SM owns. Unbeta'd

That time we danced at prom...


"May I have this dance?"

Yeah, you bet I just asked her to dance.

Everyone's finishing up their dessert at their respective tables and I can't stand it anymore.

I want to dance.

Irina's busy showing off to her friends about how U Penn and Duke both gave her a scholarship and she just can't decide which school has more to offer her. I don't know, I kind of zoned out after she mentioned her nearly perfect SAT score. I bet she doesn't tell them how she begs me to make her come.

Bella's chatting with her artsy friends and laughing at something Alec... the boyfriend, says before her head snaps up at the sound of my voice.

Everyone else's head does the same thing. Alec gives me a hard look, which makes me grin just a little.

I hold out my hand, waiting for her to take it. She looks confused, shocked, maybe a little pissed at me?

I just keep smiling and tilt my head towards the dance floor.

"C'mon, dance with me. You don't mind, Alec, right? I just want to have a dance with my best friend." I eye the boyfriend. He kinda looks a little like that dude from the Mac commercials.

He glares at me before smiling and leaning into Bella, turning her face towards him and kissing her.

With tongue.

Asshole knows exactly what he's doing.

"Sure. Come back to me, okay, baby?"

Baby? I scoff. Baby.

She hates that term.

I've had enough of his shit so I take her hand and pretty much pull her away towards the dance floor.


A/N: Oh, high school. I'm so soooooo glad to be out of that hot mess.
