"Oh my gosh! You look absolutely radiant Hunny," Sam said, her eyes tearing up when Leigh came down the stairs."I didn’t look half as beautiful as you do now when I had my own prom years ago and I still totally killed it." She continued, moving over to check Leigh out more closely."Thank you Mom," Leigh said, feeling elated.Following his mother's footsteps, Tommy also took baby steps over and giggled at Leigh, clapping his hands in glee."See? Even Tommy thinks you look beautiful."She bent over to pick her little brother up. Throwing him on the air and rubbing her nose to his. "Thanks my little man.""How come you never told me thanks when I told you just how pretty you are over and over again upstairs?" Thea whined, coming down behind Leigh.Leigh rolled her eyes at the whine in her best friend's voice. "I thanked you Thea, but you wanted me to say thank you for every time you commented," Leigh pointed out, balancing Tommy

By the time they eventually made it inside, prom was well under way. The large assembly hall had been redecorated into a fancy dance hall for the prom. There were banners, confetti, posters and decorative pieces everywhere. Bright lights flooded the room from hanging tiny bulbs that splayed different colours and made the hall look like something out of a fairytale. About a dozen bouquets of flowers of gumdrop pink and cheery yellow were scattered carefully along the raised podium where an elaborate banner read Saints Academy Senior Prom! In bold letters that matched the colours of the flowers. Leigh tried to absorb everything at once and could only think of how dreamy it all looked.The DJ had on a classic song and there were a few people already dancing on the makeshift dancefloor. Some were at the food stand which really was just a long table that held a large bowl of fruit punch, small chops, pastries of all kinds, small plastic plates of chips and packs of bottle water.

"Oh my Gosh!" Leigh exclaimed, staring wide eyed at the really tall building in front of her. Willis was driving through the parking lot of the elaborate building. It stretched upwards for as far as she could see through the window of the car. That had to be some dope building Leigh thought, her mouth hanging open in awe."Where in the world are we?" She asked when she finally recovered from staring in wonder."We are at the Luminous Hotels." He announced like it was the most obvious thing in the world."The what?" Now, she stared at him in disbelief."Luminous." He provided. "Luminous Hotels.""The same one that won hotel of the year in the country?" She still couldn't believe it. She knew cause they had been given homework to write an essay on it and she had done her research."How can you.... Did you have this planned before hand?" No. He couldn't have. She knew that even when one made a reservation months in advance, they still had to wa

“Don’t hold back Willis, give in and give me everything.” “You know I had a plan,” Willis began, voice deceitfully calm in a stark contrast to how his hands were racing along the fine lines of her body as he guided her or rather stumbled with her back into the penthouse.“Mmmm, you did?” Far from calm herself, Leigh struggled to keep her voice light and playful.“Sure I did,” they were more or less swaying together to the soft music now. “I was planning to seduce you with dinner,” he nuzzled her neck and she almost melted against him. “A little stargazing.”“I think…” Think straight Leigh! “I think we did stargaze.”“Mmmm, maybe. Then I thought if it wasn’t too cold then the pool…” He was nibbling on her throat now, tasting the sweet flesh just above her collarbone where her blood beat franti

THE FINAL CHAPTERLeigh woke up to the intense feeling of pleasure coursing through her body. She turned, expecting to roll back into Willis’ arms but instead was yanked back by her hips which refused to budge.

She ran. Even when her heart broke into shards and all she wanted to do was scream and scream, She ran. Past the elevators, past the gate, onto the busy streets, yet she kept on running. She could hear him behind her, the heavy footsteps that pounded the pavement just behind her could be none other than his, So she ran. She would not let him catch up with her, she would not let herself be drawn back into his arms. She ran. When her legs felt like logs of wood on fire, she did not slow down not even for a breath of fresh air her burning lungs so desperately craved. Running was all that was left, was all she could do. She had to get as far away from him as she could. She had spent her last bit of courage telling him that story, she had none left. How could she bear to face him now? She ran. She heard shouts, screams, someone was calling her name, saying something, telling her to stop. Throu

"Is that the new girl? The one that transferred?" Willis asked his best buddy Jer, already licking his lips. She was a pretty little thing, all curved in the right places and she had a slight blush staining her cheeks as she walked down the hall. So she was a shy one. Willis thought. He liked them fierce, but he could do shy. He already felt the bud of anticipation blooming deep in his gut as he thought of ways he could make the pretty shy girl become fierce while screaming... "Dude!" Jer's fingers snapped in front of his eyes bringing him out of his wayward thoughts. "What?" He asked irritated. "She's the one. Leigh. Leigh Raekens. You gonna do her?" Willis made a show of leisurely throwing his can Pepsi into the thrash nearby. The can rolled round its tip twice before dropping in with a clank. A self satisfied smirk lit up his lips as the girls in the hall swooned at him. "Consider her already Done." "Dude she's not your type," Jer argued. "She's shy, reserved, doesn't even

"Get your ass moving!" Carol grunted, pushing Leigh out of the car since she was sitting right by the door and refused to budge. "We’re going to miss the game!" She said fiercely, giving Leigh another hard push. She might look all small and petite but the girl was solid and as much as Carol pushed, she didn’t budge an inch. "Oh, come on. What is wrong with you? Are you having stage fright or something? You're not even going to be on stage," Carol let out a sigh of frustration. She would have gone out through the other door but Thea was busy retouching her make-up and refused to budge either. Did they both have something planned and were not letting her in on it? "Chill out Carol," Leigh told her. "Let's wait for Thea, then we can all go together." She reasoned. "Nah, don't wait for me. You guys go ahead and make sure we get the best seats in the house." Damn Thea and her big mouth. Did Thea not see that she was deliberately stalling here? Carol shot her a look and said "See? Even

Meanwhile, Willis was having after hours’ practice with his co-captain and best buddy Jeremy. It was barely two days to the biggest and final game of the season. As much as he wanted to get his head solely focused on the game, thoughts of Leigh kept popping up in them like the balls he was bouncing around Jeremy now. He knew she was out shopping and doing girly stuff with her friends but he also wished she would call him. He ached to hear her voice, to touch her, to feel her lips slide against his, to....Snap out of it Reeler, get your head in the game."You okay?"

It went round the rim once and dropped in the net.Unconvinced, Jeremy snatched the ball and went through basic routine with Willis. "That don't sound like you're okay man. Something's up?" Jer persisted, he knew if he pushed just
