A/N Somebody left me a coment asking me if i was a troll. I think I know what you mean by that, though im not super super into phanfiction and all those terms so correct me if im wrong. i am not a troll. Im sorry about my spelling and grammer mistakes. from now on ill try much harder (look how hard im trying! -) the truth is that i dont have a writing program on my computer in my bedroom that has spellcheck and alot of times when I write I am just so in the zone I write it so fast and ok, i dont check things. I will try to be more conscientitious ok? and i will fix my profile, sorry! i do that alot by accident and my friends and i joke about it so i do it on purpose a little bit now too.

so on with the show!

------------------------

There seemed to be silence in the entire gym for what seemed like ever, except it was probably about 2 seconds.

Erik stood mortified. He wanted to kick himself in the butt if that was possible. Why did he think this was a good idea? He turned to flee, but realized that his exit was blocked, by a large jockish type guy who was dressed like a rap star "wigger" style.

"Whoa man!" the wigger jockish guy cried out, "Dude, that is some awesome makeup!"

There seemed to be a silent sigh of relief throughout the gym. Erik relaxed a little, maybe things would work out in the end. His mother always told him that things really work out if theyre meant to be, if not, they dont work out. Maybe this would be the equilvalent of Erik's coming out of society moment and that it would be like all the times he dreamed in his life when he would be truly accepted and maybe even fall in love.

There were general aggreements from the crowds and everyone seemed t go back to their own busines, everyone that is, except Kris, who seemed hypnotized like a cobra to its tantalizer or a mth to a brightly burning flame... she continued towards him.

"...Hi" she whispered breathy. Normaly Kris was never shy, however this guy was like... way more intense and edgy than she was. And that makeup! She couldnt believe that he had been able to transform what was obviously such a hott face into what was before her. He looked absolutely hideous and disgusting, like someone had beaten him with an ugly stick...

"Hi." Erik paused. Here he was at the mment that he dreamed about his entire life and he couldnt think of anything to say, it wasnt like online, it was so hard to talk to her face to face. What if he said something stupid and she went on her way? Rich was tehre and he saw him out of the corner of his eye glaring at them both.

"I really like your costume." Kris continued. "It looks so original. Did you order it online?"

"Heh... no actually... I made it."

Kris's eyes went wide. "really? I didnt realize people made such cool costumes on their own. I guess I didnt really think aout it, huh? I feel kinda stupid now." she giggle nervously.

"Dont you ever feel stupid, K-" he stopped, he had better be careful or he was going to mess up a lot and then boy there would be some real trouble!

"Ok, tall dark and handsome. Are you alone?"

"..well... you see... n- i mean yes. yes i am alone."

"Do you wanna hang out with Megz and my other friends. Hey! I dont even know your name. Are you a senior?"

"My name is Erik and sure, Id love t hang out with you and your friends."

Kris grabbed his hand and she felt it tense up underneath the black silken glove he wore. She furrowed her brow.

"What's wrong?"

"Nothing. Nothing Im sorry. I just have never been touched by true beauty before."

Kris's face broke out into a big smile, and neither have I... come on!"

Right as she got Erik to her social circle, Megz pulled her away, "Oh Kris, he's so handsome!"

Kris blushed a little, she felt a little bad that Megz hadnt met any hotties yet but that was ok she reasoned. She did go home with Rich that day and she wasnt sure what what up with that. Babysitting her left one, she thought.

"I know I know! So what are you doing taking me away frm him over here?"

they both giggled and jumped up and down a little and hugged.

"Oh Kris, I hope htis will be true happiness for you then."

"I hope so too."

IN the meantime the lighting had changed and it as time fr a slow song. It wasnt something that Kris would typically dance to, but she was smitten when Erik extended his hand t her and led her to the dance floor amongst everyone she didnt like. They looked at her and Erik with a strange strange look that Kris read as jealousy. She was falling in love, and it was a great time even though she didnt htink it was going to be since she didnt go with Rich.

"Am I going to see you on Monday?" Kris asked, "You know, in school? Or are you going to ignore me when we all look like we do everyday?"

"I will never ignore you, I promise"

"Please don't let me go. Ever"

They were into the second slow song when they were violently thrust apart. Kris cried out in indiginte shock and surprise and Erik cried out in a bought of anger. That gentle guy she was holding, it didnt even sound like him.

"WHAT DO YOU THINK YOURE DOING!"

Kris's eyes widened.

It was Rich!
