My True Love

The Winter Dance

The night of the dance, I had an amazing time. I had so much fun with all of my friends. I tried to forget about the fact that i wss moving to California in just a few weeks. Madi may not have known it, but I caught her taking glances at me. I still felt horrible about rejecting her. But I couldn't think about that. I'm here with Chris. I should be focused on him. Everytime I dance with him I'm so awkward and I trip over my feet. But, I promised Madi a dance. I felt awkward with Chris, but when I danced with Madi, it felt so right. It felt like her arms are where I belonged. I didn't stumble, I didn't trip. It was perfect. I loved that night. Until it ended. After I got home from the dance, I was texting Chris. Earlier that night, his brother Ethan had told me that Chris wanted to ask me out. So I confronted him about it. "Do you want to be with me?" I asked him. "Of course I do." "Then why haven't you asked me out?" "Because your moving." "I understand that but don't you want to spend the last couple weeks I have here with me?" "Idk". That was the end of that conversation. After that, I thought it was the end of me and Chris, so I went to Madi. I knew this was a sign that I should be with her. I texted her and told her I wanted to be with her. She was scared. She didn't want to date me just to lose me in a couple weeks when I moved. I understood that. Shortly after our conversation ended, Chris texted me again. This time, he actually asked me out. Of course I said yes, because I thought I'd never get a chance at something like this again. Once again, a bad decision.
