If you read this chapter you will understand.

Why the fuck did my writing change from gentle to...to, well, whatever my writing is now, don't ask me. It's my brain's fault.

PizzaCatDavid: Well, my crush is my BFF, so...

I'm trying my best to get over her. I think I already did.

Rage against the dying of the : Ok, you may be well over my age limit I set for this, but I'm only 12, and things may get inappropriate soon.

IMPORTANT:

Also, you guys probably don't know what the dip is. It's like that thing you do in prom, where you slowly bring the person down, and slowly lift them back up. I don't know what it's called so uh, I'll call it the dip.

I signed running my hands through my hair as the conversation was leading nowhere. All the same basic facts, leading to the same basic answers.

Until, Just out of nowhere...

"Are you gay?" The words pinched my ears once I heard them. First it took a little time for my brain to grasp why she just said that, but I ignored my thoughts and just replied.

"Y-Yea." I stuttered.

"So, you've never been attracted to a boy?" She questioned.

"Never. The first person I was attracted to was my classmate in Grade 1, turns out she was a butt, a selfish, unworthy brat."

"Was she popular?"

"Yes." Of course, most popular people were attractive, however they were also unworthy people. The only way they did get their popularity was by beauty. They had minions following them and completing all their demands. In other words, most popular people just had the money to do whatever. Even worse, most popular people, were 'popular' because they were blonde and hot. I could just facepalm at today's beauty-driven society.

But this school was different. My friends were right, this school wasn't so beauty-driven at all.

For now, she was asking me all the questions, I wanted to ask her some. Who wouldn't want to know their crush better?

"Uh-" I took a pause breathing in and out, not trying to freak myself out.

"Are you gay?"

One side of my brain exploded in annoyance of me asking such a question, while my other side was like 'it's just a question, meh.' I mean, she asked me it first.

I turned to her waiting for an answer. I saw her first raise a brow, then finally answer my question.

"Yes, yes I am." She blankly stated.

"Well, if you didn't know, all the boys are runnin' for you." It wasn't a false statement. I saw the way all the boys looked at her, trying their chocolates and teddy bears, as well as their completely idiotic pickup lines at her. Like that'd win her heart.

"Boys are so annoying, they think that teddy bears and sucky pickup lines will win any girls heart. Even worse, they think that popping your collar super cool, when in reality they look like shit when doing that."

I couldn't agree with that more. Popping collars would just make you look like a Dracula begging for love, don't even dare trying to pop your collar. DO NOT DARE.

Enough with the explanations, I'm going to ask her another question.

"Do you like pop songs?" I nervously asked.

"Yea, but they keep repeating on the radio, till' it comes to the point that it's all you hear on the radio. Then, it dies off."

We were coming close to something that was booming with sound. I was guessing that was our destination.

"Well, do you know when the 'Talent show' is?" I asked hesitantly as we were approaching our destination.

"Oh that? That's in a few weeks. I may-" I had to inter up her for my more important massive complain.

"A few weeks! How do I learn to play a bass guitar in a few weeks?!" I shouted complaining.

She kept silent, she seemed quite shocked. I just, well, told her that's her destination.

"Well, uh, there's your destination." I pointed towards the building with flashing colors coming out from the windows, pointing out at every angle.

I turned around ready to go home, until something softly grabbed my hand. It pulled me closer to someone, and turned me around.

It was Lapis.

"You know, you can come along to the party, anyone's invited."

I really didn't want to take up her offer. I had so many assignments to still complete, a bass guitar to learn the chords to, most important avoid my parents.

Scratch that, I had no assignments or homework because I had completed them a week before, I didn't need to avoid my parents as they were going for weeks to some mission. All I really needed to do was... Nothing but learn a few chords.

90% of my brain demanded me to refuse and go back, the rest pleaded me to just... enjoy.

The 'rest' of my brain asked me how long it had been since I've enjoyed myself. It had a good point, I haven't enjoyed myself enough to even be called a human, so why not spend some time with the girl you're in love with?

The majority still commanded me to leave, and rather, I don't know, spend time not enjoying myself. Like that would be pleasant and all of a sudden make my miserable life enthralling.

Well, jeez sorry brain, but looks like today's my day off.

She dragged me into the party, where I saw people ecstatically dancing and drinking to the music coming out of the large boom box. I was impressed that I'd still coped up with my brain screaming, terrified of what would happen in the night. You never know, this one incident could change my life.

I caught Lapis grabbing two bottles while coming closer to me, pushing her way through the dancing crowd just to get to me.

"Here, have one."

My hands nervously shaked when trying to grab the unknown object, that all my life I have rejected to take.

"I've never tried these. Never."

"Well, there's first times for everything Peri." She replied.

I groaned, opening these bottles would even be a challenge to a heavyweight wrester. I handed it to Lapis who took the challenge, somehow opening it. What is this new magical way?

"How-wha?"

"You'll soon learn."

I immediately grabbed the drink from her in intimidation. How did she? I cannot even believe she did that in ease.

Taking a sip from the bottle, I tasted a metallic taste coming from this drink, almost about to spit it out.

"GaHHHH! *Almost vomits out drink* This is horrendous." I shouted, not affecting anyone around me as they were so absorbed in the music.

"It doesn't taste THAT bad." She said chuckling.

"Oh yes it does." I replied, nodding heavily.

She ignored my response. I could see her twirling and dancing, her hands gently swaying with every movement, and her tip toes dancing to the heavy beats, all of a sudden making them feel soft.

I just stared, with my mouth dangling from my head. Now I knew how all my friends felt when I sang that song. My hands automatically shut my mouth, and let me blink finally after the long stare. I was just enthralled, I mean, I've never seen someone dance so... So... I guess I'm out of words.

I'm impressed, I never knew Sour Cream could drop beats this could. But what impresses me more is how I actually agreed on doing this.

I felt Lapis's hand softly tug mine as she requested something.

"Come, dance with me."

Blood rushed to my cheeks as my body shaked nervously.

"I really don't know how-"

"You don't need to know how, just come." She asked again, this time interrupting me.

I really didn't want to mess up, as this might be the only change I get with her.

Suddenly, my brain came up with a great idea. I told Lapis to wait as I grabbed a bottle. Finished it in a second even though I regretted the taste afterwards.

Everyone knows, when you get drunk you do crazy stuff, it's not your fault. If I messed up, I could just blame it on the beer. Haha, great timing brain.

I gently accepted her requested and took her hand. She pulled me closer to her, almost too close. Our lips were merely inches apart, and our bodies were already touching. Our hands intertwined as my cheeks blush increased.

I've never been this close to anyone.

Her feet danced to the song as I tried to follow her beat. She twirled me and I neatly swayed my hands while doing so, just to remain back in our original place.

Her lips curled into a smile, and I mirrored her.

"See? You know how to dance." She complimented.

"Eh, it wasn't much." I admitted.

I didn't even mean to do this, but my body somehow decided that it could do this. It succeeded.

I 'dipped' Lapis, looking straight into her eyes. I slid my foot back, in the smooth ground, having a stance stable and no sign of dropping. After a few seconds I brought her back up.

"Woah, I wasn't even ready for the dip and you mastered that." She said in amazement.

"Uh, sorry for you not being ready." I apologized. Why did I even apologize?

"I didn't mean it like that."

"Blame my brain, it made me say that, not me."

Lapis laughed again, pulling me in closer than ever.

The side of my nose was already touching hers. I gulped as it felt like my heart tried to escape my body as how close we were.

"I'm happy that you came to this." She whispered to my lips.

I dragged my arms up to the point where her shoulders at neck met. She curled a smile when I did so.

Our lips touched, we couldn't go back after that. I wanted her, I needed her. And so did she.

Our lips met, gentle and subtle. We both wanted more, and so we did so.

I pushed my lips against hers, both of our eyes closed. I combed my hands through her luscious hair, and rubbed her cheek with my thumb. I pinned her onto a wall, her hands touching my hips, going through my undefined lines and curves.

The sharp canines I had tugged her lower lip, I felt her breath hitch the first time it happened.

She asked permission for her tongue to enter, me obliging to her command. I wanted to join in, slowly creating a battle between our tongues.

I was running out of breath, I pulled back. Even though I'd rather continue it, I needed breath, and it looks like Lapis needed it too.

"I'm happy that I accepted this." I replied to her long gone comment.

Just call my writing, 'the writing where you don't even know how to write anymore.'

Also, if the kiss seems quite similar, I kinda got the idea from Pearl and Dot's kiss in Keep Going. If you do want to read Keep going, you have to first read 'Still Here'.

Trust me, it's worth all the sarcastic comments and puns inside it.

Things may get inappropriate next chapter, or the one after.
