cuz you and i - [Max Mayfield]

Snowball

A few days later and now it was the snow ball, Belly wasn't much excited for the occasion as compared to the rest of the people, she didn't even know why she was going there, probably to see Max

She got out of her house and saw Steve's car parked there, she made her way inside the passenger's seat

"You didn't have to wait you know" she said softly as Steve started the car

"Yeah I didn't, I just came back after dropping Dustin off at the school" He said making her chuckle "How's your wound?" he asked

"It's bearable" she said "I don't even know why i am going to this stupid snow ball in this stupid ugly dress that I hate so much" she whined trying to lighten up the mood, Steve chuckled

"You're going to the ball, to dance with your crush, in your stupid beautiful dress, because you look awesome in that" Steve stopped the car once they were in front of the school "Now go I have a lot of things to do"

"Oh?" she said faking a hurting expression before making her way into the school

She saw Mike dancing with El, her eyes immediately looking for the redhead, she found her dancing with Lucas, her heart dropped at the sight, bit she continued walking and saw Dustin dancing with Nancy

"Shall we?" She heard a voice from behind her and saw an unfamiliar face smiling at her

"Honestly no?" she shook her head taking a seat at the corner she saw Jonathan clicking pictures of the students she gave him a soft smile which he returned

A few moments passed and by now atleast 5 guys have asked her to dance but her answer remained the same

"Shall we?" she heard a familiar voice looking up she found Jonathan holding out his hand "I know you've rejected like 5 guys, so i don't really have any hope"

"Were you stalking me Jonathan?" she asked teasing him

"No, no no, I wasn't stalking you" he panicked "I was worried about you, because you sat there alone rejecting everyone" he trailed

"I know I was teasing you" she said before taking his hand and leading him into the crowd

"I don't know how to dance alright?" he informed her which made her chuckle

"Yeah, I can see" she said as she looked over to find Dustin dancing with Nancy

Dustin looked at her and she gave him a look pointing at both of them, he got the hint, and swirled Nancy around as Belly did the same with Jonathan, he grew confused, before landing in Nancy's hold

Dustin and Belly stood watching them, she looked around and saw Max alone looking at her, she walked towards the readhead

"You wanna get outta here?" Belly asked asked the girl

"Yes, this place is not my type anyway" and they both made their way out to the parking lot where Steve stood beside his car, probably waiting on the girl

"You wanna drop us?" She asked getting inside the car on the backseat with Max, she turned up the radio looking at Max, giving her a look as Steve started the car, he didn't question anything, about which the two were thankful

"May I never miss the thrill of being near you, And if takes a couple of years
To turn your tears to laughter
I will do what I feel to be right" Belly sang at the top of her lungs

"No more lonely nights (Never be another)
No more lonely nights
You're my guiding light
Day or night I'm always there
And I won't go away until you tell me so
No, I'll never go away" Max joined in, Steve sighed at the girls behaviour

"Yes, I know (I know) what I feel (I feel) to be right
No more lonely nights (Never be another)
No more lonely nights
You're my guiding light
Day or night I'm always there"
Before joining in himself

He dropped both Belly and Max off at Belly's house before bidding his goodbyes, they walked inside the house as Max's eyes widened

"God and you live by yourself?" She asked the girl, shocked

"Pretty much, dad's never in town so yeah" she explained before going upstairs making Max follow her and opening the door before dramatically bowing and to which Max chuckled

They walked inside Belly sat on her bed admiring the girl who was in front of her before grabbing a camera from the bedside table, she pointed it at Max

"What are you doing?" she covered her face

"C'mon smile, please, for me?" she asked as Max gave her a totally noticable fake smile "Alright, I'll click at you" Belly said making Max confused

"Isn't it supposed to be click at 3?" Max asked Belly just shook her head before pointing the camera at her again

"Now" she said "I, love, you" and Max blushed at the most perfect moment Belly clicked the picture

"Can we rewind to what you said?" Max took a seat beside Belly who was looking at the picture she just clicked

"Yeah, I just said" she paused "Oh i don't remember what I said" she joked as Max tackled her, making her fall on her back and Max went on the top they both laughed

"What did you say again?" Max asked smiling

"Alright, alright" Belly gave in "I like you Max, I don't know if you're-" she suddenly stopped and sat back up making Max sit across from her on the bed

"What is it?"

"That was just an awkward position for this conversation" she said "Alright, as I said, I like you, a lot, Max, I don't know if you're like that" she took a deep breath "If you like girls, and after this I'd understand if you wanted to break off our friendship and never talk to me again-"

"Yes actually" Max cut her off "I do want to end our friendship" Belly looked at her with hurt in her eyes but she nodded anyway "I wanna be your girlfriend Belly" she said which made Belly lok at her almost instantly

"W-what did you just say?" she stuttered being a blushing mess

"Do you wanna date, Isabell Wilson?" she asked

"Yes, I wanna date you" She said "Oh god how long I have waited for this" she said before leaning in as so did Max, as Belly softly pushed her lips on Max's

Max's hands went around Belly's neck, as Belly's hand stayed on Max's waist

It was the perfect night, for the two, after all they've been through together, this happiness was the least they deserved
