As we drove to school my dad and Link got on well, they talked all the way. We got there and Rhett was stood at the gates already with his date for the night. Link got out and walked around to my side and opened my door. I got out and my dad said he'd be back to pick us up at 9:30pm. Link then put out his arm out and we linked our arms together. We all walked towards the school, making our way to the assembly hall where the dance was taking place.

We got there and found a table to sit at, they were playing fast and energetic songs and lots of people got up to dance to them including Rhett and his date. Me and Link stayed seated and laughed at how silly Rhett looked trying to do the robot.

Link then turned to me and said "I think we should wait for a slow song, don't you?" I smiled and said "Yeah" We continued talking through all the fast songs. A slow song began to play and Rhett came over and sat down as he was out of breath.

Link stood up and held out his hand and smiled at me, I don't think he could see me blushing in the rooms dim light. I just took his hand and he walked me to the dance floor. He placed his hands on my waist and I put my hands over his shoulders round the back of his neck. We slowly began to dance and all we did was stare into each others eyes. The longer I looked into them the more I started to fall for him. He began talking "I know I haven't known you for that long but I really like you (Your Name)". This was too good to be true, did he really just say that!? I felt my face heat up as I blushed. "Ummm... I feel the same" I replied "Really?" He asked "Yeah". He began to smile and pulled me closer to him. I leaned my head on his chest, he felt so warm, I could feel his heart beating so fast. For those couple of minutes I had completely forgot we were in a room full of people. The music stopped and me and Link looked at each other and smiled.

It was time to go and my dad was already outside, we said bye to Rhett and got in the car. "How'd it go?" my dad asked "It was great sir!" answered Link. Me and Link just smiled at each other the whole way to his. I walked him to his door, we hugged and he put something in my hand. He gave me his number! I ran back to the car, and we drove home.

When we got there I ran to my room put on my PJ's and laid on my bed and held that little scrap of paper to my chest.
