There she stood at the far end of the gym
Red dress
A blue sash around her waist tied in a bow in the back
Raven black hair in a ponytail
The biggest and brightest Emerald green eyes
Focused on me
I stood at the entrance
Black slacks
Black dress shoes
White dress shirt
An awkward jr. high student
Nervous to
Our eyes met
We crossed the floor to each other
Hugged
Then stepped on to the dance floor
She glided along the floor
Like gravity could not touch her
I on the other hand
Stumbling
Clumsy
Oaf
She did not seem to notice
Nor seem to care
We danced a little
Had refreshments
Sat on the bleachers and talked a little
After the dance
We held hands and walked to the front of the school
Where our parents were waiting
We hugged once more
said we'd see each other in class on Monday
Then departed to our parent's cars
And went home
