Everyone eventually made it to the dance. Many people were there students and teachers alike. Anakin looked over to see Crimson offering his hand to Penny. Anakin smiles at the sight. Before looking to his left to see Blake holding onto his arm.
"You ready?" Anakin asks. Blake smiles lightly with a slight blush.
"Yes." She says
As the two approach they see Yang at a podium greeting the guests. She quickly noticed the two and her smile widened.
"Oh you two look Lovely together!" She shouts making Blake blush madly and Anakin chuckle nervously.
"Thanks I guess." Anakin says. "You here alone?"
Yang's smile deflates. "Y-yeah. It's fine though." She says unconvincingly.
Anakin noticed her change in mood. "Hey. Who knows. Maybe you'll meet someone inside?" Anakin suggests. It earns a smile from the blond brawler.
"Thanks Skyguy, maybe your right." She says. Anakin's jumped slightly mind went back to his old padawan, but he shook those thoughts away for now. Yang didn't seem to notice, but Anakin's slight jump didn't go unnoticed by Blake. She decided she would ask later.
When the two went in a vary elegant song was playing. Perfect for dancing. Anakin looked to Blake with a soft smile and a raised eyebrow. "Care to dance my lady?" He asks teasingly.
Blake rolls her eyes with a smile. "Sure." She agrees. Anakin grabs hold of one hand while placing his other around her waist as Blake places her free hand upon his shoulder. With that they slowly sway their way along with the music.
Anakin could tell that she wasn't all to accustomed to this style of dancing but she knew the basics. "Your a great dancer." Blake complements.
"Thanks, your not so bad yourself." He returns.
Blake gave him a look. "Really, cause I've stepped on your toes twice now." She points out teasingly.
"Hey, your doing better than Rex." He says gesturing his head over to said guy who was looking down at his feet trying to keep from stepping on Lilly's toes, but judging from her expression he had already done just that.
Blake saw this and giggles lightly. "I suppose." She says turning her beautiful golden yellow eyes back Towards Anakin's sky blue ones. "Thank you."
"For what?" Anakin asks.
"For saving me from myself yesterday." She looks away slightly.
"Hey." He says in a soft tone getting her to look him in the eyes once more. "You've got nothing to be ashamed about. Everyone has their highs and lows, and It's up to the people around them to help steer them back on track."
Blake smiles to this, a faint blush on her cheek. She seems to think about something for a moment. Then she quickly leans in giving him a quick peck on the lips.
"My hero." She says. Anakin blushes at the quick action but a smile comes across his face. His attention then gets side tracked for a moment as he sees Rex giving a ever knowing smirk and a not so discrete thumbs up before returning his hand to his partners waist.
Anakin chuckles lightly to himself before turning his attention to Blake. "So... dose this mean I have a shot, or that were a thing?" He asks with a sheepish smile.
Blake giggles. "So long as your okay with the skeletons in my closet."
Anakin chuckles. "I'm fine with that so long as your okay with mine."
Blake giggles again. "To redemption?"
"To redemption." Anakin nods. After a moment though Anakin speaks up once again. "Though I think I've got more skeletons than you." He says.
