HEY EVERYONE! I back! Yes, I know its been forever since I last wrote so sorry bout that, but let me tell ya I've actually been writing just havent posted any of my work yet. But I will, soon! This is the last chapter of The Dance, but once you are done reading it. Look at my comment below.
The night continued to dance on. The multicolored lights continued to shine and brighten the large room. A majority of the people at the party were up on their feet, dancing as the music flew through the room. Their feet moved in sync with the beat of drums from the song that played. One particular couple was dancing near the middle of the room. The two did not even move their steady gaze at one another.
"So..." the Amanda said as she couldn't really think of anything more to say.
"So..." Mike responded as he too couldn't think of anything.
"Where did Kelly and Owen go to?"
"Umm...Oh there they are" Mike said as he looked over his 'now girlfriend's' shoulder.
Owen and Kelly were still at the snack table. Kelly had her phone out and she seemed to be texting someone, and Owen had his hands filled with sweets.
"They look so happy together" Mike had to say, which left Amanda laughing at the comment. It was pretty funny how Owen could be eating and Kelly would still carry the smile that she had on her face when they were dancing.
"Well they aren't the only ones who are happy together"
"Yeah, that's true, Braden and Lilly look happy too" Mike said as he looked over Amanda's shoulder at the quarterback and cheerleader couple, which ended with Amanda punching his shoulder. Which was not hard enough to leave a mark, but to leave Mike pretending to be in pain.
"Ouch" Mike said as he bit his lip, mimicking the actions of someone who just got punch by someone even larger then two ton Harley.
"Oh stop" Amanda said as she shook her head while smiling at her boyfriend's amusing action. Mike dropped the act after a little while.
"But they're not the only ones who are very happy"
"Oh, who are you talking about? Jake and Lizzie? Brady and Kristen?" Amanda started naming off couples who were scattered around the room.
"You know, they all look incredibly happy, but I don't think anyone can be as happy as I am"
"Really? Whys that?"
"Cause they didn't just confess all their love to someone they've had a crush on since the 5th grade, and the person that they did have a crush on admitted the exact same feelings back" Mike said, which ended with them both looking at one another with a smile.
"Well I guess we win, happiest couple don't we?" Mike said.
"They need to get you a trophy"
"Nah, I think you are more special to me then any trophy they could give me"
Mike leaned towards Amanda and placed his lips onto hers, and for a brief moment they left this crazy world. Instead of the beats of the music vibrating the ground, they could feel each other's pulse as the two kissed.
The two continued to dance to the music and soon noticed Owen has stopped eating and has taken Kelly onto the dance floor and they danced just a few feet away from them. Songs of all genres and all artists blasted through the speakers.
After another hour, the dance was coming to a close. Every five or so minutes one of the couples or group of friends would be calling it a day and going home. Amanda's eyes seemed to blink more then often and it seemed as if she was hiding a yawn every few minutes. Even thou Amanda was trying to hide the signs of becoming tired, Mike noticed every single one.
"We should get going" Mike said as he turned to his side to where Amanda had her head resting on his shoulder as they slowly moved to the last lyrics of the song: Realize by Colbie Calliat
"Alright I say lets call it a night"
The two of them finished dancing to the song and walked over to where Kelly and Owen were. The two of them were finished with dancing and resorted to taking a break around one of the tables.
"We're getting tired, so we're heading out" Mike said.
"Care if Kelly and I walk with ya guys?"
"Sure you guys can" Amanda said as she grabbed her purse off the table.
The four of them walked out of the building and started walking down the road. As they reached the suburbs, they could see the bright stars took the place of the bright city lights. They illuminated the streets as the four silhouettes walked in the shadows.
"Well, I'll see ya tomorrow Amanda" Kelly said as the two embraced once they reached the road where the two couples would be separating.
"Yep, see ya then" Amanda answered back. She then looked at her boyfriend and the two of the continued their walk down the road. Within a few minutes, they reached the driveway to the large house where McKay family lives.
Mike held Amanda's hand as they made their way up the driveway which was lit up by the surrounding solar lights that made a path to the main door.
"I had a great time Mike" Amanda said as she looked at him.
"I did too"
"So, what time do you want me to stop over?"
"Whenever you want, my dad is working tomorrow so we can have some extra practice time in the dojo"
"Sounds good"
"Oh by the way, I think this is yours" Mike said as he pulled a gold ring from his pocket and held it out to her.
Amanda was so happy to see that familiar gold ring, she placed her arms around Mike and embraced him in a hug. Amanda pulled away slightly to watch Mike place it back onto her hand. As the two talked, kissed, and hugged again. The stars danced above them in the midnight sky. A shooting star flew over of them and disappeared in a flash, and the two silently wished that this moment would last forever.
5yrs later (they are 21)
that exact scene would happen again on the same porch, with the same light shinning down on them, with the same stars sparkling over them, Mike even had a ring in his hand again, but this time, he was down on one knee.
Just think, that person you asked to that dance yesterday, could actually be the person you will be marrying one day.
Hope everyone enjoyed it! It took me forever to think of a good way to end this one. Anyways please review on it, thanks!
My next story will be going up probably next month sometime because the "topic" if you will, is something that happens during the later part of spring, sooo...yeah. Not trying to give away any hints, hehehe. I have been working on this next fanfic non-stop and trying to make it one of the best, I know it will be a somewhat "shorter" fanfic, but I hope you love it in the end.
Love you all very much!
