music was blasting past the door of the staircase - prom happening right next to you as you sat on the steps.

the place was colder than the gym, and you weren’t in the best mood since your date stood you up.

so, you chose to hide rather than face prom night alone - until the door to the staircase shoved open and your enemy, henry, sat down on the same step as you.

he jumped a little when he noticed you, a silence settling between the two as the door latched shut.

“you’ve gotta be kidding me…” he hisses under his breath, hiding his face in his hands as he lets out a long sigh.
