when we arrived at the dance Dad told us to go in without him, he was going to spread flyers around the school advertising the dojo.

Miguel and I roamed the halls to the gym, in awkward silence. our hands brushed against each other with each step we took, Miguel then took his chance and slid his hand in mine. I tensed up a bit at his action then he stopped in front of me.

"Uhm, I'm sorry. it's okay if you dont wanna uh, hold my hand..." he started nervously.

"Miggy. it's fine." I smiled tightening my grip.

we walked into the gym hand in hand, as the music was blaring and kids were awkwardly dancing in their Halloween costumes. "hey look it's Eli and dem!" I exclaimed pointing over to my friends. Miguel dragged me over to them.

eli's face immediately fell when saw Miguel's hand in mine. "when did this happen?" Demetri questions pointing at our hands.

"uh Miggy asked me to the dance last night. that's all!" I said, Miguel smiled holding our hands up.

"skeleton classic. and Cher, cool." Demetri said trying to change the subject.

"thanks! I like your sorcerer costume." Miguel nodded, smiling. here comes Demetri's amulet rant.

"sorcerer?" Demetri started, there it is! "please. I'm a necromancer." he continued pointing to his face.

"wha?" Miguel questioned.

"didn't you see the amulet?" Demetri asked in disbelief. I laugh holding, almost hugging, Miguel's arm.

"getting a little touchy now are we." eli mumbled I smiled, pretending I didn't hear him.

"so are you a regular doctor or—-"

"plastic surgeon. I fix lips."

"nice."

that was an awkward conversation... "Miggy let's go dance!" I exclaimed pulling him over to the dance floor.

"okay okay I'm coming slow down." he said chuckling. we were in the middle of the dance floor dancing just as awkward as everyone else. slightly bouncing and moving our hips to the music.

the DJ switched the tempo of the song to slow. Miguel stood there not knowing what to do, so, I walked closer towards him. putting my arms around his neck, him slowly placing his hands on my hips. we start slowly swaying together, our eye contact not breaking, Miguel's smile bigger than ever.

Miguel hesitantly started leaning in, tilting his head. before I knew it, his lips were pressed against mine. my heart was racing. the kiss was passionate, we both slowly pulled away, resting our foreheads against each other, slightly out of breath. "oh my god." Miguel whispers.

our moment was cut short when Eli and Demetri came up to us, "we uh, gotta go to the bathroom. that punch is going right through me." Demetri said pulling Miguel away, he gave me an apologetic look as he was being dragged away, I laugh a little still processing what had happened.

I saw Aisha standing alone at the snack table, Aisha and I had met each other at robot camp. we have talked now and again since then. "hey!" I said as I approached Aisha. she smiled.

"soo what are you supposed to be?" I asked Aisha going to touch the salt shaker on her head.

"salt." she stated numbly shaking salt on the table. I gave her a sad frown.
