There she was. Harmony Pearce. The most beautiful girl he'd ever seen. Jeff had been preparing for this moment. He'd been going through it in his head over and over again. He was just going to walk up to her, and ask her out for ice cream. Girls liked ice cream, right? Hell, everyone liked ice cream.

Harmony was on stage, dancing and performing her routine, though this was just a practice run, a practice run Jeff was privileged enough to witness. His breath caught in his throat as she belted the lyrics, his eyes transfixed on her, the way she moved, she way she performed. As the song ended, he knew this was the moment.

Now or never.

If only Jeff had been a little less nervous and a lot less clumsy. He started making his way over to her, his foot catching on a wire and he yelped as he fell into her, a shriek escaping the brunette's lips. It all happened so quickly and suddenly he found himself lying on top of her, their lips brushing together without him even realising it.

Jeff's eyes went wide, a blush rising to his cheeks as he stammered, "I..I-I.. I didn't.. I m-mean, I--"

"Jeff." Harmony's soft voice cut him off.

"Yes?"

Their lips brushed together, and Jeff could feel her smiling into the kiss. A moment passed before the girl beneath him pulled away, still smiling, "You talk too much."

I'm going to miss you so much

I'll miss you, too.

[ask--jeffsterling-blog]

I wonder how many guys she'll flirt with while you're gone

I trust her.

[ask--jeffsterling-blog]

You were right, she is a tease

In a good way.

[ask--jeffsterling-blog]

Jeffery Sterling, you take that back. I am not a tease

You so are.

[ask--jeffsterling-blog]

Where are you going?

I was thinking I might spend the weekend with you...if you wanted.

Harmony pushes the door open to Warbler's Hall, looks around

Jeff: *snickers as he throws the water without looking, his eyes going wide as he realises who it is* Oh. God.

Harmony: -blinks in confusion at him, small voice- ...Jeff?

Jeff: H-Harmony...I thought...I thought you were coming tomorrow. *bites lip nervously*

Harmony: I-I wanted to surprise-e you -puts head in hands, shoulders start to shake-

Jeff: No, no, no, no, don't cry. That's worse than the screaming. *Hesitantly reaches out for her, wrapping an arm around her waist, and pulling her down the halls* Come on, we'll get you dry.

Harmony: Is-s this because I scream-med at you in elementary school-l? -tears start down her face-

Jeff: No! No, I thought you were someone else. I swear I'd never do something like that on purpose. *pulls her to the bathrooms, grabbing a towel from the racks, and gently rubbing it through her hair* I'm so, so sorry.

Harmony: -small sobs- I-I forgive-e you-u...

Jeff: Hey... *hesitantly pulls her into a hug, speaking softly* I never want you to cry...

Harmony: -wraps arms around his back- I...water-r just freaks me out when there's a lot of it-t

Jeff: I'm so sorry. It was just a prank. I was hoping to get Thad. *kisses the top of her head* I didn't mean to scare you.

Harmony: It's okay-y -starts to calm down-

Jeff: Are you okay?

Harmony: I will be yeah-h

Jeff: I think I'm just destined to always do stupid things around you. *chuckles nervously*

Harmony: -small giggle- It was an accident

Jeff: There have been a lot of accidents. I can't believe how awkward I am.

Harmony: -smiles up at him- It's endearing

Jeff: *laughs* It's embarrassing.

Harmony: -stands on tiptoes, kisses his cheek-

Jeff: *blushes* What was that for?

Harmony: I felt like it

Jeff: I hope you feel like it more often. *looks away, clearing his throat* I uh, um...y-you better now? I'm still really sorry.

Harmony light blush

Harmony: I'll be okay Jeff.. -hugs him again-

Jeff: *stays close, looking into her eyes, and speaking softly* I thought you weren't coming to see me 'till tomorrow.

Harmony: I wanted to surprise you. Plus I didn't really anything else to do -smiles slightly-

Jeff: Well...you are full of surprises.

Harmony: -smiles- why thank you good sir

Jeff: *kisses her cheek* I still can't believe you're even talking to me after all these years.

Harmony: -blushes- It was years ago, I'd have to be a pretty bitter person to hold a grudge for that long over something small

Jeff: We never really spoke, though. I was too scared. *smiles sheepishly*

Harmony: Are you scared now?

Jeff: *bites lip* A little.

Harmony: Oh...-looks disappointed for a second before it disappears- I'm sorry..

Jeff: No, I didn't...I really liked you back then, okay? And I was scared I'd mess things up by saying the wrong thing.

Harmony: -blushes- You liked me? -ducks head to hide smile-

Jeff: Are you kidding? Of course I liked you. People were crazy not to.

Harmony: -blinks- No, I was the crazy one

Jeff: *smirks* And I liked that.

Harmony: -blushes darker- You must have been the only one

Jeff: Oh, come on. *brushes a hand against her cheek* You know you're amazing.

Harmony: Oh I know I'm amazing. The other kids just didn't

Jeff: *laughs softly* Well, they were crazy not to. I liked you a lot. And then I went and messed it up.

Harmony: I'm sorry for screaming at you that day in the hallway

Jeff: I'm sorry for knocking you over.

Harmony: It's okay

Jeff: Have I totally screwed everything up? *bites lip*

Harmony: -inward smile- I don't know... -kisses cheek again- Do you think you have?

Jeff: Well, let's see. I ran into you, ran away from you, and then I soaked you in water. So far, I'd say it's amazing you haven't hit me yet.

Harmony: -giggles- I have 3 older brothers, no need for me to get my hands dirty. -squeezes his hand- They were accidents

Jeff: Just don't scream at me again if I make another mistake because that was probably the scariest thing that's ever happened to me.

Harmony: Deal

Jeff: *leans closer, brushing their noses together, and speaking softly* You're still as amazing as ever.

Harmony: -blushes madly- Thank you

Jeff: *stays close, speaking under his breath* I'm still worried I'm going to scare you away.

Harmony: -softly- You shouldn't be... -holds his hand gently-

Jeff: *catches her lips with his in a delicate kiss, gently squeezing her hand*

Harmony: -blushes to her hair, softly- what was that for -a little breathless-

Jeff: *small smile* I felt like it.

Harmony: -smiles back- I liked it

Jeff: I like you. Even after all this time...

Harmony: I like you too.

Jeff: ...Really?

Harmony: -nods- Really

Jeff: Well...I...uh...wh-what does that mean? *chuckles nervously*

Harmony: -softly- what do you want it to mean?

Jeff: I thought I was kind of making that obvious. *laughs softly*

Harmony: -leans forward and kisses him lightly-

Jeff: *pulls her closer, resting their heads together* Okay. I'll take that as a good sign.

Harmony: I hope so, that was the way it was meant to be

Jeff: Okay. I'm going to...go out on a limb here... Will you...be my girlfriend? And before you answer, I'd like to remind you that I'm Batman, and as my girlfriend, you'd get free rides in the Bat-mobile whenever you want. *Smiles sheepishly*

Harmony: -pretends to think- Well it might just be because of the bat-mobile but yes -sticks out tongue teasingly-

Jeff: Knew it. Chicks dig the car. *smirks*

Harmony: -winks- well duh..it's the bat-mobile

Jeff: *laughs* Well, I don't let just anyone in it.

Harmony: I am honored monsieour

Jeff: As you should be. *brushes a hand through her damp her* Come on. I have to get you out of here before someone sees you.

Harmony: -small sneeze- Yeah, I gotta get home and change before I get sick.

Jeff: I'm so sorry about that. Really. There's a back way we can go where you won't get caught.

Harmony: Alright, lead the way?

Jeff: *wraps an arm around her waist* Follow me. *grins, pulling her out of the bathrooms, and down the hall*

Harmony: -looks around in awe- This place is incredible

Jeff: It is? I guess I'm kind of used to it.

Harmony: I think it is -spots the door- Is this where we're going?

Jeff: Yep. If you go out this way, no one will know. *winks*

Harmony: -kisses his cheek again- I'll text you?

Jeff: *grins* You better.

Harmony: -giggles- See you later -pushes door open, walks out-

..did you really think it was wrong?

Harmony... That's not what I meant. Of course I didn't think it was wrong.
