Just as they wanted to hug, the music started, and the emcee announced the beginning of the program. They laughed, and Prince whispered, 'I guess we'll have to wait a little longer for that hug.'
Betty smiled, her eyes sparkling with excitement. 'I guess so,' she replied, her voice barely audible over the music.
Despite being separated by distance and surrounded by their respective families, Betty and Prince couldn't help but steal glances at each other throughout the program. They would catch each other's eye, smile, and quickly look away, only to repeat the process again.
Their families seemed oblivious to their silent communication, but Betty's cheeks flushed with excitement, and Prince's eyes sparkled with mischief. They were both fully present in the moment, yet their minds were a thousand miles away, lost in thoughts of each other.
The program ended, and as they stood up to leave, their eyes met once more. This time, they didn't look away. They exchanged a soft smile, and without a word, they knew what they had to do next.
