“Since my brother was too stupid to realize he had the chance to dance with a pretty girl, why don’t you dance with me instead?” he asked.“What?” she said, genuinely surprised. “The ball is over.”
“So?” he said, throwing the dress robes he held to the side and offered her his hand. “We can do it right here.”
“Okay,” she said tentatively and grabbed his hand allowing him to pull her up.
She shuffled closer to him. One hand in his and the other shyly resting on his shoulder.
“There’s no music,” she whispered, looking up into his warm brown eyes. Their proximity made his tawny colored freckles stand out all the more against his pale skin.
“Don’t worry about that,” he said, gripping her waist and pulled her closer to him.
