Steph's Point of View

I took his hand and immediately, we danced. We didn't look at each other's eyes but we danced. It feels like were alone here, the background noises were fading and everything around us was a blur, I can only see him and only him. Three years, and I'm still infatuated by him.

I can smell him, he smelled so manly. He has this sweet and fresh smell, somehow it got stuck on my nose. He's so close to me, I can almost feel his breath, it made me even more red. Finally, the heat coming from him made me warm. What's happening to me? Am I sick?!

Soon, the dance ended. I was about to let go but he didn't let go of my hand. "Later at the balcony." He said before letting go and walked away. My heart thumped when he didn't let go of my hand. After that dance I went straight to the comfort room to calm my nerves.

"Pull yourself together, Stephanie." I whispered to myself. I can see myself blushing, I'm shaking too. I'm so nervous from this situation. What will happen at the balcony later? Its like I want to go but I don't.

~BALCONY~

This was the same place when we both confessed to each other. It brings back memories, it took me a lot of courage just to say that to him and I wasn't expecting his reply.

*FLASHBACK*

"What I was saying to your sister was true."

"What they were saying is true too."

My heart, leaped out of my body when I heard that. I was so nervous, that it came to the point that I was shaking.

*END OF FLASHBACK*

"You came." I heard a very familiar voice behind me.

"I did.. So what is it?"

"I... I wanted to give you that hug when we first confessed."

I paused at his statement. That was a very long time ago, I thought he'd forgotten all about it, but I thought wrong. I was deeply moved by what he said, I was mixed with happiness and nervousness.

"I-I thought you'd f-forgotten all about it..."

"I haven't. I've longed for it. I've waited. And now here we are."

My heart was beating so loudly I could hear it. I don't know what to respond. My mind went completely blank hearing what he said.
