Chapter 25

It's Friday night.

Aka the homecoming dance is here.

Finally.

Charlotte and I are getting ready at her house, We'll I'm getting ready while Charlotte keeps telling me horrible pickup lines.

I'm in the middle of applying liquid eyeliner when Charlotte rolls over on her bed so that she can give me a confused facial expression.

I put the applicator down as I look up from my spot on the floor to face my adorable girlfriend.

"What?" I ask her as I furrow my eyebrows "I was thinking," she starts off seriously which causes me to stiffen nervously "Aside from being incredibly sexy, what do you do for a living?" She finishes as a smirk makes its way onto her gorgeous face I roll my eyes at her as I allow a hidden smile to break out onto my face.

"Charlotte, stop telling me pickup lines" I say as I begin to apply eyeliner on my other eye I actually don't really mind her telling me these pickup lines.

I just don't want to arrive at school looking like a tomato.

"Okay, fine," she says with a nod but I have a feeling that she's about to tell me another one "Something must be wrong with my eyes because I can't take them off of you" she says which causes me to blush as I pretend to ignore her I see her pout out of the corner of my eye.

"Babe" she calls out but I just continue to apply my make up She calls my name again only to receive no response.

I hear her begin to slowly make her way off of her bed and down onto the floor where I'm sitting crisscrossed. I look up at her through the mirror and receive a small smile as she sits down behind me.

I blush as I feel her pelvic region brush against my lower back. I don't feel any better when she brings her arms around my body to rest on my thighs.

She's doing this on purpose.

She has to be.

I take a break from doing my make up since all I have to do now is apply lipstick.

I am somehow able to turn around in Charlotte's arms so that I'm straddling her thighs. She smiles at this as she wraps her arms around my lower back.

"Happy now?" I tease as I wrap my arms around her neck "Very" she replies as her eyes drift down to my exposed cleavage She looks thoroughly surprised as she continues to observe them.

"You're such a perv" I say to her as I roll my eyes but I can't help but smile "Babe, the last time I saw these were when we were thirteen or fourteen," Charlotte replies as she lays her back flat against the floor, taking me down with her "And I must say that you've grown a lot since then" she replies which causes me to roll my eyes as I sit up so that my butt is pressed against her pelvis "If you can guess what my bra size is, I'll give you a reward" I offer her as I notice her eye color shift slightly Her eyes flicker up and down as she contemplates my offer.

"Can I touch them?" She questions with a slightly deeper tone of voice which takes me by surprise I feel a shiver go up my spine as she sits up and give me a predatory gaze.

It's not one of those gazes that gives off creepy vibes.

Hers actually makes me feel hot all over.

I result for nodding my head since I do not trust my voice at the moment.

She begins to slowly trail her fingertips up my sides with the lightest touch I have ever felt. As she makes her way to the front of my body, she trails her fingertips back down until they reach the waistband of my shorts.

I gasp as her cold hands expertly slide up my tight-fitting tank top.

"Are you okay?" She asks with genuine worry as she immediately stops all hand movements I nod as I hold my breath.

"I'm okay, your hands are just really cold" I say She nods her head understandingly as her hands continue to rest underneath my shirt.

"Do you want me to stop?" She asks calmly "No" I reply honestly I begin to nervously fumble with the bottom of my fitted tank top, noticing that she's about to object I just think 'screw it' before pulling it off of my body.

I don't miss the way that my breasts practically bounce out of my tank top, and judging by Charlotte's eyes neither does she.

Whatever she was going to say next gets stuck in her throat as her eyes remain glued to my voluptuous breasts.

She doesn't hold back as her hands slowly glide up my body before resting firmly underneath my breasts.

"Fuck" I hear her whisper to herself as she begins to play with them If I didn't know any better, I would've assumed that she forgot all about the bet from earlier.

I try my best to look into her eyes only to blush and bite my bottom lip when I get a glimpse of them.

Her pupils are significantly dilated and her eyes seem to be a forest green type of shade.

I am distracted from my thoughts as I suddenly release a strangled moan. Charlotte lightly runs her thumbs over my hardened nipples causing me to release another moan of pleasure.

"You're so sensitive" Charlotte mutters, more-so to herself, as she begins to play with my pink hardened buds "It's not my fault" I whisper back as one of her hands roughly grab my breast She hums appreciatively as she notices my breasts spillage from her hand. The humorous part is that she has big hands, well they're bigger than mine, who knows maybe I just have small hands.

She smirks as she looks up at me, making sure to keep her hand on my breast.

"Thirty-eight-D" She says if it's nothing My eyes widen as I stare at her in shock.

"How did you-?" I question with genuine shock She shrugs as she begins to slowly make her way down towards my ass.

"I just paid attention to the fact that my boobs are slightly smaller than yours" she says with a smirk as she effortlessly slips her hands down into my shorts I give her a questioning look.

That doesn't explain how she got the number correct.

"I am a thirty-eight-C, so I just assumed that since you're slightly bigger than me you must be a thirty-eight-D" she explains further I nod my head at her explanation.

"Well, since you got it shockingly correct, I'll reward you after the dance" I say with a smug smirk as I get up off of her and make my way into her closet "Really, Aspen?" She calls after me with obvious sadness which causes me to laugh While, yes, I want to be with her sexually, I can't deny the fact that it is so much fun to tease her.

-

"You never fail to amaze me" I say as Charlotte comes out of the bathroom looking like a completely different person She's wearing a long red dress that appears to have a slit going down the side of it, starting above her knee. She paired that with a pair of gold stilettos.

Her long blonde hair is expertly styled in a simple middle part that goes down into a low ponytail.

She smiles at my declaration as she grabs my hand and pulls me up from her bed.

I smile back as she interlocks our fingers together.

"I could say the same thing about you, babe" she responds as she blatantly checks me out causing me to blush nervously I'm wearing a short, tight fitting black dress that has spaghetti straps. I paired it with a pair of black stilettos.

My hair is somehow decently styled so that I have a voluminous half up, half down on top of my head.

"Girls, the dance is starting soon" I head Charlotte's mother yell from downstairs I smile brightly as Charlotte begins to blush with embarrassment.

"I think that we should go downstairs" she suggests as I lightly chuckle at her "I think that you're right" I says as I begin to lead us out of her bedroom I hope that I do not completely hate this dance.

That would be a bad ending to an incredible week.

As Charlotte and I descend the stairs I don't miss the familiar gasps from our families.

I happen to look up and notice that Knox and Katie are also here.

Oh, this is going to be good.

"Charlotte, Aspen, I'm so happy for the both of you" Charlotte's mom begins as we stop at the bottom of the stairs I don't miss the slight shake in her voice as I smile appreciatively at her.

"Yes, you girls have overcome so many obstacles that stood in your way, it's almost hard to believe that you both are only seventeen" my mother finishes "Mom, please don't cry, it's not even prom" I say matter of fatly She waves me off as Katie walks up to Charlotte and I.

"I absolutely love your dresses" she says with genuine interest I smile at her as I notice her eyes linger on my dress longer than they linger on Charlotte's.

"How about I let you borrow it, when you're my age of course" I say "You're kidding?!" Katie shrieks as she looks up at me I shake my head as my smile never falters. She goes crazy at this as she does a happy dance before scurrying off somewhere.

I feel a set of eyes on me so I glance over at Knox only to notice him checking out my backside.

"Knox!" Charlotte's mom shrieks with a terrified tone of voice as she notices Knox checking me out Knox looks up at me before blushing as walking away from us.

I laugh as Charlotte tightens her grip on my hand possessively.

I was right.

This was a very entertaining conversation.

-

The homecoming dance has been a wonderful experience so far.

Charlotte and I have dance to all of the requested songs, most of which were sexual.

All in all, we were having a great time.

Our school does not have a snack table of any sort, though they are selling cold water for five dollars.

"Do you want to go to the photo booth?" I say into Charlotte's ear since it is extremely hard to hear in here As I pull away, I see her nod her head which makes me laugh as we make our way towards the empty photo booth.

When we arrive to the photo booth Charlotte and I decide to look through the prop table only to go in empty handed.

The photo booth was smaller than an average photo booth, this one could probably fit two tiny people at most.

Charlotte is the first to sit down before gently pulling me down onto her lap. I shriek as I fall down only to plot onto her lap.

"Babe, don't do that" I say breathlessly as I feel my heart going crazy in my chest Jesus Christ.

What if I missed her lap and fell on the floor?

"Calm down," she says gently as her thumb gently rubs along my clothed hip "I'll always catch you, baby girl" she says with a slightly lower tone of voice as the woman outside of the booth asks us if we're ready "Uh- Yeah" I answer the woman as I feel a stirring in my lower stomach from Charlotte's tone "Just look into the camera and smile, there's a three second timer" the lady responds tiredly I don't blame her.

I would be tired too if I had to say that to the hundreds of kids that came too this booth every couple of seconds.

She presses the start button before a three second countdown begins to go off.

I end up giving the camera a closed lip smile as I hold onto Charlotte's shoulders.

A bright flash goes off before showing us the photo.

"That's cute" I comment with a small smile "Funny one next?" She asks I nod my head as the countdown begins again.

Charlotte and I make goofy faces at the camera as a flash goes off, blinding us momentarily.

Two more photos.

The countdown begins again which makes me slightly freak out since I have no idea what pose to do next. I end up smiling at the camera again as Charlotte places a kiss on my cheek.

After the flash goes off, I turn to face my beautiful girlfriend who is looking up at me with innocent eyes.

Bullshit.

This girl is anything but innocent.

I smile down at her as I place my hand on her the side of her face and lean in so that I can kiss her tempting pink lips.

I don't miss the distant flash of the camera which causes me to laugh as I pull away from her.

"I think that I ruined the last photo" I say I notice that my lipstick messily transferred onto her lips making me smile wider as I rub my lips together.

"Doesn't matter, I'll automatically like them all anyway since you're in them" I smile at her sweet declaration "I love you" I state as I place another kiss onto her lips "I love you too" she replies back as I pull away from her As we exit the booth, I decide to tell her about the lipstick on her lips.

"Babe," I say as she meets me outside of the photo booth "I may have accidentally gotten lipstick on your lips" I say nonchalantly as I grab our photos from the metal cartridge "Aspen," she groans out frustratedly "Red lipstick stains" she says as she opens her purse and grabs a mirror She quickly wipes the lipstick off of her lips as the principal walks onto stage.

"Hello, can I get everyone's attention?" He questions politely as the students begin to quiet down I quickly grab Charlotte's free hand as she places her mirror back inside of her bag and drag us towards the stage.

"As you all may know by now, the multitalented celebrity Bellisa goes to our school," he starts off but pauses as the crowd erupts into applause, accompanied by a few screams "As I was saying, she graciously agreed to sing the slow song to you guys tonight," he announces as a teacher hands Charlotte a microphone Avery walks up to us just as everyone erupts into applause again which makes me smile.

Charlotte deserves all the support that she gets.

At least I believe that she does.

"Without further ado, I welcome Miss Bellisa onto stage" he says as he begins to clap with the crowd Charlotte smiles as she slowly releases my hand and walks up onto stage. She waves to the crowd as she makes her way towards where the principal previously stood.

"How are you guys doing tonight?" She says into her microphone as her eyes study the crowd of students She gets a mixed answer of emotions, most of which being 'good' and 'tired'.

"I hope you people that are tired feel better," she says sweetly "Tonight, I'm going to be singing you guys a personal favorite song of mine, perfect by Ed Sheeran" she says as her eyes look over to me and hold eye contact She's trying to tell me something.

I just can't tell what she's trying to tell me.

The music begins to play as Charlotte gulps down a breath of air.

"Listen closely to the lyrics, Aspen" Avery says to me before walking away from me "I found a love for me, Darling just dive right in, And follow my lead, Well, I found a girl beautiful and sweet, I never knew you were the someone waiting for me, Cause we were just kids when we fell in love, Not knowing what it was, I will not give you up this time, But darling, just kiss me slow, Your heart is all I own, And in your eyes, you're holding mine, Baby, I'm dancing in the dark, With you between my arms, Barefoot on the grass, listening to our favorite song, When you said you looked a mess?

I whispered underneath my breath But you heard it, Darling, you look perfect tonight"

Charlotte sings steadily all the while staring deep into my eyes Oh, my goodness.

She's singing.... to me?

'I love you' she mouths to me 'I love you more' I whisper back with a big smile.
