*The Food Court* Jane's POV:

It was Saturday and Roxy and I had just finished our project (I just finished our project) and we decided to celebrate by going to the mall with Jake and Dirk. We had stopped by a few shops and had ended up at the food court.

"Hey, looks like there aren't that many people. Splendid!" Jake pat Dirk and I on the back as we entered the salty and sweet smelling corner.

"Lez go, Janey!" Roxy grabbed my arm and dragged me in some direction to obtain food. We all met back up at a table to the side. I had gotten a delicious looking piece of chocolate cake, Roxy had a hotdog to go along with her not so well camouflaged can of beer, Jake had a cinnamon roll, and Dirk had a handful of candy.

"All you got was a bit of candy?" Jake questioned him.

"Yeah," Dirk responded, stuffing his mouth with half of it.

"Here, have some of my food," Jake pushed his plate in between the two of them.

"No, I have candy," Dirk waved his hand in the air.

"Here, just one bite and you can tell me no," Jake held a pinch of the roll in front of Dirk's mouth. Dirk lit up bright red. He slowly took the bite into his mouth from Jake's fingers. Jake continued eating as if nothing had happened, but Dirk was blushing for five minutes after that.

Roxy dragged me with her to the bathroom before we left the food court.

"That was totally adorable!" She squealed.

"What? Dirk?" I asked.

"Yes! Jake didn't ewen notice. *Even," She slurred.

"I know, poor Dirk. He just likes him so much, and he may never see it. We both promised not to tell him to," I shook my head.

"Yeah, Dirk meh nevah get some a dat british booty!" Roxy shouted, drawing stares from an elderly woman and a few other young women.

*Jane and Jake's house* Dirk's POV:

We had all gathered at Jane and Jake's house to hang out. I was excited at first, but now I was just nervous.

"So, anyone has a date to Prom next weekend?" Roxy asked after taking a large sip of the vodka in her hand. Everyone shook their head. Of course Prom had finally come up. Our group had pressed it back because we weren't that into it, besides Roxy of course. It was extra credit to go, though and Roxy really needed it, so we agreed to go with her.

"Then, Jane. Will you go with me to Prom if no one asks you in da next 7 weeks? Uh, days?" Roxy stood up and faced Jane.

"Well, sure Roxy," Jane smiled.

"Yay!" Roxy fell into Jane's lap. Now, if it was a platonic event was for Roxy to know and only Roxy to know, because she wasn't answering Jane.

"Hey, Dirk. Do you want to do the same?" Jake looked sheepishly at me.

"Uh-Um, are you serious?" I felt like a fish with what my mouth was doing.

"Yeah, but if you don't want to I understand if you wish to go stag," He quickly blurted.

"No! I mean, yes! Yes, Jake, I want to go to Prom with you," more than anything, "if you don't get a date."

"Alright!" Roxy sang from Jane's lap. I was possibly going to Prom with the man of my dreams. Seven days. Seven.

In seven days I'd need a tux and basic Prom stuff. Seven days that would go by slowly.

It was Wednesday and a little pink, drunken birdy had told me that Annie was thinking about asking Jake to Prom. Like hell I was going to let that shit happen. It was lunch and I let Jane and Roxy in on my little plan. I watched Annie as she spoke to Mary about her own plan. Jake was messing with something on his trey and pulled over at a lone table. Annie made her move and I made mine. I fast walked to get to him first and I hugged him from behind, sneaking a look back to see the small girl's shocked expression.

I built up all of my courage and kissed the his shoulder, looking at him. He seemed kind of red, but who would blame him?

"Hey, Jake. Having trouble?" I looked down on his trey.

"Uh, no... I-I a-almost dropped some th-things," He stuttered. I had a rise of hope that he was flustered, but he was probably just a bit shocked from the impact of my pretty well built body crashing into his back.

"Oh, you look in need of some help. Oh, Annie, you need something?" I smirked back at her.

"U-uh, no," She turned and walked away in a hurry to get back to her table. Something I remember Roxy told me last year: Annie is a huge homophobic.

*Prom Night* Dirk's POV:

It was Prom night and Jake and I ended up having to go together. It was almost perfect. If only he'd agreed to have gone with me without any conditions.

"Jaaaaannnnneeeee! You look wonderful!" Roxy chirped. She was a little less hammered than usual, only a very light pink dusting her cheeks. Jane was wearing a light blue, poofy dress with white detailing. Roxy had on a knee length pink dress that wrapped around the back of her neck and extenuated her chest and figure perfectly.

"And you look, well, um, sexy," Jane hugged her.

"Dirk, bathroom's yours, Jake went upstairs?" Jane asked. I nodded my head and took the covered suit into the bathroom. I quickly changed and fixed my hair properly. I hadn't put my shades back on when I left the bathroom. Jake was standing there with messy, yet done hair, a pure black suit, and an emerald green tie to match his eyes.

Jake's POV:

I came down the stairs in my suit, the girls were finishing each other's hair and Dirk was no where to be seen. I was about to get the girls' attention when the door to the downstairs bathroom opened and Dirk stepped out. He had an open blazer and suit bottoms and shoes, a popping orange undershirt and no shades. His mutated orange eyes shined in the dim light of the hallway. I was breathless for a moment as our eyes locked. I had deflected three girls to have this moment. Three innocent girls that just wanted to go to Prom with the great and sext Dirk Strider had been shot away because I was being selfish. I am so glad I was selfish.

Dirk's POV:

I looked at Jake's emerald eyes for a few moments, stunned by his beauty. I regained myself and walked towards him.

"These are for you," I pulled flowers out from behind my back. I heard the girls giggle from the side.

"My prince Charming," He smiled at me.

The ride to school was a pretty long one with how far out Jake and Jane lived. Why did we decide to go there before this? In any case, I was pressed against Jake's side throughout the entire ride and I loved it. When we got there, there were lights, music, and many cars being parked. We finally got a place and we made our way inside.

"Let's dance!" Roxy pulled the three of us onto the floor and we danced to 'Timber' by Kesha, 'Chasing the Sun' by the Wanted, and 'Safe and Sound' by Capital Cities. Jane and Roxy decided to go get something to drink while Jake and I stayed on the floor. 'Beneath Your Beautiful' by Labrinth began. I went to take Jake's hand but a girl showed up before I could.

"Hi, do you mind if I dance this one with Jake?" It was Annie. Persistent little bitch.

"Uh, Dirk do you mind?" Jake asked.

"Yes," I stared at her through my shades.

"I just one dance, I'll be back," He assured me.

"No. You're my date, I love you, and I'm not letting you dance with this little slut," I motioned to her skimpy dress that barely clothed her. Jake and I looked at each other wide eyed at my words.

"Dirk, did you just say-" Jake began.

"I've had a crush on you since the day we met. Ok? You can go if you want," I had screwed up.

"I love you to," He smiled.

"What?" I was dumbfounded.

"I. Love. You. It seems we've both had a crush since we first met," He took my hand and pulled me close. Annie had disappeared somewhere and it was just Jake and I. We danced through the cliché Prom song until it was finished. We walked hand in hand to the drink counter where Jane and Roxy gave us questioning looks.

"Looks like you owe me twelve bucks, Jane," Roxy gave Jane a smug look. In response I leaned over slightly and kissed him on the cheek. He turned his head and returned it to the lips. His lips were soft, warm, and brief on my own. I would be sure to get a longer one by the night's end.
