𝙌𝙪𝙞𝙘𝙠𝙞𝙚-Visions academy had been in quite an uproar lately. Why? Well prom season of course! Love was found in every corner of the halls and there wasn’t a turn you could make without seeing a promposal. Joy was found everywhere, except in one peculiar boy.
Miles Morales, who for the life of him couldn’t find the time to confess!
Your locker door swings shut, only to reveal the Miles Morales.“Gosh you scared me!”
Miles G Morales, notorious for troublemaking and having girls swooned, he was known as your school's, “delinquent”. But really, you knew the truth. Having been chem partners this year you began getting to know him outside of this persona everyone's boxed him into. You learned that he wasn’t trouble, he was just a guy who didn’t take disrespect, and was also very nerdy.
His head tilts down trying to cover his amusement at your reaction, “What’s got you so jumpy?”
“Boy don’t even get me started.” Your body softens letting out a breath you didn't realise you were holding. These past weeks you’d been swarmed with loads of work. As student body president you were tasked with coordinating prom, and with that came way too many responsibilities for a highschooler.
As you began telling Miles all the ups and downs you’ve been dealing with you couldn’t help but notice how attentive he was. Always nodding and maintaining eye contact. Ugh how he made your heart skip
“And yeah that’s that…” You smile now having finally gotten everything off your chest. You then remember Miles had seemed to have something to tell you. “Oh and did you have something you wanted to say? My bad I went on a rant”
In truth Miles could listen to you ‘rant' for hours, but as he was just about to tell you that he remembered what he originally came for.
“Oh yeah— So… yknow prom…” This just had to be one of Miles’s most pathetic encounters. The boy that every girl dreamed of, the guy that no one dared to cross is practically shaking trying to get ‘Y/n the Class President’ to go to prom with him.
“Yeah? What about it.” Your eyes narrow, confused on why he won't just spit it out.
“Hey Y/n!” Right before he was able to finish, one of the student council members comes hopping towards you with several papers in hand. “I really need you to check these out. A lot of the students are complaining about this year's theme and I feel like it could use some…”
Miles shifts awkwardly and slightly annoyed at the interruption.
Almost as if the girl could feel Miles’s glare she realizes what she’s done and quickly retracts. “ Oh excuse me, am I interrupting something…?”
You nod, internally thanking Miles for postponing work. “Yeah but you're good, Miles what were you saying?”
“Yeah uh forget it I’ll talk to you later…” Sliding his hands into his pockets Miles decides that now may not be the best time to talk. Especially with your new found audience.
Miles was not one to give up. Ok one interrupted confession, cool. All he had to do was try again.
After searching Visions Academy for only God knows how long Miles finally spots you in the gym. You seemed to be giving orders on where to place the prom decorations cause the multiple binders in hand and the stern look on your face just had to give it away.
“Seems early to be setting up decor m’?” Miles creeps besides your ear, mid instruction.
“Agh! What did I say about creeping up on me!” Your ears tingle from the sensation as you use one of your binders to hit his shoulder.
“I know but you look so cute all scared.” Your body tenses at the compliment, causing you to turn your back towards him.
“Don’t say stuff like that.. Anyways, why are you here?”
“ I was actually wondering if I could talk to you, in private.”
“Oh for sure– here let me just tell everyone I’ll be out for a minute— hold this.” You place a couple folders in his hand as you go to inform your peers you’ll be stepping out.
The boy watches as you skip towards your peers. He's finally about to get this weight off his chest, and if all goes well you'll be hooked around his arm all prom night. Before Miles is able to further delve into his corny fantasies a shorter girl taps him on the shoulder.
“U- uhm Miles?” Miles freezes at her touch.
“I’ve wanted to tell you this for a really long time-“ No, no this couldn’t be happening. Is he seriously getting a confession right as he’s about to ask you out?!?
The girl continues stammering over her words trying to declare her love, while failing to read the room. Because if she could she would be able to tell his concern was more so for the pretty lady ahead him and not her.
You finally finish rounding up and you turn to head back to Miles. But fore you fully make it you notice the girl next to him. Your eyes soften taking notice at what seems to be a promposal. With his looks, you were shocked he hadn't mentioned getting one all this while. You were sure he had a line of girls who were dying to walk besides Saturday night. So even with you knowing this, why do you feel.. Hurt?
Your gaze catches his and his eyes widen. “Wait-” He hesitates almost like he's been caught.
You offer a reassuring smile as you give him a quick thumbs up along with a wink. And that solidifies to him you've officially gotten the wrong idea.
Eventually Miles ends up breaking away from the unskippable cutscene with a swift apology and a “I dont think im the right guy” (His go too line). Scouting around the gym he spots you again with a group of people. Though right before he's able to get a word in you stop him.
“Miles, could we maybe talk later. This is really important.”
“Ganke c’mon im lost here!” It's two days till prom and Miles still hasn't found time to ask you out. It's like ever since that day you've been increasingly busy or plain avoiding him.
Ganke slips off his headphones but still maintains eye contact with his PC. “What were you saying?”
“You dead haven't been listening to me this whole time?”
“Something about Y/n? You asked her to prom already right?”
“No, that's what I'm trying to say.”
Ganke’s eyes widen at Miles' remark as he spins his chair to lock eyes with his best friend lounging on the top bunk. “Dude prom is in two days?! How y'know she doesn't have a date already?”
Miles’ heart drops to his stomach. What if you do already have a date? Was he too late? Miles groans, squeezing his palms against his face. “Bro I've been trying to get her attention this whole week! It's like some universal force is stopping my game.”
“Dont worry dude i got you. These sortve things require deliberate execution and planning.”
“And what? You're the master of promposals?”
Ganke rolls his eyes at the smart remark “Anyways first things first, what does your sign look like?”
“Yeah… The promposal sign?” The boys maintain eye contact for a good ten seconds before it dawns on them. “YOU DONT HAVE A SIGN?!"
The sun beamed down at Vision Academy’s courtyard. Voices crashed around as everyone was trying to get into the center of the human circle. Prom is tomorrow so who could possibly be proposing now?
“Stupid Ganke…” A curse slips from Miles lips as he nervously toys with his hair. Recalling the events of the night prior Ganke had slammed down on the fact that he lacked a sign. Ridiculing him with phrases like ‘How did you even expect to get her attention.’ ‘Thank god you haven't asked her yet’ ‘You're actually pathetic’ and other words he doesn't care to remember. And so, in the end the two boys spent the whole night creating a sign and putting together gifts.
Miles groans, eyeing the crowd around him. He hated the publicity but Ganke insisted it be public because “Girls dig the attention” or was it something about a power move?.. Well whatever it was it had Miles twitching. His heartbeat quickened taking in what was actually about to happen. The lego flowers he spent an half an hour putting together because you once rambled about how their so much more thoughtful and lasting than regular ones, rolled against his palms as he fidgeted. Where were you? Did your friends forget? Did you already know and that's why you were avoiding him? Or was–
Right as his thoughts were about to consume him you stepped through the crowd. For a second you were so confused. Your lips pressed tightly together and your brows furrowed as you examined the area for what could possibly be happening. Your eyes spot him first then the sign and it was as if your whole face lit up once you saw it. ‘Be my missing piece and lego to prom”
Miles squirms under your gaze and his eyes dart everywhere but you. “I-i hope it's not too late”
“I got you this too.” You watch as his trembling hands reach out to reveal the most beautiful thing you had ever seen.
The flowers were gorgeous, they were your favorite ones and looked to be so intricately designed. So much so that you hadn't even known Lego sold them. Your breathing stops at the masterpiece in your hands “Miles, are these legos! I didn't even know they sold these?” You stare in awe at the bundle in front of you before catching the scent of something floral. “No you did not. Are these scented?”
The brownskins lips quiver as he scratches the back of his neck. “You were talking about how you liked legos more than actual flowers but you adore the customization and the scent of real ones so I made them myself.” Miles cringes at the small ramble he went on and finally looks in your direction. Your eyes are glazed as you stare back and forth from the sign to the flowers and finally to him.
You shift to place a small peck on his cheek then throw your arms around him placing your head in the crook of his neck. “You're so annoying. Of course I'll go with you.”
The crowd erupts in cheers at the acceptance and something in Miles short circuits as he's left stunned by your reaction.
