10- A dance, a glance

Y/n's P.O.V


Sofia and I hugged as the bartender put our drinks on the counter.
"Ready?" Sof asked as we picked up the glasses.
I sighed.
"Let's do it."
We ordered vodka on coke in shot glasses, weird I know. But Sof says it hits hard. Not that I want to get drunk, but I guess it'll be fun if i do.


No. No. Bad thought. Nobody's getting drunk tonight.


We picked up the glass and gulped down the whole thing at once. Sof and I scrunched our noses. It wasn't that hard because the vodka was mixed with coke but still. I felt the bitterness of the alcohol rise up to my head. Adrenaline rushing through my veins.
"A water please." I asked the bartender.
"You okay?" Sofia asked.
"Mhmm yeah." I lied, partly.


I chugged down the glass of water. I was feeling much better.
"Alright. No more alcohol for you." Sof said.
"I wholeheartedly agree with you." I said.


We walked towards the food table. The table was filled with different types of snacks. Donuts, cake, cookies, pizza, crepés, popcorn, chips and a lot more.
The DJ was playing '7 rings' by Ariana Grande. Sofia and I looked at each other with a smirk. We ran towards the dance floor and started dancing. Heels were not the best things to dance in and I did get blisters but it was worth it.


Tom's P.O.V


Sofia and Y/n were dancing now. Y/n and I took ballet lessons together and she was great at dancing. Haz and I were looking around, both of us holding paper cups in our hands.
"Just ask her to dance, mate." Haz said, snapping me out of my trance.
"Maybe I will." I said, shrugging my shoulders.
"You should."


Harry and Sam were flirting with some of Sofia's friends. Paddy and Natalie were sitting were sitting at a table, talking and looking very cute.
The parents were hanging out at the bar.
"You're right. I'll ask her to dance." I finally said.
I threw the cup in the bin and walked up to the dance floor.
The song that was playing switched to a slower one. "Lover" by Taylor Swift.
I smiled.


"H-hey Y/n. D-do you like, um, wanna d-dance?" I asked.


Y/n's P.O.V


"H-hey Y/n. D-do you like, um, wanna d-dance?" Tom asked as 'Lover' by Taylor Swift came on.


Shit, Y/n. This is it. Shit.


"Um- ye-yes. I'd love to." I replied.
My cheeks started to burn again. I was flustered with dozens of butterflies.


Tom gently took my hand and placed his other one on my waist. I put my free hand on his shoulder. Sofia came up behind Tom, wiggling her eyebrows and smirking. I noticed her mad behaviour but didn't do anything. My parents and Nikki and Dom started to dance as well. Sofia, Haz, Paddy and Natalie also joined us.


I held onto Tom's hand tightly and he pulled me closer to him. We started waltzing around on the floor as the chorus came on.
"You're breath-taking, love." Tom whispered into my ear, leaning into me.


Shit.


I shyly smiled and looked up at him. His eyes had a glint in them. We kept swaying.
I put my head on his chest. I could feel his warm breath against my skin. He kissed my head softly.
I lifted my head and looked at him again. This time his eyes were on my lips. I glanced at his.


Tom slowly leaned in. Our lips were inches away from kissing. My heart was about to come out of my chest. I was breathing heavily. And in the blink of an eye, Tom kissed me. I kissed back, wrapping my arms around his neck and him pulling me closer, both of his arms around my waist. I played with his curls while he cupped my cheeks and kissed me harder.


Well fuck.
