Star-Crossed Lovers
We'd cross the deepest oceans
cargo across the sea
and if you don't believe me
Just put your hands on me
And all the constellations
shine down for us to see
and if you don't believe me
just put your hands on me
Hands on me/ Vanessa Carlton.
She was up on the stage dancing her heart out. She seemed familiar, other than the other day at the store when I first talked to her. Yet something about her face, her eyes, seemed so familiar, like I've seen them before but I just never paid any attention to them, or her. Her solo was beautiful. She hit each step with such poise and moved right into the next movement with such grace.
I was dancing to my favorite song. This was my first ever solos and I couldn't screw it up. Especially because he was out there, watching my every move. I knew him, but he seemed not to recognize me. Ok so I did look different. I was taller, my body shaped out, finally, my hair was longer, and I had an amazing tan, but still I've to school with him for 4 years now, even though I am a year younger he should still remember me. He's so cute to. His short brown hair, his light brown eyes, the way he can laugh even in the most awkward or tough situations.
So it started at the video store. I wanted to watch a comedy, a classic but a comedy, and what better than Ferris Bueller's Day Off. I was reaching for it and so was this other girl. Thinking that I could get it first we both reached out and our hands hit each others. It was magical, I felt something I've never felt with any girl before and I could tell it was new to this girl too. She looked at me giggled a little and smiled.
"I'm so sorry" she said.
"It's alright" I replied.
"Uh so I know this may sound weird but what is your zodiac sign".
Zodiac sign? What?
"Uh Gemini, why"
"Just wondering, oh I'm sorry but I have to go, bye."
"Bye"
She ran out of the store. I thought I knew her but oh well.
So now I'm sitting here at some stupid dance recital. Why? Because parents are evil and make you go to your sister's recital. I can't even leave early either. Talk about fair. Good part is I can go see her after she is done dancing, and maybe get her name.
