The Love Dance

Love is the word I can't even describe. Love is when you try to express your feelings to a particular person. You eventually get sucked in. I have experienced love before it was nerve racking . Let me tell you how it played out. It was a crisp chilly morning waking to school. While I was walking to middle school my mind was boggled with homework, home and school. Technically I was the middle schools unpopular kid. People called me Jason the four eyes nerd or other mean comments. What always made my miserable day was this girl named Veronica. She was in every one of my classes. I loved her dark black hair that always glistened in the light. Her rosy pinkish cheeks matched her peach colored lips. Her hazel brown eyes always hypnotized me and left me speechless. Valentines day was coming up and I felt determined that I could finally win her heart. I knew that a dance was coming up and I needed to get in that mode. "What should I do?" my boggled mind thought... " I know I can ask her to the dance!". I grinned in excitement and then I finally arrived at school. I knew also they where offering love notes that could score some extra points on her appeal. I knew I had to act fast. At lunch time I dashed out of my math class and went to the front of the office and drew out my last ten cents. I thought it was worth it. I knew it was worth it. I suddenly thought what should I write to the love of my life? What if I said something bad. Or even worst " hi happy valentines day!". I had to focus. With my hand quivering. I wrote " Hi happy valentines day! I just wanted to know if you wanted to go to the dance with me? I don't mind if you don't want to go...... I just like you. Every class you look at me with you're mesmerizing eyes and your cute smile." I then wrote my name. I reread the love note and dropped it in the box decorated full of crimson red and pink hearts. A nervous week passed by.... " Oh my gosh!" I realized in shock as I jumped out of my bed. "Today is the dance!" I looked at the time and it was 8:35. I had to get ready for this once in lifetime. I wore my best red shirt and blue jeans. I then scurried down the stairs and rapidly started munching on my honey nut Cheerios. I then dashed out the door with no 'good morning kiss' to my mom or a 'good morning' to my dad. I got to school just in time before the bell. i ran to my locker and got my supplies and some stride mint gum and I was ready for the day. Within three hours of painfully school work it was finally the dance. I pulled out 5 pieces of gum in my mouth to cover the hideous odour of my onion breathe from my ham sandwich. It was finally the dance. My mind went into a nervous breakdown and so I just sat on the bench for a while. Twenty songs passed by.... I was still to nervous to go see Veronica. I then stood up from the bench and walked around people dancing and chatting. I then met eyes with her. She was wearing a aqua blue dress that out stood and out dazzled all the other middle school girls dresses. She started to walk nervously toward me. I stood like a statue because I was nervous and scared at the same time. She finally introduced herself to me. I think I blushed unknowingly because she then giggled and smiled. Veronica's soft sweet sensitive voice spoke. " Hi Jason... I received your Valentines letter..... I ...... would love to.........have.. a ...... dance with you." I automatically answered "Yes!" Thank gosh the next song was Love Story By Taylor Swift because that was the slow dance song. She placed her hands on my shaking shoulders and I then put my hands on her shoulders. She then whispered quickly " Jason Put you're hand on my waist remember?" I quickly recovered and put my hands on her waist. I tried not not to not to make eye contact and just last the song. She caught my eyes and I caught hers. My eyes where suddenly glued by her magical apperince. Veronica said then " Jason "I like you too." My heart started to pump more blood as I was in love. My mind went crazy with mixed feelings like love, embarassment, confusement and overwhelming joy. She then kisses me quickly on the cheek and walked away. Her kiss was like a big ball of love bundled up in one swift, sweet,soft kiss. I thought I was going to faint. . So after the song we separated and went our own ways. Now in school when we pass each other I always think about that time at that dance when we danced. That time we always joke and talk to eachother about what happened at the Valentines Dance.
