Aliyah Staton

When we walked into the school we were escorted along with the other students entering over to a line where photos were being taken. After getting our photo over with we wandered out to the dance floor where I spotted Georgia, Selena, and Mary with their dates.

"I guess I will let you be with your friends; maybe you will save a dance for me. Let me know if you need a ride home," Amaro said smiling down at me.

"Ok. Thanks for the ride," I replied. I felt my back turn cold when he removed his hand from where it had been placed since we were in the parking lot; for some reason it felt wrong for him to let me go.

"Welcome. Have a good night Aliyah," he said before walking off probably to find his friends. I headed over to my friends to see what they were up to.

"Hey guys!" I said as I walked up. Georgia instantly took me into a huge hug.

"I thought that you were going to ditch us. What took you so long?" She said now looking me over. "You do look awesome though if I must say." She added with a smile.

"My car wouldn't start so I had to find a different ride." I hoped that she wouldn't pry too much about it.

For some reason I really didn't want to talk to her about Amaro; I still didn't know how I felt about him. At least now I knew that he had a more sensitive side, and he didn't have to be a jerk all the time; but how did I know how often he was going to show me the sensitive side compared to the jerk side. Agh, I just had so much on my mind I needed to just not think about everything and let myself have a good night.

"I love this song! Come dance with me," Georgia belted out with glee as she grabbed my arm and dragged me to the dance floor.

I was doing a good job at not thinking about all my problems. Between listening to Georgia talk and all the dancing, I was kind of just lost in my own little world. It was like my Cinderella night; where for once everything could just be perfect.

"May I cut in?" A voice came from behind me while Georgia and I were dancing to a fast beat song about to come to an end.

I turned around to see a tall man with blond hair that hung just above his eyebrows. He had perfect features and bright blue eyes. I found myself unable to speak, just taking in the man in front of me.

"Well who were you thinking about cutting out?" Georgia asked from behind me. I turned to see that she had a flirtatious smile on her face. I turned back to the man when he started speaking again.

"I would like to dance with you," looking down at me, "but I'm here all night so I'm sure I can fit you in somewhere," he continued giving Georgia a sexy smile. I heard her let out a little giggle as she placed her hand on my shoulder.

"As long as you promise to take care of my friend while I leave her with you," Georgia said flashing him her perfect smile again.

"You don't have to worry about that," he replied giving her a smile before locking eyes with me again.

Georgia nodded and gave my shoulder a squeeze as she walked away. When she was a few steps away she turned around and gave me a quick wink while mouthing 'he's hot'; I couldn't deny that. I heard the music change to a slow song and the guy grabbed me around the waist and pulled me closer to his body. What the hell? Don't I get a say in if I want to dance or not? No one even bothered to ask me. Oh screw it, he's hot.

"So may I ask your name pretty lady?" The guy asked as he began to sway us side to side.

"Ali, what's yours?" I asked, trying to keep my focus on the buttons of his shirt so I wouldn't get distracted by his beautiful face.
