Thanx: SMG, DB & Co as always -- nothing more to say!
Author’s Note: Apologies in advance -- another product of my retro evening! Lyrics in Italics
All conversation fades as I see him across the room. Before I can question my actions I am on my feet and heading towards him.
"Hi."
He looks at me and then into me. His soul greets mine. I don’t know if he’s even aware he’s doing it.
"Hi."
"I’ve missed you."
"You too."
This was painful. I knew all the arguments against us being together but I didn’t care anymore. I wanted him and I knew he wanted me. Everyone else could go to hell!
"D’you want a drink?"
"Yeah, soda."
I watched him as he made his way to the bar. Glancing over my shoulder I motioned to Willow who nodded and scuttled off to the DJ.
"Here." He handed me my drink.
I heard the first few notes of a song. Putting my drink down I took his hand.
"Dance with me."
I didn’t wait for an answer as I dragged him onto the dancefloor.
‘I’ve been meaning to tell you
I’ve got this feeling that won’t subside
I look at you and I fantasize
You’re mine tonight
Now I’ve got you in my sights
With these hungry eyes
One look at you and I can’t disguise
I’ve got hungry eyes
I feel the magic between you and I...’
I rubbed myself against him sensuously and heard a low growl come from deep within his throat. I knew what I was doing to him. This was make or break time for us. Since the binding there was no reason why we couldn’t be together. I just had to break down his defences and convince him of that.
‘I want to hold you so hear me out
I want to show you what love’s all about
Darlin’ tonight
Now I’ve got you in my sights...’
He was beginning to respond to me know. His grip became tighter as we both moved to the music.
‘I need you to see
This love was meant to be...’
He bent down and purred in my ear, "Let’s get out of here."
I looked up at him and asked innocently, "Why?"
His smile said it all. As I followed him towards the door I offered up silent thanks that my Mom had made me sit through Dirty Dancing.
The End
