AN: It's the night of the prom, and it will be one of those nights that Alex and David will never, ever forget.
Chapter Six: A Prom Night To Remember
As Friday evening rolled around, everyone was getting ready for the big night. David, Lynn, Alex, and Justin were in their respectable homes, getting ready for the prom. David look at his tuxedo in the mirror. He was dressed in it nice, while Louis and Villo looked on and smiled at the young man before him.
"Looking good!" Villo smiled.
"Yeah, now we need to do something about your Jagan, of course." Louis said. David looked back in the mirror, and saw the third eye looking back at him. He grabbed a special hat that came with the tux. He placed it on his head, and found that it fit perfectly.
"Nice." Louis complimented. Just as David finished dressing himself and placing the finishing touches on his outfit, a horn rang out from the outside. David looked out, and saw Justin sitting in a car with Alex, waiting on David and Lynn to join them. Lynn walked into the room, dressed in her white gown with her long black hair down to her shoulders.
"Come on, let's go!" Lynn said, eagerly. But of course, they couldn't leave just like that. David gather them in the living room, and took a picture of them together. And of course, when Justin and Alex came inside to see them, they took pictures of the respectable couples together. After about ten minutes of mushy pictures, The four left, and they were ready to have a good time. Louis and Villo watched as they left.
"So, have you heard about the dreams that Alex has been having?" Louis told his lion friend.
"Yep. David told me all about it." Villo said. "Alex is really going to be put to the test tonight, and that goes without saying, my friend."
"Yeah." Louis nodded in agreement.
"So, want to make a bet?" Villo said.
"About what?" Louis asked back.
"A bet to see if they do it tonight, you know, David and Alex." Villo said.
"I can't believe that you would think that I would waste my time on such a silly thing like that." Louis said in disbelief.
"Do you?" Villo asked again as if Louis had said nothing.
"$50 says that they won't do nothing at all tonight." Louis said, with a smile.
"You are on." Villo smiled.
The gymnasium was decorated to the ceiling for the Junior Prom. Streamers, balloons, and a giant banner that read "Junior Prom" in big midnight blue letters. David, Lynn, Alex, and Justin saw their friends spread out all over the gym. David and Justin went over to their friends, while Alex and Lynn did the same. There were many of the students there with their dates that were having a really good time. David and Justin watched as their sisters and their friends were in the corner having a blast talking to their friends.
"So, how was Alex on their way here?" Justin asked.
"Fine, but I could tell that she was uncomfortable being that close to me." David sighed, leaning back against the wall. "What if something happens tonight? That will change the way we look at each other, and if that leads to the end of us again..."
"It won't." Justin said. "And if something happens tonight between the two of you, then it happens, and you couldn't control fate."
"Thanks, that is a way of looking at things, I suppose." David said. Justin smiled, and playfully punched David in the arm. Then the announcement came on the loud speaker, saying that it was time for a couple's only slow dance. Lynn came over, and grabbed Justin. Not soon afterwards, Alex came and took David to the center of the dance floor.
As the soft slow music played through out the gym, Alex felt so comfortable in her boyfriend's arms. Alex always felt the dangers fo the world melt away whenever the two of them were like this, whatever dangers that they were in, it would not matter because they were together. Alex never would have thought that in her wildest dreams that a boy she met in preschool would be her boyfriend and true love all of these years later, but that is a different story, for a different time. (Hint, Hint.)
"How are you enjoying yourself?" David asked Alex, softly.
"Just fine. I am glad that I am here with you." Alex said.
"I am glad to be here." David said.
"I love you so much." Alex said.
"I love you, too." David replied.
Alex and David were driving home from the prom, and it was really late in the evening. David and Alex weren't a few miles from there house, when out of nowhere, a lightning bolt hit the front of David's car. Miraculously, it did no major damage, but it did leave a scorch mark on the hood.
"Alex, are you alright?" David asked.
"Yeah, I'm fine." Alex said visibly shaken.
"Well, the car is dead, so we better walk the rest of the way." David said, getting out of the car, and opening Alex's door so she could follow him.
"Well, at least it's not raining." David said as they walked on the sidewalk. Right as he finished his statement, however, rain started to pour down on them.
Man, the universe just loves proving me wrong, doesn't it? David thought to himself as he and Alex began running towards David's home.
David and Alex finally reached David's house, but not before David and Alex became soaking wet from their jog from their battery dead car.
"Man, I am soaked." Alex said. She wrung out her hair, and it stuck to her face as it dropped down.
"Change out of that before you catch a cold." David told Alex. Alex nodded, and headed for Lynn's room to get some clothes. David headed for his room to do the same.
Alex found some of Lynn's clothes that she could wear. She knew that she should fully dress herself, but she decided that just wearing a long sleeved t-shirt over her underwear would be fine. Alex still had wet hair as she walked out of the home, and walked towards David's room. Alex saw that the door was cracked open, and she peeked in to see what he was doing, and got a very big surprise.
David was wearing no clothes as Alex watched his ripped physique walk towards his dresser, and pull out some boxers. David walked over, and pulled on a pair of sweats. To Alex's pleasure, and Terror, that was all he was wearing. Alex stepped away from the door as David walked towards it.
"Alex, want to sit on my bed, and watch a movie?" David asked her.
Alex couldn't respond, so all she was able to muster was a nod of the head, yes. David smiled as he pulled her into the room.
Help me...
