PPGZ: Boomer and Miyako Chapter 4, Part 1

Boomer's POV

"Come on, Boomer! We gotta get going!" Butch pounded on the door.

Boomer was fixing his tie. He wanted every last detail to be perfect. Tonight was the dance. Tonight would be his first dance with Miyako. He got butterflies just thinking about tonight.

"I'm coming!" he shouted back at Butch.

After making sure his fly was zipped and his tie and tie correctly, he met his brothers in the living room. Once they were all ready, they headed out the door to Miyako's house to pick up the girls. Boomer couldn't wait to get there and see her. They had both been busy these last couple days but talked on the phone every night.

Crossing the street, they were at her house. Boomer was suddenly a nervous wreck. He felt completely awkward in his jacket and tie. He thought his hair was a mess. He was trying to come up with a reason of why he was doing this.

"Hey, Boom!"

He looked up to see Miyako standing there. She had a beautiful light blue dress on, her hair was curled and pulled back and she was wearing the necklace he had given her.

'Oh yeah. That's why.' He thought going over to her. He greeted her with a kiss.

"Hey" he began "Ready to get going?"

"Yep! Let's go!" she replied grabbing his hand and smiled.

He smiled back and led her down the street, his brothers and the other girls right behind them. When they got to the school, they hardly recognized it. It was covered in white lights. It looked so romantic. Boomer looked at Miyako and her eyes were glowing. He was just happy that she was happy.

As they went inside, it was even better inside. There was a DJ and everything.

"Wow! They really went all out!" Miyako said.

"Yeah, I could barely recognize this place." Kaoru added.

"I hope they have good music!" Momoko replied.

"Like a lot of slow songs..." Boomer said, pulling Miyako in close. He gave her an eskimo kiss.

They all talked for a while before Momoko heard her favorite song and dragged Brick out to dance. Kaoru and Butch followed, leaving Boomer and Miyako by themselves.

"So..." Boomer began.

"So..." Miyako answered, blushing.

"Wanna get some punch?" Boomer asked.

"Sure!"

They went and got their punch and went and sat on the bleachers.

"You look really pretty tonight."

"Thanks. You look really handsome in your jacket and tie."

They gave each other a little kiss as the song changed. The DJ put on "I'll be" by Edwin McCain. Boomer set his punch down and turned to Miyako.

"Would you care to dance, milady?" He said bowing.

"I would be honored, kind sir!" she replied, giggling.

He led her out to the dance floor, putting his hands around her waist while she put hers around his neck. They just swayed back and forth to the music. He felt her put her head on his shoulder. Boomer was the happiest he had ever been before.

'I'm at the dance, slow dancing with my girlfriend: the girl of my dreams. This is the best night ever.' He thought.

As the song ended, they shared a special kiss. A kiss that said 'There's no one else I'd rather be here with.' When a new song started to play, they went and met up with the rest of the group. They all danced together for a few songs before another couples song came on. Then they divided in pairs. This time it was "It's In His Kiss (The Shoop Shoop Song)" by Betty Everett played.

Everyone danced and ate and talked and had a great time. They danced to more group songs like "You Belong with Me" by Taylor Swift, "Don't Stop Believing" by Journey, and "Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)" by Beyonce. Boomer and his brothers made the girls crack up when they did the entire dance! After that they all decided to take a break. Heading over to the bleachers again, Boomer heard Miyako speak,

"Thank you so much for tonight."

He turned around and listened to her.

"It was just perfect."

Pulling her into an embrace, Boomer whispered to her,

"Just like you."

He looked down at her to see her blushing. He pulled her into a kiss and they sat down. Miyako took off her shoes and put her legs across Boomer's lap, hugging his chest. They talked from then until the end of the dance.

After heading outside, they met up with the rest of the group.

"Hey" Butch began "We're gonna take the girls home and we'll meet you back at the house okay, Boom?"

"Sure. See you later"

Once they had left, Boomer and Miyako started for her house. Still not wearing shoes, Miyako stopped suddenly when they got to a puddle. He could see that she didn't know whether to put her shoes back on or not. So Boomer picked her up and carried over it.

"Why thank you, sir. You are a true gentleman." She said putting her arms around his neck.

"Anything to help a damsel in distress!" Boomer said, smiling.

They laughed, talking about everything. Boomer carried her the entire way home, loving every step of the way.
