Girl in White.. How are you??

**I'll be referring to "I" as from Kenji's point of view in life.

Another beautiful day with my beautiful girl Jaylin.. We spent the time at the mall since she loved shopping. She loved wearing tight outfits and mini shorts just covering her butt. I find it so sexy though.. Sexy enough to where I can't help but want her every time.

Jaylin: Kenji.. baee, what are you looking at?

Me: I'm looking at you..

Jaylin: You silly. Well hurry up and come over here and help me pick out a few outfits before I have to get going.

Me: Ok, but babe you look nice in everything.

Jaylin: Really?? Geez, you always say that.. Don't you ever have any opinion or anything? You're no help at all.. Don't even care enough about me to tell me what looks nice and what doesn't. You're so useless..

I became quiet..

Jaylin: Well, don't just stand there. Go ahead and take these to go and pay it. I'll meet you there in 2 minutes...

I walked away....thinking... dang why is she always like that... Why couldn't she just be happy that I'm fine with whatever she wore....I looked at the clothes that she picked out. One of them was a white tubed dress in the length of a high low- longer in the back and shorter in the front just above the knee.... Looking at this dress... my heart stopped and I had a flashback moment..... Where have I seen this dress before??.....

It then clicked and I finally remembered.... This was a dress similar to the one that Oriana wore that last time that I saw her at the New Year Festival...

It was just a little time after I started dating Jaylin. I had the chance to visit Scotty and went back to the New Year Festival where that night.. that night again was when I saw Oriana since the year before when I broke her heart and was with Gigi...

Oriana had straight hair, wore a pair of white heels, her dress was just like this, a high low....the top was sparkling..... The way she looked caught me by surprised to how beautiful she has become...especially in such a short amount of time.

I remember that night so clearly... It was the night I went to the New year Festival... exactly a year after I met Oriana for the first time.

Scotty, a bunch of my brothers and I went to the Night party after the New year festival. We were waiting for our sisters in the hall way right outside the entrance to the dance floor near that bathroom where the New Year Festival dance was held. Scotty was telling me about the girl he had his eyes set on that night. I didn't bother to listen because Jaylin and I just had an argument before I came.. Jaylin was worried that I wouldn't be faithful to her because she knows "what type of guy I was and what type of guy Scotty was.." We weren't like that.. but girls... whatever. So of course before I headed here, she gave me an ear full. I mean don't get me wrong, she's great.. she's super great in bed and her body is sexy as fuck.. but at times I feel like we're there to just fuck and have no love... I'm missing that connection.. that connection of love.

Just as I was thinking about all this stuff, I saw a girl in white walking down the hall towards me. The dress she wore caught my attention... A white high low dress, the top sparkling.. I glanced at this girl... only to be shocked and have my eyes widen that it was Oriana...

Oriana and I caught each other's glance.. our eyes locked for a brief moment... I can literally hear my heart beating and the world seemed to stop and stare at us... everything else was a blur but just having her in my eyesight...

Feeling all these emotions within seconds, Oriana looked away and headed towards the bathroom with Carina and a bunch of other girls.

I was hoping to catch her as she returned from the bathroom but as soon as she got out, another person was waiting for her.,, a few feet away from me near the door... Someone who I've never seen or known before... I overheard their conversation.. I quickly learned the guy's name is Mason.

Mason: Hey Ori! There you are!

Ori: Hi Mason!! I thought you weren't able to make it.

*They hugged.

Mason: Of course I'd come. You know I always do. Are you ready to head on inside? I was looking for you just now but I saw your sister and she said that you came to use the restroom. So I waited here if that's okay.

Oriana smiled and he smiled back.

Oriana then grabbed his arms hooking hers into his and walked into the dance floor leaving me just standing and staring.

My Heart dropped.... Is that her new boyfriend?? I thought...

Seeing the face expression on my face, Scotty walked over and snapped me out of it.

Scotty: Bro, you good?

Me: Yeah.... just Ori.. you know.

Scotty: Don't worry about it. I'm sure that's just a friend.. it's not what you think. Well come on, we're here to have fun. Fuck with or without Ori them, you'll be fine. I'll find you a girl so you forget about Jaylin tonight.

Me: Sure.

We headed inside only to see Oriana on the dance floor slow dancing with Mason.. My heart sunk... I wonder if she even noticed me or even missed me like how I'm missing her right now.. Her smile and her face.. the look she had whenever we skyped... Why am I suddenly missing all of that now.. Its as if Jaylin suddenly disappeared and all I can think about was Oriana..

*An hour later.

I continued watching her as she danced the night away with that guy Mason... why does she look so happy.. Has she really forgotten about me? It's only been a year? Is that really possible? Or is it all just for a show?? I have to find a way to talk to her... I need to. I must..

Just right when I was thinking this, an announcement about a slow song came on and I saw her handing Mason off to her sister and she was heading back to her seat...

This is my chance I thought. I hurried towards her and right before she was able to sit down I reached down and grabbed her hand...

She looked up in surprised as I held her hand in mine..

I finally said, "Ori... Oriana... let's dance."

She refused and said "No," trying to get rid of my grip.

I wouldn't let go.

Oriana: Kenji, let go. Your girlfriend will find out and she'll be mad at you.

Me: No, I need to talk to you.. If you don't go with me now I'll be holding your hand all night and be right here all night.

Oriana: Let me go.

I refused and held her hand tighter.

Oriana: What are you thinking about doing?

Me: I told you already, I want to dance with you. Let me have this dance. I promise only one time. Either that or you'll have to hold my hand all night.

Oriana rolled her eyes and still holding onto her hand, I guided her onto the dance floor just before the song started.

The song title is "Stay with me for a while..."

During this dance she was quiet and didn't look at me at all... Not sure if she was feeling something.. but I was just happy that she was here by me again.. It felt as if it was the first time we've danced again a year ago...

I finally said something...

Me: So, is that guy your boyfriend.

Ori: So if it was? Why does it matter.

Me: It matters because I miss you.

Oriana pulled a little distance away from me and looked at me as I pulled her closer and tighter towards my body.

Ori: Stop it. You never have and never did so why are you now? You already have a girlfriend. Don't you think she'll think of something to have her boyfriend come all this way just to dance with other girls?

Me: No, because she doesn't care what I do and I don't care what she does.

Ori: So much for a nice relationship.. sounds like crap.

Me: No it's good. It means we trust each other.

Ori: Sure. If that's what you say.

Oriana looked away again.

I continued looking at Oriana.

Ori: What?

Me: Nothing.. You're just beautiful in white.

Oriana was speechless.

Me: Oriana, do you miss me? Have you ever thought about me during these times?

Oriana was speechless.

I looked at her... She finally looked at me.

Ori: Why would I miss someone who doesn't even care how things ended and who left me without much closure.

Me: Oriana, it's not what you think. I'm sorry that it happened. But can we not talk about that right now.. I need you to know I've missed you. I missed you a lot. Jaylin is nice and all, but she's not like you.

Ori: yeah.. maybe she wasn't as stupid as me to have truly liked you.

Before I can say anything else, the song finished and Oriana let go of my hand.

Ori: You said just one dance. Now leave me alone.

She left me standing up there on the dance floor as she walked away..

I thought to myself that night.. I need to know how she feels about me. Does she ever miss me? Can I get another chance??

I must try to dance with her again...

However, after that dance, no matter how much I tried I was not able to get another chance with her. Every time I tried, Mason always took her hand onto the dance floor.

Before the night ended, I attempted again when she was sitting alone, finally not with Mason. I approached her hoping to dance and talk with her again... However, as I was just a few feet behind from her, I saw Mason approach her with roses in his hand.

He gave it to her and smiled saying "These are you for."

She accepted them and stood up giving him a hug.

My heart dropped and I returned back to my seat.. only to watch him and her dance again on the dance floor.. his roses in her hands.

The night ended leaving me in the dark and curiosity of if she missed me.

**Back to present day..

Holding this white dress Jaylin wanted me to pay for.. reminded me so much of that night.... I finally thought about Oriana again after such time... Girl in white.. how are you??
