"Would you go to the dance with me?"
The locker slammed closed to reveal her science lab partner from the other day standing opposite her. Or rather he was leaning on the lockers. Surprised lit Diana's face.
The boy jumped to offer his hand. "Sorry. Steve Trevor. I was your--"
"I remember."
"So. Would you go?" Not knowing what to say, Diana opened her mouth. Nothing came out.
"She would love to go with you," a voice behind her spoke up. Diana whirled around and came face to face with Linda. "Wouldn't you, Di?"
Diana gave Steve a polite smile. Taking it as a yes, Steve Trevor broadened his smile. "Great! So I'll see you later ok?"
"Alright."
With several books under his arm, Steve Trevor sprinted away like a boy who just got a new car.
"Yes!!!! You're going to the dance!! We should go on a double date. You with Trevor and me with Wally. Ahh!! Isn't that great?"
Diana's eyes glowered. She fought back the urge to scream in her friend's ears. "I didn't say yes."
"Of course you did, silly."
"Did you hear me say yes? That boy must have a whole in his brain."
"Well, the way you acted said yes."
"What was I supposed to do after you said that?"
"Aww. Come on, Diana. It'll be your first dance here. And think of it!! One of the hottest guys in school asked you to go!! This dance will be great, really. I mean it's not gonna be as good as the Autumn Dance, but it'll be great! Wait 'til you see the decorations. They're not up yet, but the artists here are just amazing at doing those. Really "
Diana let the words flew out of her other ear as Linda kept droning on. Her mind wandered as her feet carried her to her next class.
What was she supposed to do now? And Shayera? But she can't now just bluntly say no. She shook her head to clear out the thought. Well, She still has another week before the dance.

Does the last part make Diana sound too mushy?
Tell me if it does
