Warning: this chapter has some mature adult language.
I sit on the steps waiting for Crystal, I know I must look stupid and I try to make it looks as if I am waiting for my friends, but no I am waiting for her. The girl I was too afraid to actually ask, Crystal. I don't know what's got me so attracted to her, she has that shy smile and whenever she blushes or can't look me in the eye. It drives me mad, I swear.
When she finally arrives my breath gets caught in my throat but I try to pretend like I didn't see her yet and stand up immediately to make it look like I just got there. She makes it up the front steps and I try to act casual. "Hey Crystal" I say trying not to look at her beautiful dress, She looks so pretty.
"Hey," She says back looking nervous "Ahhh I'm scared to walk in alone" She tells me looking in the dance room and back at me.
This is the perfect chance. "I'll walk in with you" I try to keep my voice as steady as possible, but I think she can tell I am hella nervous.
"Oh uh sure, thanks" She says blushing.

It's been over an hour and I still haven't gotten the chance to dance with her. Some girls are giving me those longing stares of course, but I can't stop looking back at Crystal. I even danced with Talia, well because she basically forced me but It's not her.
I gave up.
She wouldn't want to dance with me, not the egotistical jerk I am. Selfish idi-
"Um, Michael can i say something" Delila tells me next to her friend Christina.
"U-"
" Just dance with Crystal for fucks sake, I see those looks both yall are giving" Delila yells as Christina wiggles her eyebrows. I move away from my friends and look down.
"I- I don't know" I say looking at the floor sounding like a pussy.
"Michael just do it, do it for her you know you want to." Christina adds as I stare back at Crystal who is talking to Christina sister. "I- I...fine" I sigh knowing I might die from anxiety. As I walk up to her she keeps on looking back and not at me. She, Just dance with Crystal for fucks sake Delilas voice rings in my head. "Crystal d-do you want to dance" I stuttered like a little bitch. She doesn't say anything she just is staring, why isn't she saying anything. I grab her hand so I won't go through rejection from someone like her. A slow song played but I wasn't even thinking. All I saw was that smile, that small shy smile of hers. I couldn't help but give her one back.
The moment was like slow motion yet it ended so fast. It was a moment that made me fall hard. Yet, there was other problems, much more problems...

When I got home I couldn't stop smiling back at the moment. I actually danced with Crystal. Damn I must be lucky.
My phone gives me a notification from SnapChat. I rush to see if its Crystal. Oh. Its Molly...My ex-girlfriend.
Molly(insert random emoji): Can we talk
Molly is typing...
Michael(insert random emoji): um...sure
Molly: Michael, when I saw you dancing with Crystal it broke me. You looked so lost in her and it made me realise how much I missed that. How much I miss you. I miss our laughs and our talks. I miss you. Please Michael do you think maybe we can talk tomorrow.
Read 10:25
Michael: of course
Molly and I dated for almost a year, and I was like her love sick puppy while she was my owner. She wants me back. I somehow feel happy, but something in me goes back to Crystal. I don't want to just play her. That dance it was something, and I can't stop thinking of her or it.
Michael: Thank you for this dance I had fun ♥️
Crystal: me too♥️
