55. James Hetfield // prom night

This story is about prom night at high school (senior year) and you're the popular girl while James necessarily isn't and he likes you a lot and asks you out to prom and surprisingly, you say yes and go with him. But when he takes you home, you two get freaky
(I know James, Lars and Cliff didn't meet until 82 but pretend they've been friends since childhood like James and Dave have)
Kinks: hair pulling
PART TWO WILL HAVE SMUT

James's pov

She was so beautiful. The most beautiful girl I had ever seen. I stood by my locker, admiring Y/n from afar.

"James! Cmon man, we gotta go," Lars said and smacked my head.

"Oh! You dickhead," I spat as I gazed at Y/n.

She wore a black skirt with a white button up shirt slightly tucked into it with some slip on white shoes. Her hair was down and it was beautiful. She glanced over at me and smiled with a wave. I blushed and waved back as I heard the bell ring.

"Cmon, James!!" Dave says angrily and pulls my hair.

"Ahh! You dick!" I say and smack his head as they laugh and we continue to walk to class together.

Me and Y/n have been friends since freshman year. I got beaten up by her boyfriend who she's still with now, and she yelled at him and that was the day we became friends. She helped me and got me cleaned up which was embarrassing since I had a bloody nose and a black eye.

"James!"

I look at Cliff who caught up to us and squeezed in between me and Lars.

"Dude, I just asked out Samantha. She's going with me to the prom!" Cliff exclaimed with a smile.

I nod, "Good for you, dude."

He sighs, "You still haven't asked Y/n yet! Have you? Dude, she clearly likes you and of course you like her! Don't be a wimp! Just ask her out."

I nod and saw Y/n being chased by her boyfriend down the hall but he caught her and threw her over his shoulder and smacked her ass. She giggled loudly as I rolled my eyes and took a turn down the hall.

"Yeah, we'll I've been trying. All I know is that she has a boyfriend. Why would she like me when she has a boyfriend?"

Cliff shrugs, "Samantha and I could find out if Y/n does. Samantha and Y/n are friends. Cmon man, it'll be fun. Mitch talks and flirts with all of Y/n's friends, who cares if you ask her out."

"I do! He'll kick my ass like he did Freshman year."

Lars and Dave laugh, "Noooo...okay maybe. But it's fun to try anyways," Lars says.

"Yeah right," I say and go to class.

•••

I was eating at lunch with Dave and Lars. I didn't know where Cliff was but I didn't care much.

"James!! James!"

I saw Cliff run into the cafeteria and crash on a seat at our table and then turned to us.

"Me and Samantha were hanging out with Y/n and her douchy popular friend group in the library, we were talking and when Y/n's boyfriend left, we asked Y/n if she liked anyone else besides Mitch, she said yes!"

I raise my brows, "Okay, who?"

"You!"

I felt my heart skip a beat as I punched Cliff in the arm, "You're not fucking with me, right?"

He shook his head, "No! 110% honest. Ask her to the prom, man! After school today!"

I nod, "Okay, fine. Because you told me she likes me I will."
