A/N: Hello, friends! I'm back! But with a different fic in a different fandom! I have been recently binge watching Liv and Maddie, and I regret NOTHING! But be aware. I have not finished season 3 yet, so if you leave a review, don't be telling me what's wrong with my fic because "that's not how it would happen in the show" or "that would never happen" etc. Nobody ever said fanfiction had to be accurate to the show all the time! If it was, then what would be the point? Anyway, the point is, be spoiler-free, please? Do that, and we'll be just fine. Reviews are most definitely welcome! And encouraged! :)
So, the idea for this fic came me when I was in the shower (where some of my best thinking happens, just like everyone else) Anyway, as mentioned before, tons of binge watching of this show has occurred. And I got really excited when I got to the episode when I met Holden! Because I had been waiting for sooo long for there to be a love interest for Liv! And he's so cute! And they're so cute! And they're perfect together!
…. Needless to say, I ship it… like A LOT! So don't be surprised if this is super cheesy and lovey-dovey. Leave it to me to fangirl over a Disney Channel show… Anyway, let's get to the story, yeah?

Chapter One:
The moon and the stars were the only light, and she couldn't have asked for anything better. "This is perfect." she said, smiling.
He returned her smile. "Not yet." he said. He had his arm around her. His eyes, locked on hers, broke away for a moment only to look at her lips, then back to her eyes. "Liv," he said, still looking at her like she was the most precious thing in the world.
"Yeah?" she responded quietly, almost weakly.
"Have I ever told you," he said, leaning closer, "How stunning you look in the moonlight?"
Stunning. The word echoed in her mind. No guy had ever called her stunning before. She kind of liked it. Okay, she REALLY liked it. She started to lean in too, but then she panicked. She stopped him. "Holden." She said. She saw a flicker of worry in his eyes
"What is is? Is something wrong?" She looked down and giggled a bit at how panicked he seemed. He's too cute. She thought. "No," she replied, and giggled some more, this time at how relieved he looked. "Everything is perfect." She could feel her heart pounding at what she was gonna say next. She had never said this to any guy before and she was more than just a little nervous. "Holden," she said again, forcing herself to look back into his eyes. She opened her mouth to say it, but she was scared. Nothing came out. She looked down yet again.
"Liv, what is it?" he asked again. "You know you can tell me any-"
"I love you!" She blurted out, quickly meeting his gaze again. Her heart stopped as soon as the words left her mouth. But a second later, she was glad she said it, because he smiled. Oh, that brilliant smile that can put all the stars to shame! That smile that took all her fears away. She let out a breath that she didn't realize she was holding. "Liv, I.." he paused and looked down, taking her hand in his. He couldn't seem to stop smiling as he looked back up and said, "I love you too." And with that, she couldn't seem to stop her own smile forming on her face. He began to lean in again. She closed her eyes and leaned towards him.
"Liv." a voice said. Wait. That's not right. She thought. Wait, did something just hit her? That's impossible. "Li-iv." It came again. What the-? She thought as the world around her seemed to fade away. "LIV!"
Liv's eyes shot open to see her twin sister, Maddie, sitting on her own bed, getting ready to throw yet another pillow at Liv.
"Maddie?! What are you-" Liv was cut off by the pillow making contact with her face.
"Maddie! I'm awake! I'm awake!" Her heart sank. It was a dream?! No! "Aww! No! I'm awake?! Really, Maddie?! You couldn't have waited like five more seconds?!" She flopped back into her pillows in defeat. "What do you want?" she groaned, her voice muffled by the pillows.
Maddie laughed. "Someone's not a morning person."
Liv glared at her. "You better have a really good reason for waking me up at the best part of my dream."
Maddie laughed again, this time with that little snort that she does. "Dream, huh? Any chance that it was about… Holden?"
This time it was Liv's turn to throw the pillows. "Shut up!" she whined as she chucked one at her twin. "Now if you don't have a good reason, I'm going back to sleep." she said, pulling the covers over her head.
"Oh, I'm sorry." Maddie said, sounding not the least bit sorry. "I didn't realize that the shoes You ordered for prom wasn't a good enough reason."
Liv immediately threw the covers off of her and sat up excitedly. "Shoes? Gimme gimme gimme!" Prom was tonight and she was almost worried she wouldn't get her shoes. Sure she had plenty of amazing shoes in her closet that would totally match her dress, but this was prom! 'Amazing' wasn't gonna cut it. Everything had to be perfect!
Maddie tossed her the box that held the perfect shoes she had been waiting for. Liv gasped as she caught it. "Careful, Maddie!" She scolded, hugging the box as if it was her child.
"Liv, calm down. It's not like throwing it was gonna break them. Hate to break it to you, but you're not Cinderella. Those shoes are not glass." She paused. "They're not glass, are they?"
Liv rolled her eyes. "Of course they aren't glass, silly." She stopped and thought about it for a moment. "Kay, but seriously, how cool would that be?"
"That would be pretty cool. " Maddie admitted. "Now open it up. You won't show me your dress, so the least you can do is show me your shoes."
"Fine," said Liv rolling her eyes again. "But only because I really wanna open it!" She began to peel the tape off of the box.
"So," Maddie said casually. "Any chance you wanna tell me about this dream of yours?" Liv smiled at the thought of the dream. And then promptly threw another pillow at Maddie.
"Hey! What was that for?" The other twin protested.
"For ruining it!" Liv responded.
"That good, huh?" Maddie said. She seemed really amused. "Were you guys about to kiss or something?" Liv didn't respond. "Oh, you were." Concluded Maddie, enjoying this more and more. "You guys haven't had your first kiss in real life, have you?"
Liv looked down. "No." she said. "And now I haven't done it in my dreams yet, either!" she whined flopping back dramatically on her pillows yet again. "Stupid dream me! She had to go and stop it before it happened!"
"Wait, so I didn't ruin it," Maddie said. "You did! Why did your dream self stop it?" she mocked. Liv remained silent. "Liv?" Maddie pressed.
"To tell him 'I love you'." She said quietly.
"Awww." said Maddie a little too mockingly. "Another thing that hasn't happened in real life." That statement earned another pillow to the face from Liv. "Kay, seriously?! How many pillows can we possibly have?" Asked Maddie.
"Maddie, we've been dating for a while now. What if he doesn't feel the same?"
"Aw, Liv. Come on, I'm sure he does. I thought it was getting serious. I mean, you guys are going to prom together tonight. Maybe he'll man up and make a move tonight."
Liv smiled at the thought. "Maybe." She said slightly more hopeful.
"Girls!" they heard their mother call from downstairs. "Come on, we have to leave soon!"
Liv clapped her hands excitedly, meanwhile it was Maddie's time to groan. "I don't understand why we have to get our nails done for prom. I mean, who's gonna be looking at my nails anyway?"
"Oh, come on, Maddie. It'll be fun! Besides, don't you want everything to be perfect for your senior prom with Diggie?" asked Liv.
Maddie smiled and did her have giggle, half snort. "Yeah. Fine. I'll go get my stupid nails done with you. But you can't make me like it." Liv rolled her eyes then went to get dressed. Stunning that word was gonna be echoing in her mind all day.

P.S. Let it be known that the entire time I was writing this chapter, I had "All About Us" by Jordan Fisher stuck in my head. XD
