Infatuated By You

I

There she was as she moved with gentle elegance her steps light, as a feather painting a picture of pure beauty. She gracefully twirled and leaped, her movements flowing like a delicate swan on stage. She then lowered her head taking a bow, with grace and respect as a gesture that speaks volumes of humility. Her breathe is deep and rhythmic yet there is a gentle quality to it like, a soothing breeze. Claps abruptly echoed through the, empty hall filling the quiet space with a vibrant energy. She looked up as their eyes locked intensely a magnetic connection, that speaks volume without a single word, their intense eye contact is momentarily broken leaving a lingering connection, that echoes in their souls as she walked away from the bright shining stage.

As she came back to the ballroom she was wearing a beautiful rosé dress that hugged her waist to her chest the material looked soft and fragile. she looked soft and fragile the necklace that she wore dripped down between her breast never once in my life did i ever think id be jealous of a necklace everything she wore came to complement her beautiful skin that glisters when its faced with a little bit of light she shone like gold she was a beauty that my vision has been blessed to even get a glimpse of.

"Count Vronsky" he snapped at the call of his name he turned as his eyes were forcefully peeled of the figure he has been staring at for quiet a while now he turned he body only to be met by a woman "your cousin asks for you" "Betsy?" "yes" Vronsky walked through the ballroom that was filled with a beautiful melody as people danced his eyes wondered the room trying to find Betsy. As he found Betsy he greeted her by a kiss of the hand "you aksed for me" asked Vronsky "yes i did" there was a pause as Vronsky waited for he to finish her sentence. "I see you are interested in Eliza" Betsy said "Eliza?" replied Vronsky with a confused expression "Eliza Genevieve White Stone, the woman you've been staring at all night I mean look at you, you haven't even danced with one woman today she must have really peaked your attention" Betsy looked at Vronsky as he stayed quiet "Dont worry this one is not married nor engaged " Betsy laughed as she looked at Vronsky who had a very much irked expression on his face "is that all" Vronsky asked "yes it is" Betsy replied Vronsky quickly left Betsy's side as he went looking foe Eliza.

As Vronsky saw Eliza he approached "may i have this dance Lady Eliza" Eliza looked at the man in front of her a bit confused as to how he knew her name she tried to desperately remember if they've met before tonight but nothing came to mind "are you alright my lady" Elizabeth quickly came back to reality as she was met by the dark icy blue eyes "oh my apologizes I would love to dance with you...." Eliza looked at the gentlemen before her she didn't know his name "Count Vronsky" "Vronsky" Vronsky watched her lips as they whispered his name "How do you know my name Count Vronsky" Vronsky's eyes moved from her lips to her deep dark brown eyes "Well to be honest with you you peaked my interest as soon as you got on that stage and graced us with your beauty and elegance. Eliza you dance so beautifully you were like a Swan." "I am flattered Count Vronsky to dance like a swan was my main goal" Vronsky laughed he didn't know why he was laughing it wasn't even funny was he nervous? Vronsky asked himself.

As they danced their bodies moved closer to each other as if they were magnets attracting each other. As they danced Eliza observed Vronsky he was a beauty the was his hair gently fell on his forehead they way he was taller than her the way he was such a gentlemen they way he was nervous she liked everything about him from his appearance to his behavior. As the song finished they both bowed and parted ways.

Eliza couldn't help but be intrigued by the Count he was all that was going through her head at the moment. As she stood there thinking about the Count her friend came behind her "you should stay away from Count Vronsky" Eliza turn with a confused expression "what do you mean?" Eliza questioned "Have you not heard the rumours about him...oh wait you weren't here you see 2 years ago Vronsky got into a scandalous affair with a married woman Anna Karenina but she ended up ki***ng herself in the end. Rumour also has it that she was also pregnant with Vronsky's and apparently she did give birth to the child" Eliza was shocked to such a rumour she didn't want to believe in it after all it was just a rumour but rumours have some truth in it. As Eliza argued with herself she felt a gentle tap on her left shoulder she turned around only to met by Vronsky himself. "Would you have a walk with my lady" Vronsky asked "of course" Eliza replied as they went outside the cold windy air buried itself in Eliza's skin as goosebumps started to form Vronsky quickly noticed and offered his jacket to her "are you sure i can borrow this... it is your military jacket after all" Eliza question "yes of course you can I don't want you to freeze now do I" Eliza chuckled "now then Eliza how long have you been doing ballet?" Vronsky asked "Ever since I could remember my mother taught ballet she herself used to do ballet aswell...in her youth however, after she passed I become obsessed with it I don't know why...but here I am still dancing" Eliza said she looked up at Vronsky only to be met with eyes filled with pity "Oh don't look at me like that Vronsky I hate being pitied " Vronsky quickly surrendered a he lifted his hands up apologizing Eliza laughed and Vronsky had a bright smile on his face "may I ask you something Count Vronsky" Vronsky looked at her a bit confused yet interested in what she was going to ask.
