My legs wobbled, my head spun, the thoughts running through my mind were not those of someone in their right mind. Should I run? Should I stay with this horrid nightmare because my hero was not there to save me? There was no logical though in my entire brain. Everything swirled in a large bowl as a mixer was added to the substance. There was no way I could totally recover from this. There would be no surprise after this.
"April?" A voice asked, nearly awakening me from my trance.
"April, are you going to dance with him or not?" It was my friend, Lizzie.
"NO!" I nearly shouted at her. How could I be such a fool, as to drive away the hero in the story. I was no heroine, how could I conquer this terrible dream!
"I will tell him... Are you sure though?" Lizzie pondered.
"Of course I'm sure, there is no way im going to dance with that!" I said, flipping my hair and turning to work at the counter.
He arrived at the snack counter twice, each time, begging me to dance. But I couldn't, the thought was too painful, the thought of cheating on the one person who might have a chance at fixing my hole of a life.
I worked long and hard for four hours. Writing names, taking money, taking pictures, judging contests, and not one hour went by without the longing pain for my hero. Would he arrive? No.. He was not to come, he would not speak to me if I were to have danced with the rude boy.
