Scott's Pov
10 days until prom and I still don't have a date. I've asked a couple of the girls in my class but they all turned me down, of course I'm too afraid to ask my actual crush. We have known each other for almost nine years and I still haven't confessed my feelings to him. I feel if I come out as gay I'll be disrespected and bullied. I walk into school and go up to Kirstie.
"Hey can I talk to you?" I ask her, pulling her aside so no one else hears us.
"I've known this now for about eight months but you are the first one that I'm telling and will you promise you won't make fun of me?" I ask talking in a low voice and fast.
"I promise." She says as we lock pinkies.
"I-I'm gay." She looks at me and a smile starts spreading on her face. She quickly grabs me in a hug.
"I knew it." I start to laugh a little.
"Thank you Kirst."
"Love you Scott." She says walking off.
"Love you too girl." Wow that went better then expected, I should tell Mitch next and that is when I'll ask him.
---------------next day---------------
It is about 7 am and I get a text from Mitch.
Mitch
Kirstie just told me the news and said not to say she told me. Oh well, scooter i just want you to know that I still love you and support you. I also wanted you to know that I'm gay too.
I can't help but smile I start to plan on things I'm going to do to ask Mitch to prom. I come up with 6 different ideas all different from the rest. I pick the one that is the hardest but I think he will love the most. I am going to write a song for him. I start writing lyric after lyric and before I finish the chorus my parents tell me it's time to go to school, I continue writing on the bus. Kirstie comes on from the next neighborhood and sits next to me.
"What are you doing over there?" She asks looking at my paper.
"Do not tell Mitch but I am going to ask him if he will go to prom with me and I'm writing a song to do it."
"Aww that is so sweet can I hear a little bit of it?" She asks tilting her head at me.
"Okay but be gentile I haven't gotten to the chorus yet."
"   Nobody ever love me, quite like you, and I need something there,"
"Just continue." She says playfully punching me.
"And ain't no other man is gonna take his spot
And I, I'm so happy you're mine
So I'mma love you love time
Let me love you long time
Let me love, let me love you long time. So let me love, let me love you long time. I never knew someone like you, oh no
And I never felt the way I do before, before, before. I don't wanna loose you, What if I misuse you. If you ever left. Babe I swear i would lose it, Maybe I should cool it. I know I'm acting kinda foolish
Nobody ever love me, quite like you."
She looks at me with her jaw to the floor.
"I think I will repeat that verse a couple times and I really like the chorus b-"
"If Mitch doesn't go to prom with you or even fall in love with you at that point he is an idiot." She interrupts me. I start blushing and turning my head. We come to Mitch's neighbor hood and he comes in and sits in front of us, next to this kid named Kate.
"Guys, I'm level 5 in this game I'm playing."
I look to him and give him a thumbs up.
At lunch I take Mitch into the music room and sit at the piano.
"Nobody ever loved me quiet like you..." I finish the song as I pull out a poster board that has in big letters
Will You Go To Prom With Me?
I start tearing up as he runs over to me and wraps his arms around me in a hug.
"Of course one hundred percent." He answers back.
The next day we meet up at fourth period and sit next to each other. He puts a piece of paper on my desk and I slowly unfold it.
'Can't wait for our date'
'Lol that kind of rhymes'
'You're a nerd'
I look over to him and stick me tongue out to him.
After school me and my sisters drive to a place to pick out tuxedos to wear. I grab my top three favorites and put on a fashion show for them. I finally pick a dark blue tuxedo with a white shirt to wear.
---fast forward to day of prom because I am lazy--
Two hours until it starts, I check myself in the mirror for the last time before I hear the doorbell ring and hear Mitch's voice from down stairs. I slowly walk down the steps and into the living room. I start to tear up when I see Mitch. I give him a tight hug as my parents take photos of us. We head out to a nice restaurant and eat dinner before the dance. One hour goes by quickly when you are with the love of your life.

The last song of the night comes on and of course it is a slow song. I take Mitch's hand and lead him to the soft music. He lays his head upon my shoulder as we lock our bodies together.
"I love you Scott." I look down at him and smile.
"I love you too Mitch."
I countdown the seconds as the song comes to an end.
