Love Over Everything

chapter 2 "Did that just happen? "

Thomas walked outside where Matt and Johnny were showing off tossing a football to Tina and Farrah. How had he not known such beauty since elementary school. "Thomas heads up!" he looked up from his thoughts just in time to save his nose, snagging the football and dropping his drinks. He looked up to see Matt and a few of his other teammates doubled over with laughter. He focused aiming the ball and like a bullet let it go hitting Matt close to the family jewels. "Jokes on you Phelps" he yelled turning around to get another drink. His mind was on the brown skinned beauty, to busy to be concerned with his friend's antics. As he walked back in he could hear a slow song playing on the speakers and all the couples or soon to be couples had taken to slow dancing. His eyes searched the room for her ,just maybe he could figure out who she was and ask her to dance. "You blew it" he told himself blowing out a breath. He was heading back to grab a cup when he heard someone laugh out loud. He turned around and zeroed in on her. . With her red dress and cowboy boots she was perfect. She looked to be talking to Angela who he considered to be the know it all of the school. Maybe he could get her to introduce him and ask her to dance. Still trying to figure out his next move he didn't realize he was almost two steps away. "Angela" he cleared his throat catching the girl's eyes as she looked at him. "Well well well Pearson what do we have here" she giggled and teased as she does in class everyday. "I saw a beautiful girl couldn't believe she was standing next to you" I joked hoping Angela wouldn't take it serious as we kept this routine up daily. Angela was beautiful after all but her beauty came from keeping up with appearances. She was about 5'5 with fair skin and curly hair, although equally beautiful she didn't hold his attention. "Ouch that truly hurt my feelings Thomas" she said grabbing at her chest and sticking her tongue out at me. "Madison is showing me up though I must admit I used all the good stuff on her tonight." She teased her friend who brushed her off and had a gentle blush to her cheeks. "Madison you've got to be bored how about a dance? " Madison I loved the way her name bounced off my lips. I was truly trying to be cool asking her to dance but on the inside I was begging. "I can't really dance" she responded as I was filled with hope, it wasn't a no. "How about an awkward two step then" I joked still trying to get her in my arms. She nodded her head and took my hand as I led her on to the dance floor. Usher's and Monica' s slow jam was booming through the speakers as I pulled her close.

I asked her for her hand, said would you like to dance. .. so pleased that I had asked she quickly took my hand. . And we danced and fell in love on a slow jam. ..~Usher "Slow Jam"

This song was playing for us I thought as I placed my hands at the small of her back. This moment felt right, she felt right. I could smell the scent of something sweet on her skin "what is that you're wearing" I couldn't help myself asking as she looked up at me "your scent. . I mean your perfume?" Great I sounded like an idiot. She laughed a little bit at my nervousness "sweet pea, it's a fragrance from bath and body works and I like your scent too." I smiled at her glad she had a sense of humor unlike some of the girls I've dated in the past. I laughed at myself out loud feeling like an idiot. I looked at her staring at me waiting for her to speak, hoping she could pull me out of the spell her eyes had on me. I could get lost in her eyes forever. "Umm" she said as I snapped back to reality to see that I was still moving while the music had stopped. I quickly let her go still staring, it was as if she couldn't look away, as if she could see in that moment that I couldn't be apart from her if I wanted to. "How about another drink" I said trying to keep her longer but she shook her head no and laughed "if I drink anymore I'll be in the bathroom the rest of the party" she smiled as she put her head down shyly. I loved her smile. I knew I had to make my move right then and there. "How about some fresh air then" I asked grabbing her hand hoping she didn't think I was being to forward. When she looked back up at me with those big brown eyes and her red cheeks blushing my knees went weak. "I just need to let Ang know, can I meet you by the door? " she said already moving away from me "I'll meet you on the moon if I have to." She laughed as I made my way to lean against the door frame little did she know I wasn't kidding....
