Just a before note: I'm not going to explain any names of who or whatever. Sorry for the spelling mistakes and horrible grammer. Any mistakes, please point them out :) I think that my homecoming officially started when I woke up on Saturday October 25th. I woke up way to early, and that’s when my excitement really crept in. I got up and eat a little, saving up my appetite for dinner. Then, I lazed around my house until about 11-ish, then I took my shower. That was the first time I shaved my armpits. It freaked me out slightly, but I was okay! Then I got dressed into comfortable clothes and went over to my aunts house to get my eyebrows plucked. Before I did though, Justin called me. Ah, my heart was pounding and I was smiling, but he had somewhat sad news. He said that he had a call back in Tacoma that was later than he expected, and might not be able to make it to Sarahs for pictures. I was sad, but I didn’t let him see it, so I wished him luck and we hung up. Then I went to my aunt to endure the torture of her plucking. I decided that my make up would take some time doing, so I asked her for her foundation and cover up, thinking that I would be taking it home with me. Not a chance. My aunt did my foundation and cover up for me, and I’m now glad, because I don’t think it would look as good as it did if she didn’t do it. Though I did look a bit orange… With my foundation and eyebrows looking nice, I went back home to finish my make up and do my hair. I finished my make up first, because it would be the hardest. I used my new blue eye shadow, and it surprisingly looked really nice. I was very proud of myself! I put on eyeliner under my eyelids, and attempted liquid on the top… that didn’t work out so well. I had to redo my right eye! Then I did my hair, curled it and made it look all nice. I timed everything so well, that I was able to leave the house and be at Sarahs at about the right time!
Before I got to Sarahs though, I had to drop off my stuff at Emilys, who lived really close to Sarah. Emily saw me, and was all like “Oh you look so pretty!” and I was like “Haha, thanks…” It was like, a little before 3:30 and she was still not dressed and ready. But I didn’t think much about it, because I was too busy thinking about going to Sarahs. I left and we went to Sarahs, not before circling her neighborhood trying to find her house, only to realize that we missed it and circled around for nothing. I was saying bye to my mom, when Emily (Sarahs sister, Emily) and her mom came out to greet me. They were all like “(Emily) Oh, Dani, you look so cute!” And, “(Mrs. Greene) I like your shoes!” I told them they matched my dress, and they were like “Oh they do!” After that whole ordeal, they took me up to Sarahs room, where I was met with a bunch of Disney characters. Her room is like, crazy-filled with Disney stuff! I was a bit overwhelmed, but I got over it haha. Sarah was just finishing up getting ready, with her shoes and jewelry. I had a bit of input with her shoes. Around the time when she was almost done, Emily asks me “So, do you have your ticket and ASB?” I froze, because I FORGOT THEM! I said “Oh gosh, I forgot! I guess I was thinking about everything else, that I totally spaced ont hat!” I called my brother, to see if he could bring it down to me. He couldn’t and I wasn’t surprised. Sarah said that we could drop by my house before heading down to Sumner. She finished and we went downstairs, she showed me Justins boutonnière, which was really nice looking! First Zach and his mom showed up. As Sarah was putting on his boutonniere, I was like checking it out. Zach, being the stupid Zach he is, said “Look at Dani, she’s like taking notes.” I blushed (my cheeks hurt by that time) and Sarah was like “Good, so you don’t have to go through this when Justin gets here!” I agreed. So, they finished taking pictures and Sarah gets a call. Its from Justin. Turns out… he’s lost! He went way too far. He got here, and I got my turn to put on the boutonniere (which I did much quicker than Sarah did, haha) and we took pictures. At first, Justin put his arm around my shoulders, but when we went to take outside pictures, he decided that his hand should go on my waist. Man oh man, I was freaking out inside! We took pictures inside by Sarahs piano, and then group shot of all of us, and then we left to my house. We had fun speeding in my 25 mph neighborhood, even though I told Zach that there were kids around. I ran inside and got my stuff, while thinking that “Oh man… Justin knows where I live now!” I got my stuff, got back in the car, and now we were off to Sumner!
We got to the high school, with everyone there already, and Zach honked. We saw Kevin Moe’s parents and Masons mom there. To us, Zach said “Man, if these parents weren’t here then I could’ve just honked and told these bitches to get a move on!” We all got out of the car (I was cold, and didn’t have my jacket) to take one group shot. Masons mom dropped my camera, but that was after she took the photo. Sarah noticed that Sarah Grant and I were wearing the same shoes, and that was really funny! And, you remember how I was cold? Well, I was complaining to Justin, and he rubbed his hands on my shoulders! I was like “kljseiowetmfdsaseek!” inside, haha. We got back into the car, and now we were off to the Cheesecake Factory!
This car ride was what I was getting all stressed out over for the past… oh, few weeks before homecoming. I was all nervous that it was going to be awkward. Turns out, I stressed out for nothing! Zach had techno on (Basshunter, haha) and we had a lot of fun! Justin pointed in the direction of his house, and I pointed him in the direction of my temple. We also had fun leading the way to the factory, because it was all like speeding a stuff. Major fun! And, Luke (DeDo, as he will be later called) flipped off people! And we saw a car with two guys with freaking long frizzy beards! Justin and I had a kick laughing about that.
We made it to the factory all in one piece (though, Zachs driving would suggest we wouldn’t) and I was freezing! My jacket was only so warm, but not warm enough. So, being the gentleman Justin is, he took off his coat and gave it to me! I was like “Aw, thank you Justin!” Mason saw, and he HAD to make a deal about it. He was like “Look! That’s cute!” Or whatever, and I was like rawr. Haha. But I didn’t think too much about it, because I was warmer than before and pretty happy. We got into the factory, and people stared. We were in formal clothing, so I would’ve stared too. Zachs grandpa was there, and he saved us a nice table. We got there, and I had the hard task of deciding on what to eat. That’s when I learned Justin was going to pay for our tab, and it just made me decision harder. I made a small fuss about it, but inside I was really happy. He is so sweet!! In the end, I had the Orange Chicken and he had some pasta. I wasn’t too excited about Chinese food, seeing as how I ate some recently, but I just picked something I knew I wouldn’t be worried about liking or not. I was playing it safe, so to speak. As we waited for our dinner, Justin found out that I was ticklish! Oh boy, dinner was totally more eventful when he tickled me. I was really happy that he found that out. By the time our dinner came, Justin had scooted over so close to me that he was touching me. I was so excited! I was trying not to eat a lot and make myself full, so I ate until I started feeling a bit full, and slowly stopped. Then, we were ordering dessert. I didn’t want a lot, so we shared a cake J That was something that I really liked. I wasn’t really in the mood for the dessert, because itw as really rich, but Justin said “Come on kid, help me finish this!” And I was like “Wait, kid?” Because my age is something that really bothers me with him. He said “I call everyone kid!” I rolled my eyes. The girls were going to the bathroom, and so did Zach, so I took this time to ask Sarah about Justins behavior. I said “Sarah, I have a question. Is it good that Justin is tickling me?” She smiled really big, and asked “Where is he tickling you?” I showed her my waist and knee, and her smile got bigger! “Girl, that’s a real good thing!” More excitement. We all got out, and Zach was still in the bathroom. Sarah was a bit worried, and so she texted him. He told her he would meet her outside. Again it was freezing, and again Justin gave me his jacket. Oh, happy day! So Zach finally comes out, and we learn that we were waiting for him to finish taking a huge dump! Justin and I were cracking up! With the happy mood already eshtablished, we had a more fun car ride back to SHS. Zach pumped his bass and we freaking raved! We were like, punching out fist into the air and dancing! At one point (or a few) Zach let go of the steering wheel and pumped both his fists into the air! One out of the driver side window, the other out of the sky light! On I-5, we saw a bus, and I said “I can just imagine us like driving by the bus and just raving, and them watching us like what the heck?!” They laughed, because we could’ve done it. We didn’t though.
We got to Sumner after some great raving, and it was actually a lot warmer there than in Tukwilla. But, I was still freezing in my dress, so Justin gave me his jacket again. Again, happy day! So, now we waited in line for a good while, and I took a few pictures. I saw Megans group, and they kinda freaked out over the fact that I was finally there, haha. They were like “OMG DANI! YOU LOOK SO PRETTY!” And I was like, “haha thanks!” We proceeded to the back of the line. Assman (Jake Kleeman, or whatever) was there with a rose and tux, looking pretty gay haha. He was waiting for Kyla, who wasn’t even going to show up! Man, we all got a kick out of that! I felt really happy to break the news to him. I’m such a bitch to him! Ha! So we got into the dance, and we were supposed to check out stuff in, but I didn’t, and I just put my stuff into Justins locker. Then, we proceeded to the gym, which was extremely dark and sexual. Justin was like “There are going to be many babies made tonight” I laughed and agreed.
Instead of dancing right away, we went into the second gym and took pictures. Justin and I took a couple photo. I was hoping the photographer was going to have my lay my hand on his chest, but I didn’t have any luck. Instead, we just leaned our heads towards each other and smiled. When we were done, I made fun of the photographer, “Lady, gentleman, lady, lady, gentleman.” Because she talked funny, haha. Then we took our group photo, and man that was funny business. First, Brittney had to completely lie on the ground, which she was a bit freaked by. And Justin was behind me in the picture, and he decides that he would tickle me. He did that two times before I elbowed him in the balls!! Oh man, I felt sooooo bad! I could’ve done it harder, but I refrained from it, because I realized what I was doing and stopped. But I still hit him, and wow it was bad.
After pictures, we danced! I realize that I’m not a good dancer, because I didn’t want to grind up on people with Justin right here, so I semi-danced, if that makes sense. So, Justin takes the initiative and takes my hands, and tried to teach me to dance! The first time didn’t go so well, because I was embarrassed, but he was determined and the second time was a bit more of a success!
And then… a slow song came on. This was the moment I was waiting for, to be quite honest. I asked him, “So, are we going to attempt this?” And he said “Of course!” Oh man, I was nervous, because I’d never slow danced with anyone before. Justin would be my first. We at first we started out like, his hand on my waist, my arm around his neck, and our hands out. We did that for a while, and then he moved my arm (the one he was holding) to his neck and so that both his hands were around my waist and both mine around his neck. Oh man, now I’m extremely like happy and nervous at the same time. We kept stepping on each other, and so he told me to step on his shoes. I blushed. I think this was around the time I told him that I’d never slow danced with anyone before. His response? “No way, you’re kidding me.” I was shocked! He thought that I would’ve slow danced with someone beforehand! He asked, “You never went to a school dance before?” I said, “Well, not with like a date. And besides, I stopped going to middle school dances after like my 3rd one. They were boring and too drama filled.” He understood. So, and the end of the first dance (yes, there was TWO!) we let go, and started dancing again. But I was still high off the fact that I slow danced with Justin. It was the best first slow dance I could’ve asked for.
So, we relaxed for a while and took a water break, and Metro Station came on!! I was really happy, and started singing! Sarah sang with me too, because I gave her the CD and we were both fans. Justin was making fun of me a little, but that didn’t stop me from singing to my fav band! After that song, we went back to dancing, and eventually Ravers Fantasy came on! Zach was totally happy about this. We raved in our group, jumping and having a blast.
Then, the Royalty Slow Dance thing came on, and Justin and I slow danced again. It was similar to the first time, but I was a bit more prepared. Again, I was on his toes, and we swayed in circles. He stopped us, since he was leading, but we eventually started to circle again. I wanted to rest my head on his shoulder so much, but I didn’t let myself do that. It could’ve gotten awkward, and I didn’t want that. But still, it was an amazing second slow dance.
Sometime after our second slow dance, I got my camera from Justins locker and took pictures. Michael and I had a flash war, haha. Kaitlyn joined our group sometime around this and so shes in some of our pictures. Justin was so spazzy about the flash of the camera. He would freak everytime he was caught by one. It was fun, and very cute.
It was now time for us to leave the dance and go to Sarahs for the after party! I think that Sarahs party was a lot more fun than the actual dance was. There was like, tons of people there; Sarah herself, Emily, Paul (Emilys boyfriend), Sarahs parents, Me, Justin, Zach, Emily J, Megan C, Megan, Michael, Mason, Brittney, Hayden, Josh, Allie, Stephanie, and Dedo. Lots of people in Sarahs house. But they didn’t all come at once. Our group did, but the others came at random intervals. Sarah lent out her clothes, and we went downstairs to eat snacks and watch Josh and Paul play Wii. I was laying down on the couch, and somehow Allie was laying on top of me, Justin at my feet, and Emily on my stomach. Justin decides that this is another perfect time to tickle me – when I’m not able to defend myself! So I was being tickled to death by Justin, which I didn’t have too much of a problem about, and Hayden wants to join in, so he tickles us too! Us, being mostly Allie and me! After that is all over and dealt with, I went upstairs to the bathroom, and when I came back down, no seats were left. But, haha, I made room next to Justin, so we were sitting like RIGHT next to each other, touching and everything J . Then we calm down and watch Beauty and the Beast. We all migrate to the floor, and Justin is left without a pillow. So, what do I do? Offer him my pillow! We weren’t touching as we were laying down, but man it was still really amazing. A little while into the movie, and people start leaving, like Justin. So, he left, but not before giving me a hug :D I didn’t want to get up from my spot lying on the ground, so I fell back and his hand got caught. He was like, “You wanna give me back my hand?” And after he left, I was out! Fell right asleep.
So that’s my amazing first homecoming… I couldn’t have asked for a better one!
