I woke up the next morning and got ready for school. I stepped outside to find Castiel waiting for me, like every morning. I lived near enough to him that we walked to school together every day.

"So are you going to the dance tonight?" I asked him, shouldering my backpack.

Castiel snorted. "Me? At a dance? No, you'd never catch me there."

"Well, I'm sorry I asked." I retorted.

Castiel rolled his eyes, and we continued down the street.

When we arrived at school, Castiel and I walked straight to the supply closet. I opened the door, and I hardly noticed Maggie and Nathaniel sitting in there, because right next to them was Lysander. I smiled at him, and he smiled back, and I sat down by him, Castiel on my other side.

"Maggie, I'll take a soda, if you don't mind," I said.

Maggie snorted and tossed me a can, but it was way off, so I leaped up and caught it.

"Thank you, thank you, cheering is optional, applause is required." I said and bowed.

They all laughed, except Castiel, who said, "What was the point in that?"

"Because I am such a ninja. Now clap." I demanded.

So they all half-heartedly clapped around their laughter, and I bowed and called, "Thank you Sweet Amoris! Good night!" and bowed again, then retook my seat.

So we chilled there most of the day, hanging out, laughing, cracking jokes. The day flew by really fast. Probably because I was really excited for the dance tonight. Lysander and I kept holding hands behind our backs, so nobody would see, but they all finally thought to give us some alone time, and took a trip to the roof.

I leaned back against Lysander's chest, and he wrapped his arms around me.

"I'm excited for tonight," I admitted after a few moments of silence.

"Same," he responded gently. "It'll be lots of fun."

I nodded, and snuggled deeper into his arms, and he set his chin on my head.

We set like that until the final bell rang, and he kissed the top of my head softly and whispered, "I'll pick you up at your house."

I nodded slightly and tore myself from him. "See you," I said, and exited the closet.

Back at home, I got ready for the dance. I straightened my long, blonde hair, and redid my makeup from earlier. Then I got dressed. I put on short black shorts, with tall black socks. I had on a dark teal shirt, with a black jacket and a necklace that was all I had left of my mother.

I looked over myself in the mirror, and smiled slightly.

"Hate to say it Harley, but you look hot," I told myself.

I grabbed my white shirt and pulled on my tall black boots just as the doorbell rang.

I walked outside to Lysander, who was dressed nicely as well, in his Victorian style clothes.

He held out his arm for me. "Ready to go, milady?" he asked jokingly.

I took his arm. "But of course, good sir."
We laughed and walked to the dance. When we arrived at the school, I noticed Rosalya and Leigh in the corner.

"How did Leigh get in here?" I whispered to Lysander.

"Probably pulled some strings. He's good at that, especially for Rosa." Lysander responded.

I nodded, and smiled as Maggie walked over to me, arm in arm with Nathaniel. She had a lengthy, royal blue dress on.

"I cannot believe my mother put me in this stupid dress! I hate dresses! It's the only way she would let me go!" Maggie cried.

I stifled a laugh.

Nathaniel sighed, like it was a topic they'd been over. "I think you look gorgeous Maggie."

Maggie blushed. "Thanks, Nate." She murmured.

We stood there and talked for awhile, then Nathaniel and Lysander got caught up in some conversation about fashion and went to go ask Leigh about it, after several promises that they would be right back, leaving Maggie and me alone.

I glanced at Maggie. "Sorry you have to wear a dress," I said.

Maggie shrugged. "At least I'm here."

"So," I said awkwardly. "Are you and Nathaniel dating?"

Maggie blushed and shook her head. "You and Lysander?" she asked.

I shook my head. "Nope, not yet."

Maggie raised a brow. "Yet?" she asked.

"Yet," I assured her.

We looked around. "Nobody's really dancing," Maggie commented.

I shrugged. "It's probably like in those romance movies, everyone dances to one really romantic song and then leaves."

Maggie nodded. "Probably."

So we talked awhile longer, then Rosalya walked over. She glanced at me, then turned to Maggie.

"Would you mind if I talked to Harley for awhile?" she asked.

Maggie raised a brow, then shrugged. "Sure, whatever." She said, and walked off.

Rosalya takes my hands and looks at me. "Are you and Lysander in a relationship?" she asked, interested.

"Um, not yet." I said uneasily.

Rosalya nodded. "Oh, okay, just wondering. Leigh said something about him getting home late, and he was pretty sure that you two were hanging out, and I was just wondering. I think you two would be cute together."

I blushed. "Thanks, Rosalya."

She shrugged. "It's the truth. Anyway, see you later." She said, and walked off.

A waltz song came on, and Lysander walked over to me. "Could I have this dance?" he asked.

"Of course," I whispered, and he took my hand and put his other hand on my waist.

We waltzed around the dimly lit gym for what seemed like an eternity. The only thing I could see was his gorgeous eyes and face, as we smiled at each other and danced.

It felt one moment too soon when the song ended.

"You ready to go?" Lysander asked. "They're starting to clear out."
"Sure," I said.

So we bade farewell to our friends, and left the school. We instantly walked to the park, like normal. A slight drizzle was falling, but I didn't mind, and I don't think Lysander did either. We stopped in the middle of a sidewalk, hazily lit by streetlights. Lysander held me around my waist, and my arms were around his neck. He smiled faintly at me.

"I'm glad you moved here Harley," he whispered.

"Me too, because if I hadn't, I'd never have met you," I responded.

He smiled and leaned down, but I ducked away from him playfully and pulled away from him.

"Oh no, mister." I told him jokingly.

He rolled his eyes. "What now?" he asked.

"For that, you have to catch me!" I cried and tore off through the park. Lysander laughed and chased after me.

The rain started falling harder until my hair was flattened against my neck and my clothes were damp, but I didn't mind. Lysander kept chasing me, but I was faster. He finally caught me when I tripped over a rock, and we stood there, holding each other.

"You know," he said. "They always say the best first kisses are in the rain."

"Really?" I asked. I smiled softly at him. "Why don't you prove it to me?" I finally whispered.

When he kissed me, the streetlights seemed to switch to high definition. We stood there, in the rain, our lips pressed together, until he finally pulled back.

"How was that for a first kiss?" Lysander murmured.

"Great," I whispered. "Let's see if you can make the second as good as the first."

We kissed again, and he pulled me closer to him. I finally pulled back, and he smiled and picked me up, twirling me around, both of us soaked by the cool rain. When he finally set me down, I struggled to stand, the world around me spinning.

He laughed and took my hand. "I'll walk you home," he said.

So we walked home, up to my apartment and stood outside the door.

"Do you have to go yet?" I asked quietly, my voice slurred with fatigue.

"It's getting late, Leigh will be wondering where I am," Lysander said and kissed my nose gently. "I'll see you tomorrow, I promise. Go in and get some rest."

I nodded, and we kissed again, and he whispered, "Good night, Harlz."

"Night Lysander," I said, and before I could lose my courage, I whispered, "I love you,"

He smiled at me, and murmured, "I love you, too, Harley."

He turned and walked away, and I walked inside, changed into pajamas, and curled up in bed and fell asleep instantly.

My dreams were of Lysander.
