#winterformal

Lexi howard x reader

The formal was shit, you just sat at the table with the girls, talking and waiting for something to happen. You really wanted to dance, but the only person you wanted to dance with was sitting on the other side of the table, sipping alcohol and because of that, you were too. One difference tho, you were used to alcohol and Lexi was NOT. She was really tipsy (you were too) and it was freaking adorable. A big portion of the guests at the formal was leaving and you really wanted too as well but you didn’t want to leave Lexi alone like this. Maddy, Kat and Cassie were nowhere to be seen and Rue and Jules were just way too busy with each other right now. 

‘’I wanna go’’ Lexi blurred out. 

‘’do you want me to take you home Lex?’’ you asked her 

‘’no, I don’t wanna go home right now’’ she said as she shood up from her chair and walked towards the exit. 

‘’Lexi Wait up!” you shouted after her, quickly grabbing your stuff and saying goodbye to what was left of your friends. 

You ran outside and looked around for Lexi. There she was, leaning against your car with a big smile on her face. 

‘’can you go to your place Y/N’’ she practically yelled across the half empty parking lot. 

‘’ehm I don’t know Lex’’ you told her when you stood closer to her ‘’it’s pretty late, I probably should just take you home’’ 

‘’aww common… I don’t wanna go home yet Y/N” Lexi said with a sad face ‘’Please?’’ 

You looked at her for a second before grabbing your car keys. 

‘’yeah okay, why not’’ you said before walking towards the driver seat. 

Lexi jumped up ‘’iiiiiiiii yes thank you’’ she said before giving you a kiss on the cheek and walking around to the passenger seat. 

You stood there in shock for a moment while touching your cheek and not being able to stop yourself from smiling. 

‘’are you gonna get in or what’’ Lexi said to you through the open car window. 

You shook your head and got into your car. 

The drive to your house was quiet, you had put on some music and Lexi was looking out of the window. You pulled into your driveway to park the car, you noticed your parents car already was gone so that meant they had already left for their weekend trip.                                                                      Now you just both sat in your car while you turned off the radio. 

‘’why didn’t you ask me to dance with you tonight?’’ Lexi suddenly asked, breaking the silence. 

You were a bit overwhelmed by her question because you did in fact really wanted to dance with her but you just didn’t have the guts to ask her in front of all your friends in fear of rejection. 

‘’eh I don’t know’’ you said before taking a long pause ‘’I wanted to ask you tho’’ 

‘’really?’’ 

‘’yes ofc” 

‘’then why didn’t you?’’ Lexi asked you, now looking at you instead of the window. 

‘’i just didn’t think you would say yes’’ you answered a little more soft than your usual confident and flirtatious self. 

‘’of course I would have said yes’’ she took a deep breath. ‘’I think anyone would say yes if someone as cute as you asked them to dance’’ Lexi said, quickly looking away. 

You took a couple of seconds to process that what Lexi had said. 

‘’but I don’t want to dance with anyone’’ Lexi now turned back to look at you ‘’you are the only one I want to dance with Lex’’ 

‘’really?’’ she asked softly, looking directly into your eyes. 

‘’really’’  

And before Lexi could process or even react you what you had said you leaned forward, slowly so you wouldn’t scare her away. But Lexi didn’t move, your left hand grabbed hers and your right moved towards her cheek, cupping it and looking into her brown eyes. 

‘’is this okay?’’ you almost whispered to her. 

‘’yes, this is very much okay’’ Lexi answered smiling at you. 

You wasted no time after that answer and moved your head towards hers. The kiss was soft but magical. You pulled away, both smiling to each other before going in for another kiss, a lot longer and deeper than the first one. 

‘’shall we go inside?’’ Lexi asked after pulling away. 

‘’ah yes of course’’ you giggled. 

You gave her a quick kiss before stepping out of your car. 

‘’do you want to dance with me’’ you asked her while standing in front of your door. 

‘’haha yes I would love to’’ she answered. 

‘’well come on then!’’ you said before grabbing her hand and pulling her inside.
