CHAPTER 6
My heart races and my stomach twists anxiously as I pull up in front of the banquet hall. My phone buzzes like crazy but I don’t look at it, knowing it’s probably Julia. I feel so guilty for telling her last minute that I would just meet her here and not go to her house first, but I just couldn’t show up with her and Jaxson. I would have felt like a complete idiot. Though maybe it wouldn’t have mattered, because as I get out of my car and see all the couples laughing and walking up to the front doors, I still feel like an idiot.
I feel a panic attack coming on and second-guess the decision I made to come here. So instead of heading into the hall I dart to the right and follow the stone path that leads to a beautiful garden lit up with white lights. I come to a sudden stop when I see a couple kissing, thinking they’re in privacy. I’m about to turn back around but they end up breaking apart and start leaving first.
“Hey, Kayla.” Suzy greets me with a blissful smile. “You look amazing, I love your dress.”
I glance down at my dress, the one my mom and I shopped hours for. At the time I had hoped to find something that would knock Cooper on his ass. The soft, black silk hugs my body in all the right places and falls effortlessly in others. The trim of rhinestones lay delicately along the swells of my breasts then follows a path along the straps and outlines the seams of the open back of the dress. Yup, it’s pretty fucking epic and I have no one to impress with it. Ugh, get over it, Kayla. I paste a fake smile on my face. “Thanks, I love your dress too. You guys both look great.”
“Thanks.” They head to the back entrance and I hear the music faintly as he opens the door for her and they enter the hall.
Blowing out a heavy breath, I go take a seat on the cement bench that’s in front of a small fountain. The sound of the water and the warmth of the surrounding white lights begin to calm my erratic heartbeat. God, what was I thinking coming here? Would it really have mattered to miss my own prom? My entire week has already been shit; missing this wouldn’t have made it much worse. Between having to tell my parents about what happened with Mark, going to the police station to file a report, and ensuring Cooper wouldn’t be there at the same time has left me completely drained. I should have just stayed home, curled up in bed and watched Dirty Dancing while vegging out and cursing a certain sexy cop. The idea sounds more appealing by the second and I decide that’s exactly what I’m going to do. I am in no mood to be here and my pity party is only going to wreck it for others.
