People say that when you see the love of your life for the first time, the whole world just freezes around you. At least that’s what Vanessa’s grandma use to tell her was she was still around. As the dumb teen she was, Vanessa would scoff and giggle at the statement, telling her grandma that couldn’t be true. It was just simply impossible. Well... Vanessa’s grandma must have been laughing her ass off in heaven or something that night because Vanessa fell in love. And she fell hard. Her whole world came to a screeching halt as the man walked into the bar. She couldn’t help but stare at the stranger, take the sight of him in as much as she could. Beautifully tan with dark brown hair and some warm brown eyes to go with that handsome face. She could feel the butterflies growing in her stomach.
Now while Vanessa was checking out this stranger, she hadn’t realized she had been playing the same keys on the piano for quite some time. People were starting to look at her a bit funny and her band was trying to get her back down to her Earth. Vanessa finally snapped out of her tranced as they called her name one last time.
“Hey boys...I think we should change up the songs a bit tonight,” she said to her band as she stood up, “I think we should play some oldies.”
