Jonathan stood in shock, his cheeks heating up more the longer he stayed in place. He eventually got over the shock and placed his hand on his cheek, right where Sherwin had kissed him, he felt a goofy grin on his face.
He hadn't noticed that he missed the warning bell until he heard a teacher telling him to go to class.
~~~
Jonathan was sat at his desk in his bedroom, his books sprawled out across the table, not his homework, no, his diaries, yep, multiple. One for his family life that he gives to his guidance counsellor, everyone in the school had to have a diary about their family, another for boring secrets that his parents and siblings read, thinking he doesn't know, and the third one for his crush on Sherwin, all the cute things he says and does during school, Jonathan jots down as soon as he hears about it, he kept that one in his backpack at all costs, he couldn't risk his parents finding it and figuring out he's gay through a book they didn't know he had.
Jonathan was tapping his pencil against the table leg until he heard the doorbell. He expected that it was his sisters, Jolene, friend.
"Oh right," He thought, pushing his chair out from under his desk. "I'm home alone."
Jonathan shuffled towards his bedroom door and opened it, cringing at the creaking noise it made as he did so, he hated hearing creaks. He walked down the hallway towards the stairs and jogged down them, turning 'round the corner and to the front door. He grabbed the keys off the shelf and twisted them in the lock before jiggling with the door handle and opening the door slightly.
"Oh," He muttered, opening the door wider. "Hey Belle."
"Hey, John," She responded. "Ready to go suit shopping?" She asked.
"Yeah, let me get changed first." Belle looked at his outfit and chuckled.
"Duckie pyjamas?"
"So, I'm a teenager, I can wear what I want." He huffed.
"Alright, go get changed." She let out a final laugh and wiped fake tears in the corner of her eyes.
Johnathan rolled his eyes and told Belle to come in before running up the stairs and fixing up the mess on his desk and getting changed.

"What about this one?" Belle opened the dressing room curtain, revealing herself to be dressed in a dark grey suit jacket, a white button up shirt, some black pants and a light purple tie.
"Definitely." He said, putting his fingers together to make an okay sign.
"I don't know," She muttered, turning back to the mirror. "Would she like it?"
"Belle," Johnathan sighed. Said girl turned to face him. "Alexandra loves anything as long as you're the one wearing it. You could show up to that dance in skates, rainbow jeans, a puke green hoodie, an orange tie and bed head and she'd cry for joy."
Belle smiled and decided on buying the suit she was wearing.
"Why are we even hear, it's not like it's prom." Jonathan groaned.
"Dances are still important," She said. "Besides, you wouldn't want Sherwin to think you don't care, would you?"
"Don't you dare bring that freckled cutie into this."
"Oooo, sorry." Belle teased.

Jonathan and Belle arrived at the dance together, both their dates arrived together since they were siblings.
