Celebrity Crush

Chapter 32

The school parking lot was packed. I pulled into a space closer to the front entrance. Luke had sent me a picture of him in his outfit before Kimi and I had left. He told me he would be at the punch table.

I cut the engine and sighed. This felt like it was going to be a long night for sure.

I placed my phone and keys in my bag and then opened the door. I had pulled my hood on my head to protect myself from to many people recognizing me.

I walked toward the door to wait on mom and Kimi. I stood on the bottom step and over looked the parking lot. I saw Kimi's car come in the lot and take a place next to my jeep. I watched her hurry in the car and then jump out.

I couldn't help but laugh at her antics. She walked up toward me.

“Maybe you should text your mom. She should be here already.”

I huff and pull out my phone.

“Laura, Kimi!”

I drop my phone back in my purse as we heard my mom's voice. I look up as she comes into view. I look at her outfit. She's wearing a short red dress with a little black in it. Her feet are wearing a pair of black boots. She has this cloak type thing over all of it. I was surprise by the black and red wig but it made sense.

After her and Robert announce their relationship, she will be easily recognized. One of her hands was holding the type of mask with stick. I couldn't see the jewelry very clear though. Her other hand was holding an arm.

I followed that arm up to the person she was holding. I knew it was Robert. He was dressed in a tux instead of a costume. The shirt and jacket were both black and the vest inside was gold which matched his mask. His eyes stood out behind the mask.

“Oh look at the two of you.”

Mom was being extra nice for some reason. I felt Kimi stiffen beside me and I looked to where her gaze was.

At first all I saw was this black blob walking toward us. As the person got closer I knew who it was. Sarah was standing in front of us in a black cloak. Her face held a blue and golden mask. I could tell that the dress underneath the cloak must be blue.

She was smirking at me. Then her eyes looked down at my outfit. I watched her eyes widen at my dress. I couldn't help the sudden confidence that I got just by the look on her face.

Kimi placed her hand on my arm. I looked toward mom and Robert. I looked at him very closely. His eyes were running over me from head to toe. His eyes widen and I watched him gulp.

“Well I guess we should all go inside. We all know what everyone looks like now so let the fun begin, replied my mother.

I watched Sarah roll her eyes. Mom and Robert stepped through the door first followed by Sarah. I looked at Kimi and suddenly realized she would be alone for the dance. She wasn't fond of Luke so I doubt she would hang with us.

She gave me an encouraging smile.

“Don't worry about me Laura. Your plan will work. Robert was looking you up and down just then. So I know that tonight will work in your favor.”

I gave her a hug and then walked through the door. The hall to the school wasn't done all fancy as I followed the familiar floor. The music from the dance was loud as I got closer. I turned the corner and saw the entrance to the gym.

The door was like some kind haunted mansion thing. There was this fake spider web hanging down. They must have had a fog machine because the door was covered in fog. I couldn't even see the inside of the gym. I walked through the door and into the gym.

The floor was covered in fog like a cemetery would be. There were skeletons hanging by their necks from the ceiling and other stuff hanging as well.

I walked toward the punch table. I looked at the food and stuff. There were different assortments of candy, red velvet cake with fake looking spiders and fake worms all over it.

I got down to the punch and looked inside the bowl. The bowl was full of a dark red liquid made to look like blood I suppose. I turned my head and found this silver and white cloak standing to the side.

I smiled. I walked over to the person in the cloak. My eyes noticed other people’s costumes. There were a few girls that were dressed in renaissance type dresses. There was a light blue one, a dark blue one, a black one, and a white one.

Some girls were dressed in over exposed costumes. They kind of looked like sluts in my opinion. One girl was dressed in a blue fairy type outfit, the dress stopped above her knees which meant if she bent over she would show her ass to the world.

Another girl was dressed in a pirate outfit. It was the same thing with the skirt. I mean seriously did they go shopping at some lingerie store for costumes. One girl was dressed as a genie. Even though it showed off her stomach it didn't look very slutty to me.

I stopped by the guy in the cloak. I tapped his shoulder and he turned around. I looked at his face as found a black mask. The familiar brown eyes of Luke were staring back at me.

He gave me a grin and then bowed.

He moved the cloak back some and I could see his outfit better. He had this white contrast jacket on top with a black shirt underneath and black pants. His feet held a pair of medieval type boots.

“Well don't you look handsome?”

He waved his hand off.

“Oh it's nothing. I found most of this at home. My mom went out and found the mask and cloak. You though look spectacular, beautiful even.”

My cheeks darkened.

“Oh well thank you.”

“I hope you wouldn't mind removing the hood though. You can put it right back, I just want to see the whole costume.”

I sighed and removed the hood from my head.

“Well my queen you are very beautiful tonight.”

I grinned and that was when he finally saw the teeth.

“Well a vampire queen at that. I must say I am one lucky commoner to be in the presence of royalty.”

I couldn't help the giggle that came out of my mouth. I pulled the hood back on my head.

“Well my dear queen would you like to have this dance with me?”

I wasn't the best dancer so I was a little hesitant.

“Don't worry Laura I am a good dancer. We can just dance normal and not the other way everyone else is dancing.”

I looked toward the dance floor and noticed some of them were dancing like they would at a night club. It was funny when the teachers stopped them from doing that.

I looked back at Luke and just nodded. He took my hand and led us to the dance floor. We stopped close to the middle and he placed one of my hands on his shoulder. He took the other hand and held it in his and we just swayed and dance to the music.

My eyes scanned the floor and saw no one I knew or recognized. I looked toward the tables with the chaperones were at. I found Robert sitting alone at a table. His eyes were scanning the floor. He looked out of place at a high school dance.

I felt Luke pull me closer.

“Who are you looking at so intently?”

My cheeks darkened. I hadn't realized I had been staring so much. I turned my head back toward Luke.

“Oh no one, it's no one important.”

He gave me this look like he didn't believe me. I sighed and just decided to find out if he would help me.

“Okay fine. It's my mom's boyfriend. The thing is she is horrible to him and I kind of like the guy. I was wondering...”

“If I would help you make him jealous?”

I gave a sheepish grin. He looked to be thinking.

“Yeah, sure, let me know what is appropriate.”

“Well you can't kiss me. If you can make it look real but it must be fake, like with your hand on my mouth or something. I think that would work.”

He nods his head.

“Okay I understand.”

Suddenly he pulled away and fixed our position. He changed my hands to his neck and his hands around my waist. Then he began moving us into an open space. My eyes peaked over toward the table to find Robert had found us.

His eyes were looking at us very intently. He looked like he was a little upset though. I couldn't help but smirk internally.

“Is it working?”

His breath tickled the inside of my ear. I felt tingles come up my spine which caused me to shiver.

“It seems to be.”

Robert's posture looked even worse now. He looked like he was doing everything in his power to stay in his seat. Suddenly we stopped dancing. I noticed the song had stopped.

“Come on. Let’s find a table to sit at shall we?”

I laughed and nodded. He held my hand as we walked over toward the tables. The tables for the students had either orange table cloths or black ones. Each table had one creepy looking candle in the center. The chairs had this white sash on over them which made them have the look of ghosts.

Luke pulled out my chair and I took a seat.

“Do you want any punch or candy?”

I nodded. It was Halloween of course I wanted candy.

He grinned and walked off toward the punch and candy table. I sat back in the chair and decided to remove my hood. I could see a lot better without it on my head. I sighed. I just didn't feel very good about faking this whole thing with Luke, it was childish.

I mean seriously, was I the best choice for Robert? Well if I had to choose between myself and my mom of course I would choose myself. The only problem is mom hasn't really found anyone since the divorce. He just might be the right one for her if she would let him in. I might ruin that for her.

These thoughts in my head were going to be the end of me one day. Suddenly this hand was in front of my face. The hand was holding a plastic glass full of punch. I grabbed the glass and smelled of the liquid.

“It's something called a twilightini. They apparently found the recipe online and it was cheaper than making anything else.”

I nodded. Luke took the seat right next to me scooting the chair closer. I took a small sip of the liquid. It tasted so good. It tasted like raspberry. I looked inside the glass and saw raspberries on top, I guess as a garnish.

He placed a plate in front of me. There was an assortment of candy and then some popcorn. I placed the glass on the table and then grabbed some popcorn. It had different flavors like sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and some spices.

“Spartan spirit popcorn. Something else from Twilight.”

I grinned.

“Do you have something against Twilight?”

My eyes found Robert across the room. My mom was sitting with him now. His attention was occupied for now. My eyes looked at my mom and she was scanning the floor. I could tell she was getting worried because she couldn't find me.

“Why are you a fan or something?”

Robert was talking to her now and pointing his hand toward me. He noticed my gaze and waved. Mom looked in the direction and she looked relieved. Robert was still looking at me but his gaze was something different.

I returned my attention to Luke and smiled.

“Actually Kimi and I are the biggest fans.”

“Well that makes sense. The two of you are always going on about vampires.”

I sighed and nodded. We continued eating the food on our plate. Suddenly this shadow came across the table. I looked up and found my sister. I huffed and then gulped. She was going to ruin everything.

“Mom sent me over here. She was worried about you. She didn't see Kimi and then her mom senses were going hay wire again.”

I looked over at Luke. He was looking at me waiting for me to introduce her.

“Luke this is my sister Sarah. Sarah this is one of my friends, Luke.”

Sarah then noticed Luke sitting next to me. She moved toward the seat across from us. Right before she sat down she removed the cloak.

She was wearing this blue strapless dress that was ruffled at the bottom. There was a bow on the side. Her feet had a pair of blue heels that showed off her entire foot.

She laid the cloak over her chair and sat down. I sighed and crossed my arms. I looked at Luke and his attention was on Sarah.

“It's nice to meet you Sarah. I never knew she had a sister, especially one so gorgeous.”

I knew Sarah could care less about Luke but she was just trying to get under my skin. She grinned and then they started flirting right in front of me. Everything was ruined now, thanks Sarah.

My eyes looked back over toward Robert. I watched mom get up and take this man's hand and head toward the dance floor. I was confused. I thought she would have danced with Robert. I took this opportunity to get away from the table.

Sarah was almost half way across the table now and it wouldn't be long before her boobs were going to come out of the dress. She had Luke's every attention now which meant she had to keep her attention on him and not me.

I pulled my hood back on my head and stood to my feet. Neither one of them looked up as I walked away from the table. I walked toward the chaperone section of the dance. I caught Robert's gaze and he smiled.

He suddenly looked so relaxed. I approached the table and smiled at him.

“Mind if I sit with you for a little bit? Sarah took away my friend.”

“Of course you can Laura.”

I took the seat on the other side of him, not the one my mom had been sitting in.

“Who is mom dancing with?”

“Oh she's dancing with one of your teachers or something. I didn't feel like dancing.”

He looked upset.

“Robert, are you alright?”

I placed my hand on his shoulder. I felt him relax into my touch. I couldn't help the grin that took its place on my lips.

“I am fine. I just haven't ever been to one these before.”

I was shocked. I mean he was so good looking he had to have been to a dance before.

“Well didn't you go to your senior prom?”

“No I didn't. With everything that happened with the acting thing I wasn't able to. Plus it wasn't my sort of thing.”

I sighed and stood to my feet.

“Robert do you know how to dance?”

“Of course.”

He lifted his head up and smiled. I knew he knew how to dance because I watched the making of Twilight and he said that he could dance and play all those instruments.

I held out my hand.

“Come on Robert. You can dance with me. You might just teach me a few things.”

The smile that came to his lips surprised me. He took my hand and stood to his feet. He pulled me toward the dance floor. I noticed that mom wasn't anywhere in sight on the dance floor.

He took my hand in his and placed his other hand on my waist. I couldn't believe I was dancing with Robert Pattinson at my high school Halloween dance. It was like some dream come true. He held my hand so tenderly as well as my waist.

He was such a good dancer. He twirled me around the floor and I couldn't stop the giggle that came out of my mouth. He was laughing as well.

“I sure hope that I made your dance special.”

I smiled up at him, “Of course you did. I mean it isn't every day that I get to dance with a hot celebrity.”

I grinned up at him. He looked upset, but he was only faking it.

“Oh so you only care about who I am. Nothing else right.”

I smiled but I knew something in my eyes changed. There were other things about this moment that I couldn't tell him about. Like the fact that I was dancing with this perfect man that I loved. I would, no doubt, never get this chance again.

He noticed the look in my eyes change and his expression changed. Suddenly I was aware that the music stopped and we were just staring at each other. His eyes were searching my face and then they suddenly stopped at my lips.

He looked like he was arguing with himself. I guess the argument didn't last long because his head started leaning in.

“Robert there you are. Aw you danced with Laura.”

Mom's voice snapped Robert out of his daze. I was so mad. Everyone was ruining this night in so many fucking ways.

Robert dropped his hands from me and then mom took his arm in her hands. She looked at me and smiled. She had no idea what was going on.

I tried my best to smile back but it was forced. I think she knew it to.

“Thanks for the dance Robert. I will be right back; I have to go to the restroom.”

Robert's eyes followed me as I walked away. The tears in my eyes were about to overflow and stream down my cheeks. I pushed through the doors and found it empty. I blinked and the tears fell from my eyes. I looked in the mirror and noticed how stupid I was.

I couldn't believe I let myself think that he cared about me in some way. He just got caught up in the moment of everything. I was imagining things that weren't there. This was as embarrassing as it was ever going to get.

I pulled out my cell phone and found Kimi!!

EMERGENCY RESTROOM NOW! PLEASE I NEED YOU.

I just laid my things on the counter and just leaned against it. I waited about five minutes and then the door came open and banged against the wall. Kimi came straight toward me.

Her gaze held so many questions. I told her everything, from Sarah and Robert, along with my mom interrupting us.

Kimi's lips turned up in a grin.

“Well I tried to tell you. He likes you, I don't know about love but he definitely likes you.”

I just shook my head at her.

***
For the rest of the dance I hung out with Kimi. We even danced together. I really don't think it went the way Kimi wanted. Sarah came and found me and Kimi later during the dance.

Kimi and I were sitting at a table conversing about Ben and school. We didn't want to talk about everything that was happening around us.

“Laura Mom wanted to let you know that they are leaving. I am not just yet. Your friend Luke seems like fun. Just tell them I won't be home tonight. I suggest you leave as well. They will come looking for you if you don't.”

I sigh and look at Kimi. She gives me a tired smile. I look at my phone and find the time later than I thought it was, 10:35.

We stand up and give each other hugs. We walk out together and toward our cars. Yawning I tell her, "Goodnight and drive carefully.”

“I will. I have to wear my seat belt now or else mom will get pissed.”

I laugh and then get in my jeep. I sigh and the start the engine. This night has been long and nothing like I expected. I back out of the parking lot and then head home. The night has gotten chilly and I turn up the heat in the car.

I rub my hands together as I sit at the last light before my street. I turn up the radio listening to the station.

“Well it's been one heck of a night. The trick or treaters have all left the roads so anyone driving should be doing great. Well enough of the small talk let's get to the music. Here is the lovely Taylor Swift with her number one song Love Story.”

I turn the volume up as the song plays through my speakers.

We were both young when I first saw you I close my eyes
And the flashback starts I'm standing there
On a balcony in summer air
See the lights
See the party, the ball gowns
I see you make your way through the crowd
And say hello, little did I know
That you were Romeo, you were throwing pebbles
And my daddy said stay away from Juliet
And I was crying on the staircase
Begging you please don't go, and I said
Romeo take me somewhere we can be alone
I'll be waiting all there's left to do is run You'll be the prince and I'll be the princess
It's a love story baby just say yes
So I sneak out to the garden to see you
We keep quiet 'cause we're dead if they knew
So close your eyes Escape this town for a little while
'Cause you were Romeo, I was a scarlet letter
And my daddy said stay away from Juliet
But you were everything to me
I was begging you please don't go and I said
Romeo take me somewhere we can be alone
I'll be waiting all there's left to do is run
You'll be the prince and I'll be the princess
It's a love story baby just say yes
Romeo save me, they try to tell me how to feel
This love is difficult, but it's real
Don't be afraid, we'll make it out of this mess
It's a love story baby just say yes Oh oh
I got tired of waiting
Wondering if you were ever coming around
My faith in you is fading
When I met you on the outskirts of town, and I said
Romeo save me I've been feeling so alone I keep waiting for you but you never come
Is this in my head? I don't know what to think
He knelt to the ground and pulled out a ring
And said, marry me Juliet
You'll never have to be alone I love you and that's all I really know
I talked to your dad, go pick out a white dress
It's a love story baby just say yes
Oh, oh, oh, oh
'Cause we were both young when I first saw you


By the time the song finished I was home. Mom's car was sitting in the drive already. This told me that mom and Robert had left way before Sarah had told me.

I huffed as I got out of the jeep. I made my way to the front door and pushed it open. The warm toasty air hit my skin and I was happy to be home. There was just something about home that made me feel so happy and content. I sighed as I closed the door behind me.
I heard commotion from upstairs and rolled my eyes.

I walked toward the kitchen for something to drink. I was craving bottle water for some strange reason. As I walked toward the kitchen I removed my mask and then untied the hood.

I stepped in the kitchen and walked over toward the fridge. I was thankful to be out of part of the costume. I don't understand how people back in those times wore stuff like this.
I grabbed bottle water and then walked toward a stool.

I took a seat and then pulled my feet up toward me. I untied the top knot and then removed my shoes. I sighed in relief, my feet were about to fall off. I heard footsteps coming toward the kitchen.

I stood from the stool and held my bottle in one hand and my shoes in another. I saw the light go out in the living room and dining room. I scrunched my eyebrows and walked out. The room was pitch black, I couldn't see anything.

It was Halloween night and I was scared of the fucking dark. I took in a deep breath and walked in the darkness. I could feel someone in the room but I shrugged it off. Suddenly I felt a hand grab my hand and intertwine our fingers. The hand felt so familiar, the hand I held during our dance.

Then hand then pulled me toward the owner and I was pressed against him and the wall. I felt him lean in toward my neck and breathe deeply. I could hear his ragged and heavy breathing. Suddenly a light from a car outside shown in through the window.

Robert didn't have his mask on any more. His face shown as brightly and without hesitation. I looked in his eyes and then he began leaning toward me.

This time no one stopped him. Nothing stopped his lips from meeting mine. He moved his lips against mine in such a loving manner. I was suddenly so embarrassed that I didn't know how to kiss the correct way.

My inexperience didn't apparently matter to him. We kissed with so much passion. He asked for permission by running his tongue on my bottom lip. I opened hesitantly but he came right on in. He tasted like cigarettes and mints. I was drowning in his taste, I never wanted to stop.

We would have stayed there longer if it hadn't been for the car horn outside. Robert slowly stopped, like he didn't want to really want to stop. He pulled back and then I realized the light from the foyer was still on.

I could see his face now. There wasn't any discomfort or regret on his face. In fact he gave me a smile and then pecked my lips.

“I have wanted to do that since the night of the ruined diner.”

I was surprised to say the least. I couldn't speak though, I was in shock and I was trying to get my breath back.

“Well you should get to bed. I need to turn out the lights in the rest of the house.”

I grinned but didn't make an effort to move. He chuckled.

“We will talk later. Either tomorrow or Monday, I promise.”

I sighed and reluctantly turned toward the stairs. He turned me back around though and pressed his lips to mine again. It was just a simple one this time filled with so much passion that I couldn't second guess anything.

I smiled and then ran toward the stairs. I was smiling the whole way to my room. I couldn't believe my first kiss had been from Robert Pattinson. I guess the night did go according to plan.
