HO-CO

It´s been weeks since we´d started working on deco, somehow all of it looks really pretty. Our poster and the stars got complimented by seniors as well. Everytime the credit was always given to me. It´s one of the first times I've ever got acknowledged and appreciated, it made me feel so happy. Today was the scary but exciting day of homecoming, sadly since I signed up for a set-up shift I have to get up at 8.

I grumble to myself as I walk into the leadership room, for the 6th time in a week. My eyes widen when I see that almost all of my class is here and I ran to sit next to my friend Lahna. She smiles and hugs me giggling about how excited she is for HO-CO.

¨I-i am too..¨, I say slightly high-pitched as I glance subtly at Tyler. He seemed to be watching our seniors as they were decorating the gym. I hoisted myself up and started stringing the lights around the gym. Excitedly hoping that maybe just maybe Tyler would come to HO-CO and maybe we could talk?

At HO-CO I sadly walk over to the droopy ticket counter out in the cold. My dress was a bit short but REALLY REALLY poofy. It looked like I was in 5th grade at one of those kiddy birthday parties. I boredly kick my feet in the air and just watch as all the passerby enter and leave as the night grows on.
