Going alone

"Here, this is for you." I told Tom as I handed him a tie. 
                          
"Thanks, what is this for exactly." He asked as I kissed him quickly. 
                          
"My dress for the ball, and your an alpha." I said as I hung up my dress and he shook his head. 
                          
"Okay besides that." He said "I want to talk to you about that." 
                          
"Alright." I agreed sitting on the bed as he sat next to me. 
                          
"Well I've been thinking a little." He started as I nodded. 
                          
"Are you breaking up with me." I asked as he shook his head. 
                          
"Not at all, no." He assured as I took a breath. 
                          
"Okay continue." I said as he took my hands. 
                          
"I want to take Sarah to the ball, I just figured with all the drama." He said as I kinda felt my heart crack. 
                          
"That sounds like a great idea." I said as he sighed. 
                          
"So your not mad at me, because I will dance with you two." He said as I shook my head. 
                          
"Your being a concerned friend, why would I be mad." I asked but I was more sad. 
                          
"Because I know you've been talking about this for a while." He said as I nodded. 
                          
"You'll be around, just with another girl." I said as set the tie with his others in his drawer. 
                          
"Okay then its settled, you know I love you right." He said as I smiled softly at his words. 
                          
"I love you too." I said as he kissed me for a few seconds. 
                          
"Okay I'll see you, i'm gonna go call Sarah back." He said as he left and I sighed. 
                          
What did I just agree to. The rest of that night was pretty boring. 
                          
"Night." Tom said as I faced the other way. 
                          
"Night." I said back as I let the sleep take me. 
                          
I woke up at about noon and had to start getting ready. Taking a long shower. 
                          
"Morning." Ellie said as I took the plate she gave me. 
                          
"Morning." I said as she looked at my dress. 
                          
"You ready for tonight." She asked as I shrugged. 
                          
"I'm happy and pretty sad. So I guess I'll just wait for them to even out or something." I said as she sat next to me. 
                          
"Ah yes, Tom taking Sarah. But only as a friend of course." She said as I laughed gently. 
                          
"Yeah, but I'll be fine. I have to start getting ready." I said as she left me alone. 
                          
It took maybe 2 hours to curl my hair, do my makeup. I also managed to get my dress on all by myself. 
                          
"Babe, I'm gonna go now. I'll see you there." Tom said as I took a deep breath. 
                          
"Yeah." 
                          
"Okay, save me a dance." He said as I looked at the door. 
                          
"Of course." I replied as I felt him smile. 
                          
"Alright then, I love you." He said as I blinked.
