I call the shots
Chapter 10
The school bell went
off signalling the end of exams. Everyone jumped and screamed.
π―π―♂π―π―♂
The whole school was
noisy; everyone went around, saying their goodbyes and chatting.
Chantelle wasn’t really
excited, because she knew that she was going to offer a course which she didn’t like and
was going to have to stay home with her parents for a long time before going to
the university.
She also wasn’t happy
because she and Lewis were over. She didn’t like being alone.
She was bored and didn’t know what to do.
Hmm, I have an idea she
thought to herself. She went to the cafeteria where almost one was.
“Hello people. Come around”, she said.
π
Everyone came around to
listen to what she had to say.
“You all want to have fun this evening?”
π
“Yeah", they all shouted.
“Alright then, I want to see you all at Rivers lounge at
7pm, the bill is on me. Now, who’s with me?” she asked.
“Yay!!!” the all shouted.
“Alright, cool”, she said giving a victorious smile.ππ
She spotted her friends
and approached them.
“You throwing a party, that’s cool”, Betty said.
“Yeah, I hope you’ll both be there”.
“Why not? I’m down with
it”, Betty said.
“I can’t make it, you know my parents, and I’m not the
party type”, Amanda said.
“Oh c’mon Mandy. It’s just a way of relieving you from the stress of
school and exams", Chantelle said faking a frown.☹
“Mmm, I can’t. I’m sorry C.C”.
“So, that means you won’t be there for prom?” Betty asked.
“Prom? I totally forgot about that”, Chantelle said.
“Mmmm, I might make it for Prom”, Amanda said.
“Mhmm, I see”, Chantelle said.
“C.C do you have a date or a dress ready”? Betty
asked.
“Didn’t you hear me? I totally forgot about it. But I’ll sure pick
out a dress and get a date”.
ππ
“Who, Lewis?” Betty asked.
“No, I’ve not spoken to him ever since we started exams”.
“Mmm, he asked me out to Prom and I said yes”.
π¬π¬
“Betty?!!” Amanda said.
“Don’t worry, I’m cool with it. You can have my leftoverπ”, Chantelle
said, and Betty frowned.
“I’m sorry, I didn’t mean that. I’m cool. Lewis and I
are not dating anymore, so you can have him”.
They talked for a while
and departed to their various homes.
▪*************▪
At the party, Chantelle
wore a red short dressπ, which was really fitting and revealing. She
held her hair in a bunπ±πΌ♀ and applied light
make upππ. She paired her dress with silver stilettosπ‘.
Betty on the other hand wore a pair of shorts
and a crop topπ and paired it up with her brown bootsπ’.
They were both having
fun at the party. A lot of people came.
They dancedππΌπΊπΌ,
drankπ»π₯, grinded and did all sort of things.
Chantelle made the D.J
play her favourite track and she went to the dance floor and twerkedππΌ,
other girls joined in and they all had fun.
After sometime
Chantelle decided to sit and and just have a drink. As she sat there, she
noticed someone staring at her and she looked towards that direction and saw a
non-familiar handsome face.
He smiled at her and
she smiled back.
πππ
After some few minutes,
he approached her.
“Hello, I’m Harry”, he said sticking out his hand for a handshake.
✋πΌ
“I’m Chantelle”, she said shaking his handπ€
“Nice name. it suites you. You’re very pretty”.
“Thanks☺. Are you new in this neighbourhood? She asked.
“Not really, I just came home to visit. And I normally hang
out at here, but I heard the bill is someone, is it Christmasππ
?” he said and
Chantelle laughed.
ππππ
“Are you in the university?” she asked
“Yeah”.
“What university?”
“Howard University”.
“Oh cool. What course are you offering?”
“Psychology”.
“Wow, I bet you can read me right now?”
“You can betπ”.
“Mmm, so tell me, what am I thinking about?”π€
“Meπ”.
“Mhmm, cocky much? I like that”.
π
“Can we take a walk outside, here is really kind of hot”, he said.
“Sure”, she said following him out.
They talked for a
really long time and she followed him home.
▪*************
Two weeks later Graduation/ prom night
“And the student of the year goes to Amanda Hastings”, the dean
said.
Everyone got up and
applauded her.
ππΌππΌ
Chantelle was genuinely
happy for her. Chantelle also got some awards, for best student in the science
department and the most influential student.
After the graduation,
everyone quickly rushed back home to prepare for prom.
“So, who are you going with?” Amanda asked
Chantelle.
“My boyfriend, duh..”
“Who? Harry? Will he even agree to come to a high school
prom?”
“Yeah, of course, he’s coming”.
“Alright”.
“I got to go, I’ll see you at prom, and you better come with a
date”, Chantelle said, blowing a kiss to Amanda and she left.
Prom night
On hearing the door
bell, Chantelle quickly rushed to the door and opened it.
“Wow, you look so gorgeous”, Harry said pecking
her.
π
“And you don’t look bad yourself”, she said, blushing☺.
Chantelle was wearing a
black long dress with gold patterns on it, she had her hair down, had a slight
make up on, and she paired her dress with black heels.
Harry on the other hand
was wearing a black suit with a golden brown shirt and a black tie.
“Are you ready?” he said.
“Yeah”.
He took her hands and
walked her to the car. They both got in and he drove off.

had a lot of fun.

the prom queen and Lewis was awarded the Prom king.
