So, Prom. How do I even describe Prom? Something strange went on, but Jake and I still don't know exactly what it was. It had to, though. Because it started out as the perfect prom night; we had a nice dinner and then went to the country club, where the prom was being held. The band was terrific and we danced and had a great time. Uh, until Jake and I got hit with a sudden case of extreme hormones.
I never felt anything like that before... ever. I mean, we talked about it the night before and agreed we weren't going to have our first time be on prom night. Because that's so cliched that it's almost a caricature of itself. But when we were dancing it was like somebody flipped a switch, and zing! We were actually making out against the wall, and how embarrassing is that? Surprisingly enough, we didn't have a wreck getting to the hotel, where Jake rented a separate room for us. It was intense. Until we both kinda came to our senses at the same time, and we were like, oh, my God, what are we doing?
We got ourselves back together and went to join everyone else in the suite, and it was kind of embarrassing at first but we had a great time. Except for when Amber dragged Jake into the bathroom to yell at him. I thought I was gonna have to go rescue him, even though I'd almost be scared to tangle with his sister. She's frightening when she gets mad. So all's well that ends well except for the gigantic hickey Jake has on his neck. Eeep.
We're good. Better than ever. I trust him so much, I think more than I've ever trusted anyone else, especially after what happened between us. It's going to be extra-special now, when it does happen. And it'll probably be soon. Um, at least I hope it is.
Today's the last day of school, and I'm totally psyched about that. I think we may be going to the beach tomorrow.
