I don't think so.
"You don't even wanna know..."
"Okay, well... How much do you know him?" he asked.
"So much that we even slept together."
I guess this is my way of letting you go, McKenley. I hate making you feel bad but I just don't wanna hurt you anymore. So hold tight, I'll hurt you for the last time, tonight.
"Oh... Okay..." he said.
"I'm sorry, Jason... We're supposed to have fun tonight and make it memorable but, I just couldn't take it anymore..."
"Nah, it's fine." then he sniffed.
Now I feel so freaking bad...
"You don't have to be sorry. I just couldn't figure out how and why I wasn't enough for you. I understand our situation, I do. And I also know your relationship with that guy," he said.
What?
"This guy we're talking about is Jessica's half-brother, right? The one that you recently just met? Heh, I just couldn't realize that you'll choose that guy over me. After all the times I've been there for you. When the times that you were sad, when you're missing your sister, when you're alone and being bullied in school before, when you almost got sexually abused by that playboy, and earlier when someone pushed you into the pool. It's just funny, Alissa. I'm not actually blaming you because first of all, I don't have any right to tamper with your decisions in life. I just hope that you'll be happy with your decision and I wish you the best, as I always did. And yeah, I love you, but now, there's no reason to. And from now on, I won't try to be around you anymore, I'll give you as much space as you want. I'll let go of you just for the sake of your happiness." and he smiled as he tried to resist his tears from falling.
"I... wanted you to stay... because, it's hard to run away..." he looked up, pulling back his tears. "And you know what, you may be the unluckiest woman in the world."
"Why is that?" I asked.
"Because... You're not meant for me." and he started to walk away.
He suddenly turned around "You'll never hear anything from me ever again..." he then turned back again.
"Starting now..."
