"Hi Charity, Kay." Miguel said softly.
"Hi Miguel." Charity said as she reached out with her other hand and
grabbed Miguel's hand.
Charity took Miguel's hand and placed it over Kays and then let go.
"What are you doing?" Kay asked.
"Something I should have done a long time ago." Charity said firmly.
"Good luck guys." Charity said as she turned and walked away.
Kay and Miguel just stared after her in shock. After a minute Kay looked
down at their intertwined hands and then back up at Miguel. Miguel
looked at her equally confused. Finally he decided to speak.
"Kay."
"Miguel" They both started in at the same time. They laughed at their
nervousness and the ice was broken.
"You want to dance Kay?"
"Sure"
They walked out to the dance floor as an upbeat tempo filled the room.
Just as they were about to dance the DJ switched to a slow song.
Kay looked at Miguel not quite sure what to do next.
Miguel felt a little awkward at the change in songs. But a chance to
hold Kay was a once in a life time chance. He held out his arms and to
his delight she came into them.
As his arms closed around her, Kay felt like she was in heaven. With
great delight she swayed back and forth. This felt so right and she had
missed him so much. But she knew that it wasn't over. They still needed
to talk. She still wasn't entirely sure what Miguel wanted from her and
she could not believe that Charity had given her blessing.
Miguel breathed in deeply inhaling Kay's scent. She was so beautiful and
she smelled so nice Miguel wanted to stay that way forever. But he
needed to talk to her. Tell her how he felt and see if she felt the same
way. He hoped so. He'd die if she didn't.
The song came to an end and Kay pulled back and looked up at Miguel.
"Can we talk?" Miguel asked.
Kay nodded
Hand in hand they walked out the door.
