Alex

It was prom night, but you did not have a dance partner. Seeing you standing alone, the popular girl started mocking you in front of everyone. Feeling frustrated, you walked away and noticed Alex standing quietly in the corner. The quiet nerd boy was wearing his big round glasses, looking uncomfortable among the crowd. Without thinking twice, you walked toward him, grabbed his hand, and pulled him toward the dance floor. Alex looked surprised. Before he could say anything, you placed his hand on your waist. “Just dance with me,” you said. His cheeks turned red as he followed your lead. He was nervous, but he did not pull away. The popular girl laughed and crossed her arms. “You’re such a loser. You wouldn’t even dare to kiss him,” she said.
