"It's time to take this a little slower, dudes! This next song will be a slow song and our guest of honor will be dancing with someone!" Alfred's voice chimed out through the place.

You looked around nervously. You weren't exactly the most skilled when it came to dancing.

You gave a sheepish look when every country, who was in the room, was staring at you. You gave Emil a pleading look that said 'help me' but he just seemed to be off in a different world. He had a barely visible pink, dusting his cheeks as he was lost in thought. You had no idea what he was thinking but it definitely wasn't going to help you with the dancing situation.

You looked around again to see someone emerge from the large crowd of people. He shyly walked over to you with a small tint of pink on his cheeks and a shy smile. He looked really flustered and you swore you could see the little clouds of shyness, radiate off of him. He stood before you with his hands behind his back and was avoiding eye contact with you, as if you were going to reject him.

"Um. Privet (Y/N). I was wondering if you would like to dance?" He asked with his face going red. He's really adorable when he acts shy... you thought. You smiled up at the tall man.

"I would love to, Ivan." You say. He brings his hands in front of him and starts to twiddle with his thumbs, with a sad smile.

"Da, I thought so, I-" He pauses and had a look of confusion written on his face. "Wait... Did you say yes?" He asks in bewilderment. You giggle and nod your head.

"Yeah. Of course I did. I would love to dance with you." You say with a shy smile to confirm his question.

He stands there in shock for a second and then grins. He gently took your hand and lead to the middle of the room. You stand on tippy toes and wrap your arms around his neck. Honestly you really has no idea of what your doing, you're just following what people do in sappy romantic movies with dance scenes.

He gently place his hands around your waist. The song 'A Thousand Years' plays and you both start to slow dance. Good thing this wasn't a dress up party. I would be tripping in heels. You thought.

Everyone was either shooting jealous looks or looks of udder horror at the thought of Ivan possibly hurting you.

((Ivan's POV:))

I was so surprised she said yes. I really thought she would shun me away or run away in fear. It seems that everyone's scared of me and I don't know why, but she seems to show no indication of fear. It really makes me happy at possibly being able to have a friend as sweet and kind as her.

I gently took her hand and lead her to the middle of the room. I felt like the happiest man on earth. I was almost too embarrassed to even walk up to her, much less ask to dance, but I couldn't bare the thought of having someone else dancing with someone as beautiful and delicate like her.

She gets on her tippy toes and reaches around my neck and I gently place my hands around her waist. I'm so scared that I might hurt her. She's like a fragile sunflower in my eyes, and I don't want to accidently break her because I was too rough. I feel like she must be protected at all costs.
