Love Story

Annie Mcandrew first saw him at a mascarade ball her parents were having in honor of her brother's home coming from the war. He, Jacob Dean, fell instantly in love with the beautiful green-eyed, brown curly-haired girl. She talked and laughed to her friends. He heard her laugh and instantly fell in love with the angel. Annie noticed him looking at her and smiled. She started to walk over. He looked strangely familiar. A flashback:

London- at an art museum- he'd worked there and always marveled her paintings. His gorgeous European accent was thrilling, something new, an adventure! They had talked once or twice always about art never about each other. That's what she'd remembered, but even then she knew him from before.

They played in the garden when they were ten. They had fallen in love, but Jacob's dad had shipped him off to London School for Gentlemen. He hoped he would see her again.But it had been years! Eleven years to be exact. Annie probably had moved on. Jacob hoped when she'd see him at the dance she'd remember him.

 He walked toward her; she walked toward him. They started to waltz; it was like nothing had separated them.

    They fell in love all over again, just like when they were ten.
