I blushed as I took his hand, nodding, "I would love to."
However, it was only after we were on the dance floor did I remember that I hadn't even practiced it at least once.
Before anxiety could grip me again, a hand pulled me by my waist, one of my hands in his and the other on his shoulder. He leaned in towards as he whispered, "Just follow my lead."
He took a step to right, and so did I. When he came back to the original position, I came back too. Then he moved left, backward and twirled me around after a few repetitions, and I laughed at how many times I stepped on him, apologizing every time.
We shared a few more steps, till the song ended, laughing along at nothing, swaying away to the beautiful music as if the night was ours, and just ours.
