The moment Ian had invited me to the Halloween party, I knew I had to accept. He was my crush, and I would never turn down an opportunity to see Ian. However, I unfortunately couldn't tell him my costume. For all I knew, I could be making out with a stranger by the end of the party.
The party was loud, and the crowd was loud. I could barely make out anyone. No one could be audible unless they were screaming. The music was blaring.
"HEY!" someone screamed. I tried to muster out the voice, but I couldn't tell who it was. It was a male, but they were wearing a werewolf costume. "NICE COSTUME!" he replied, smiling. He liked my witch costume!
"THANKS!" I yelled back. "I LIKE YOURS TOO!" There was something about his voice that seemed familiar, but couldn't determine who it was.
"THANK YOU!" the guy replied. "YOU KNOW, YOU'RE KINDA CUTE!"
That surprised me. He thought I was cute? I blushed a bit, as I tipped the witch hat down to conceal my blush. "UM...UH...THANKS?" I asked, surprised.
"YOU'RE WELCOME!" he exclaimed with a smile. "WANNA HEAD OUT TO THE HALLWAY?"
I nodded, and he walked out with me. Once we were in the hallway, he leaned into my ear and said something I hadn't expected.
"I'm Ian."
I gasped. "Ian?!" I couldn't contain my surprise.
He smiled at me. "Hey. You're, uh..."
"Emily," I sighed, deciding that hiding was inefficient now. "And, I think you're cute too."
Ian took my hands, smiling at me. "So...will you be my girlfriend?" he asked me, full of hope.
"Yes," I answered without a moment's hesitation. His face lit up as we leaned in and kissed each other.
