CHAPTER 37

***Third person POV***

Marcel, Kristen, Allie, and Niall all walk into the dance. The people inside all look at them. Everyone notices Niall and his old friends walk up to him and high five him. Knowing that he has never come to a dance, people look at Kristen and the new student she is hanging with. People are confused on why she's here with him and not Marcel.

Kristen takes her cutie out onto the floor and they dance, it was the best song ever for them. It was their first time going to a dance and to make it better it was with someone they loved. A lot. A few songs went by and they decided they needed a break. Marcel being the sweet and charming man he is he got Kristen and himself a drink. When he started walking back to the table there was a bunch of people talking to Kristen. He was happy that it wasn't just Allie with her but, a whole bunch of girls. They were talking to her normally, no one fussing at her. She was actually making friends that treated her right. She was actually starting school correctly. 

Once Marcel got back to table all the girls were chatting, Niall was sitting down next to Allie and they were holding hands. Niall smiled at him as he sat next to Kristen.

"Kristen who is this exactly? I thought you were dating that Marcel kid." A bunch of girls were asking or similar questions to this. Kristen, Marcel, Allie, and Niall started to laugh, no one else really understood what was happening. 

Kristen pulled some glasses out of her clutch purse. She puts them on Marcel and push his hair back to how it would normally look to the student body. People were dumbfounded, no one thought that this man could possibly be the Marcel they knew.

People were gushing over him calling him all sort of cute names from cuie to Mr. Hot Pants. Marcel didn't pay much attention to them though because all of them, and he means all of them never cared about him before, until he showed up looking different.

Marcel started to walk out onto the dance floor when someone else entered. He was looking clean and sharp, completely different from his usual self. John started walking but momentarily stopped. He turned and latched hands with someone, he walked hand in hand with his date. People knew him around school, the only thing was, no one knew that John and Ross were gay. Everyone thought they were straight. They always heard of them messing with some chick. No one questioned it though, everyone was finding out surprises left and right. 

John walks up to Marcel and Niall. "Hey guys, no one really seems surprised. Did you tell everyone already Marcel?" Marcel simply just nodded, everyone was dancing again.

People didn't really care about any-ones sexuality, they excepted everyone that came to the school. There was multiply openly gay people at there school. John just thought differently, people knew him as the football player that was suppose to be interested in chicks, not guys.

He knew that he wasn't the best out there, a lot of people knew that. Louis Tomlinson. He was the best. No one really competed with him when it came to football.

"It's nice to see you Kristen, and Marcel, you have changed. It's not a bad change though." Louis came up and started to talk to Marcel. No Louis didn't beat Marcel up, no he didn't try to stop it, and no he doesn't have a thing for Kristen. It was Marcel's first time coming to a event for the school and Louis, well he was on the student council and he wanted the people that were going for the first time to feel welcomed. 

"Thanks Louis. It's good to actually come to something school related and not just it's classes." Marcel joked and everyone that was around him started laughing. Marcel actually for once felt welcomed. He was happy that people actually started to acknowledge him, he just hates that he has changed from how he normally dresses for him to get acknowledged though. But the thing that he actually really likes his that he is here with his girlfriend.

As long as his girlfriend his here and is happy, he is happy too. No one and he means no one can change his mood. Kristen takes his hand to go back and dance and he doesn't fight with her to do it. They walk back out and so does Niall and Allie, John and Ross, and Louis and Hannah. He looks around the room and see's how everyone around him is happy.

"Hello everyone. It's your student council president Lily. As usual we are going to be telling you the king and queen of our dance as always. Many of you voted and many of you didn't but, that's fine because we always have a gorgeous queen, and a handsome king. Oh and on the topic of looks, you all are looking extravagant. Now for the time that everyone has been waiting for..." Dillian her boyfriend comes up and hands her the an envelope. "Our king for the winter dance is...John Finnley. John will you please come up?"

John turns to Ross and kisses his cheek real quickly before joining Dillian and Lily on stage. Dillian sticks the crown on John's head and they do a manly hug, Dillian being on the football team and all. Dillian than hands Lily the next envelope. "And our queen is...Allie Greene. Allie will you please come up to the stage?" Allie looks at Niall in horror, he simply nods at her and kisses her cheek. He gives her a slight push and she walks the rest of the way up. 

Once at the stage Dillian puts the crown on her as well and gives her a little hug. "I announce to you this years king and queen." Allie looks at Lily and waves at her slightly. Lily walks over to Allie and Allie starts to whisper something into Lily's ear. She simply just nods and hands over the mic to Allie.

"I'm not sure how I was chosen Queen. I will say this though. If you did vote for me thank you. I like being the queen and all, but I want you guys to notice someone else here at this school. Most of you might know her because of events that happened with her, but I know her because she was one of the only people that actually understood me. When she got here, she didn't exactly have the best welcoming party that most people get when they first come her. But she did meet someone and I'm happy for them both. I want to announce to you your real Winter Dance queen, Kristen Calim." Allie tells the audience and a spotlight lands on Kristen.

Kristen has tears in her eyes as she walks up to the stage. She looks at Allie, and she hugs her with all her might. She was never really a person for dances or being the queen. But this time, she is grateful for it this time. To have someone that wants her to be queen instead of themselve. Kristen looks out to everyone and they start to clap for her. She never really thought of herself as a queen, but this time. This one time in her life for a really long time is she glad to be a queen again, even if it's for a little while.

John walks over to Kristen and pats her back. He smiles and then walks over to the mic. "I have been a bully at this school since freshman year. I understand that there are teachers out here and listening to me. Just let me talk to for a minute. I have bullied only one kid though. His name is Marcel, he never really did anything to me. I don't really have a reason why I bullied him. I called him names, I called him gay and stupid and a bunch of other mean words. I didn't and don't have a reason for saying all of those mean things to him. I called him gay hoping that maybe if I said it enough he would change, I was hoping that maybe I could change him if he wasn't already gay. I'm sorry Marcel, I'm sorry for hurting you all those times. The truth is I hurt him because I liked him. I never actually liked girls. I was lying. Ross, you are my love, and I'm glad that I actually got to be with you. So I don't deserve to be you're king guys if my king isn't up here to be my king. So Marcel, come up here and be the king for your queen." John tells the crowd of people and everyone starts clapping again. No one is judging everyone is just happy that Marcel and Kristen are here and everything is going to be okay with them.

Because everyone deserves to be special, and tonight everyone is happy that they are the true ones to be special on a special night like tonight.
