Marcel Styles [ON HOLD]

Soapy Chemistry

~A/N One shot for MrsEmilyHoranForeva

I would've included more details on the lab but it's been a while since I've done it.

------------------------------------------

We were almost done with Chemistry, and our teacher decided to give us an easy lab project to do the next day. Luckily, I was partnered with my longtime crush, Marcel Styles and after today's class which consisted of our teacher explaining how to do it and going over safety precautions, Marcel walked me to my locker.

"This is going to be so easy. Making soap is really basic." He said.

"Yeah, but let's hope that ours doesn't come out basic." I joked.

"We'll do fine."

"I hope so." I giggled as I let my brown hair out of it's ponytail.

"So I was thinking that we could discuss a strategy so that we'd finish quickly."

"Why the rush?"

"I was thinking that I could...maybe take you out after we finish...like on a date. I mean chemistry is gonna be our last class tomorrow and it's Friday and-"

"Yes, Marcel."

"Really? Awesome." He said with a smile.

"Alright, students, get to work." Our teacher said.

Marcel and I followed our system with ease and while he stirred, I got the fire ready, then in no time, we were already draining it. I tested the soap and was glad since it wasn't too basic, then Marcel offered to shape the soap and he shaped it into a heart. We went out to eat since it would take a while for the soap to dry, then he slid a paper to me and it said 'Will you be my girlfriend?' I looked up at him and saw that he was blushing.

"Are you serious?" I asked as I felt the heat rise to my cheeks.

He shyly nodded, then I gave him a small smile.

"Yes."

His face lit up and a dimpled grin graced his features, then after we finished eating, we headed back to get the soap. We shyly walked hand-in-hand as we talked, then heard whispers and murmurs about how we're finally together. When we got our soap, Marcel gave it to me as a gift and I shyly accepted it and we headed home.

"I know we only just started dating, Marcel... but you've already made me so happy." I blushed.

"You've made me happier. I honestly was scared that you'd reject me or that I'd make thing awkward and ruin our friendship."

"Well, none of that happened, thankfully." I smiled.

He retuned the smile, then kissed me before I went into my house and my mother greeted me from the kitchen.

"You two are so cute together!" She gushed.

"Thanks."

"Go get ready for your date."

"How... how'd you know?"

"He asked my permission, Sweetie."

"He's a gentleman."

"Exactly, now go get ready." She said.

"Alright." I laughed as she ushered me to my room.
