Epilogue 3

After saying goodbye to scott, avi and Mitch were on their way to the dance.

"I'm so happy we finally get to dance again" mitch said after a moment of silence.

"me too" avi replied. "i cannot wait to sway over the dance floor with you. I even doubt that there will be much drinking and talking tonight, I am so eager..." 

Mitch giggled. "I don't mind..." 

The driver stopped in front of the dancing school they usually went to and the couple went inside.

"Mitch and Avi, I'm so glad you made it" Angelica, the owner and their dancing teacher greeted them immediately.

"Yeah, it's been a while" Mitch replied. "I'm kinda scared that I forgot half of the steps..."

"Oh believe me, you didn't" Angelica said. "Just dance, let Avi lead you and it all comes back. And if you have issues, just let me know, my colleagues and I are around all night."

"Thank you, Angelica. Once we're back from promo tour and everything, we definitely need to come back for a few lessons with you" Avi said. 

"Sure, I would love that. You know the drill, just let me know when you're free and willing and we'll find some time together or maybe with a group? We have quite a few workshops coming up, they're all one day things" Angelica offered.

"Uh, that sounds lovely" Avi replied. "We'll definitely look into them. 

"You do that. Just grab a leaflet on your way out or look the dates up online" Angelica replied and smiled at some other guests who were just arriving. "For now, enjoy the night, dance as much as your feet can handle and if your get stuck, let me know. Have fun."

"Thank you." Avi took Mitch's hand and together they went to the cloakroom where they got rid of their jackets and changed into their proper dancing shoes. 

"Table, drink, dance?" Mitch asked as they made their way back into the ballroom. 

"The same procedure as every time, Love" Avi replied with a grin on his face. "What are you having?"

"White wine and a bottle of water to share" Mitch replied. "Thank you."

"You're welcome." Avi leaned down and pecked Mitch's lips before he went away to get their drinks while Mitch sat down at one of the little tables right next to the dancefloor. The dance was slowly getting started, only a few people were dancing. 

"Here we are. White wine and water" Avi said and put a cooler with two bottles on the table. "I'll be back with glasses in a moment." 

"A whole bottle of white?" Mitch asked. "Wanna get me drunk?" 

Avi chuckled. "No... but I felt like having wine tonight, too and sharing a bottle is more convenient..."

"That's true" Mitch said as he poured both of them a glass of the sweet white wine. "To us and to this dance."

"To us, Love." Avi added and they both took a sip of their wine.

Just in that moment, the music changed into a song they both knew and loved. Like a true gentleman, Avi got up and offered Mitch his hand. "May I have this dance?"

"Always" Mitch replied and put his hand into Avi's as he got up.

Once on the dancefloor, they got into position and started dancing.

As always, Avi was completely mesmerised by the way Mitch moved. He let himself be lead by Avi and danced all the steps and figures almost effortlessly.
