It's Complicated

Really?!

Abby asked me to go to the dance. Of course, I wasn't asked, but I hope to sneak in a dance with Josh. I put on a pretty red silk dress and put on some black heals. I put my hair up in a braided bun, put on a bit of makeup, and hop in the car with my dad. He drives me all the way to the school. I see a tall figure approach me. I realize it's him and get butterfly's as he reaches out his hand to help me out. I take it and he helps me out of the car.

We walk into the school, arms linked and the lights are blazing. He says I like beautiful and he wanted to ask me, but never got the guts to. The music starts to play and we start to awkwardly dance to the song Friends. I couldn't think of a more perfect moment. A slow song comes on and Josh looks at me with his puppy dog eyes. He reaches his hand out once again. We sway as I have my hands on his shoulders with his on my waist. I lay my head on his shoulder and I just drift away. When the slow dance is over, I pull away and I look down at my shoes with my face tomato red. He looks at me and says,

"That was my first slow dance.."

"Ha, mine too" my face gets more red.

He starts to lean closer and I close my eyes. Soon I'm sharing my first kiss with Josh. I never thought that would happen in a million years! We pull away and he's beaming. I grin and I give him a huge hug. He offers me a drive to Cold-stone to get some ice-cream. He takes my hand and we walk to his car together. He opens the car door and helps me in. We sit in the car in silence all the way there, but when we get to Cold-stone we start chatting away. I look at my phone and see my dad has texted me to see how it was going. I texted him back and say it was good and I went to get ice cream with Josh.

"I couldn't imagine a better first kiss." He says to me.

"I couldn't either." My face turns red again and I look into his eyes.

He opens the door for me and we go inside. I get the one with the most chocolate you could imagine! He gets cookie dough and pays for both of our orders. We sit down and talk for what seems like hours. When we finish he offers to take me home.

"Would that be ok with your dad?" He says hopefully.

"He didn't want to pick me up anyways." I say laughing.

"Well let's get going then! I don't want you to get home too late."

He helps me into his car once again and we hold hands on the way to my house. We talk about the dance, Josh's previous girlfriends, and favorite foods. When we found into my driveway I am finally faced with reality. He gets out and walks me to my front door and slips me a piece of paper. He kisses me one last time and gets back into his car. I get into my house and open the piece of paper revealing his phone number with hearts all around it. I slide down on the door and smile uncontrollably before I finally get up and walk to my room to change, and finally go to bed. I close my eyes, and dream of what the world has for me a Josh tomorrow.
