Across The Hall

Rain

Prom Night. The night we've all been waiting for since we were 6 years old. The night when virgins become sluts, the night when dressing up ridiculous was alright. And I was going alone. Stag. No one to slow dance with No one to laugh at when they can't dance....

As I watched Kadence curl her hair perfectly and a side messy for Lucii. They where both so beautiful both so happy. I was jealous.

Matt was here for Kadence which made me think more and more about Taylor.

Picture taking against the door in front of our house was as awkward as possible. It was Kadence, Matt, Braden, Lucii.. Then me.. Alone.

"My schedule still is open to take you." My dad whispered into my ear after all the pictures. I smiled an awkward smile letting him know that it was okay.

The limo was pretty amazing it had lights everywhere flashing.. pretty chill. The ride was pretty quiet.. Actually it was really loud just my world seemed to be quiet.

As I walk into the gym there were kids laughing and dancing is was like a dreamy dream the lights were definitley something I'll remember. The kids were as if i had never met any of them. They were happy not like normal high school kids. And at kids at my high school never really seem to be... Happy. Could be a little tipsy...

"I'm going to go get a drink." I yelled to Kadence She nodded and went back to grinding on Matt.

I took the first sip and there's definately alcohol in it. Never thought my first drink of alcohol would be at a high school dance.

"Delilah! Hey! I thought you weren't coming tonight?" Braxton.. I wasn't surprised..

"I guess plans change because here I am." I held my drink in one hand and lifted my other one to show I was there.. I looked stupid..

"Wanna dance?" He said right as the prettiest girl in the school Ashley Moore walked up grabbing his shoulder.

"You look busy.." I smirk at him.

"Umm okay save me one would you?"

"Sure."

I walked over to the other stag people.. The loners and the most awkward people ever.. They seemed nice.. But I didn't really wanna talk to them. Naww.

I got up and walked out of the gym walking down the long hallway full of blue lockers towards the front doors.

" Delilah what about a dance!?"

"I haven't forgotten Braxton.. I'll be back when you're done with Ashley." He didn't respond but I didn't want him to because I was pretty much all the way out the doors.

It was raining and living in Chicago it never seems to rain.

I was in love with it.

"Hey." It was Cameron and for some reason I was so happy to see him.

"What are you doing here?" I walked out to meet him in the freezing rain. He was holding a sign that said 'Hope it would be alright if I took you to prom?' And a beautiful bouquet of flowers in his other hand. Which he handed to me.

"I want to take you to prom."

"It's a little late don't you think." I said pointing to the sign.

"We are in the freezing rain and you are worrying about the sign." Before I could get another word in he smashed his wet lips into mine. Not going to lie I miss kissing him.. I missed feeling lips on mine. The rain became to come down harder. Which made it more romantic!

"Should we go inside?"

"No.. No. They will be all over you, because you know.. Cameron Dallas." I wrapped my arms around his neck. We kissed again slowly and soft.

"Lets not think about Taylor just for one night." He whispered hovering over my lips.

"Taylor isn't on my mind anymore." I'm pretty sure he had no idea what I meant by that.. But I wasn't worried.

"Where do you wanna go?" I could see the goose bumps running down his neck.

"Somewhere? Warm." I said as he clung to my side. And he rapped his jacket around my bare shoulders.

"Somewhere warm huh?" We started walking. As the rain drops made him look so much hotter then I realized.. Oh god.

"Why do you keep looking at me?" I asked feeling my face to make sure nothing was on it.

"You're beautiful.. You know that." He said my face must have looked like hell because I could feel myself blushing.

"Your a cute one." I said running a head to his car.
