Date?

My knees shook as I approached her. I could feel sweat drip down my neck as I tapped her on the shoulder. "H-hey," I stuttered as she turned around to face me. We were standing near her locker in the middle of a crowded High School hallway.

"Hey?" she responds, looking me up and down, trying to put together why I was acting so weird.

For a moment, I almost ducked out. I almost said, "Nevermind," but I didn't. I took a deep breath, pushed my doubts aside, and said, "Madeline, I really like you." I look away so I can save myself from her reaction, but I keep talking. "It's okay if you don't like me back. I was just- I wanted you to know."

I slowly look back at her to see her give a wild smile and say, "Yes."

"W-what?"

"I mean, sure, yes, I'll date you," she clarifies. I feel my heart start to race as she takes my hand and leads me down the hallway towards our class.

"You know," she tells me two months later at our prom as we dance a slow dance to a song from the '90s, "I always liked you. I was just waiting for you to get up the guts to ask me out."

"Wait, really?" I ask her, pulling away to look her in the eyes.

"Yes, really Charlie!" She says, pulling me back into her to continue our dance.
