Chapter 10
It was one evening late autumn when Hanna was playing the piano and Frodo was watching her from an armchair near the fire. He loved to watch her slender fingers press gently on each key to make the piano sing. He loved to watch her mouth move in time to the music but most of all he loved to watch her eyes as she played. They looked deep and soulful yet a distant void at the same time. It fascinated him and made him fearful at the same time. She would occasionally look up and grace him with a smile. But this was very rare and he treasured every time that she did.
It was the second time that evening that she had done this and as she did he stood up and walked towards her. She looked up into his face confused.
"Hanna, I have a confession to make." She nodded in encouragment whilst still playing the piano. "According to Sam I cannot dance." He chuckled. "I have seen you dance with Elanor many times. Might it be possible for you to teach me?" He asked somewhat timidly.
"Dance? To- together?" she stuttered. He nodded mutely. "Of course Frodo." He took her by the hand and led her to the centre of the lounge. "This is a traditional folk dance." She place one had on his shoulder and held the other outwards. They began to waltz quickly through the many rooms and their laughter echoed through the halls.
Once Frodo had gotten the hang of this dance and a couple other similar dances Hanna decided to teach Frodo a slower dance. She began to hum a slow and lazy tune. When Frodo did not move his hands she moved them herself. She placed his right hand on her shoulder and slowly, almost timidly moved his left onto her waist. Instincts took over him and he led the slow waltz pulling her closer. She looked into his blue eyes and unconsiously smiled at him. He smiled back warmly. She enjoyed the warmth that radiated from him,and the movement of his hips moving against hers through her many skirt layers. She shut her eyes and continued to hum. As she opened them again she realised that they had stopped moving and that Frodo was staring intently at her. She had never been looked at like that before. He looked as if she was his prey and it made her uncomfortable. She decided instantly that she did not like it. She pulled away and shut the piano lid.
"I think thats enough for tonight, I feel tired now." She smiled at the floor weakly before scuttling off to her bedroom.
Frodo winced as he heard Hanna's bedroom door shut loudly. He cursed under his breath and tried to work out what had just happened. He thought back to how close they were and how quickly she had changed from a comforting warmth to a hostile, cold being. He looked out the window and shut the curtains. He opened the front door quietly and vacated the house. He ran towards the small river whilst stripping off before plunging into the icy waters in the hopes to relieve his painful errection.
