NEW BEGINNINGS

PROM (Girl's POV)

I'm not a popular girl. So, when the most popular guy of school asked me out for prom, I was really confused. He did it in such a convincing way, I couldn't say no. I never expected anything like that. So, two weeks before prom, during lunch, he sung out a song to me in front of everyone and gave me a bunch of red roses and asked me if I'd be his date for prom and I said yes. It's not like my crush would ever ask me out so I just went for the next best person.I wore a black dress to prom and he wore blue. The theme of prom was masquerades. I was wearing a black lace mask. It made my eyes look bigger and brighter. He wore a black mask too. I smiled when I recognised him and he smirked at me. I frowned as I walked towards him. He held me by my waist and introduced me to all his friends. Everyone just faked smiles or smirked at me. I felt out of place. Anyhow, I tried to stay happy. He said he wanted to dance and pulled me along with him to the dance floor. He didn't know that I didn't know how to dance. He kept his hand on my waist and I kept mine on his shoulder, trying not to get nervous. As we slowly danced, he whispered into my ear - "all this was just a dare. What did you think ? I would take a girl like you to prom? And now I'll complete my dare." I was trying to register what he had told me but even before I do something, he swiftly made me rotate and I couldn't balance myself. I was so shocked. I knew I was going to fall. I shut my eyes close as a reflex. I felt two arms wrap around me, pulling me up. There he was, my crush, the bad boy of the school. The one that didn't care what others thought of him. Maybe this caught my attention. His personality. He was frowning while he looked at me. His jade green eyes held rage. His grip tightened as he pulled me to my feet and whispered - "Just move with me, let's show them who they messed up with". I nodded as I felt slightly lightheaded. He whispered in my ear asking me to wrap my arms around his neck and I did as he commanded. He then told me what to do. We danced along. I looked directly in his eyes and he, in mine. When the song was about to end, I turned my head to look at the group standing at the counter. They all had their eyes on us and looked pretty disappointed. Then I felt him pulling me closer to him. He whispered in my ear, "I should've told you this long ago, I like you so much and I felt like a fool to let you go with him. I've liked you for so long, but never told you." With that, he kissed me and everything froze. I couldn't feel anything around me. I couldn't hear the music or the chattering of people around us, anymore. I closed my eyes and realised what was actually happening. My crush told me that he likes me and everything was falling in place.
