OK, this is my first ever FanFic, so I hope it's OK.

All the characters belong to Meg Cabot.

Part of the dialogue is taken from Twilight.

This takes place after/during Twilight, so there will be spoilers.

"God, why couldn't I look more like Suze? He'd got out with me then."

I leaned into the mirror as I applied my new mascara. Stupid 'sensitive skin' mascara. Why did I have to be albino, and so fat? If I looked more like my best friend, Suze, he'd go out with me then. God, does he have to leer at her so much? Well, I guess he doesn't know how I feel about him. I mean, we've been friends since like forever, which is about as long as I've been in love with him for.

Oh well, at least she's at the auction all day, at least I get to be alone with him.

Ring.

He's here!

"CeeCee?" Adam seemed preoccupied.

"Yes?" I met his gaze over the table.

"I need to ask you something.

"I know we've been friends for a long time, but recently I've started to feel slightly differently. I didn't want to do or say anything to jeopardise our friendship, but these feelings have become too strong for me to ignore. I know you don't feel the same way, but my feelings are too strong for me to ignore."

He looked me in the eye.

"CeeCee, will you go to the dance with me?"

I gasped. "Um, I have to go to the restroom." I ran out of the room and grabbed my cell.

"Hello?" Suze sounded worried.

"Suze? Oh my God, you'll never believe what just happened." I knew I sounded out of breath, but I didn't care.

"What?" She sounded like she wanted to care, but was too busy. I hoped she was OK.

"He asked me. Adam. Adam asked me to the Winter Formal. We're just at the Coffee Clutch, you know, having cappuccinos-we'd have asked you, only I knew you were at the auction all day-"

"Uh-huh." Oops, I was boring her. Oh well, she'll survive.

"-and he just asked me. Out of the blue. I had to run outside and call you. He's still inside. I just…Oh, my God. I had to tell someone. He asked me." God, I really needed to slow down.

"That is so great, CeeCee."

"I guess I should go back in and say yes," I said. "I should say yes, right? Or should I play hard to get? I don't want him to think I'm too eager. And it is next weekend. Technically, he should have asked me a long time ago-"

She laughed. Ah-hah, she's finally realised what I'm saying. "CeeCee. Are you nuts? Hang up the phone, go inside, and say yes."

"I should, shouldn't I? I just…I mean, I've been wanting this to happen for so long, and now it is, and I…well, I just can't believe it…"

"CeeCee." OK, I get the point.

"Hanging up now". I closed the phone and walked back out. I sat down. "Adam, I have the same feelings." I took his hand. "I always have."

"So it's a yes?" He started to smile.

"It's always been a yes."

And that's when I got my first kiss. Excellent!

It must be the new mascara.

I hope it's good…I'll update soon when I've got some reviews.
