jack huffs frustratingly as he glares at the dress tie in the reflection of the mirror. he was getting ready for his eighth grade school dance and is having complications with his tie. he calls his dad in to help him and he ties his tie.
his dad goes on and on about how 'girls like confident guys' and jack just nodded along, pretending he was listening. jack didn't have a date to the dance so he didn't really care. he also didn't have enough courage to ask someone to go with him and never really took a fancy towards girls. it took his parents a bit of convincing to make jack go to the dance since he wasn't too fond of the idea since he sees himself as a 'bad dancer'.
~~~
the car parked in the school parking lot and jack hopped out and rubbed his clammy hands together. he was nervous to say the least but he had no idea why. he said goodbye to his parents and rolled his eyes at his dad as he yelled out "go get 'em sport!"
he walked into the darkly lit gymnasium that was full of young teens dancing, disco lights, balloons littered around the floor and streamers hung from the ceiling. a song was being boomed through the speakers, hoping to see someone he knew. in no time, he spotted a mop if blond hair that he recognised. he squeezed through the people dancing and laughing before tapping the boy on the shoulder.
"hey jack!" corbyn exclaimed over the music as he turned to face him. "you look great, i'm glad you decided to come." corbyn stated and punching his shoulder lightly. jack smiled at his friend before corbyns date, christina, grabbed corbyn by the hand and took him to dance with her. jack sighed and stood there awkwardly before grabbing himself some non alcoholic punch. he took a sip of the tropical drink and he shuffled his sad feet over to the bleachers. he sat down and took another sip of his drink, overlooking the dancing crowd sadly.
after a few songs, jack had finished his punch and was staring at his shoes as he sat on his hands. his peripheral vision caught a glimpse of someone climbing over the bleachers toward him. he looked up and saw a boy stepping up onto the seat and smiling sweetly at him.
"hey, are you alright." the boy asks. jack just keeps his head down and fidgets with the end of his tie, mumbling his response.
"yeah, i'm ok." jack says nervously. as jack looks at his tie like it's the most interesting thing in the world, the boy sat next to him. jack looks at his bouncing thigh, not wanting to look at his face.
"you look lonely over here so i'm gonna join you." the boy says leaning back on his arms that rest behind him. jack blushes an smiles a little.
"you don't have to sit here with me if you don't want to." he says. nervously looking up at the boy. jack thought he looked very nice. he liked his tie, it was rainbow. the boy glanced over at him and quickly took in all his cute features.
"nah i wanna sit here." the boy said sending him a sweet smile. jack blushed and smiled at him at the kind gesture. jack looked down at his shoes as they tapped together nervously, the butterflies in his stomach erupting and tempting to fly out of him.
"you're cute." the boy says, hugging his knees into his chest. jack let a cheeky grin make shape on his lips, bringing his palms to his crimson cheeks. the boy giggles at his reaction and stares at the crowd on the dance floor.
"d-did you bring a date with you?" jack asks anxiously, playing with his tie again.
"nah i didn't. and i'm kinda glad i didn't." he says, elbowing jacks side lightly. jack chuckles slightly.
"honestly, same." he says to himself. hoping that he wouldn't hear it over the music. but he did, smirking.
"what's your name?" jack asks, looking at him, completely forgetting about asking it in the first place.
"oh i'm jonah, you?" he smiles sweetly.
"i'm jack." he says, turning toward him more slightly. jonah nods and turns and faces infront of him again. the song playing ends and another slow one begins. the dj speaks into the microphone for everyone to grab their partners and head to the dance floor. jack sighs and looks at his shoes again. jonah looks at the floor and then at jack, standing. he stands infront of him before sticking out a hand. jack raises his head to see jonahs outstretched, welcoming hand. jack laughs at himself.
"oh no i don't dance." jack says, looking at his shoes again. jonah grabs his hand that was rested on his thigh and pulls jack up from his seat.
"you can stand on my feet, come on." jonah says before pulling him down the stand. he turns around and faces jack once he has reached the middle of the dance floor.
the music begins and jonah bows dramatically infront of him and jack laughs at him. jonah walks closer to him and wraps his arms gently around his waist. jack blushes as he looks down to step onto jonahs feet. jonah uses a hand to lift jacks arms to around his shoulders, keeping jack held close to him. his secure arms hold jack close to him as he steps from side to side.
"sorry if i'm heavy." jack apologies, one of his hands going to jonahs chest.
"not at all, beautiful." jonah smiles down at him. jack blushes and smiles at the pet name, liking it a lot. jack glances around at the crowd, a few heads looking in their direction. jonah uses a hand on jacks chin and makes him face him.
"don't worry about them, just look at me. no one else." jonah says, staring deep into jacks eyes. jack nods slightly and his eyes travel down to his lips, wondering what it would be like to kiss them.
"plus, they are probably all jealous i get to dance with a gorgeous boy like you." jonah smirks. jack rolls his eyes at him and hits his chest lightly. jonahs teeth shine from behind his lips, making jack blush and look down at jonahs tie.
"i like your tie, jonah." jack states as he lets it slide in his hand.
"thank you. i tied it myself." he says proudly. jack giggles at him and wraps his arm back around jonahs shoulders, gazing into his gorgeous eyes. jonah suddenly leans down and places a short, sweet peck on jacks flushed cheek. jack was taken by surprise at the gesture and looks at jonah with wide eyes, jonah chewing on his cheek nervously for jacks reaction. jack leans up and pecks him shortly on his lips, leaving a tingly feeling on his lips, tasting of jacks strawberry chapstick.
jonah looks at jack with the same wide eyes and jack giggles at himself, covering his smile with his fingers. jonah smiles at the boy.
"your so cheeky." jonah says, tightening his grip on his waist. jack looks at jonah and pulls him into a soft hug, swaying them to the music. jonah sighs, hugging the boy nicely.
"maybe i could dance with you all the time." jonah smirks, placing a kiss to jacks neck lightly, it smelling of his chilling cologne.
"are you asking me to be your boyfriend?" jack pulls back from the hug, their faces being closer than before. jonah shrugs.
"only if you say yes." jonah sends him a cheesy grin. jacks blood rushes to the tips of his ears before nodding with a smile and pulling him back in for a soft, calming hug.
