Chapter 10 (1/2)

Her Prom

[Jessica’s POV]

I attended the prom, ALONE!! So annoying! I hope that guy will not see me. I hope there will be a hero that will come to save me. My sight became blurry, a tear escaped from my eyes.

I become more annoyed when the sweet music started playing. I want to disappear. I wish I could disappear like a burst bubble.

[Allen’s POV]

I saw her sitting at the corner, She’s downcasted, to the point that the part of the gown grabbed by her hands is already creased. She is feeling low. I suddenly went to her while smiling. Then she slowly raised her head to look up. I just smiled at her while she’s still having her tears streaming down her face. I think she was shocked when she saw that the one standing in front of her is me.

Still cannot believe it.

“Hi, Jessica!” I greeted her. She rubbed her eyes, probably thinking that she’s hallucinating.

“Can I have this dance with you?”

When she heard that, her tears finally started falling again and then she hugged me tight.

Would you dance

if I ask you to dance?

Would you run

and never looked back?

Would you cry

if you saw me crying?

And  save my soul tonight.

My hand is holding her hand, while facing each other, I gently pulled her to dance. Her tears gradually disappeared and turned into a smile.

Would you tremble

if I touch your lips?

Would you laugh?

Oh please tell me this.

Now would you die,

for the one you loved?

Hold me in your arms,

Tonight.

I put her hands around my neck and my hands on her waist. We just stared and smiled at each other.
