It's prom day and I'm waiting for the time to go by faster so I can get ready and see my beautiful girl. I'm currently laying down next to Dimitri who's asleep.

He shifts and then throws his arm around me. I smile as he squeezes me and then he sits up, "what the hell?" He groans and moves to his other side giving me his back.

"Go away I'm busy." I scoff and get more comfortable in his bed. There's a light knock at his door and then Nikolai peaks his head in.

"My, My, if it isn't my best friend. What, Delilah didn't want to hang out with you?." He scowls at me and I scoot so he can lay down. Dimitri sighs heavily and sits up.

"Why do you two idiots never let me sleep in peace." I look at my phone and and look back at Dimitri. "Mitri it's three thirty." He rolls his eyes as if I said the stupidest thing ever. "Yea dipshit ever heard of naps?" Geez someone is cranky

"Anyways, I came because Delilah said I need to be less antisocial. Whatever that means." I smile and throw my leg over Nikolai, who scowls and pushes me off.

"Dimitri is that nova in the corner?" Nikolai stands up to see nova in her cute little bed. Me and Dimitri spent over two hours in the store buying nova everything she could need. I'm concerned how much Dimitri will spend if he has an actual child one day.

"Give her back!" Dimitri shakes his head and picks nova up, "I'm babysitting today, I'm not going to prom." The room went silent.

Absolutely not! "You're going. Mitri even if you don't have a date you'll still be with us, come on." He sighs and looks at his desk, his eyes get teary for a second and I look to where he's staring at and I realize why he doesn't want to go. Shit.

Olivia always dreamed of going to prom with Dimitri. "Go for her, she would have wanted you to go. Live for her Dimi." Nikolai pat his shoulder and Dimitri nods. "Okay I'll go." I smile and head into his closet.

Good thing Dimitri has a good amount of suits. I pick one out and show it to him, he nods in approval and I set it on his bed. "Good now that we cleared this up let's go eat I'm starving." I hear sighs from both of them and I roll my eyes as I leave the room.

I walk downstairs to see Natalia and my dad laughing in the living room. I stop in my tracks and stare at my dad, I've never seen a woman make him laugh that hard. "Ronan I need to leave its Delilah's prom night I need to help her and Cynthia get ready." He sighs and stands up and looks in my direction.

"Alek is something wrong son?" I shake my head and go up to Natalia and give her a hug. "Oh my!" She laughs a little and rubs my back. I then hug my dad tighter and he combs his fingers through my hair.

"Someone woke up happy today." Dad smiles at me and I nod, "it's prom night guys. I'm going to see Cynthia looking stunning tonight." Natalia smiles at me and then looks behind me, Nikolai and Dimitri are standing there. "Oh Nikolai you're here." She give him a hug and then they quietly talk to each other.

I'm suddenly jealous, I look at dad who's glaring at Nikolai, "will you be mad at me if I shoot your best friend." I glare at dad, "go ahead." I smack Dimitri.

"I will run away." Dimitri smiles and turns to dad, "perfect, dad should I get your favorite gun." Dad laughs and hugs both of us at the same time.

"Ok boys I have to go, please send pictures. Adios!" Natalia smiles at all of us and dad walks her to her car. I know where Delilah got her bubbly persona from. Her mother is the sweetest woman ever.

"Ok let's drive around Delilah's block to spy on the girls." Dimitri rubs his temples as he sighs at Nikolai's proposal. "I can literally hack into the cameras." I smile and run into Dimitri's room.

"Out of my chair and don't touch." He pushes me off his chair and it takes him five minutes to hack into the camera.

"Stalkers." Dimitri coughs and I raise the volume. The girls are laying down on the bed looking at magazines and debating on how to do their hair.

"Are you sure you haven't seen nova at Aleksandrs house? I'm going to ugly cry Cynthia." Nikolai glares at Dimitri who huffs and takes a pic of nova and sends it to Delilah.

We watch as she opens the message and she visibly relaxes. "I'm going to spit into his food the next time I see him." Our eyes widen and I laugh. "Delilah!" Cynthia laughs and she looks at the camera.

"Oh shit do you think she knows." We all lean into the computer, "hey Delilah does the camera always blink red?" Our eyes widen and we drop down as if they can actually see us.

"Abort mission, Abort! Turn it off."
I'm watching as Dimitri try's to shake me off of him.

"No? That's so strange" they get up closer to the camera and Cynthia's eyes widen, "You Stalkers! Stop watching us Aleksandr and Nikolai!" Dimitri quickly turns the computer off.

"Ok guys if they ask about it. Deny. Deny. Deny. Got it." We all nod and sit on the floor staring at the ground. "So let's go get food or what?" We all him and we enter the kitchen and find our devil of a cook.

"You." She stares at me as if I gave her some type of disease. "I'm hungry," she narrows her eyes at me "then find something to eat, you devils spawn," she looks at Nikolai and Dimitri and pats their cheek lovingly, "handsome as always my boys." They smile at me like the assholes they are which just makes me scowl.

The day went by fast, and I stare at myself and do a little more of touch ups on my hair. I can't wait to see my Cynthia, god when I'm with her everything seems to disappear. I worship the ground Cynthia walks on, I love seeing her smiles the sound of her laughter. The way her eyes only light up when I'm in the room.

Seeing her in her pretty dress will be one of my core memories I just know it. I'm thankful she managed to come around and give me the chance to make her happy. I was crushing on her bad from afar in class, I knew she was too good for me, she still is.

But call me selfish I won't ever give her up. I need Cynthia the way I need air. She's mine and I'm utterly hers until my last breath. I can't wait to tell our kids we were highschool sweethearts.

A future with Cynthia is all I want. It's her or nothing,
