"So... How'd the sleepover go?" Mel asked on Monday morning, smiling brightly.
"It went well, sort of. I guess."
With that, her smile quickly became a frown. "What happened?"
"Kenna happened." I replied, sighing.
"Bitchy Kenna? What did she do?"
"She stole Ash from me. They're going to the dance together."
"Not on my watch. Kenna can go suck a dick. Except, not Ash's dick. That's reserved for you." she winked suggestively, making me laugh. "I'll find a way to keep her away from the dance."
"Fine, just no torture or murder." I raised an eyebrow.
"Domiiiiii you're taking all the fun out of it!" I laughed again, rolling my eyes.
What in the world would this girl come up with?
I went through my classes as usual, until the end of the day finally came. Great. I was going to be alone, watching my crush dance with a girl.
The dance was definitely nice, Mel had put a lot of effort into it. Mistletoe was strung all around, Christmas lights glowed on the walls, the DJ was playing Christmas music; it looked amazing.
"Dominic!" I heard a familiar voice. Turning my head, I saw a blond boy with striking blue eyes walking towards me.
"Hey man, where's Kenna?" I asked.
"She wasn't allowed in. Something about her grades not being good enough, she had a D in one class."
I glanced at Mel, who was hurrying around and barking orders at some of the other people on other dance committee. She turned towards me and winked, making me grin.
"Huh. That must suck. Now you don't have a date." I said, acting as if I was actually bummed, even though my heart was pounding in my ears from excitement.
"Eh, not really. Now I get to spend more time with you." he smiled, making me blush slightly.
"Okay, cool. How about we go get some cookies? Mel told me she baked them herself."
"Sure." we headed over to the food table, munching on some cookies with red and white frosting.
I looked around, watching all of the couples dance to "All I want for Christmas is you." I kinda lost myself in thought, until Ash pulled me back in.
"Hey, uh, I think we're standing under a mistletoe." he said. I glanced up, and just as he had said, there it was. Mistletoe.
Mel, you sneaky bitch.
"Oh... Well... Would you care to kiss?" I asked, shifting on my feet nervously.
"Rules are rules," Ash said, smiling as he leaned in.
I Instead on my toes, wrapping my arms around his neck as he wrapped his around my waist. And it happened. Our lips touched gently, but somehow it was also forceful. And of course, I could taste the vanilla that had been ever so prevalent the last time we almost kissed.
My mind melted into utter bliss, and I lost track of time. I don't really know how long it lasted. It could have been hours, minutes, maybe even just a couple seconds.
But it didn't matter, because I was kissing the most amazing boy in the world.
