I just finished applying the last of my make up. I grabbed my purse and took one last look in the mirror before rushing out to meet my date, Niall.
Tonight was my dream night. I'd been planning for prom since I was ten. The best part was that I was going with the most perfect guy in the entire world.
Niall and I hadn't been dating for too long but straight away, I knew he was different. he always tried to please me in ways that I didn't deserve. I was endlessly showered in his affirmations and adoration towards me.
I forced myself not to run a hand through my perfectly curled hair, it was a habit that I was dying to brake if only for tonight.
Niall smiled when he saw me, making me feel like some sort of celebrity strutting down the red carpet. He'd always had that affect on me.
"You look beautiful," he gasped the cliché line.
"Thanks," I blushed.
"Are you ready?" he asked.
"I've been ready for years," I said looping my arm with his before my parents snapped a few quick pictures.
Niall and I were soon off. Even being fashionably late had it's limits.
When we got to the school, we were greeted by blaring music and flashing lights.
The student councilman at the front door checked our tickets before we could enter.
I looked around the decorated gym, it was beautiful. I couldn't believe that this was the place where I'd been tortured to participate in school activities for the past four years.
This was it. This was what I'd been waiting for. Tonight would be perfect.
"Are you nervous?" Niall asked taking my hand.
"Not at all," I said confidently.
"Well then, may I have this dance?" Niall ask with the cutest smile.
"Yes, yes you may."
Just as Niall and I stepped onto the dance floor, a slow song started playing.
I wrapped my arms around Niall's neck and he placed his hands on my hips.
I rested my head on his shoulder and I could hear his heartbeat.
"I love you," he said.
"I love you too," I smiled.

"Alright everyone, It's time to announce the winners for prom king and queen," said the school president, Holly Lester.
The whole crowed hushed and gathered around the stage.
"Would our candidates please step onto the stage?" she said.
With a huge smile, I hurriedly ran onto the stage making sure not to trip over my floor-length dress. Niall went the opposite way to his side. I had been hoping that I would be prom queen but there was no doubt that Niall was the king.
He was absolutely perfect and everyone loved him. I would be surprised if there was one person in the room who didn't vote for him.
"I'll start off by announcing our king." Holly unfolded the paper in her hand and read the winner aloud. "Your prom king is," she paused for dramatic effect, "Niall Horan!"
Everyone clapped for Niall and the other two guys made their way off the stage.
"Now for your queen." The sound of paper crumpling could be hear as I crossed my fingers.
"Please be me, please be me," I whispered.
"Kelly Parker!"
I let out a small squeal as a tiara was placed on my head. Niall took my hand and lead my down to the dance floor where everyone formed a circle around us.
We swayed in the spotlight and everyone watched but I hardly noticed them. In the moment it was just Niall and I.
Niall looked down at me and suddenly, I felt his lips on mine. the crowd that was sprawled out around is bursted into a series of "Aww's" and "How cute"
This was my dream night and it couldn't have been more perfect.
{Sorry this was terrible but I've been to like 1 dance my whole life and I have nothing good to say about it. Also sorry I took so long. Hope you like it! xx}
