One year later

"Alex, John is here!" Martha called. He ran to the living room where Martha had called from and saw John standing there in his suit with his hair in a bun. Alex was dressed the same but with his hair pulled back into a ponytail. Alex smiled and ran up and hugged him.

"Hey Babygirl." John greeted and kissed the top of Alex's head.

"Joooohn. Not in front of Martha and George." Alex protested.

"Oh hush." Martha said. "It's adorable. Now c'mon, I need some pictures."

The two turned to face Martha as she got her phone out to take some pictures. She started counting and as soon as she said three John turned and kissed the side of Alex's head, making him blush.

"This is the greatest picture I've ever taken." Martha said. Alex's face was still red.

"Alright, well we should probably head out." John said, stifling a laugh.

"Yeah, you two get on with it. I'll see you two later."

When they walked inside, everything was in full swing. They quickly found everyone near the food. Peggy, much like last time, was stuffing her face. They didn't get to say much before John was pulling Alex out onto the dance floor.

"John! Why are we dancing? We were still talking to them."

"Well, last year wasn't that great, so I wanted to make it up this year. If that means we sadly have to ditch our friends for a bit, so be it. We see them practically everyday already."

Alex laughed but went along, wrapping his arms around John's waist. Since neither one if them could really dance, they opted to just sway to the music. Alex had closed his eyes and leaned his head on John's shoulder, his face buried into his neck while John set his head on top of Alex's and held him close. It seemed to be just the two of them swaying peacefully until Peggy ran up.

"Hey, lovebirds, we gotta go vote for Homecoming King and Queen."

"Do we have to?" Alex mumbled.

Peggy just rolled her eyes and grabbed their arms to drag them off of the dance floor. They headed over to the table where there was already a small crowd who were voting. The three of them voted before Peggy dragged them off again to the food.

"Don't think you can get away that easily." She said grinning as she pulled them back over to the whole group. As they rejoined everyone, Eliza looked up.

"Hey guys! Did Peggy drag you over here?"

"Yep." Alex told her. Eliza sighed and looked at Peggy.

"Let the boys have some time to themselves. We'll see them later!"

"Fine," Peggy replied, pouting. John mouthed 'Thanks!' and dragged Alex back out to the dance floor.

"Where were we?" John asked, grinning as he wrapped his arms around Alex again. Alex laughed, tilting his head up to kiss him.

"So who do you think is going to win Homecoming King and Queen?" He asked after he pulled away.

"No clue. They should be announcing it in a bit, though."

Alex nodded and leaned his head back onto John's shoulder. Both of them had to admit that this year's prom was a lot better than the previous year. Niether one could understand how they managed to end up with each other. But the more they thought about it, the more they realized that it didn't have to make sense. And they were fine that way.

"Ladies and gentlemen, if I could have your attention please. We are now going to announce Homecoming King and Queen! If your name is called, please join us up front to be crowned." A voice announced. The music was stopped and everyone turned their attention to the front. Several girls were squeezing their friends hands as the guy at the front took his place to announce who won.

"Your 2018 Homecoming King and Queen are Elizabeth Schuyler and Marquis de Lafayette!"

Their entire friend group screamed in excitement and cheered as the two of them headed to the front where the guy gave them both their crowns. Eliza turned around and was visibly freaking out. Lafayette was just trying to get the crown to stay on his head because of his hair.

After everything calmed down a bit the music started up and people started dancing again. John glanced around until he found Eliza.

"I'll be right back. Just stay here." He told Alex.

He made his way through the crowd to where Eliza was talking with Angelica and Peggy.

"Hey John!"

"Hey Liza. Congrats by the way."

"Thanks. I had absolutely no idea that this was going to happen."

"Please," Peggy cut in, "literally everyone knew it was going to be you."

"Anyways, I was wondering if I could borrow the crown for a moment."

"Why?"

"Do I need a reason? I'll give it back."

"You better," she said as she took it off. "I plan on keeping it."

He thanked her and headed back to Alex, coming up behind him and hugging him, making Alex jump.

"John! Oh my God, never do that again."

"Sorry," he apologized, chuckling a bit as he situated the crown on Alex's head.

"Did you steal Eliza's crown?"

"No, I borrowed it so I could crown you the princess."

"John, there isn't even a princess that they vote for."

"That just makes it much easier to crown you." He wrapped his arms around Alex and quickly spun them, catching Alex off guard and making him squeak. John laughed and set him down.

"Well, I'm definitely not a princess," Alex said, fixing the crown.

"You're my princess, so it still counts."

Alex buried his face into John's chest to hide his blush. John ran a hand through his curls before tilting his face up. Alex smiled.

"I love you.

"I love you, too, Princess."
