Cassie tried to protest more after her took her wrists and pulled her to her feet, saying it wasn't hard and to follow his lead. And, she had to admit, that once they had started dancing, she was kind of enjoying it. It was very patient with her, even with the couple of times she had managed to step on her foot or get off beat. Once she got off the nervousness she was actually pretty good at dancing. Graceful and falling into step quicker than she had thought. Maybe she had more of her mother in her than she thought?

Well whatever it was, she found herself smiling as they two stepped together and even laughed when he said he was going to spin her. She nodded and passed under his arm, giggling the whole time, "Not so bad indeed. Probably because I do have such an amazing dance partner." Sooner than she thought the music had slowed and she fell into pace with him once more, her cheeks reddening slightly and her heart racing as things seemed to get more intimate than she thought, and rather quickly. 

She looked up at him, her heart pounding harder as her eyes met his, blue eyes looking into his bright violet ones as they moved, twirling along with him, only something changed when he spun her one last time. Instead of placing his hand back on her waist, hi arm went around her waist, pulling her so tightly to him that she could feel his heart beating against her own. Next thing she knew, his lips were pressed against hers, causing her to gasp in surprise under his lips, her face heating up. She wasn't sure what to do at first, but what she did know was that pressed so close to him and his lips moving against her own, it just felt _right_. Like this was how it was meant to be.

She was about to close her eyes and kiss him back, only he left the kiss too quickly. He seemed just as flustered as she was, his own pale cheeks as red as hers was and to her, it made her feel better, almost more comfortable about all of this. He was just as nervous about all of this as she was, and it was okay. Seeing this, she found herself smiling and shaking her head as she laughed softly at his apologies, "Don't be." Then, it was her turn to kiss him. She pressed her hands to his cheeks, standing on her tiptoes to press her lips against his, smiling under his lips.
