Love Story | Song by Taylor Swift

I was 15 when I first saw you. I was standing in the balcony, the guards had opened the gates for guests.

The ball was shimmering across the hall, the colorful sight of beautiful ball gowns.

I saw you struggling to make your way through the suffocating crowd.

What an interesting sight to see.

"Hello, my lady. " You said that with a charming smile. I felt butterflies in my stomach.

"You better stay away from Juliette, young man. " said my father with a cold expression on his face.

"A-ah, I'm sorry, Your Majesty. " you said, ready to leave.

"Hahahahahaha, just kidding, welcome to the ball, Prince Romeo. " said my father smiling. "Go on, just pretend I don't exist. "

As my father left to talk with other kings and queens, you were smiling at me.

"How old are you, your highness? " you said.

"Don't you know that it's quite rude to ask a lady how old she is? " I said chuckling. "But to answer your question, I'm 15."

"What a coincidence, I'm 15 too. Shall we be friends, Princess Juliette? " you said.

"I don't see why not *chuckles*" I said happily.

After a few talks, we started to dance. The time flies by too fast.

"Please don't go." I said with a saddened expression.

"I would love to stay, Juliette. But I need to go..." you said with a surprisingly also saddened expression.

We met again 3 years later, we're at the age of marriage now, how fast the time flies.

"J-Juliette, is that you? " you said, delighted with our encounter.

"Romeo, how nice it is to see you again! " I said with the joyful glee on my face.

"It's been so long, how are you doing?"

"Wonderful!! "

My excitement to see you again could be heard just from my voice. Looks like you are my first love after all.

Another ball was hosted by my father, and how happy I was when I heard you were going to be there.

"Prince Romeo, greetings, I hope you enjoyed the ball. " I said.

"Why, of course I enjoyed the party, Princess Juliette. " you said as you winked at me.

We started to catch up, talking about our family dramas, novel, and love stories about people that was separated from the war.

"Romeo, shall we go to my secret hideout? " I said.

"Why, yes!" you said excited.

"Your smile is so beautiful. "

"Thank you! " you said, flustered.

Oh my goodness, I blurted out my thoughts loud. How embarrassing.

"Shall we go to your secret hideout, July? " you said, grinning.

"July? What an interesting nickname, I was nicknamed after a month! *giggles*"

We finally arrived at my so called secret hideout. You dropped your jaw in awe. How cute.

"HOW BEAUTIFUL" you screamed.

"Shhhh, Rom, we're dead if we got caught! " I said, shocked with your sudden scream.

"I-I'm sorry, but Rom is a wonderful nickname! Haha! " you said smiling like a mad man.

We continued to sneak out to see each other, go to town, go on a little date.

My father found out about our relationship.

"Juliette, how could you hide something like this from your own father?!" said my father with a cold expression.

"F-father, I thought you would be against our relationship, I'm truly sorry, Father. " I said, stuttered in anxiousness.

"Well, now I'm against it. You hide something so important like this from your father! "said my father furious.

"No, please! " I said as tears were shed by me.

As I was crying in the staircase, you were getting me up and fixed my dress.

"Don't cry, darling. This love we have is difficult, but it's real, we're getting out of this mess. " you said trying to hold back your tears. "So, wait for me. "

And from that day on, you left me alone. I waited for you. Soon, I was tired of waiting, my faith for you started to fate.

But one day, I met you at the outskirts of town, you said "Juliette, go pick a white dress, I finally completed all the tasks your father gave me in order to marry you. *smiles*"

You get on knees and pull out the ring and said "Marry me, Juliette, you'll never be alone ever again. It's a love story, baby just say that yes... "

Cause we were both young when we first met, it's a love story that I'm willing to sacrifice for.
