We are all looking at these beautiful paintings, and I can't seem to get what happened between me and Jack out of my head.
I know it may not seem like a big deal but when he looked into my eyes I felt something different then ever before.
My heart felt like it belonged to someone else. Like it wasn't mine anymore. I felt as if from that moment on, it was beating for more reasons then just to keep me alive but to also feel for someone else.
That is when I feel something grace my hand softly.
I look to the side and see Jack.
He is staring at the painting in front of him and for a second I think I see him look at me from the side without moving his head.
I blink twice to make sure I didn't Imagine it but this time he moves to face me and stares. Actually it was more like he is studying my face.
I begging to think I have something in my face so I start to wipe my face as fast as I can
"Is there something on my face" I ask
,embarrassed"No, you're fine" he says with a smirk, gently grabbing my hand and pulling it away from my face and putting his hand back in his pocket
"Oh, you scared me for a minute"
"Don't worry, I would have let you know"
I don't know what to say so I just turn awkwardly, when I see more champagne.
"do you want more?" I ask him
"No it's okay, thank you though"
I grab one for myself and begging drinking it
I face him again
"You should be very proud of yourself, your art is extraordinary."
"Thank you, I try my best"
"No problem, you deserve the compliment" I say
" What do you do?"
"Oh well I'm actually in my 2nd year of studying ballet in Juilliard"
"Wow, you must be extraordinary, I have a few friends that go there for music. If you could please let me know when you perform, I would love to see you."
I don't even know why but I feel so warm inside, I feel like someone truly wants to see me perform, see me do the one thing I'm the most passionate about, and it make me smile.
Smiling, I say "yes of course, I will let Anastasia let you know"
"Perhaps you could let me know yourself?" his face turning a bit red, he pulls out his phone from his pocket. "Here, only if you want of course, you could save your number on my phone."
Not even gonna lie, the fact that he didn't pressure me to do it made me feel comfortable about it
"Yes"
I grab his phone and put the number in
Anastasia let's me know that she is leaving and asks if I want to go, I ask if she was leaving with Louis but she said that if she came with, then she leaves with me.
So I called it a night and leave with Anastasia but not before saying goodbye to Louis and Jack
As I arrive home I sat goodbye to Anastasia
I take a shower, remove my makeup, brush my teeth and go to bed
The best feeling is going to bed after a long day my thoughts are broken when my phone lights up
Random number
Hi, this is Jack, I just
wanted to let you know
so you could save my
number. I hope you
have a goodnight :)Aurora
Thank you, I hope you
have a goodnight as well,
and I hope one day you
could paint me something,
your art is exceptional :)And just like that, I fell asleep.
