Cole's Pov

They both are dancing together and they are laughing together. Luna is laughing with Ray. She looks so happy with him that she didn't even realise my presence.

"Luna!", Finally a word comes out of my mouth.

"Cole!", She stops dancing with him and looks at me with surprise.

"What are you doing here?" she asks.

"What are you doing with him?", I ask her looking at her and then towards Ray.

"What?" She asks with a frown.

"Nothing, Char's check-up finished early so I thought to come here", I tell her.

"Did you come here for me?"

"Yes"

To my surprise, she walks toward me and places a kiss on my lips. She pulls away and tells me, "Thank you for coming Love", and like that my all anger is gone. I can never stay mad at her for more than five minutes and that scares me. Because of my this weakness, I feel Luna takes me for granted.

"Now you can be my partner", She tells me with excitement shining in her eyes.

"Then who will be my partner?", Ray asks her.

"You can take rest now",

"That's not fair Lu, now that your boyfriend has come, you are kicking me aside", Ray pouts.

"Yes", Luna tells him with a smug face. And that makes me so happy. Now Ray will realise who is more important to Luna.

"Mr Kent I will dance with Cole now", Luna tells a man. Who is dressed in a black skin-tight type of suit.

"Who is Cole?", He asks her.

"My boyfriend, he is my escort for the Ball",

"I thought Ray is your escort",

"No! Cole had some work today, So I thought he will not make it for today's practice, so I asked Ray to take his place for one day", She explains.

"So who is Ray escorting then?",

"No one, I am just here because my Mom asked me to be here to look after things, as she is president of society club", I didn't know that Ray is not escorting anyone.

"Did nobody ask you to escort them?", I ask him.

"Many girls did, but I declined to escort them",

"Why?", I ask him in surprise.

"Because I don't want to", He shrugs.

I can't believe Ray Wright doesn't want to escort anyone to the Ball. I thought like Luna he likes these things, but maybe I was wrong.

"Does your Boyfriend know the quadrille, Luna?", Mr Kent asks Luna.

"No", I answer for her.

"You new kids have made a joke of debutant ball, you have forgotten that debutant ball is our tradition. How can someone who doesn't know quadrille be your escort, Luna?",

"I can learn", I tell him.

"You will learn? Do you know these kids like your girlfriend, have been preparing for debutant ball since they were babies, and you want to learn in two weeks?", He asks me bitterly.

"It's just a dance, I can learn"

"It's not just dancing young man that you have to learn, There are rules and manners of the debutant ball that you don't know. You don't belong here, you don't belong with them", He tells the things, which I already know.

"Mr Kent! It is my choice to choose an escort for the debutant ball, and I have chosen Cole because I know what is right for me. And I think you have forgotten the main rule of debutant ball, that is to respect the choice of debutant", Luna tells him sharply.

"I can learn everything about debutant ball Mr Kent, I am a fast learner", I tell him with a smile. I know I don't belong here, but I also know that I belong with Luna.

"Okay then come will start with quadrille first. You are going to first learn the quadrille from me, then you are going to Dance with Luna",

"Okay",

Luna cups my face and tells me, "I know you can do this", she places a soft kiss on my lips and goes.

........................

Luna was wrong, I can't do this. I don't belong here people as Ray belongs here who knows the steps of the quadrille. I tried to learn those steps but it's hard for me I don't dance, I hate dancing. I hate it more now because I fell down when Mr Kent was teaching me the steps of the quadrille. I saw the look on everyone's faces when I fell down their looks were screaming loudly that I don't belong here with them with Luna. The worst was Luna's look she was feeling bad for me and hated that, I wanted to make her proud around her people but instead of making her proud I embarrassed her.

"Cole", I turn around and see Luna, standing at the door of the washroom.

"Hey, I am sorry", I blurt out not knowing what to say.

"You don't have to be sorry about anything", She walks to me and fixes my hair with her hands, "You didn't do anything wrong",

"I fell down and I embarrassed by you in front of everyone", I tell her.

"You didn't embarrass me, Cole, you could never embarrass me", She strokes my face  and a chill runs down my back. Does she even know what her touch does to me?

"Do you even know what your touch does to me?", The words come out of my mouth without my knowledge.

"What?"

"Your touch makes me alive",

She kisses me, and I melt into her, she pulls out and asks me, "Tell me what my kiss makes you feel?"

Suddenly I realise Luna is in Men's washroom and any minute anyone can walk in so I say,"You are in a men's washroom Luna",

"You are a very unromantic person Mr Cole Davis" She shakes her head in disbelief.

"But you are in Men's washroom Lu",

"I don't care"

"Anybody can walk in here"

She turns around and I feel a sudden ache in my chest because I thought she is leaving but to my surprise, she locks the door of the washroom and walks to me and kisses me again.

"I have locked the door Mr Cole, no one will come now tell me now what my kiss does to you?"

"It makes me feel like I have been struck down by 100 volts of electricity"

She pulls out my t-shirt and runs her fingers around my bare chest. She comes close to me and brushes her lips around my neck, "Tell me what this does to you?", She asks.

"I can show you", I tell her.

"Then show me, take off my clothes and show me Cole", She tells me, She is my end and my beginning she is my everything she is my life.
