Chapter Twelve : Homecoming Catastrophe
PROVIDENCE ACADEMY -- GYMNASIUM
The next day, I'm in the gym with the Beckett Crew, setting up some formal decorations for the homecoming dance this evening.
Leigh Ann and Sasha has gently hung up the "HOMECOMING DANCE" banner above the gym double doors.
"You guys be careful." I said to Leigh Ann and Sasha referring to the ladder.
"We are." Sasha said.
I small smile to myself and finishes up decorating.
"Hey, Carrey." Sebastian greeted me with a small smile.
"Hey, Sebastian." I greeted him.
"What time can I pick you up for the homecoming dance?" Sebastian asked.
"Um, how about 6:30 pm." I said.
"Good. And do you know what's cool?" Sebastian asked.
"You, me, Grayson, Leigh Ann and Sasha live on the same street?" I said.
"Yep." Sebastian replied with a small smile. "Do you think Trixie will be here?"
"Yeah, I think so." I said to him. "I just got a bad feeling that something's gonna happen."
"Nothing's gonna happen, except this homecoming dance. We're gonna have fun, dance, maybe, eat or drink something, and then, we'll just hangout together with the pals." Sebastian said to me with a small smile.
I small smile back at him.

In the Arts& crafts room, I finished my sunflower canvas painting and puts it on the display wall outside with a few other canvas paintings.
And yes, I put my name on it as well.
Grayson walks up to me, admiring my sunflower canvas painting.
"Your sunflower canvas painting is amazingly gorgeous." Grayson said.
"Thanks, Gray." I said to him.
"Have you and Roxy made amends?" Grayson asked and looks at me.
And I look at him. "Yeah, we talked. We're good."
"Both Sebastian and Roxy knows, Catty." Grayson said, referring to our magnet chemistry connection.
"I know, and like I already told you, maybe, much later down the line, but not now." I tell him. "I love Sebastian and you can't risk your friendship with him."
"I know." Grayson said and slowly walks away. "I'll see you later at the homecoming dance, Dahl."
"Okay." I said to him.

SCHOOL FIELD
Later that day, I'm sitting in the bleachers, enjoying the warm air.
"Catty?" Sebastian said, looking up at me from the sidewalk. "What are you doing out here?"
I look at him. "Needed some fresh air."
Sebastian walks up the steps and sits down next to me on the bleacher. "Or maybe, you have something on your mind. You don't have to talk about it if you don't want to, but whenever you're ready to talk about it, I'm always here for you."
"I know, that's why I love you." I said to him with a small smile.
"I love you too, Catty." Sebastian said to me.
I peck a kiss on his cheek and we gently holds each other's hands.

ROCHELLE'S DINER
That afternoon, Leigh Ann, Sasha and I are sitting in a booth table with our milkshakes with straws.
"Who's your date to the homecoming dance, Leigh Ann?" I asked.
"I'm going with Fenn and Sasha." Leigh Ann said.
I look at Sasha with a small smile. "Fen? The class clown?"
"He asked me and I said "yes", he's pretty cool." Sasha said.
"Seem like you have a romantic thing for him." Leigh Ann said.
"And Fen has a romantic thing for you too." I said.
Leigh Ann and I exchange small smiles at each other and Sasha rolls her eyes with a small smile.
"What is it? " 'Fasha'?" I said with a small smile.
Leigh Ann and I exchange playful chuckles with each other.
"Oh my gosh, you gals." Sasha said.
Leigh Ann, Sasha and I exchange playful chuckles with each other and sips on our milkshakes.

BECKETT HOUSE
After getting formally dressed for the homecoming dance, I gently walks down the stairs and into the living room to see my Mom dressed up in a dress and Dad wearing a suit.
And Sebastian there, wearing a tieless suit.
"You look amazing, CP." Sebastian said with a small smile.
"You look handsome yourself, Seb." I said to him with a small smile and looks at my parents. "Mom? Dad? We'll meet you guys at the homecoming dance."
"Alright, drive safely." My Dad said.
"I will." Sebastian said.
And Sebastian and I walks away.

PROVIDENCE ACADEMY -- GYMNASIUM
[Song: Houdini - Dua Lipa]
Later that evening, the academy students are formally dressed-up in their formal attires.
Young adult men dressed up in their formal suits and young adult women dressed up in their formal dresses.
And the grown-ups are chaperoning.
Everyone is on the dance floor, (the middle of the gym floor), dancing together.
Sebastian and I exchange smiles at each other. He twirls me around and gently spins me around and gently sets me back down on the floor.
And then, Leigh Ann and Sasha joins with Sebastian and Me and we dance together.
"I'm gonna go and find Grayson." Sebastian said.
"We're too girly for you, Seb?" Sasha asked.
"Nah, not really." Sebastian said.
Sebastian and Sasha exchange playful laughter with each other and he walks away.
[Song ends]
I look at my Dad talking to Principal Dean Barbara Hemming. They both look worried about something.
Catty (VO) Told you I had a bad feeling about something.
"Leigh Ann? Sasha? I'll be right back." I said to them.
"Okay." Leigh Ann said.
And I walks away.
In the hallway, My Sheriff Dad and Principal Dean Barbara Hemming are talking about the margarita punch bowl has been spiked with the Spice Jangle drug.
"Dad?" I said, slowly walks into the hallway.
"Carmina, sweetheart, everything's fine." My Dad tried to reassure me.
Catty (VO) But I could tell that's something off.
"Catty?" Sasha said, along with Sebastian, Grayson, and Leigh Ann.
"What's going on?" Leigh Ann asked me.
"I overheard Principal Dean Barbara and my Dad talking about the margarita punch bowl in spiked with the drug Spice Jangle." I tell them.
"Oh my gosh." Sasha said.
Suddenly, a yelp is from inside the gym. Me and the Beckett Crew walks back into the formally decorated gym and sees half of the academy young adult males and females students laying on the floor, even Alyssa and Shelley, are seizure-ing on the floor.
I become worried.
"Oh my gosh." I said, worried.
