real life, social media

-two weeks later-

"lilith mariana! are you home?" peyton yells through the house, alongside harley.

"yeah!" lilith yells back as she curls her hair. peyton and harley enter her room with their dresses in hand.

"grey said he'll be over later so your mom can take pictures." harley informs, taking her makeup out of the little bag she brought over.

"also, ridge and flynn are coming over with their dates." peyton says just as lilith's phone begins ringing. picking it up, she sees nick's name show up on her screen.

"hii." he greets, sitting down on the hotel bed.

"hey." lilith furrows her eyebrows. "where are you?"

"oh." nick thrns and looks at the white room behind him. "we're in la for a little bit."

"okay." lilith continues getting ready with nick on facetime, until she puts her dress on.

peyton_grover oh, how i've dreamed of this day. i feel like a princess.

"hello?" ridge shouts from the front of the house. the three girls enter the living room in their prom dresses, heels clicking on the floor as they walk. "oh wow."

"holy shit." grey voices, walking over to them. "damn, you girls look hotter than where my dad's from."

"hell?" harley asks, making grey nod and the others laugh.

"alright, let's get some pictures of you guys." heather says, taking out her phone. "you guys are so grown up."

"don't be getting emotional, mom." lilith smiles, hugging the sides of ridge and peyton.

there's a knock at the door, and lilith looks at her mom, confused.

"must be the pizza i ordered." heather shrugs. "can you get it, lilith?"

lili walks over to the door, opening it quickly. her heart drops when she sees chris standing at her door with a bouquet of flowers and a corsage.

not even taking a second to think, lilith throws her arms around the boy, hugging him tightly.

"hey, gorgeous." chris whispers into lilith's neck. lilith fights back her emotions, trying so hard not to ruin her makeup.

"how are you even here?" lilith pulls out of the hug, leading him inside.

"nick." chris answers, walking over to heather. "hi, i'm chris."

"i know who you are, honey." heather pulls the boy in for a hug. after getting out of it, chris hands her the bouquet.

"these are for you." chris says, his voice cracking. lilith laughs at his nervousness, so she walks over and grabs a hold of his hand.

heather smiles at the sweet gesture and sets the flowers on the counter.

"let's get some pictures." she orders, causing the teenagers the line up and smile. "1, 2, 3."

-

music can be heard from outside the auditorium, making smiles appear on everyone's faces. there's a balloon arch in front of the doors where they all stop to get their picture taken before entering the prom.

chris is hesitant about going anywhere, not knowing anyone in the area. lilith smiles, taking his hand and leading to the middle of the floor, getting in the crowd and dancing without a care in the world. it takes christopher a second to get comfortable, but once he does, he's having a very fun time.

'yellow' by coldplay starts playing loudly, making the jumping halt as everyone finds a partner to join up with.

lili smiles at chris, pulling him in and laying her head on his chest as he wraps his arms around her waist.

they sway to the melodic slow song, smiling to themselves. chris pulls away from her, and leans down. she looks up to kiss him before he pulls away.

"i have a question." he's able to talk a little more quiet since the song is lower. lilith nods, watching him as they continue dancing. "how are you so beautiful?"

she grins widely, a blush forming on her cheeks. "i don't know. i guess i have my mom the thank for that."

chris nods, agreeing with her.

"are you calling my mom attractive, christopher?" lilith teases, dropping her mouth open in fake betrayal.

"no, no. well, i mean. she's not, not pretty, but she's not hot. i mean-" chris rambles on until lilith presses her lips to his.

"i know. i'm just joking." she smiles at him.

"can i be your boyfriend?" he spits out quickly, before he can put it off again. lilith's face turns to surprise, until it's morphed back to happiness.

"it's about damn time." harley says from behind the two, shocking lilith and chris both. "say yes, stupid."

"i was about to, before you interrupted." lilith turns back to chris. "yes, you can."

chris immediately interlocks his lips with lilith's, a wave of relief passing over him as the thought that she might say no is shut down.
