Hi
This is an odd story with a sad start and a good ending. It seems she is only going to prom with the quarterback because it is expected. But does the quarterback know that. Is Susie really the kind of girl Jon wants to go our with? Maybe she will be faithful to him.
Good luck in the contest.
Keep writing and stay healthy
Have a wonderful rest of the week.
Joan

This one-hundred-word story, Next Best Thing, has the proper word count and finds the day-late Jonathan getting an invitation for the next time. He's in the game.

An excellent entry for the Flash 100 writing prompt. Finally! A flash story with a happy ending!! I am guessing that Susie will have a much better time with Jon than with Harry. thanks for sharing. Good luck in the contest.
