It's prom night and I am lonely

Leo Valdez was the quiet kid who just sat in the back of the class tinkering with whatever's in his hand. He never talked to anybody, and nobody talked to him because well? It was social suicide to be seen sitting with that loser. He seemed fine with it.

Lo and behold she's walkin over to me

That's the reason nobody expected him to come to prom this year. But here he is and he looks drop dead handsome. He's wearing a nice suit, his hair is car-oil free (first time?) and his hands are shoved in his pockets. Despite his nice clothing, he's wearing the same beat up red Converses'. You glance down at your wrist, corsage-free. Your date, (Jason Grace, the star of the football team) ditched you to go dance with Piper McLean. You suck in a breath and walk over to Leo, who's sitting on the steps outside the gym. Part of your reason is that he looked bored and lonely and the other is, well . . . you were bored and lonely.

How does she know who I am?

You sit down next to him, not saying anything. He glances at you, obviously confused. You can practically see the gears turning in his head. You explain how he looked lonely so you came over to talk to him. He nods and speaks: "I thought you came with Jason."

And why does she give a damn about me?
