Theo? I didn't know that he'd entered. Oh well, probably just didn't tell me or something?
Eh, I should vote for him. And for the girl... I'll do Hylla. I submitted the paper in. Now, it was time to wait for the results.

Homecoming was awesome. I could barely hear myself over all the sound. I even danced a bit!
It was soon time to announce the homecoming queen and king.
Principal Deliah, (which, mind you, I was not very fond of) walked up to the stage with a piece of paper in her hand, and a few others following behind her with crowns, those banner thingies that I forgot the name of, and flowers.
She tapped the microphone, making an echo ring across the room.
"Welcome, Laybell High," she announced. "To our homecoming! This year, out of all our contestants, the homecoming king is..."
Silence. I could feel the tension.
"THEODORE NOTT!" she yelled, and the noise rose up once more.
I clapped, of course, expecting these results.
"And for the homecoming queen, I'm excited to say that it is..."
"KRISTEN EELOPS!"
Half-hearted but loud applause.
Why hadn't I sensed this pairing sooner? Then I paled at an ugly thought as Kristen and Theo walked up to the stage, receiving all sorts of things like matching sashes.
It was a tradition for the homecoming queen and king to kiss.
Before, it wouldn't bother me, but now, I have a bad feeling in my gut. Was it... jealousy?
SO MANY PEOPLE VOTED, BUT I'M IN A VERY BIG RUSH RN SO BIG TY TO THEM, I MIGHT MENTION THEM LATER.
Anyway, you know this, but there's probably only a few more chapters until this book is D-O-N-E DONE! Ily guys so much!
