But I was not expecting any miracles anyway.

The next morning everything seemed absolutely normal, until I opened my locker and noticed that Caleb stood next to me.

There is not even one person at our school who does not know who Caleb is.

He is the star of our football team, someone that all students dreamed to become friends with. Absolutely the last thing I expected to hear from him was asking me to prom!

For several seconds there, I really did believe it was some sick joke he was trying to play.

But he was dead serious. Actually, he seemed kind of worried waiting on me to say anything at all.

And when I finally managed to say “yes”, I felt a real pang of excitement. But the next thing I knew, I was already questioning what he wanted from me.

Megan was freaked out the moment told her what happened.

She told me that something about the whole prom thing seemed fishy and she reminded me that Caleb didn’t pay any attention to me before, so now asking me to prom seemed quite bizarre.

Honestly, I knew she was completely right about everything. But somehow, for the first time ever in probably forever, I allowed myself to have some hope.
