A Lifetime of Love

Chapter 5

I'm yours:
"Just tell him!!" Karisma said, "it's not that easy u know" I told her, we were talking about how Dylan likes me and how I kinda like him back, "being in a relationship can be hard sometimes but fun at most times" she told me, "Risma I'm scared either 1- I'll screw it up or 2- he'll say no" I said, "stop worrying and just go ask him" she looked back from the table we were sitting on, "look he's right there with his new friends I guess" she said, "okay I'm going" I stood up walked a few steps then I came back on the table and said "maybe I should do it later he seems pretty busy with his 'friends'" "no! Just tell his friends to go away so u two can talk in private and tell him how u feel, then ask him out" she said, "okay, thanks Risma" I said and I stood up, took a deep breath, and walked towards Dylan and his friends, "hey guys I really need to talk to Dylan on something vv important" I told them, and they left "see ya Dylan" one of them said, "hey Mandy! What's that vv important thing that we need to talk about" he said smiling, "imma say this fast like a ripped band-aid, I HAVE A CRUSH ON U TOO" I quickly said it, "what? I didn't hear a word u said" Dylan told me, "slower" he continued, "I, have, a, cru-sh, on, you, too" I said it slower, "I know, I heard u the first time, I just wanted u to say it again" he started giggling, I smiled and punched him in the arm as a joke, "bye" he said and left, I walked back to Risma and she smiled and said "how'd it go?" "Good well he made me repeat it twice" I told her and she laughed, after we finished our drinks we went to the studio.
During the break from our group rehearsal, I got a message from Dylan that said "meet me in the park at 5pm on the dot" I messaged him back "okay", took a drink and went back dancing, "5,6,7,8 one,two,three,four,five,six in and fall fall fall, up! hands hands, POINT UR TOES RISMA c'mon we haven't got all day!" Mrs.Katie said yelling at us, "and turn, turn, turn, leap, pirouettes, and Mandy look at the light look at the light! Perfect! Now run off the stage" she continued, oh I haven't mentioned our group dance is called "where have all the children gone?" And it's a dark contemporary piece, I really like it cause I have never done something like this before, I kinda like to switch it up, I once had a dark lyrical piece but I was to scared the song might give me nightmares so we just changed it into classic lyrical. It was 4:30 and I was dismissed from class to get ready and meet Dylan.
When I got to our room I took a quick shower and wore a cropped tank that said "Mrs. Irwin" because ya know, I love me some Ash, I wore some black jeggings with a large rip in the knees, I put my hair in a high pony with two hairs falling from the sided to frame my face, I wear waterproof mascara, liquid liner, eyeliner, some blush and a lipgloss, I look at my self one last time and head out, it was 4:55 I still got five minutes until I get there, I strolled all the way to the park, I sit on the swings because I still didn't find Dylan, i sigh and look at my phone, "5:00" he said to be here 5 on the dot, so i just scrolled through my phone, and took some snaps, I finally see Dylan walking towards me, I stand up and ran to hug him, he smiled and we both said "hey", he grabbed my hand and we walked all the way behind the bushes in front of the beach and I found a picnic sheet on the grass with a drink (not alcohol) some plates and a picnic basket on the sheet, I smile in shock and say "u did this!" He smiled and said "with a help from Risma" I hugged him and we sat down, I guess I now know why Mrs. Katie dismissed me from her class, she never does, Dylan and I just talk and talk all through out the sun set, "ahhh look at the gorgeous sunset and sky" I say, "it's so amazing" Dylan says, we just gaze at it, Dylan excused himself, when he got back, I saw to hoodies with him, one that says "I'm Yours" with an arrow on the left and the other one says the same thing but the arrow on the other direction, I really loved it, we both wore it, and he said "will do the honors to be mine?" He asked I sprung up on my feet and then hugged him "Yes a million times Yes!", I sat back down and then the sky was pure black with stars shining above, we lied down and gazed at the beautiful shining star, he grabbed my phone, and turned on "Shining Star" by Bars and Melody, I kissed him on the cheek, then we checked the time and it was 7 pm so we decided to get back to our rooms, I got in mine and Risma's room, I saw her there sitting on her bed so I went and hugged her and thanked her, I told her what happened, she just smiled through the entire time, "well I really hope u had fun with him" she continued smiling.
I got ready for bed and went to sleep with a smile on my face
