The way this high schooler asked his boyfriend to homecoming will melt your brittle heart

Love is dead. Romance is a fool’s errand. Such are the tenets of your bitter, irreparably broken heart.

But then you see this video of a teen asking his boyfriend to homecoming, and you realize how stubborn, how afraid you’ve been to open your heart.

High schooler Dustin Holmes posted the vid to his Facebook page to immortalize his highly ornate stunt.

He invited scores of friends to line both sides of a walkway, and at the end, he’s holding up a poster that asks his boyfriend to the homecoming dance.

Because that’s not nearly enough, he also sings a version of Jason Mraz’s “I’m Yours,” rejiggering the lyrics to make them more personalized.

At one point, he’s heard singing:

“So I guess what I’m saying is there ain’t no better chance / than for you to come with me so you can teach me how to dance / That’s what I aim to do so the choice is up to you.”
