It was late evening and I was getting ready for a ball. Outside were snowflakes slowly dancing with cold breeze. I put on my blue ball gown and my silver high heels. Then I put my hair on simple, but pretty hairstyle with silver accessories. One last look in the mirror and then I opened my door and walked outside. As soon as I stepped outside I felt cold snow melting on my warm skin. After 2 or 3 minutes my stagecoach appeared and I sit next to my friends, who already were in our stagecoach. We said ,,hi” to each other and we started chatting about the ball. After 10 minutes our stagecoach stopped and before I could blink we were standing in front the huge door. I took one deep breath in and out and opened the door. Everybody in ballroom was looking at us. We slowly  made our way down the beautiful staircase. We went separate ways and I made my way to one of the corners. I felt cold coming from the wall which I was leaning on as I was watching people. Suddenly one mysterious young man probably my age started making his way to me. ,,Would you like to dance?” he asked. ,, Uh…yeah…sure“ I answered surprised. He took my and leaded me to the dance floor. Then he put his free hand on my waist and I put mine on his shoulder. We danced in comfortable silence staring into each other’s eyes. The world stopped as he swung me slightly from side to side. We kept dancing even when the song stopped and another started. After few song we decided to take a break and he took me outside. He offered me his jacket while we were walking in snowy gardens and talking. I felt my hands getting colder and right in that moment as if he can read minds he took my hand in his and continued talking as if nothing happened. I blushed as I felt his eyes on my. Then he cupped my face and pecked me on lips. ,,I have to go I have few things that cannot wait, but one day I´ll come back for you I promise, if you´ll wait for me“ he said while took both my hands. „I will“ i answered while tears were forming in my eyes. Then he turned and dissapeared in trees. I went back to the ballroom to say goodbye to my friends and i went home. As I was lying on bed I was wondering that that love on first sight maybe really exists. Next morning i woked up by my phone ringing. ,,QUICKLY SWITCH ON YOUR TV. YOU HAVE TO WATCH THE NEWS. Good morning btw“ said my friend. I ran down the stairs and switched on the tv. I turned on the volume as i read the title MISSING DUKE and black haired lady on tv said ,,We did not see him since yesterday evening on the Christmas ball...“and then appeared on screen photo of that mysterious boy from yesterday ball.......
