The candles around the room created a dreamy feeling. I was the awe of the ball. I spun with everyone who took my hand. Many men, counts, and more wanted me. But none stuck with me. I hardly remember half the names I heard that night. I was scanning across the ballroom, and I saw him, pass the stairs. His eyes met mine. Something happened inside me. I blindly walked to him. He took my hand, gave a bow, and kissed my hand. My heart fluttered. Whoever he was, he captured my heart. He led me out to the dance floor. I just kept looking at him. He twirled me around, and around. His hand on mine felt right. Like we belonged together. I never wanted to leave his embrace. Then, he vanished. Like he was there one moment, gone the next. I cried, even though I just met him, I cried.
My alarm buzzed, playing Blue Stone Alley. I was in my bed. I stretched. The other side of the bed was empty, just as it has been for a while now. I looked at a picture, the man in my dream was there, along with two rings. One was mine one was his. His was on a necklace. "I had a dream about you again," I told the picture. I got dressed, put the necklace on, and put his photo face down. 
I looked to the sky, "I love you." A silent tear fell down my cheek.
