I run back to my room as fast as my feet can carry me. I hear Newt calling after me but I ignore him. I messed things up big time.
"(Y/N) what was that?" Teresa asks.
She had followed me back.
"I kissed him. And I messed up everything." I say. I start crying.
Teresa sits next to me on my bed and pulls me into her arms.
"I know Newt. He likes you too. You just caught him off guard." She says.
I was grateful for having a friend like her here.
I ignore Newt the rest of the week. I can't look at him without being reminded of what I did. Teresa tells me he misses me but I just brush it off.
"Tonight's the dance." She says happily.
"I know. I was supposed to go with Newt. He hates me now." I say.
"He doesn't hate you!" She says.
"I just ignored him right before tonight. I'm an awful person. Who does that?" I complain.
There was no way Newt liked me still.
"He still likes you. He talks about you all the time at lunch." She tells me.
"I know it's not true." I sigh.
"But it is! He likes you so much." She says.
"Haha very funny." I say and roll my eyes.
"You're still going. And you have to do my makeup." Se informs me.
"I know." I put my hands up in mock surrender.
"I'm not going to look at you until you have everything on. Then do my makeup." She says.
"Alright." I say and work on my makeup.
I do the whole thing. Foundation and everything. Then I get to my eyes. I can't mess this up.
I smile as I look to see they turned out amazing. I then do my lips while Teresa does everything she can to avoid looking.
She knows what color it was. She asked me two days ago. That's all.
I grab the dress and make sure she isn't peaking. I already had set out my accessories in the bathroom so those were easy.
I slip on the dress and look at myself in the mirror. I feel like a princess.
I carefully add the earrings and necklace before stepping into my heels.

(^^the dress)
I swing the door open and there stands Teresa with her mouth wide open. She's in her dress and she looks amazing.
"You look so good! There's no way Newt can hate you after he sees you in this!" She yells.
"Look at you! You look stunning!" I tell her.
"Makeup time." She says.
I nod and get to work. I wanted to go a little simpler with her. I didn't want to take away the attention from the stunning blue dress she had on.

(^^ Teresa's dress)
"I'll see you in a little bit. Don't leave until you hear a knock on your door." She says.
She just leaves me there.
I just shake my head decide to listen to her.
Five minutes later I hear a knock on my door. So, I open it.
When I do, Newt is standing there in a sleek black suit with a white undershirt and his tie matches my dress.
"How did you know what color my dress was?" I asked him.
He laughs.
"I asked Teresa." He says.
I blush.
"Now, I asked you to the dance. So, I couldn't leave my pretty lady waiting." He says.
"Newt, you didn't have to. You don't hate me?" I ask him.
"I could never hate you (Y/N)." He says.
This makes me blush even harder.
"May I see your wrist?" He asks.
I nod and extend my arm out to him. He takes a few steps forward before slipping a pink and lilac colored corsage onto my wrist.
"Did you make this?" I ask him.
"I had Zart help me." He admits looking down at the ground.
"Newt, thank you." I say.
"Will you do me the honor of going to the dance as my date? Not just friends." He asks.
"Yes!" I yell and hug him.
"We better get going." He says.
We make our way over there with our arms linked together. He opens the door for me like a real gentleman.
"Thank you." I say.
"You're welcome." He says.
We re link arms and walk to the dance floor.
"Newt, I can't dance." I say.
"I can't either. It's alright." He says over the music.
They were just playing the popular songs that everyone knows.
Newt and I danced the night away. He would occasionally twirl me and we would end up laughing together.
"Alright. This is a song for all of you out there with a special someone. We're going to slow it down for the last song of the night." Janson announces from where he stands.
I Can't Help Falling In Love starts playing and I smile.
"May I have this dance?" Newt asks.
"Of course you can." I tell him.
He sets both of his hands on my waist and mine go to his neck as we sway along with the music.
"Have I told you how absolutely breath-taking you look tonight?" He whispers in my ear.
"Thank you, Newt." I tell him. "You look extremely handsome tonight."
"I had to impress a certain girl." He says.
"Oh really now?" I ask.
"Mhmm."
As the song comes to an end we both look into each other's eyes. His eyes were the beautiful brown they always were. The brown eyes I fell in love with.
I watch as his eyes slowly go from my eyes to my lips a few times.
"May I?" He asks.
"Yes." I whisper.
A second after, I feel his warm lips on mine, fitting perfectly against mine.
They move in perfect sync together as he pulls me closer to him. I wrap my arms around his neck even tighter to deepen the kiss.
Eventually we have to pull away.
We both gasp for air.
"I think I love you." Newt says.
"I think I love you too." I tell him.
