Charlotte's POV
Today was finally Homecoming. I woke up and looked at my coral colored dress hanging up in my closet.
"Get up! It's Hoco Day!" Becky came into my room and yelled.
"I'm already up, Becks, but thanks."
She nodded and then snatched the curling wand off my dresser. "Oh, can I borrow this?"
I laughed at my best friend. "Of course, I'm straightening my hair anyway."
She shrugged her shoulders and then ran out of the room. I got up and took a shower, even though I knew I'd have to take one later.
Once my shower was over, I started to do my hair, as I knew that was going to take at least an hour to do.
I heard a knock at the door.
"Bayley, can you get that?" I yelled to my roommate.
She sighed and then got up to get the door. "It's Seth."
I dropped my straightener and ran to the door. I didn't know why he was here, as I told him I didn't want him to see me before the dance.
"Char, why are you doing your hair? You look beautiful just the way you are," he asked looking at me.
I looked back at him. "This is the one night that I can get dressed up and do my hair and makeup, just let me."
He rolled his eyes and then gave me a kiss. "Well, I can't wait to see what my Queen looks like when I pick her up at 7."
I smiled as I closed the door. I returned to my hair and then went on to my makeup.
Once 7 rolled around, I was ready for Seth to see me. I had on my short coral dress, it was jeweled at the top, and the bottom was tulle and flared out.
"Char, have fun, and be safe," Bayley told me as I went to let Seth in.
"I still can't believe you're not going," Sasha said, appearing out of the bathroom, putting her other earring in.
Bayley shrugged and then I opened the door to see Seth and Roman.
"Charlotte, you look," he stopped looking for the right word to use. "Roman, what word do I use?"
"I don't know dude, but my girlfriend looks smoking hot," Roman said as grabbed Sasha around the waist to kiss her.
Seth turned his attention back to me. "You looking amazing, that's it's, amazing."
I smiled as he put the corsage he got for me on my wrist. Sasha and Roman had their's done, and now we were ready to go.
"Did Dean seriously not go?" I asked Seth.
"Nah, we couldn't talk Ambrose into it," Roman ended up answering.
"He's still upset about Renee, and he didn't want to go alone," Seth finished up the sentence.
The dance was at 8:30, and was over at 11:30. We stopped at Olive Garden for dinner.
The dinner was really good, and I had actually enjoyed myself. This was my first homecoming since my freshman year, as I didn't go my sophomore or junior year.
"Charlotte, thanks for letting me be your date for tonight," Seth said grabbing my hand.
"It's my pleasure."
"No, seriously, I know that over the years we've had our ups and downs, but we always work through it."
I smiled. "Seth, I love you, and I hope you know that."
He opened his mouth to speak, but Roman came over.
"Guess what, guys? Apparently Dean is going to the dance! AJ said he saw him leaving the dorm with some girl," he said, then stared at us. "Oh, sorry, am I interrupting something?"
We both just smiled and shook our heads. We were surprised at this news, and in my opinion, I was happy Dean was going to his senior Homecoming.
"We have to get going, if we want to get a good parking space and get in the dance as soon as possible," I told them.
We had gotten our pictures before going to Olive Garden, taken by Bayley.
We arrived at the school and then it was time for the dance. The point of the dance was really dumb, but I just wanted to go. It was my senior year, and Seth had asked me.
"Remember what you said earlier at Olive Garden?" Seth asked me as a slow song came on.
I looked at him and then he continued talking. "You know, the part about you loving me?"
I nodded my head and just kept waiting for him to say what he was trying to say.
"I do know that you love me," he stated.
My face dropped, but he couldn't see because it was dark. Was that really all he had to say after I told him I loved him?
"Which is a good thing, because I love you too," he finished and then kissed me.
Dean's POV
Homecoming. The day of the week where everyone would be bringing a date to the dance. I wasn't in the mood for everyone asking about my date.
"Hey, you ready to go?" I asked her as she stepped out in her black sequenced dress.
She smiled and then wrapped her arms around my neck. "Are you sure you want to do this?"
I looked at her. "Yes, sweetheart."
Paige just smiled at that and then gave me a kiss. She was the most perfect girl I swear.
"I'm so glad that you asked me to the dance, after all my friends telling me you weren't going to go."
I shrugged my shoulders. Nikki and Roman had been trying to push us together, and now I knew that they would be happy.
"I wasn't going to go, and I still think these dances are dumb, but with you, I know it'll be better."
She smiled and then we left to go to the dance. I hadn't told Seth or Roman that I was going. So, they both thought that I was still at home.
"So, am I supposed to make Renee jealous?" She asked.
"No, just go as my date, I don't care if she takes another guy, just be my date."
She nodded and then we walked into the dance. I surveyed my surroundings and automatically wanted to go home. This was stupid, just like I remembered.
"Dean, you have to at least stay an hour," Paige said, almost like she could read my mind.
I rolled my eyes and sighed. "Fine, but only because you told me I have to."
We danced and all was well. I was trying to avoid Rollins and Reigns, as I knew they both thought I was at home. I hated lying to them.
"Dean, there you are! We've been looking for you," Roman came over to me, Sasha attached to his hip.
"Wait, you knew I was here?"
He nodded and then Seth joined us. "Ambrose, I knew I'd find you."
I stared at them. Then I looked at Paige, who was looking at me. "How do you guys know I'm here?"
"AJ texted me," Roman finished from earlier.
I found AJ as he walked in with Nattie. I ready didn't care that AJ knew I was going to the dance, but now so much for surprising Roman and Seth.
They walked away after they found out I was here. I looked at Paige, who was just looking at her surroundings.
"Paige, did you run for Homecoming Queen?" I asked the raven haired girl.
She looked up at me with a confused look. "Yes, why?"
"Just curious."
She furrowed her brow and then went off to find some food to eat. The moment she left, I saw Renee walk in with some guy who I didn't know. I was guessing he was new to the school.
Again, I really didn't care. I was here with Paige, and she chose to bring someone else.
"Hey, who is that guy?" I heard Paige ask me as she handed me a cup of soda.
"I have no clue, but he's Renee's date I guess."
She grabbed my hand and led me to a hallway. "You told me that we weren't worrying about her, so why are you?"
"I don't know, I really don't. I think it's just because she broke up with me, and I'm still thinking about it."
We walked back into the dance, and I noticed we were near Renee and her date. Maybe I could find out this guy's name.
"Hey, Paige?"
"Yes, Dean?"
I looked at her before I told her. "Kiss me."
At first she was shocked by my request, but she smiled. She pressed her lips to mine, and I kissed her back.
"Now, why did you want me to kiss you?" She asked once we pulled away.
"Isn't that what boyfriends and girlfriends do?"
"We're not dating," she started. "Or are we?"
"We are," I smirked as I kissed her again.
The music stopped playing and we turned our attention to the stage where The Uso's stood with microphones.
"Welcome to the Uso Penitentiary!" Jimmy yelled and then Jey took over.
"Alright y'all, we came up here to announce your Homecoming King and Queen."
I looked at Seth, who was making out with Charlotte in a corner. I was guessing he wasn't running.
"He's not running," Nikki told me as she appeared next to me.
I let out a sigh of relief. However, Seth had already won Spring Fling King, did he really need another crown?
In his defense, he thought he did.
"Your Homecoming King and Queen are..." Jimmy took the envelope from Jey.
"Dean and Paige!"
I looked at her and she had a smile on her face. We both went up to accept our crowns. The rest of the dance was actually pretty fun.
