I entered the giant hotel, which our prom would be help in and gasped. It was decorated with flowers, plants, cards and other stuff. "Cool, right?" Someone said from behind me. I looked back and smirked. "Espanto." I said.

"Garcia." He laughed.

"Where's...Melody?"

"I was just about to ask about Jason."

"He's looking around."

"She's in the bathroom putting on more make up."

I laughed. "So, you look spiffy."

He laughed. "Of course! You don't look too bad yourself."

"Thanks I guess." I half smiled.

He grinned, but it suddenly vanquished when Jason came. "Hey Darren!" Jason says.

"Hey." He replies.

"Um, so Kylie, I want to show you something. It's awesome." Jason said.

"Okay." I smile. I look back at Darren. "Hey. Lets talk later, okay?"

"Yeah." He murmurs.

I walked with Jason to a ballroom. I turned back to Darren, and he just turned away.

>>>

"Okay, every time I say "SnowFlake", you must change partners and get a new partner. Sir John will start off and will pick a girl to dance with, and Ma'am Judy will choose a boy to dance with. Start!" The announcer says.

Sir John looks around the room, and lays his eyes on me. I get nervous and he grabs my hand and dances with me. Right now, the song is Don't Stop.

"SnowFlake!"

I look around for Jason, who I should probably ask first because he's my partner, and I find him and grab his hand. "Sorry, I suck at dancing!" I say.

"That's okay, me too." He chuckles.

"SnowFlake!"

I look around, and in search for Darren, but instead, I only find Luke, so I grab his hand. "Who picked you?" I asked. "Ma'am Judy." He says. "Oh, Sir John chose me. "

"SnowFlake!"

I looked around, in search of someone I know, but instead, someone grabs my hand. "Hey." A guy says. "Oh, hello!" I say cheerfully. This guy is CJ. He's not a dork, and not popular. He's a normie.

"SnowFlake!"

The song changes this time, and it's Thinking Out Loud. I looked around for anyone, maybe Darren, and decide to grab Jacks hand. "Hey." I say. "Hello. I was nervous that someone wasn't gonna choose me." He chuckles. "Please, your the MOST popular guy in school. I'm sure a lot of girls will come after you." "Thanks." He laughs.

"5Th Last SnowFlake!"

I looked around and grabbed a random persons hand. I didn't know the guy but I learned that his name was Jake and he liked basketball.

"4th Last SnowFlake!"

The song changed to Rejects by 5SOS. Someone grabbed my hand and I noticed it was Jason. "Hey, no repeating!" I laughed. "Shhhh!" He said, laughing. We danced crazily.

"3rd Last SnowFlake!"

Someone grabbed my arm again and it was Peter. He was a Reject like me. "Sup?" I said. "Nothing much." He laughs. "I like your name." "Of course you do, it's Peter Pans/Spider-Man's name!" He joked.

"For the second and the last SnowFlakes, we will combine them together! Ten minutes of dancing with your special someone. So hurry, go grab your crush and dance with them or even dance with a random person! Don't sit there!"

I laughed. The next song was one that was..familiar. Falling For You! The one by Teen Beach Movie! I love that movie.

I slipped on my slippery shoes, and fell into someone. "Darren?" "Yah. Wanna dance?" "Sure." After that song, they played (I Can't Forget About You by R5! Woah, someone's obsessed with Ross Lynch. Sheesh! Darren and I danced like idiots, and laughed a lot. The next song played. It was Classic by MKTO. I love that song.

"I love this song sooooooooo much!" I squealed.

"'Me too!" He smiled.

The last song is...All The Stars by Ed Sheeran! I love Ed Sheeran soooo much! "Ahhhh! Ed!" I squealed.

He smiled. I felt butterflies in my stomach whenever I caught him staring at me. "Maybe Okay can be our always?" He stared.

"You...you like TFIOS?!"

"Do you think I'm a geek now?"

"No, that makes me like you even more! Oh and, okay." I smiled.

He smiled back and the butterflies fluttered again. I couldn't stop looking at him. When he caught me staring, I would poke his dimple. When the song ended, I moved closer to him, just to kiss him on the cheek, but he moved his head and our lips accidentally met.

I quickly jerked away and blushed. Embarrasing much? I saw Melody in the background, muttering something. I looked over at Darren, and he was speachless.

"Um....uh...." He said.

"I...gotta go now...then?"

"Okay..then I'll go with you."

~~~~~~~~

Darren and I sat at my house, eating chips and drinking C2.

"That....was really embarrasing!" I blurted out.

"Yeah...now everyones gonna think that we're dating or something..."

"I only meant to kiss you on the cheek, you know, in a friendly way."

I didnt really mean the "friendly way" part.

"Yeah."
