"I can't believe it," Rapunzel squealed. "Tonight's the night!" She continued as she apply some lipgloss on.

"And you look gorgeous in that dress." Elsa examined her from head to toe as she did Anna's braids.

The girls were applying the final touches before going to the dance - make ups. Anna and Elsa were doing each other's braids, Heather was doing a bun and Ruffnut was applying eyeliner when Astrid just came inside the crowded room.

"Oh my God Astrid, where have you been?" Heather pulled her to fix her hair after finnishing her fine bun. She let Astrid sat on the chair and started fixing her messy hair.

"I made a new friend." Astrid practically sounded like a little girl. She smiled joyfully for the cause of letting go of her anger and jealousy.
"That's nice but we need to hurry. We don't want to be late." Heather combed the Astrid's blonde hair.

The gym was perfectly outdone by the volunteers. The lighting was simply miraculous, the disco ball was slowly twirling up on the cieling, the food was great, the songs were aesthetic and the decorations was outstanding. Pastel coloured balloons were tied to the tables, ribbons were everywhere at the perfect spots and the cookies and punches looked appealing. The source of light which was coming from behind the curtains reflected on the purple and pink disco ball, making the surrounding colour turn into those two colours.

"Oh my God you guys, this is really beautiful. I could almost cry but I don't want to look like a clown." Rapunzel wave the air at her face dramatically, preventing herself from crying.

"This is the result of our hardwork." Anna held Rapunzel by the shoulders, referring to Star Butterfly, Pinkie Pie and everyone else who participated.

Rainbow Dash's band - The Rainbooms were playing awesome music on the stage while the cheerleading squad broke down with some dance moves before the slow part of the song came.

The pupils of AD High found their partners and slow danced together under the disco ball to the Rainbooms. The girls paired up with their boyfriends, leaving Astrid at the table with various food. She took a drink of the purple punch (grape juice) and drank normally while leaning against the beige wall in the shadows.

Honey and Tadashi were dancing too. The only difference was they both knew each other so well enough to have anxiety. They were only looking at each other the whole time, chatting, laughing, dancing.

"So anyway, he made a deal with me, saying that he will ask Gogo if I ask you since he just know that I like you." Honey laughed at his silliness.

"So I'm here because of a dare?" Honey wrapped both hands around Tadashi's neck as his hands find their way to her waist. "And for the fact that I have a crush on you." He smiled sweetly at her giggles.

"You're such a dork," she said playfully. The straps on her shoulders kept falling to the side everytime she moved but Tadashi couldn't care less. He was with the girl of his dream.

"Hey I need to tell you something." Tadashi made her stop laughing but still smiling. "What?" Her teeth were showing.

"You know all those time when I called you honey?" Tadashi was blushing like what he was about to say was embrassing. "Yeah?" She dragged the 'a' as she said it. Her head tilted sideways a little at about 45 degrees.

"I was actually referring honey to-"

"Darling? Dear? Pumpkin?" Honey laughed. She was too much but he laughed too. "Yeah." His hair was already messy after too much of laughing.

Honey hugged him, laughing softly. "That's so cheesy." She whispered into his ear. Tadashi couldn't see any reason for whispering but he did so too. "I know right?"

At the other side of the gym, Hiro and Gogo were dancing awkwardly together. They kept avoiding each other's eyes and the softness of Gogo's hand made Hiro feel all tingly and the smell of his scent made it scarier every second.

Gogo wasn't a very good dancer herself and Hiro knew. At one moment, she accidentally tripped over Hiro's black polished shoes and fell towards him. They didn't fall onto the floor but the fall made her leaned towards Hiro which looked like they were hugging. "I'm sorry," said Gogo quietly.

Hiro laughed and suddenly have the urge to look at her. He had grown quite tall, in fact, taller then her. He was almost as Tadashi's height and Gogo was almost as Honey's.

Gogo's chin was still on his shoulders before he carefully pulled away and nudged her chin up to look at his eyes. "I didn't say this earlier because I thought that I wanted to hear it from you first," he said after staring at her for a while. Her eyes reflected the purple and pink lights on the disco ball when she looked up to him.

"But, I may have a crush on you," he admitted. He no longer felt afraid. He just couldn't afford to keep these crush secrets anymore. Gogo's eyes widened at those words. She blinked a few times and both end of hed lips curved upwards into a small smile.

"Crazy right?" He said, breaking the silence. He almost laughed at her face expression.

"Yeah, no. I mean, I like you too, actually." She cautiously find the right words. She smiled at him.

"Yeah?" Hiro knew it was a yes but he still wanted to ask her for the lack of other words to say. "Yeah." Gogo nodded while laughing.

Hiro smiled for the last time before he leaned in to kiss her. Suddenly, the volume of the noises of people talking and the music was turned down, letting the sounds of two hearts beating take place as the two drifted away into wonderland. Their own wonderland.
