Flames Of Life

A Terrible Dancer.

Hey guys, this new chapter is going to be in Daniel's POV.

lets hear his side of story.

Daniel's POV.

I don't really like school parties because it has plenty of drama but I'd rather come here than to be in a kitty party my mom has arranged at our house today.

I sit on a stool near the bar.
Can't say it's a bar because it only has soft drinks, juices and milkshakes.

I see a note laying on the top of my phone.

I pick it up and read.

It was a number. A phone number. I look around to see who put it here and see a girl waving at me signaling the note in my hand.

No, but it happens often and I'm used to it.

Every girl checking me from top to bottom, staring at me.

Sliding into my DMs.

Giving me their phone numbers. It happens alot.

Have I tried to call them ever?
Yup, I have. But not in the way you think.

More like a prank call.

I roll my eyes at her and throw the note.

"Have you asked someone to be your dance partner yet?" Andrew, my friend asks.

"Nah, I'm better alone" I answer.

"What about her?" he says and smiles signaling to Nora.

"Shut up!" I say and hit him with my elbow.

"Oww! That hurts. No, but seriously, are you gonna sit here in this booth and observe people the whole time?" he says.

"If I have to" I shrug ands I stop my glance at a girl in a red dress.

I couldn't stop staring at her like she was the main character.

My jaw dropped as I saw her, knowing she was the ginger girl from the library.

Lisa.

I'm pretty sure, everybody was gawking at her beauty as she entered the hallway.

She looked nervous when she realized she was being watched.

I try to stop myself from staring at her but I couldn't.

She looked like a Goddess.

I intend to ask her to have a dance with me but as soon as I try to walk towards her, I see a guy approaching her first. Crap!

I feel pissed.

But why?

I turn around to see Andrew still staring at her.

I cover his eyes and try to change the topic.

I clear my throat and say "uh.. Let's.. go from here"

He removes my hand from his eyes and looks at her with wide eyes and a smirk.

"Dude, look at her. She is gorgeous. I have to shoot my shot" he says.

"No" I immediately utter without thinking.

He looks at me suspiciously and asks "Why?".

Shit!

Why am I jealous?

No, I'm definitely not.

"Uh.. Sh- I.. don't think that's your type" I say looking at her.

"But why? I mean, She is so beautiful. I don't think that's a problem. Maybe, she will like me to.. " he says and I drag him towards the dance floor.

Suddenly a girl takes his hand and starts dancing with him while I go back to where I was sitting.

I laugh as I look at him.

Suddenly, I feel someone sitting beside me.

I turn around to see her. Lisa.

She was already glaring at me with those sparkly blue eyes.

"Why are you staring at me like that?" I smirk at her.

"I'm not staring at you" she says as she shrugs her shoulder.

"you know what, I don't care. I'm kinda used to it" I look around.

"I'm not checking you out or staring at you at all. Keep your cockiness to yourself" She says in a monotone.

"Keep denying it, ginger" I whisper. smirking ar her.

"You are not attractive to me at all. I mean sure, almost every girl would die to be with you but don't count me in it. I'm not one of the.." she says without realizing how closer she got gradually.

I interrupt whispering "Your eyes are beautiful". The glare she gave with those eyes was so innocent and pure.

She stops and stares at me.

As she realizes how close she is, she immediately leans back.

She starts blushing while bowing her head down avoiding any eye contact.

Her red cheeks matches her elegant dress.

Oh, and uh.. did I mention she looks so beautiful when she blushes?

As the music turns slow, I look at her and offer a hand saying "would you like to?"

"Uh.. I- I'm not good at it. I don't know how to.. dance" she stutters.

"Don't worry, I'm with you" I smile as I take her hand.

I lead her in to a turn and she throws herself to me when she finishess the spin.

She definitely doesn't know how to dance but I'm falling for it.

I look at her as she gets too close to me due to the spin.

She avoids making eye contact and looks around.

I could see her blushing.

I sniff the fragrance coming from her hair. The smell of lily.

It was something I have never felt before. The feeling I had while being close to her was absolutely heartwarming.

I could spend my lifetime staying in this position.

Am I exaggerating?

Maybe, a little.

Hey guys, I hope you enjoyed this chapter.
