Shall We Dance

'This is so dull' Rei thought as girls in colorful dresses twirled past her. Beautiful smiles lit up their faces as they were swept off their feet. The soft music flowed through the air, creating an atmosphere of enchantment.

Rei was standing in a corner, keeping to herself. She didn't know why she came, knowing all too well that guys were too scared of her to ask her for a dance. People began staring at her, whispering in another person's ear. Rei thought that she would be used to people whispering about her by now, but it still hurt.

She decided on leaving, but before she could take a step someone grabbed her hand. She turned around to meet emerald eyes with her violet ones.

"Yaten? I didn't know you were here," Rei said surprised.

"Funny, I didn't know you were here either," he stated.

"Yeah well, I wish I wasn't," she replied, looking around the room.

"Then why are you here?" Yaten asked.

"Actually, I was just about to leave," Rei said. She tried to walk away, but Yaten wouldn't release his grip on her. Instead, he pulled her to the center of the room by her hand. Placing his other hand on her waist, Yaten held her close with no space between them. He lightly smiled at the shock on her pretty face. Rhythmically moving from one foot to the other, he led Rei in a slow dance.

"Yaten, what are you doing?" She asked.

"Isn't it obvious? I am dancing with you," he whispered into her ear.

"I thought you said that you couldn't dance," Rei said, looking into his eyes.

"I said that I wouldn't dance, not that I couldn't."

"Oh."

After a while, he felt her relax into his arms. She laid her head on his shoulder, inhaling his masculine scent. 'This has to be dream' she thought, feeling drowsiness wear her eyes down. Rei completely forgot about the stares and the whispers. For once, she felt happy.

"Hey, don't you fall asleep on me. There is no way that I will carry you all the way home."
