Tango After Twenty

The waltz, taking advantage of tilting heads; she wouldn't have to look at me, I wouldn't see her disinterest.

Next, the salsa; complicated, surreal, overwhelming. And we can't get enough.

But it's the tango that pulled us together. The need for contact, constant seduction and power play that made our dance sweeter.

That's why after twenty years, I still don't know what drove her away, what made her give up. I refuse to burn my dancing shoes, keeping our medals over the fireplace and ignoring Clark's sympathetic looks.

It takes two to tango…and I'm still waiting for my partner.

Still waiting for Chloe.
