HOPE

Dinner

Paul felt nothing like this before in his entire life. He knew she made him happy. He just knew that it was her he's been waiting for all his life. And now she is here besides him, even more he is holding her hand. He couldn't help but smile ear to ear as he was walking with her.
Silent took place between them as they were walking. Kristin was feeling shy that her cheeks started going red. She was blushing all of a sudden.
"Kristin" said Paul, to break the awkward moment.
"Hmm, yes" she replied, trying to hide her face. But it seems like it did not work. He saw that she was blushing. He felt nervous.
"Are you blushing?" He asked with a smile on his face just to make her smile too.
"No! Oh No!" She said acting mad and still trying to hide it.
"Okay, okay! Whatever you say." Paul said still smiling at her.
Kristin was feeling embarrassed, as she had figured out that he knew she was lying, because of the smile he gave her.
   They where standing in front of the stairs looking down on the crowd there for the dinner. When suddenly everyone's eyes fell on them. They were all stunned by what they saw. The girl no one knew is wearing that glamorous dress,and was holding the hands of the captain who was wearing his uniforms, that made him the gentlest man on the ship.
"Shall we?" Paul said looking at Kristin. She gave him a little "yes" kind of smile and they went down the stairs to join the gathered people.
    Before they knew it they were all laughing and talking with everyone. The dinner was almost about to be over that everyone was up their sits and dancing with their beloved ones. Paul wanted to dance with Kristin so much. But when he looked at her she didn't look that interested in the dance at all.
"Emm Kristin" he said
"Yes, Paul." She replied
"I was thinking..." but he couldn't finish his sentence.
"You were thinking ?"
"Emm, nothing I was just thinking if you would like another glass of wine." He replied with a little sad face, as he didn't get to say what he wanted to.
"Oh, sure." Her voice was filled with a little disappointment as well. She thought he was going to ask her to dance but he did not. Instead he just asked her for another drink. What is he thinking? Another drink! Come on what kind of guy asks a lady for another glass of wine, when everyone is dancing. Ahhhh what a gentle man he is ¡ A drink seriously! She kept on saying to herself not believing he just said that to her.
    Dinner was already over and everyone started leaving to their rooms. The ball room emptied. But Paul and Kristin were still there just talking about different topics that mattered or that didn't matter at all and enjoying the classical of the piano and the guitar. They just did not wanted to say goodbye to each other.
