Chase your fate

chapter 29

She smiled at him, feeling a little embarrassed by his comment "God no.. Chase.. no.. just." he interrupted her "Just nothing Dev... look around... this is the best that any of them will ever look.. and you know what.. Not even on their best day, do they compare with you." he grinned.  She smiled at him, taking her glasses off and putting them on his face "I think you need these more than I do.".  He smirked back, putting them back on her face "Nah.. because obviously they don't work.. or you'd be able to see it for yourself.". 

They heard Kiira squeal over the loud music as she made her way across the room, almost dragging Ethan by the hand.  "Oh my god Devyn.. you look so beautiful! ... And Chase... not bad for a farm boy." she smiled over at him.  "Aww... thanks Kiira... and you don't look half bad for a babysitter." he laughed back.  She smiled, putting her hand on her hip "Ha.. jokes on you.. everybody knows that no one can resist the babysitter." "I know I can't" Ethan growled as he wrapped his arms around her from behind, hugging her closely.  Natalie and her boyfriend were already on the dance floor with a crowd of his friends, moving like a group of backup dancers in a hip hop video.  "So... mister twinkle toes..." Devyn said "you gonna show me how this is done?".  He looked over and laughed.  "To this? .. No.. I can't dance to this.".

Ethan let go of Kiira, sliding over to Chase with his best Usher impersonation and hung on his side like a stripper to her pole "Come on Chase.. just .. feel the music.. move with me.." he laughed.  Chase pushed him off laughing.  "Oh no.. you twerk yourself over there on Kiira.".  "Chase.. I'm hurt.. deeply." he grinned back as Kiira took his hand rolling her eyes.  Chase looked back at Ethan grinning "Don't worry darlin.. I'll save the last dance for you." "LIES!" "Probably.. I wouldn't want Kiira getting jealous.. cuz we both know..." "Oh.. shut up Chase..." Kiira laughed "This.. this right here.. is why you don't have friends..."

The song ended, and the song 'Wanted' by Hunter Hayes began to play.  The crowd broke off into couples as Chase took Devyn's hand "This.. this I can dance to.. May I have this dance?" "Be gentle with me..." she smiled as he led her to the edge of the dance floor.  He looked into her eyes as he placed his right hand just above her hip, feeling her arms begin to wrap around his neck.  He let his left hand slide down her right arm, resting at the small of her back as they began to move slowly to the music.  He held her close to his chest, feeling her lay her cheek against his shoulder.  It took him a moment to adjust to dancing with a partner that was taller than him, luckily, it wasn't by enough to matter. 

He held her close to his body, feeling her breasts against his chest as he held her tightly.  He could tell that she was nervous, by the way her movements seemed forced, and a little unsteady.  He leaned into her ear and whispered "Relax Devyn... just ... let me lead you, and stop looking at your feet..".  She finally looked up into his eyes, slightly fearful "I.. I just don't want to step on you... I ... I want this to be perfect.".  He smiled, pulling her tighter against his body "You're here ... dancing with me.. it couldn't be more perfect.".  She sighed, resting her cheek against his "hey .. guess what.." "What?" "Shuddup.".  He felt her smile as she lightly kissed his cheek.  Holding her tightly, he began to lead her in soft, slow movements.  They could feel each other's breath on the sides of their necks as he gently swayed her body along to the rhythm of the song as he quietly, almost in a whisper sang into her ear in his soft voice "I just wanna wrap you up, wanna kiss your lips I... I want to make you feel wanted.. I wanna call you mine.. wanna hold your hand forever... never let you forget it.... I wanna make you feel wanted...."

She felt as though she were floating on a cloud, held up from the earth by the strength of his arms.  Never in her life, had she ever felt so beautiful, so safe, so.... loved.  She closed her eyes, surrendering to his leading, feeling their bodies so close, the warmth of his breath, the comfort of his embrace.. It felt.. like home.. only better.  He moved her body with his, gracefully, simply moving in small soft steps till the song ended.
