The line, "We dance together all night. On the car ride home, I sit in his lap, and I fall asleep thinking about him," made me go "Awwww."

A great lesson on the need to get in touch with your inner goddess more often!

Very nice descriptions. I love the empowerment of the costume. The way you put the line, "And someone's noticed." all by itself makes it so powerful and important.

Thank you! I am glad my descriptions worked, it was important for me to be able to try and convey both memories with as much precision as possible. That moment for me was very powerful and important so hearing that it translated into my writing is encouraging :)
