"dance with me."

he hadn't even noticed the man approach him. "what?"

"dance with me." he motioned with his hand. "we're literally the only people not dancing. cmon."

"i don't know how to dance."

"i do."

the man grabbed his arm and pulled him forward, away from the sidelines of the ballroom. they were still in a corner, away from the large crowd. a slow waltz had just come on, not that changbin was able to recognize that, and slowly everyone had found a partner to dance with.

"do you want to lead?" the man asked.

"lead?"

"in a partner dance there's a person who leads and a person who follows."

"you know what you're doing. you should lead."

changbin wasn't quite sure why he was going along with what the man said. he had come as a plus one to his friends felix and hyunjin, who had abandoned him on the ballroom floor. then the man placed his hand on changbins waist and he supposed there were worse ways to be spending his night.

"put your hand on my shoulder."

"which hand?"

"left."

changbin put his hand on the man's shoulder, so gentle that he glanced at the hand before continuing.

"now place your right hand in my left."

the man was holding his left hand up, bent slightly to the side so changbin could easily grab it. once again, he placed his hand softly against the man's, who in turn squeezed his hand and smiled.

"a waltz has three steps. for me, it's forward, left, together. for you, it will be back, right. together. i'm going to step my right foot forward, and you will step your left foot back. okay?"

changbin nodded and looked down at his feet. the man stepped forward and changbin stepped back, slow and clumsy.

"good. now step to the side."

changbin followed the man's lead and stepped to the side.

"and then feet together."

the two brought their feet together and changbin looked up, meeting the smiling eyes of the man.

"wanna try it a little faster?"

the man didn't wait for a response and instead stepped forward again. changbin reacted in time and the two repeated the combination a few times.

"good. let's try it with the music."

they listened for a moment. changbin closed his eyes to find the beat and he could feel the man tapping his fingers against his waist as he also tuned into the music.

"ready?"

changbin nodded, and they were off. as promised, the man lead changbin across the ballroom. he pulled him along, eyes never leaving his face as he repeated the steps with ease and grace. changbin was continuing glancing down at his own feet, scared he would mess up their rhythm.

he didn't even realize the man had lead them to the center of the ballroom as they danced. he turned changbin with ease and they spun as they danced, catching the eyes of plenty other party goers.

within the crowd changbin spotted his friends, who looked at him in confusion and amusement. he looked back to the man in front of him, who smiled softly and turned them to the side once more.
