Do You Trust Me?

The Dance

"Would you care to dance?" I asked looking into his blue eyes. He was quiet for a moment seeming deep in thought. " I am not sure. I don't think I am any good." I rolled my eyes and grabbed his arm trying to pull him up. " Come on Ravine, you'll be okay. I'll teach you." I said to Ravine. He looked up at me and started to get on to his feet.

"Alright now, put your arm here..." I placed one of his hands on my hip. " and the other here." I took his other hand and slid my fingers through his " I am not sure about this Iris." "It's okay if you don't know how to dance, but you are never going to learn if you sit there and look at nothing."

We started moving, but it felt like I was trying to move a big sack of potatoes. " It's okay Ravine, clam down." I reassured him rubbing his arm. He stopped dancing and looked down at his feet. " I can't do this without music." He told me sounding like he was about to cry. " You don't need music. Just listen to all the sounds around you and you'll hear music." We stood still for a moment and starting to hear the faint sound of pitter-patter. I looked up and felt a few drops of water land on my face.

I looked at Ravine with wide eyes and started to laugh as it began to rain harder. "Hold still. When you hear the music...start to dance." I said to Ravine as I closed my eyes. Listening to the rain trying to find that song that wants to be heard. I could feel the wind touch my face as it went by. I could hear the loud rain trying to let me hear it's hidden song, and I felt my body move.

I opened my eyes to see Ravine moving our bodies to the song in the rain. I smiled and moved my body to dance with him. We danced and danced, laughing as we jumped around the meadow. Adoring the rain as it kiss upon our skin, and moving our bodies to the song we had never heard. For this type of music can not be played by any instrument, but can only be played by our hearts.

The song with hidden notes that every great musician wish they could bring to life. This song you share with the world.

Ravine, Sebastian, and myself danced though it all. As the thunder roared throughout the town, we danced. As the wind got colder, we danced. As the rain cried down upon us, we danced. As every little thing that would make someone want to stop had happened, but we continued to dance.

Though the day had ended, nothing in the world would ever make me stop dancing to the hidden song of the world. The song that made me feel love. True love.
