Prom Night
It all started the day of the prom; I was dressed in my dad's black tux with a blood red tie. I didn't have a partner as I still hadn't come "out of the closet" as most people would call it, id been gay since I can remember. Oh by the way, my name's Luke Dali and I'm 5'8, skinny, I have shoulder length black hair with my fringe over my right eye.
As I walked into the massive school hall there were people everywhere dressed in black and red, it was like it was a themed prom!
"LUKE!" Jeremy one of my best mates called.
As I walked over to him he was smiling so brightly that my heart melted.
"Hey man, sorry I'm late" I replied
"Dude you're not even late" he chuckled
I had always had a crush on this guy, although he never knew it, he was 5'9, short black hair with a fringe that fell into his right eye, tonight he was dressed in a bright red tux with an onyx tie, of course he was the different one out of all of us.
As the music started playing it was one of my favourite songs, "knives and pens" by Black Veil Brides.
"OMG I LOVE THIS SONG" I squealed
Jeremy chucked "I know I asked them to play it for you"
I was amazed at how well he actually knew me, I smiled and thanked him. As the music played I started singing and head banging. As everyone else around me was watching, Jeremy smiled and joined in. when the song came to a close I was breathing hard and my throat ached from screaming, everyone clapped and cheered as Jeremy and I looked up, laughing we bowed and then we collapsed in our chairs.
"Jer I had no idea you could scream like that" I said astounded
"It was nothing, your way better than me" he replied still breathing hard
I blushed bright scarlet and looked away; I didn't want him to see the effect he had on me. He was close to me and I could feel his body heat, I licked my lips.
I looked in his eyes and whispered
"Did you want to get out of here?"
He looked up and smiled that heart-stopping smile, and shook his head. I sighed and went back to listening to the band play. What was I thinking, he isn't gay, Why did I ever think he was interested in me? I hated myself and I decided I better leave.
"Hey man, I'm going to go ill catch you on the weekend yeah?" I told Jeremy
Jeremy raised an eyebrow "Oh ok, um yeah okay your place?"
"Yeah 10am mine on Saturday" I replied
I walked out into the night air and breathed it in, I walked home and fell straight into bed closing my eyes and dreamed of Jeremy.
