It was the day for Prom, I had no Prom Date. Well, it didn’t have any date last year, all I did was  take photographs of people because I was the Chief Photographer of the School Paper back then. As I entered the complex, I saw Vine shrinking on a corner. She was alone.

“Hey Vine! Where’s Ardent?” I asked her.

“I haven’t seen him yet. I guess he’s not coming.” She replied sadly. “How about you?”

“I went alone. Just like last year. Wayne and Kaitlyn are having a great time. Pietro is definitely busy, he’s the President of the Student Council.” I told her.

Then ‘A Thousand Years’ played, it was a song which was sang by Christina Perri.

Heart beats fast
Colors and promises
How to be brave
How can I love when I'm afraid
To fall
But watching you stand alone
All of my doubt
Suddenly goes away somehow

One step closer
I have died every day
waiting for you
Darlin' don't be afraid
I have loved you for a
Thousand years
I'll love you for a
Thousand more

“May I have this dance?” I asked her.

“Sure.” She replied.

“You are stunning.” I told her and she smiled.

While the song was playing, we were just staring at each other. It seemed that she liked me again. I just savored that moment. I pulled her hand and we ran.

As the song finished we were kissing. We were smiling at each other after we kissed.

“Thank you.” She whispered.

It was a lovely night, we danced four times plus I finally had my first kiss. I was called upon the stage for the coronation for Prom King & Queen. I stood there with Pietro, Wayne, Vine, Georgie and Kaitlyn. Georgie Wilson, was Pietro’s love interest but due to complications, they didn’t work out. I was the Prom King and Vine was the Prom Queen. We were both entitled to a speech but Vine told me that we should sing together. We sang Hugh Grant’s and Hayley Benett’s ‘Way Back Into Love’.

(Vine)
I've been living with a shadow overhead,
I've been sleeping with a cloud above my bed,
I've been lonely for so long,
Trapped in the past,
I just can't seem to move on!

(Me)
I've been hiding all my hopes and dreams away,
Just in case I ever need 'em again someday,
I've been setting aside time,
To clear a little space in the corners of my mind!


(Both)
All I wanna do is find a way back into love.
I can't make it through without a way back into love.

We sang it for each other. She was my Prom Date after all. The night ended, Vine and I had so much fun. It was our best night. I was so thankful for having such a memory with her. It was a sign for Carpe Diem to finally push through.

January 17

Vine,

It was the greatest night of my life. It was the grandest experience I’ve ever had. As if I we’re in heaven. Thank you Vine! I really love you. I so much love you.

A Dance To Remember

A dance to remember, 
In a song of forever.
A dance to remember, 
Of the steps of forever.

Remember that day, filled with sways? 
Those turns, those movements,
The touch of your hands.
The stares, those heart to heart feelings. 

A Thousand Years was the background music
I loved you for a thousand years., were the most wonderful lyrics.
Sang by Christina Perri and
Was danced by us. 

When we dance, I am happiest
When we dance, I am also saddest. 
Happiest, for every time we dance our love, 
Gets deeper and deeper.
Saddest, for our last dance, 
Was when you turned back and ended our love. 

A dance to remember, 
Those dances, those sweet dances,
Carried so much emotions, the deepest emotions.
A dance to remember,
The last time we danced,
You left me in pieces -- left me with no love

A dance to remember,
A sound to forever, 
A dance to remember,
An end of forever.
