The first meet

That was a special December 25th, snowing heavily, the city turned into white, clean and quiet. There are some choirs sang Christmas songs on the streets, the beautiful voices could be heard everywhere, just like a great poem only for that place. The whole city was in happiness, waiting for the New Year.  That night, the school had a Christmas party for the students who didn’t go back home. The party held in the school’s auditorium, students could eat the delicious foods and dance at the party. She was in a white dress that night. Because of the homesickness, she just sited at the corner and tasted the wine, looking at the snow slowly drifted down from the deep blue sky. When Edward came to the party, bright songs reechoed in the auditorium, part of the students were dancing happily. He looked around seeking for his friends, and then he saw a girl in white sitting beside the window with sad on her face, didn’t fit in with these people. Suddenly, a boy called him, and that was Nick. He went toward Nick, there were so many of his friends drinking wine and talking with each other. He also talked with them, their topics relating to winter break and part-time job. He thought about the girl he saw before. When he looked at the window to find her, he found that no one there. He wondered where she is. He looked at the crowded people wanted to find her, just liked a dream, no her. Then he was a little upset in his heart. He just listened to his friends pretending there was nothing. Then he saw her again. She walked slowly into the corner, beautiful and elegant.  “Who is she?”, he asked one of his friend. The guy said that he did not know. “Maybe you can invite her to dance with you, and then you ask her.” He said with smile on his face,  “You are interested at her, right?” Then his friend laughed loudly, Edward just smiled. He put down the glass cup and went to the girl. A beautiful song was played, people all sank into the happiness. “Could I invite you to dance?” He asked with smile on his face. With surprise, she looked at him without a word, after second’s silence she said ok. Then they waited for the next song. When the music began, they danced and talked with each other. He knew her name was Emma and he found she is a special girl, outgoing but also quiet. They talked happily, just like old friends. After the song, they continued their talk beside the window. She said thanks to him. That was their first meet. He loved her at the first sight.
