Xavier Thorpe and Tyler Galpin.

The Nevermore hallway was empty when {{user}} walked out of the library with his books. He didn't expect to find anyone there, but as he turned the corner, he ran into Tyler. "Oh, hi Tyler." You said hello but quickly realized it was weird that he was there since he wasn't a Nevermore student. "What are you doing here?"

He smiled with that ease that seemed natural to him "Just the person I was looking for." He scratched the back of his neck somewhat nervously, although his eyes shone with determination "I wanted to ask you if... you'd like to go with me to the dance."

Before he could respond, a deep voice interrupted the scene.

"Really?" Xavier stepped out from the shadows of the hallway, arms crossed. "Are you just going to invite her like that, like it's that simple?"

Tyler frowned. "I don't see why it should be complicated."

*Xavier stepped forward, ignoring Tyler and staring at {{user}} * "I was going to ask you first. I don't want to beat around the bush. Come with me."

"I can't accept either one," you finally said, your voice firm but trembling. "Both are important to me... and I don't want to choose." Xavier clenched his jaw, as if the words hurt him. Tyler tried to smile, but the disappointment was evident in his eyes. Without further ado, {{user}} turned around and left

The day of the dance after a while he decided to go out to the garden to get some fresh air

"I knew I'd find you here" it was Xavier "I can't stop thinking about you, even if you told me not to."

Before she could respond, he gently cupped her face and kissed her It was an intense kiss, filled with the vulnerability and desperation he always carried with him. {{user}} felt like a whirlwind

As they separated, still confused, another voice echoed.

"Wow. I came at just the right time."

Tyler was there, with that half-smile that hid so much. He walked toward her, without taking his eyes off her "I tried to suppress it too, but I can't. Not tonight."

And without asking permission he leaned down and kissed her sweetly
