"I can't believe we are here...How did we get here again, DJ?" Angela giggled in the direction of one of her very best friends. Angela was a vision that night, and she was sure to have made every preperation. She wanted to be stunning, to be the belle of the ball. Though she wasn't a celebrity, it made no matter. She was absolutely beautiful.

"I don't know, Ang, to be here at the premiere party for Jack of All Trades....how DID we get here," DJ answered back, "You look so great tonight, hun," she smiled. Angela's gown stretched to the floor, flowing over her curves...midnight blue had a way of bringing out the sparkle in her eyes, and if she could come face to face with her dream, that is exactly what she would want, for JC to see her. Not just recognize her as a beautiful woman, but to truly see her. She wanted to captivate him, and no one could blame her for setting out on her mission. This was a once in a lifetime chance. If love at first sight were possible, Angela wanted to show JC just how that feeling could take over.

"Please be seated," a voice sounded throughout the room, "I am the executive producer of the movie, and I hope that you will all enjoy..." A man stood on a stage before the huge crowd, and Angela and DJ glanced the room over, inside desperate to see just who they had went to this party for. The man continued, "Our guests of honor are here, please give a round of applause to the amazingly talented group, *N Sync." Applause roared through the room, and Angela felt her heart drop instantly. Everyone stood to their feet, and the guys entered the room, shaking hands with people at each table.

Angela focused on JC, in a beige suit, complimented with a blue high collared shirt. He was more of a vision than she imagined. DJ whispered, "Girl they are headed right for our table," she couldn't help but giggle.

"Hi," JC smiled and gave his normal polite nodding of the head as he grab a hold of Angela's hand, shaking it firmly. Her eyes met his, and everything she had ever felt for him rushed forward into her eyes. She held his gaze.

**********

Soft heavenly eyes gazed into me

Transcending space and time

And I was rendered still

There were no words for me to find at all

As I stood there beside myself

I could see you and no one else

When I saw you

When I saw you

I could not breathe, I feel so deep

When I saw you

When I saw you

I'd never be, I'd never be the same

**********

JC went on his way, glancing back just once to the eyes that had captivated him. When the room was seated, DJ leaned over to her friend.

"Angela," she shrieked with excitement, trying to remain quiet, "What did you do? He was so staring at you...it was like ya'll were in another world," she beamed.

"Uh huh," Ang smiled just slightly, in her own world, her eyes still focused on the gorgeous man that sat side stage. **He is gorgeous** she thought.

"Ladies and gentleman, we are so glad that you could all be here this evening. Now we will clear the floor so that you can grab a partner and have a dance," the entertainment coordintator smiled brightly, "Find someone and hold 'em tight," she grinned once again.

"Oh Deej, I wanna dance with him," Angela said to DJ, never once taking her eyes off of JC.

"Go ask, he had his eye on you," DJ responded with a smile, sure that JC would accept her offer to have a dance, "You may never have this chance again," she reminded.

"Oh I could never," Angela giggled, playfully hitting her friends arm when she felt a gentle tap on her shoulder.

Angela turned when she saw the reddenned look on her best friend's face. There before her stood JC, with a nervous smile. Her heart rate quickened, and she felt her face become a sweet blushing shade of red.

"Hi, I'm JC," he extended his hand out to her once again.

Angela smiled, "I'm Angela, it's a pleasure," she smiled, standing up to meet his eyes. In his eyes, she could see more than she ever would have begun to imagine.

"May I?" JC bowed his head and motioned towards the dance floor, "It would be an honor," he smiled, "And I would love to have a dance, Angela," he spoke her name softly and the sound of her name escaping his ever so sweet lips left her weak in the knees.

"You sure have a way with words," she giggled, taking a hold of his arm as he escorted her out on the floor.

"As you have a way with your beautiful eyes," he returned a smile and charmed her completely.

**********

Only once in a lifetime love rushes in

Changing you with the tide

And dawn's ribbon of light

Bursts through the dark

Wakening you inside

And I thought it was all untrue

Until there all at once I knew

**********

Angela had imagined what it would feel like to be in the arms of this man over a million times, but no day dream could measure up to this feeling. In this moment, every expectation was surpassed. He was a dream come true, and though only a few words were spoken, so much more had been said. She felt comfortable and right there in JC's arms, and rested her head on his shoulder. His hands moved slowly up and down her back, and he was the essence of comfort. He was everything she had ever wanted, as it seemed. She wanted to show JC love at first sight, but perhaps it had been the other way around. JC was showing Angela love at first sight, and she had wondered if he could have ever known. Thoughts raced through her mind. He felt so good to her, and she could only hope that she made him feel remotely the same. She closed her eyes, listening to the music. The two were so light on their feet and flawless that it seemed that they were meant to dance together, made to be partners in some majestic type way. She smiled to herself, never knowing that he, too, in that moment was all smiles.

**********

With no beginning and

Without an end

You are the one for me

It's evident

And your eyes told me so

Your eyes let me know...

**********

Before Angela and JC had known it, the song had ended. Angela backed up just a bit to find those angel eyes once more.

"Thank you," he smiled, his eyes shining.

"Thank you," she replied back, beaming at him.

"I'm glad I asked for this dance, perhaps we can have a seat, get to know each other?" he raised his eyebrows with a boyish grin forming.

"Perhaps," she giggled, leading him to a table. This was clearly the start of something amazing. Mission accomplished.

**********

When I saw you

When I saw you

I could not breathe, I feel so deep

When I saw you

When I saw you

I'd never be, I'd never be the same
