(Ezra's POV)

  The night had just started, and yet it felt like I had been here forever. As the next song came on, Sabine led me into a dance. Almost in a trance, my feet began to copy her patterns and rhythm. The song wasn't exactly slow either. Many of the couples were dropping out and retreating to the sidelines of the dance floor, exhausted and trying to catch their breath. The tempo kept getting faster and faster, until only the two of us remained.

  But I barely noticed any of the people gathering to watch us. I was focused on something far more amazing, far more beautiful. Sabine Wren. The girl I had been obsessing over since the moment I laid eyes on her. I still couldn't believe that this was really happening.

I couldn't really dance, but somehow being with her was making my feet soar and glide. She must be able to dance from all her experience being a countess. I longed to just kiss her, but I knew that was uncalled for. Especially with everyone watching us.

But before I could even continue, I felt her lips on my cheek. I looked back at her, blushing more than a ripe cherry jogan. Then, I smiled and pulled her in for a kiss. Our lips met, and the crowd cheered. And our feet had never stopped moving to the rhythm.

If this is a dream, never wake me up.

Sorry, I know I haven't updated in a while, but now I am out of school and I will be able to update much more during the summer. Sorry this one was so short, I am also working on writing an original musical, and that is taking up a lot of my time. If you have any suggestions, please let me know.
