chorus

The teacher put his hands down and smiled at the whole choir. He walked to the far left side of the stage, bowing, signaling for the others to take a bow. Smiles were plastered on their faces, and tears formed in some of the upper classmate's eyes. This would be their last time performing as junior-high students.

Thunderous applause roared throughout the whole auditorium, parents yelling names, whistling, clapping till their hands were stinging.

All of the kids filed off of the stage one by one, high-fiving the student teacher behind the curtains. They walked back to the choir room, yelling and crying of happiness. Girls squealed and hugged everyone in sight, while the small amount of boys awkwardly stood in different places. Frank went over and hugged his best friend, Jamia Nestor.

Earlier...

His mom pulled up to the high school doors, dropping him off. Jamia ran over to him and screamed, hugging him.

"Oh my god, Frank! You look so amazing!"

Frank laughed and hugged her back, saying,

"You too! I'm sure you'll get Ashley soon!"

"A girl can wish- god, she's so pretty! And she's probably going to look so hot tonight!"

Jamia pulled up her strapless black dress nervously, her eyes darting around for Ashley.

"Oh, here she comes! Remember our deal!!"



Present...

Frank hugged Jamia again- even tighter, tears in his eyes.

"This is our last performance in the junior-high choir!"

Jamia sniffled, saying, "I know! now, I went up to Ash earlier, so you need to go to Gerard. A deal is a deal... And perfect timing, here he comes!"

She unlatched herself from Frank and smiled. She walked away to a group of girls, leaving Gerard and Frank alone.

"Hey... Can we go in the hall?" Gerard asked.

Frank replied, "Sure!", slightly confused on why Gerard wanted to go in the hall.

They walked out together, standing near the vending machine. Gerard looked into his eyes and started,

"When we first started chorus and I heard you sing, that's when I knew I liked you. For three years i've been holding in these feelings. I really like you Fra-"

Frank pressed his lips to Gerard's. He kissed back, smiling a bit. Eventually, they pulled away. Both boys were bright red and happy.
