A night to remember for a prom couple in West Palm Beach. A cheerleader and a boy on the autism spectrum. 

"The most amazing, fabulous date ever," says Jonathan Ramilo.

Mikal Bartosik and Jonathan Ramila arrive in style to their senior prom.

"I don't believe it. It was unbelievable."

Words can't describe the moment.

"I saw her dress this afternoon and I was so shocked, " says Ramilo. 

"It's been really fun. We've gotten a lot of good pictures he's really excited," says Bartosik.

That excitement hit the dance floor where Jonathan was center stage. Moving to the beats with his prom court sash.

Both have been friends for several years. While the two don't have classes together. Mikal made an effort to talk to him.

She knew Jonathan would be tee perfect date for senior prom.

"People just need to learn that don't judge a book by its cover. Basically because of disability people are always going to be people," says Bartosik.

"I want to thank to this one girl that she was the best unique person," says Ramilo.
