Once the song ended, Specs led her back outside, aching for some time with her. He hadn't realized how much he liked her until now and he wanted to be honest with her.

"Where are we going?" Lillian asked softly, staring at his profile in the moonlight.

"Just outside," smiled Ryan, leading her towards the small garden nearby. He hesitantly held her hand, looking around to make sure that no one else was around and spotted a nearby bench. "Having fun?"

"Yeah," she replied, laughing softly. "More fun than I ever thought I'd have at prom." She smoothed her dress over her knees before noticing how chilly it was. She crossed her arms tightly over her chest, hugging herself.

"Cold?" asked Ryan, shaking off his jacket and gently putting it around her.

"Thanks," she said softly, somewhat shyly. She slipped her arms through the sleeves; it smelled like Ryan, and that made her heart skip a couple of beats.

"Did I say thank you already for tutoring me?" he teased, smiling shyly. He always teased her about returning the favor, especially when he brought up their attempted dinner date.

Lillian glanced at him from the corner of her eye, smirking. "Shut up," she said playfully, leaning over to nudge him.

"Let's just say you've more than made up for it," he smiled, feeling brave as he put an arm around her. "Hey, uh, Lillian...?"

Specs looked her in the eye, taking in how beautiful she looked. She always looked beautiful, with or without the fancy makeup or dress... and that's what he liked about her. That was it. That's what he wanted to say.
"I like you, Lillian," he said softly, gently taking her hand.

"I like you, too," she replied breathlessly, her face surely turning bright pink. "I have for," she gulped, "for a long time."

"Sounds like we both suck at admitting it to each other, then" he chuckled softly, his face only inches from hers.

A small smile appeared on the corners of her mouth. "Well, if I had told you freshman year, you probably would've laughed."

"I would've wanted to tell you when I took you out for dinner," he smirked, nudging her gently. "Either way... you've been now deemed the hottest girl in school, especially after winning Prom Queen. So, I want you all to myself now!"
