Does He Love Me?

Dance

It's Monday and it's 5:00 and the dance starts at 5:30.
Caleb hands me my knee length dress that the top is black and it's a spaghetti strap. The bottom is frilly and hot pink.
Caleb goes out and I get dressed. Caleb comes in and he grabs my black flats.

"You look pretty." Caleb says. "You're growing up."
I smile shyly.
"Are you ready to go?" He asks me.
"Yes." I say and he pushes me to the van.
He locks me in and drives us to the school. The dance is in the gym.

We arrive at the school and Collin is waiting.
"I'll pick you up at 7:30 okay?" He says as he pushes me out. I nod.
Collin takes me to the gym door and we pay and we go in.

It's dark with some lights and the dj is at the top of the gym.
He walks us in and he sits down across from me.
"Hello Tris."
"Hello Collin."
"You look nice."
"Thanks. As do you." I say back.
"You seem nervous Collin. Why?" I ask.
"I have never ask a girl to a dance."
"It's still the same me that you push in the hallways. I'm just dressed nicer."
He laughs.
"I know. It's just different."
"Different how."
"I guess just first girlfriend, first dance"
"I'm not dancing. I cant."
"That's not what I meant."

We hung out talking and eating pizza and snacks.
7:30 came around quick and Collin took me outside into the Cool autumn air.
He takes me into the van and locks me in for Caleb and he says goodbye. I say it and he shuts the door.
Caleb and I talk on the way home.

We finally get home and we watch TV and we go to bed.
