Dick had gotten to Vanessa's house an hour before the dance so they could get pictures; Bruce was a bit of a wreck, just like Vanessa's dad.
"I can't believe it there first formal dance, THEY GROW UP SO FAST" Bruce sniffled.
"It seems like yesterday she was learning to ride a bike!" Vanessa's dad went on. Vanessa's mom just took pictures and commented on how cute they looked. Dick was holding Vanessa's hand as she took the 6th picture, then it was off to the dance. Vanessa's mom handed her a camera, which Vanessa put in her purse and she and Dick walked out to the limo. Once outside Vanessa turned and smiled at Dick, who seemed a little nervous, she didn't blame him, she was nervous too.
They finally got to the dance were there friends were waiting. "Van, I love you dress" Ally was saying, "Dick, love the pink tie" Brice added it, Dick wasn't sure if he should punch him in the face or say thanks so he just put his arm around Vanessa. After a lot more pictures, Dick and Vanessa finally sat down and just smiled at each other, Vanessa was so gorgeous; there that's the word gorgeous! She was like a princess, Dick felt like she was royalty and that it was an honor to be next to her. Vanessa thought Dick was the cutest guy there, he had taken his shades off for the dance and his blue-green eyes said it all.
After sitting there awhile Dick looked over, he wanted to ask Vanessa if she wanted to dance but most of his friends were grinding with there dates (wow) and Vanessa was Dick's best friend, that would be really weird, he was constantly saying that it was a friend date and god damn it that how it was gonna stay so he just smiled at her. Vanessa had the same idea, but she wanted to dance with Dick, just not in that way! Just then the music slowed, it took Dick awhile to break his concentration and realize it was a slow dance, he turned to ask Vanessa but just then the music sped up. Damn! He wanted to long and missed the slow dance! Vanessa was obviously a little upset but simply smiled as her friends danced around were there dates tie, seeing that Dick took his off and gave it to Vanessa, though he knew somewhere in his mind that didn't make up for the slow dance.
