Yours Only (n.g)

Chapter 39

Rebecca's POV.

It was almost night by the time I arrived at the hall but I really wish I could find a guy to be my dance partner.

I really wish that it would be Nash.

I entered the hall and everybody else was dancing happilly with their partner. I would be a total dumb because I didn't know who should I dance with.

I noticed that there were my friends with their partner. They were all couple so it wasn't a big deal though.

The good thing was that I could know who were my friends but they didn't know me because I just bought my dress and they won't notice.

I decided to walk to the crowd to keep myself busy with stuff without anyone knowing that I was coming.

It was when finally I bumped into a guy.

"I'm so sorry" I apologized.

"No it's fine" he replied, "So who's your dance parter?"

I stayed quiet for a moment. It was embarassing, knowing that I had no dance partner. It was kinda sad.

"Uh actually I don't have a dance partner but yeah I know I'm so stupid for coming here alone" I admitted.

He shook his head, "No of course you're not. I don't have a partner neither"

"What? Seriously?" I responded surprisedly.

"Yeah, and why don't you be my dance partner for tonight?" he suggested and I know I couldn't deny him because I literally had no choice. I would rather take him as my dance partner instead of being a loser who had no partner at all.

I ended up saying, "What a good idea"

He gave me his hand and gently I held his hands and we both walked into the crowd to dance.

"Why don't we make a deal?" he began to speak when we started dancing.

"What kind of deal?" I asked, full of curiousity.

"We shouldn't tell our name till the ball ends, but we can share all about our story" he stated and I thought about it for a few seconds.

"Yeah sure why not? It sounds like a good idea though" I finally agreed his idea because it seemed challenging.

"Well so tell me your story" he began, "Why are you alone here?"

I didn't know what to say to him. It was impossible for me to mentioning about Nash so I ended up with saying, "My boyfriend can't make it. You?"

"I broke up with my girlfriend few days ago" he replied and I could hear him letting out a sigh.

"Oh I'm so sorry about that" I responded, but at the same time I remembered about Nash because we broke up too and I just really can't.

"It's fine seriously" he assured and I was just smiling at him.

I then looked him through his eyes and his eyes made me remember about Nash. I miss him so much and I wish he was here with me.

"So what's your plan on summer break?" he asked, probably changing our conversation topic.

"I don't know yet" I admitted, "What about you?"

"I'm planning to go with my family but still don't know yet" he chuckled and I smiled at him.

We were still dancing and suddenly the song changed into Thinking Out Loud by Ed Sheeran. To be honest I liked Ed's songs, especially that one.

"Darling I will be loving you till we're seventy"

"And baby my heart could still fall as hard at twenty three"
