Trying Not To Fall

That ballad, when I first saw him eye to eye I knew he was the one, our faces were hidden by masks which made me wonder how he was behind that mask and I could tell that he wanted to know how I'am as well.

We never presented ourselves but I was never going to forget those green eyes of his before I had to leave because I was late. My parents were waiting for me outside in the car and tomorrow was school.

I left him without a word but for some reason I felt that this was just the beginning and that in the near future I'll meet him again.

"Crystal, wait there!" I heard May call out behind me as she catch up with me.

"Hey May, how was vacation?" I ask.

"Amazing" She said, spinning herself. "What about you? How was yesterday's ballad? Met someone?" she asked teasingly while wiggling her eyebrows.

I decided not to respond to that but that told May more than enough. I felt myself blush a little and a smiling forming in the corner of my lips.

"OMG! Spill." She said a wild grin on her face.

"Okay! Calm down" I said with a laugh. "So.. I might've met a guy at the ballad, and we may have danced together a song. But I had to leave early because my parents were waiting for me outside". Saying the last part in a rush.

"What's his name?" she asked.

"Now that you're asking .." I trailed off.

"You don't even know his name?" May shouted, causing people to stare at us.

"I don't know his name, we were just dancing and our eyes were locked. I only remember the look in his eye" I sighed dreamily.

"Someone is in love" she teased "Uhh".

"Shut Up" I told her. "You know I never let someone get too close to me, you know that".

"Just because someone broke your heart once doesn't mean you'll lock yourself in your shell Crystal. Give yourself another chance girl!" she said looking at me.

"I just don't think I'm ready for another relationship. Maybe one day May, but not now."

The bell rang before May could say anything. I wave her goodbye and headed to my class, when I turned and was on my way to dance class a door opened and hit my forehead, of course I lost my balance and fell back on my butt.

Well, that's a nice way to start school, isn't it?

Note the sarcasm.

"I'm so sorry, let me help you" someone said.

I was rubbing at my forehead and had my eyes closed. So I didn't know who he or she was. When I opened them, I met with a guy holding his hand out for me to grab it. When my eyes landed on his eyes, those familiar green eyes that I remember from last night, but wasn't sure about it so I kept that thought in the back of my mind.

"It's fine, don't worry" I said grabbing his hand to get up. "Well, I need to go to class before I'm late, Bye."

"Wait" he said.

I turned around. "Yes?"

"Do you know where dance class is?" he asked. "I'm new in here and I really don't know where it is" he said scratching the back of his neck.

He looked really cute- Woah hold on there Crys. Snap out of it!

"I have dance class right now too. Follow me" I said.

He followed me to dance class which wasn't that far though. We entered to class and all our classmates looked at us. Well, I think mostly at him. I put my bag in a corner and started to warm up and start class. Our dance teacher is Mrs. Anderson.
