"Welcome back to Biology," Mr. Smith said, "how was your spring break!" he said very excitedly, but no one else was excited. I was half sleeping when Mr.Smith said my name. "Arizona, Arizona Johnson!" "What?!" i say jumping up into my seat. Everyone was Laughing at me, but I was still half asleep.

"Ms. Johnson, how was your spring break?" Mr.smith said a little bit angrier than usual. I think he's mad at me, I thought. "I really did nothing Mr.Smith," I said, "I did what most teenagers do. I slept in, ate food, and hung out with my friends." I said. "Thank you Arizona." Mr. Smith said and he walks back to his desk.

A few hours past and soon it was lunch. I got my lunch and sat my my best friends, Dylan and Jasmine. "Hey A.J.!" Dylan and Jasmine say at the same time. Before I could laugh, Rachel pokes my shoulder to make me turn around. Rachel and I never liked eachother. We never liked eachother since we meet. There was always something about us that never clicked.

"What do you want Rachel." I say carelessly. "I want to give you this" Rachel said as she pours all of her milk on my shirt. I didn't freak out because I was used to it. "What the heck Rachel!" Jasmine said as she gets out of her spot and gets in Rachel's face. Rachel stands there and starts to laugh with her friends.

Jasmine's fist were about to explode, but Dylan stopped her. "Jasmine I don't think that's a good idea." Dylan said. "Jasmine I don't think that's a good idea." Dylan said. Dylan puts Jamine's fist down and brings her back to her spot. Once Jasmine sat down Ranchel left laughing with her friends laughing . "Well," i said, "I guess I have to change." "do you have any extra clothes?" Dylan asked. "I always Pack an extra pair of clothes," I said, "we never know with Rachel." I make both of them laugh as Ihead to my locker.

As I head to my locker to change my milk shirt, Noah comes over to me. "hey, I heard what happen" Noah said, " are you okay?" "yeah I'm fine" I say not making eye contact with him. If I made a eye contact with Noah my cheeks would get red.

Chapter 2

Noah and I knew eachother for a long time, longer than I knew my friends today. Noah has dark brown hair, blue eyes, and was very tan. We used to like eachother, but Rachel came in between our friendship in 8th grade. She asked out Noah in 9th grade and they started dating. and I never really talked to Noah again. Rachel and Noah broke up in 11th grade. After they broke up, Noah started to talk to me again.

Rachel hated me even more when Noah and I started talking again. "Seriously though, are you okay?" Noah asks, stepping in front of me, and forces me to look at him. "Yeah Noah I'm fine you don't need to worry about it." I could tell that my cheek were turning red. "Are you hot Arizona?" "No... Yes! Yeah it's hot in here!" I said almost have a panic attack. "Okay...," Noah said, "I'll see you tomorrow then." He started to walk back to the cafeteria, but I didn't notice. "Yeah I'll see you tomorrow too-" I turn around to see no one. "Noah." I say quietly. A smile appears on my face.

I got to my locker and grabbed my extra shirt out of my bag. I went strait into the bathroom and put on my new shirt and I went back to the cafeteria. 'I'm back!" I said. "Congrats, you made it." Jasmine said sarcastically. We all laugh as we finish our lunches.

I have known Jasmine and Dylan for a long time, since 9th grade. after Noah started to date Rachel, I started to hang out with Jasmine and Dylan. When I first met Jasmine, she was very sarcastic. Jasmine is tan, has Beautiful brown eyes, and long wavy black hair. When i started to hang out with Jasmine, I met Dylan. He didn't have a lot of friends until he met us. Dylan is very funny, but awkward around people. He has dirty blonde hair and blue eyes. Dylan, Jasmine and I do Everything together.

We go to movies, parties, and the high school dances together. I wouldn't know what to do without them. "So what are we doing for this weekend?"Dylan asks."I don't know yet," I said, " do you have an idea Jasmine?" "Maybe we can go to a movie again?" Jasmine said questionably. "we saw a movie last week ago." "We saw a movie last week ago." I said. "Yeah, true." Dylan said. "Prom is in a few weeks," Jasmine said, " maybe we can look for our dresses A.J. and Dylan can look for his suit." "That seems like a good idea!" I said. "I also need to tell you something." I said. "what A.J.?" Jasmine asked. "I want to ask Noah to prom" They both gasped.

Chapter 3

"Are you serious?" Dylan said as Jasmine was freaking out. Everyone was looking at us confused. "Yeah I was thinking about that for a while." I said. "I'm really happy for you A.J.!" Jasmine said "Really I didn't notice." i said. she looks at me and gives out a laugh. The bell rings and we all go to our next class

The first day of school back from spring break was over and I went strait to my car and texted Dylan and Jasmine.

A.J. : So how should I ask Noah to prom?? Jasmine: I think you should get him a car! Dylan: I think that's a little too far Jasmine...

Jasmine: I was JOCKING guys! Do you guys just don't know what a joke is. A.J. : I couldn't tell. Dylan: Yeah, me either A.J. : Anayway, we can talk about it tomorrow Jasmine: Yeah, I'll see you guys tomorrow. I turned off my phone and started my car and left my school. I was thinking about how I would ask Noah to prom, but I was already home. It was really hot in Flordia. I turned off my car and went in my house. It was 4;15 when I went into the bathroom. I notice that my brown hair was a mess and I brushed my hair. I kept think about Noah. What if he said no? What if Noah never liked me, I thought. I was wondering about that question since I met him. I noticed that I was in the bathroom for an hour, so I finally stopped thinking about Noah.

It was 7:00 at night and I was tired. I looked at my phone and saw that Jasmine texted me an hour ago.

Jasmine: Do you have an idea for a prom dress? A.J. : No, not really, and sorry for not texting you a while ago.

Jasmine: Nah it's fine. A.J. : Do you have any ideas? Jasmine: I have a few. A.j. : Okay what time do I need to be at your house? Jasmine: What about 12:00 on Saturday? I can text Dylan A.J. : sounds good, see you tomorrow!

I head into the bathroom and take a shower. I was think of a way to ask Noah to prom, but I didn't really know how. "I think I'll make a sign to ask-: wait no that's too basic, but if I ask Noah in person it would be too boring. Ugh!"

I said to myself. I got out of the shower and it was already 8:30. I still had a ton of homework to do. who gives out homework the first day back on spring break, I thought. I finished all of my homework and went strait to bed. "I wish I could sleep forever." I whisper to myself as I drift asleep. Chapter 4

It was saturday and I was choosing what to wear to go find my Prom dress. "Should I wear comfy or cute clothes to the mall?" I said to myself. I heard my phone buzz. Jasmine was calling me."Hey Jasmine, what do-" "Are you here yet?" Jasmine said. I looked at the time and it was 11:30. "I'll be there in 10 minutes." I said. I hung up and put on the comfy outfit and I run out my door and I start my car and leave.

I got to Jasmine' house at 11:50 and I saw Dylan and Jasmine get into Jasmine's car. I park next to Jasmine's house and run into Jasmine's car. "You came just in time." Dylan said. I laugh and we head off to the mall.

We got to the mall and headed right to the dress store. it takes us a few minutes to find a dress for Jasmine. It was a short black dress with a jeweled top. "I think you'll like this one Jasmine." I show her the dress and she take sit out of my hand and runs to the dressing room. "Well, at least she likes the dress." Dylan said. "Yeah." I said. Jasmine walks out of the dressing room with a smile on her face. "Wow..." Dylan said. "I know right, ' Jasmine said, "it's amazing right?"

"I love it Jasmine." i said. "Thanks A.J.!" Jasmine goes back into the dressing room. "You're buying this dress right?" Dylan said. "Of course." Jasmine said. I laugh as she comes out of the dressing room with the dress. Jasmine buys her dress as Dylan and I look for my dress. I couldn't find any good dresses for me. I was losing hope and i was getting worried that I wouldn't find a dress in time for prom. "Hey A.J.," Jasmine said "I might have found the dress." I look at the dress and it was gorgeous. It was a red 2 piece that had lace on the top and Roses on the bottom. "I need this." I take out the dress right of her hands and I went into the dressing room. When I was putting the dress on, I had a smile on my face. The dress fit perfectly on me and it look amazing. I went out of the dressing room and both of their mouths dropped. I laughed. "I guess this is a yes?" I said. Jasmine and Dylan both laugh and they both shake there head yes. I go back into the dressing room and I buy the dress.

An hour later we buy Dylan's suit and we leave the mall. We got out of the mall around 5:30 and everyone was tired. I almost tripped getting into Jasmine's car. Jasmine start her car and we drive off. "A.J. we need to talk." Dylan said. "What?" i said nervously. "How are you going to ask Noah to prom?" Dylan said. I gave out a little sigh. "I was thinking of doing no gesture and just asking him in person." i said. "Yeah, I agree." Jasmine said.

"I do that too, I wouldn't want a huge gesture and make it very public." Dylan said. "Yeah, me too." I said. "Do you want to have like an date to ask him or whenever you get the chance?" Jasmine said. "I think you shouldn't have a specific time to ask Noah, you should wait for a perfect time." Dylan said. "Wow, you're like actually smart for once." Jasmine said. We all laugh and I thinking about Noah. My cheeks were getting red. I was going to ask Noah to prom, and no one could stop me.

Chapter 5

It was Wednesday, and it was study hall. This was the only class of the day I could ask Noah to prom. I was freaking out. I was shaking, sweating everywhere, and I felt like I was going to throw up. "A.J., you're going to be fine." Jasmine said. "Yeah, you got this A.J.!" Dylan said. Jasmine and Dylan looked more excited than I was. "I don't know guys, what if he doesn't like me?" I said. "Don't think about the what ifs," Jasmine said, "You're going to do great." "Okay I'll do this!" I said. I start walking towards where Noah was sitting. I turn around to see Jasmine and Dylan both give me two thumbs up. I guess they're more excited than I am, I thought.

I saw Noah, but he was talking to someone. "Maybe I can ask him tomorrow." I whispered to myself. I looked closer and saw a hand around Noah's waist.

I stepped closer to Noah and Rachel wrapping their arms around eachother. "This can't be happening." I whispered to myself. My eyes start to well up with tears. Rachel had already asked Noah. She had a prom sign and everything. I didn't know what to think or feel. I was heartbroken, and I couldn't do anything.

I ran towards Dylan and Jasmine. "how did it go?" Dylan said. He tried to say something , but I ran past him and Jasmine. Tears were streaming down my face as I walked out of the school. I went into my cay and started to cry harder.

It was 4:30 and I was still in the school parking lot. I cried for an hour, but it felt like hours. I stopped crying and realized that I didn't do anything. I didn't try to impress Noah in any way. Rachel had beat me to Noah and I was devastated. "This is the worst day ever." I say, hitting my head on the car wheel.

Chapter 6

It was Saturday and I was too tires to get out of my bed. Prom was in 2 weeks, so I decided to look at hair ideas. "this one is nice." I said. It was a high bun with braids. I screenshot the picture and turn off my phone.

I didn't know what to do. I thought my idea would work, but Rachel had to ruin it."Why does Rachel have to ruin everything?" I said to myself. "I don't understand, ' I said, "they broke up in 11th grade, how could they get back together?"
