Chapter Eight
The sounds of music drifted to them far before they reached the Dancing Square. It was a fast and pounding rythm. A
chant of some sort reached Marle's ears. She frowned slightly and tried to make out what it was. " Jurrasic rythm...Jurrasic
rythm...."
She frowned again. Definately different from the music she was used to. She was accustomed to listening to operas and
symphonies and the like, and compared to this odd, new music, they were sadly old fashioned and dreary.
She sighed softly. Then again, she had always thought that of the elegant court dances and balls and orchestras
anyway.
" Am I really that boring?" Crono teased.
Marle shook her head no. It wasn't him, it was just every time she thought of home it got her down.
Crono joked around a bit more, but Marle only half listened. By the time they reached the Dancing Square, she was so
lost in her thoughts that she hardly noticed the music at all.
And then, Crono squeezed her hand. Lightly, true, but it it still sent a wave of excitement through her. " Oh God."
Thought Marle. How many times was she supposed to feel this dizzy, heart pounding feeling?
" Coming?" He asked her. Marle shook her head, and Crono took it the wrong way. " No?"
" N-No! Of course I'm coming." Marle said quickly. She looked at the crowd gathered around the stage and felt
slightly nervous. What if one of them recognized her? What if-? No, she wasn't going to let thoughts like that ruin her time
at the fair. Let them see her, but she knew one thing. She was out to have a good time today, and that's exactly what she
planned to do.
She eagerly jumped forward. " Come on!" She laughed.
Crono smiled at her. Then he started dancing and wow, Marle was impressed. He was a very good dancer.
At first, however, Marle wasn't sure what to do. Did she dance around in circle? Should she swing her hips? Would it
be alright if she- Finally, Marle simply decided to watch the woman on the stage, who was clearly the lead performer, and
follow her movemonts.
Marle became so absorbed in the dancing that she failed to take notice in anything else. Left, right, rotate hips,
fling arms out, and then gracefully come to a halt.
However, she did notice the burst of applause when she finished.
Marle blushed at the cheers and whistles. Where these people really clapping for her? She turned to Crono, a shy
smile spreading across her face at his awed expression. Then she faced the crowd again and her heartbeat seemed to stop.
There, in the amidst the many faces in the crowd, was Mary.
A/N~ Sorry if this one is so short! Like I said, got writers block.
