Chapter 8
"Sheridan I love you so much" he told her as he kissed her on the forehead.
"I love you too Luis." Sheridan told him as he rested her head on his chest.
The teacher came up from behind and said, "What is going on in here?"
"Um... you see we just had two periods of lecture so this is our free period" Luis told the teacher.
"Don't ever say the word free. I hate the word FREE. Why does everything have to be free? You buy one drink the other is free, you come to school you get education for free, you get books for free, you get teachers who teach you for free, you get lunch for free, WHY IS EVERYTHING FREE? I hate the word free." The teacher told them. He took off his glasses and now he couldn't see at all. Luis and Sheridan took this opportunity to getaway from him. The teacher was still talking to him self and he didn't even realize that he was talking to himself. When he put on his glasses he saw girls standing there laughing at him. He really made a fool out of him.
Few days flew by and now it was a day of the dance. Everyone was going to the dance, it was going to be so much fun. Sheridan and Theresa were still in the room getting ready while Paloma, Luis, Ethan, Miguel and Charity were waiting downstairs. They were getting impatience; they'd been waiting for the girls to come down for half an hour already and they still hadn't come down.
" Are they ever going to come down?" Paloma asked
"They better come down soon or I'm going up there to drag them down here." Ethan said laughing.
"Sheridan, Theresa, come down already." Luis yelled from downstairs.
"We're coming, gosh calm down" Sheridan yelled back.
"I'm going to count to 10 and if you are not down here after that, then we're leaving" Luis told them.
"10"
"9"
"8"
"7"
Luis counted to seven and then he saw his sister and Sheridan coming down the stairs. He stopped right there and couldn't believe his eyes. Sheridan looked so beautiful. She was 'wow' she looked hot.
Sheridan and Theresa noticed they had left them speechless.
"I see we have left you guys speech less huh?" Theresa asked
"I don't know what to say WOW Theresa you look beautiful." Ethan said as he walked over to her.
"Sheridan-You look beautiful, stunning, gorgeous, elegant, and so many things I don't know I have time to say those things." He grinned at her.
"I see Luis Lopez-Fitzgerald has been reading thesaurus." She told Luis while she kissed him sweetly on the lips.
"Ohh, I don't need to read the thesaurus to tell how sexy you look tonight." He gave her his killer smile.
"OK you two what do you say we go already, I'm getting sick here looking at all of ya." Paloma said smiling.
"Aww sis, why you don't want us to have fun?" Miguel teased
"I do want you to have fun all of you here are kissing each other and I am just looking at you stupidly." She told Miguel
"How about we kiss you too?" Ethan teases
"Don't you dare go there, I am absolutely fine and I will be dancing with lots of guys tonight." She told Ethan.
Luis decided to stop all of them before there was a huge battle regarding who was going to dance with Paloma and who wasn't.
"I think we should leave now" he announced
Everyone nodded in agreement.
After a few minutes, they arrived at Harmony High. They walked in the gym and were in awe. They couldn't believe how the gym was transformed into a beautiful ballroom. There were balloons and flowers at every round table. Luis noticed that the photographer was at the other end of the gym. "Hey Sheridan, why don't we get our picture taken now so we have the rest of the night to ourselves." "Alright Luis." Luis took Sheridan's hand into his and they started to walk to the back of the gym but Hank and Beth stopped them. "Hey buddy. Hi Sheridan." "Hey Hank, Beth," Luis acknowledged them while Sheridan just smiled. "So, I take it that you brought Beth to the dance?" "Yeah, since we both didn't have a date, we decided to go together." While Luis and hank were talking, Sheridan was looking at Beth while Beth was admiring Luis. Luis noticed how uncomfortable Sheridan was around Hank and Beth. "Well guys, if you will excuse us, Sheridan and I are going to get our picture taken." Luis and Sheridan continued to the back of the gym. They took several pictures. The last one was Sheridan's favorite: they were facing each other, Luis' hands on her hips and Sheridan's hand were resting on Luis' broad chest. 'Luis smells so good. I can't wait for the slow songs.' Finally, there was a song that Sheridan and Luis both liked and slow danced on it. They both had danced on every single song that came on. Luis placed one hand on her face and the other one around her waist. He pulled her closer and whispered; "I love you" He began playing with her hair. She looked into his eyes and said "I love you too with all of my heart."
They both kissed, the kiss started out as a sweet and short kiss but then the kiss turned into a passionate kiss. When they pulled apart Sheridan just rested her head on Luis's chest and continued to dance.
After the dance everyone came back home, they all had a great night and were exhausted, just wanted to go to bed.
The next morning everyone was at the breakfast table eating pancakes when Sheridan excused herself from the table. Luis went after her to see if she was ok.
Luis came from behind, put his hands around her waist, and said "Sher Are you ok?"
"Yeh I am fine, I just miss mom today. I don't know why but I am just missing her so much today."
"Oh Sheridan I'm so sorry."
"I know you miss her and I do too." Luis told her
He turned Sheridan around so now she was facing him, he took her hand in his and looked right into her eyes and said, "What do you say we go out tonight? Just you and me"
"Ohh you want me to go out with Chris?" She laughed quietly.
""OH, now you did it." Luis took hold of Sheridan around the waist, pushed her down on the sofa, and started tickling her.
"Please Luis stop. Stop Luis." "Not until I get the answer I want to hear." "Umm. Let me think about it." She said between her screams. "Ok. Ok. Of course, I will go out with you."
Luis stopped tickling Sheridan. They both got off the sofa and went back into the kitchen.
Mel looked at Sheridan and asked "Aunty Sheridan are you ok?"
"Of course I'm ok." She giggled as she tickled Mel's side.
Love it? Hate it? Feedback is loved?
