Time flew by, Chris and I went in to get tuxedo's for prom, he and I in matching tuxes, we made a very handsome couple. I bought us each a corsage for our lapels, we matched perfectly, I was pretty sure Chris was more excited than I was.
He and I drove over, we parked then kissed in the car, I got out and opened my man's door, he and I walked in hand in hand. People were snapping pics of us, we found our table and I got us drinks, there was a lesbian couple who joined us, then another gay couple who were supposed to be seated at another table but came and sat at ours.
Chris and I danced the night away, the six of us at our table all danced a nice slow song with our partners. As the night wore on, more and more of them got more comfortable with all of us, they announced the people up for prom King and Queen.
No Chris and I were not nominated, but it would have been nice to be, they picked the high school head cheerleader, and the quarterback from the football team. They went up on stage and got their crowns, they looked at each other and shook their heads in agreement.
Carol the head cheerleader went to the microphone to say something.
"Both Rob and I agree this honor should not be ours tonight, this should be for Billy and Chris, they deserve this for being so brave and making it okay to be yourself in our school. Get up here Chris and Billy."
Carol took off her crown and placed it on Chris's head, Rob crowned me with his, we shook hands and Rob ended up hugging both Chris and I. Chris of course was in tears, he and I were to dance the first song alone.
We got in the middle of the floor, I leaned in and kissed him, a nice long sensual kiss, almost all of them applauded.
