The blonde yelped slightly as she tripped. Jack sighed, drawing out a heavy breath out of his mouth. He looked down at her smiling though, still humming low and relaxing the tune they were moving to; the last thing he wanted was for her to get discouraged and give up.

The pair stumbled, this time actually falling down. Jack looked down at her as a nervous laugh coming from the blonde while the spirit said nothing. He merely sighed and smirked a little at her flushed face as he got off of her and pulled her up from the floor. The moon grew higher in the sky as he taught her how to dance. At least she wasn't almost killing him now!

"Don't look down at your feet." Jack kept telling her. "Loosen up a little!" She looked up at him, green eyes wide as she marveled at the way he guided her across the room. It made her mind go blank and her heart race. And just when she thought she was getting it…

Rapunzel stumbled again; the fifth time since they've began. Jack merely chuckled, never growing tired of it since they began two hours ago. Her mother was away, was going to be away for a few more days, so he thought of keeping her company. The topic of dancing had then suddenly come up, and a smirk formed over the spirit's features as he led her to the open area by the window and began humming a random tune.

She grew more frustrated with each minute that passed, even though she was slowly getting the hang of it. The frown that was on the blonde's face slowly faded away at the spirit's boyish grin as he hummed the tune, holding her close as he led her around the floor, hand on her waist and the other one clutching hers tenderly. Rapunzel would have smiled again, had her ankle not have bent awkwardly and caused her to trip once more.

The guardian blinked when he felt her rip away from him, groaning as she covered her face with her hands. "It's no use," she mumbled.

"Aww, Rapunzel! You can't be serious! You were doing terrific!" she merely glared as his plea, eyes ever so slightly turning red around the rims as they began to water up.

"Don't lie to me, Jack!" her frown grew. "It's just no use!"

Jack pursed his lips, sighing heavily as she mentally beat herself up over being a klutz. She blinked when she felt her hand being taken into his as he gently pulled her towards him, a soft look on his face under the moonlight.

"I'll be seeing you, in all of the old familiar places." He sang quietly, his voice low as he carried out the tune. Rapunzel stared at him in astonishment, forgetting that they were dancing for a moment as they stared into each other's eyes. "That this heart of mine embraces; all day and through."

A small smile crept onto her face that grew wider as her eyes softened. The blonde loosened her limbs now, completely relaxed in Jack's arms as he swayed with her. "In that small café, the park across the way, the children's carousel, the chestnut trees, the wishing well."

Her head gradually came to rest on his chest, inhaling his dizzying scent of winter and pine trees as his voice crooned to her, his serenade being the only thing on her mind. "I'll be seeing you in every lovely summer's day, in everything that's light and gay; I'll always think of you that way."

Rapunzel looked up at him with half-lidded eyes. His ice blue eyes that were half way open seemed to twinkle back at her. Jack pulled her slightly closer to him, fingers intertwining in his other hand and hers. She gripped his shoulder slightly tighter. "I'll find you in the morning sun, and when the night is new; I'll be looking at the moon, but I'll be seeing you,"

Both of them shared a breath as their foreheads touch. She finally learned how to dance.
