'Africa' by Toto plays for the fifth time tonight.

The worst streamers hung around the main hall and small tables are littered around the edges.

Prom is one of the nights when you can clearly see the food chain.

The 'popular' group are always dancing or flirting with the young male teachers.

The 'nerds' sitting around on the tables avoiding eye contact with everyone.

The 'gamers' are lacking half of the usual group due to them wanting to stay at home to simply game.

The 'jocks' are running around downing the drinks as if they are alcohol and picking up any girl that seems to be alone.

And then there is the 'I don't give a fuck' group.

That's you and Louis.

"This is so bad" he says to you, throwing his head back and groaning.

You nod, agreeing with him.

"How come you ended up without a date then?" You ask him as he returns to your gaze.

He looks at you in confusion.

"I thought you were my date?" He asks.

"Well you never asked me" you say pointedly.

He looks taken back, scratching the back of his neck.

"Well y/n would you like to be my date?" He asks nervously.

"No" you say turning away from him.

"No?"

"I would actually much rather ditch this stupid prom with you" you look back at him again.

He smiles and takes your hand, leading you out the door and into the night.

After about five minutes of walking, you reach the local park.

You lift your dress up so you can run over to the swings. Your neatly curled hair blows behind you as you run. Louis loud laugh fills the air around you making you smile.

Once you are both secured into a swing, you reach into your bra and pull out a pack of cigarettes and a lighter.

Louis stares and you funny as you open the pack and hand him one, placing it between his lips.

"Well most dresses don't have pockets do they?" You say almost sarcastically.

He nods in agreement as you light your own cigarette and then light his too.

You both sit there peacefully for a few minutes before he decides to break the silence.

"This is so much better than prom" He says and you nod in agreement.

"Can I kiss you?" He asks after putting out his cigarette and chucking it on the ground.

You frown.

"Once you've picked that up and put it in the bin you can yeah" you say seriously.

He groans but does as you say.

"Now?" He asks and you nod.

His lips mould into yours as you both sigh in relief.

Your arms hooked around his neck and his around your waist, you don't pull away until you are desperate for breath.

"I really like you y/n" he says looking into your eyes.

"Hmm Okay" You say back to him.

He looks shocked as his mouth opens and closes again like a fish.

You laugh and pat his shoulder before running through the park field again.

He runs up to you and picks you up, throwing you over his shoulder. You giggle and hit his back screaming for him to let you down.

"Not until you say you like me back!" He says laughing too.

"Fine. Fine!" You shout loudly.

He gently places you down and you lean your head on his chest.

"I really like you too" You say and he smiles before putting your lips together again.
