The boy didn't understand how she could look prettier, he had never contemplated it, but somehow, she looked now better than ever. She had on a white dress, with two straps sticking out from the sweetheart neckline, closing in the back with a bow tied perfectly by the woman, the skirt was A-line, shaping her waist beautifully. She had black stiletto heels, they had a brooch around her ankles, Cody looked at them carefully, then looked up at her neck, she had a gold necklace with a pearl in the middle, also a chain with rhinestones all around , decorating your chest and giving it a special shine. Even in the dim light, Cody could see the golden shadow on her eyes, with purple rims and elongated lashes with even some sparkle in them, that is how carefully he was looking at her, Belle had her hair up with a braid crown and the rest of her hair with delicate curls falling down her shoulders, on the back of her braid she had white and golden pearls in a hair ornament, he finally deigned to walk forward.

The floor looked like gold, the house was way bigger than what Anna had seen, they had decorated it as if it were part of a dream. Flowers and plants falling from the ceiling, with the chandelier intertwined in them, the piano resonated on the walls with marble pillars in the four corners, lights in the leaves and in the corners, nobody knew where the music came from, but it was heard with the perfect echo

"So? How's it look?" She asked, showing herself head to toe and spinning for him.

"I believe I understand now why did James called you angel." He murmured.

"What?" She repeated, out of breath.

"Nothing it's just that... You look beautiful." He finally said, still with the flowers. The bouquet he had chosen had white petunias, tulips, baby breaths, white lavender and Cornus Kousa all together and tied up with white silk.

"Let's fix this" She mumbled, as she took one of the petunias and placed it on his pocket. "Much better."

"Shall we?" He opened his arm, letting her hook herself with him. They both entered the party, hearing the loud music.

Monica and Ronald only watched from afar. "They've grown so much" She whispered, feeling a trail of water on her face.

"I know— Are you... crying?"

"Not a word about this to Warren or Jake" She dangerously warned as they walked away to the van.

Megan spotted Cody among the crowd, she ran towards him, she had a black short dress with a black necklace on her, among with a up-do messy bun, Anna thought she looked unattainably beautiful for her, she saw Anna and her anger flustered to her cheeks, turning them red. "Annie! Cody! Glad you're here, welcome."

"Thanks for the invitation."

"Sure, no problem. Who are those for?" She asked, holding her hands, but then pointing at the flowers.

Anna looked at him with innocent eyes, making him stutter. "I— Um... For you, of course." He decided to stick to character, knowing he had hurt her, but not being able to say nothing at the moment.

"Aww! You are so cute! Come dance with me" She tried to be quirky, but when she pulled, Anna held his hand. "If it's okay with you Anna, of course" She added, falsely smiling.

"Oh I... Yeah, of course." She smiled, putting a lock of hair away after letting him go. "Have fun" Anna mumbled, seeing them dance at the sound of an old romantic song, around the nineteen eighty something, violins sounded around, clarinets and flutes made them see like they floating, Anna wished she was the one with him, taking his hand on her waist, holding his other hand on hers, looking at him in the eye.

But the fact of seeing them both, dancing in that position, didn't let her even imagine that she was there. The music began to play, it felt almost nostalgic, moments flew through her mind. They weren't intentionally there to hurt her, but the song felt like an instant between those thousands when they shared a smile, a brush of a touch, the stroke of a hidden blush, those looks.
