Cherry's POV
Shawn had been feeling down lately and wouldn't tell me why. "Shawn, wanna come over?" I asked, hopefully. He's been turning me down a lot lately. "Sure, why not." He shrugged. "Me and Cory can play some one on one." He kept walking beside me. "Uh, not what I invited you over for." I laughed sarcastically. "I know I'm just playing." He said. I rolled my eyes and we walked to Turners class. We sat by each other and scoot or desks closer together like we did everyday. He wasn't really talking to me, but he kept leaning closer and closer. I raised an eyebrow at this, but decided to ignore it til we got to my house.

Shawn's POV
So, senior prom is coming up. I want to ask Cherry, and I dunno how. So I've been kind of distant, not on purpose, but just because I've been thinking about how to do this. Lately she's been inviting me to do a bunch of stuff, but I had to keep turning her down cause I've been meeting with Topanga on how to ask her. I accepted an invite to her house after school. We were on our way there and holding hands. A little kids hopscotch thing caught Cherry's eye and she went over to it. She grabbed a rock and tossed it, then hopped. I stood there, laughing at the childishness of my girlfriend. "What?" She smiled at me. The golden rays of the sun reflected off her caramel skin. "You're really pretty." I said. She started blushing. I walked over to her and pecked her lips. "and childish too." We laughed.

Cherry's POV
Once we got to my house we immediately ran upstairs. I threw my backpack somewhere in my room and flopped on my bed. Shawn came over and laid down on me. He laid his head on my chest and wrapped his arms around my waist. I played with his hair and we just lay there in the comfortable silence. I actually almost dozed off when Topanga came running in. Since I was almost asleep, my senses heightened. When my door swung open, I jumped up in a fighting stance. "Oh, Topanga. What's up?" I asked letting down my fists. "Sorry, I was just really excited. Cory asked me to senior prom just now! With balloons and a sign, and my favorite flowers and my favorite candy!" She exclaimed. I felt a twinge of jealousy, since Shawn hadn't asked me yet. I shook it off, "Aww, adorable! Prom king and queen are in the house!!!!" I squealed and we hugged. "Okay, you guys looked like you were about to sleep, let me let you get back to that." She said and walked out the door, still squealing.

Shawn's POV
Cherry sighed. She crawled back into her bed, and tried to get into the position we were in before. I shook my head. "No, your turn to hold me." I said with a kind of babyish voice and she giggled. She lay her head on my chest and had her arms around my torso. I kissed head and played with her hair. We eventually dozed off and it was the most peaceful sleep I think I've had all week. Damn, senior prom week was stressful.
