As far as stress relief went, this wouldn't have been Valerie's first choice, but thus far it had proven to be acceptable. Normally a few hits to the heavy bag or a house call to the red light district or a stiff drink were how Valerie dealt with the stress that came up. Perhaps there was something to this dancing thing, though Valerie was quite convinced that it had less to do with the dancing and everything to do with the partner. Valerie had arrived angry, the events of the day having given her much to fuss over, but the anger was subsiding. She still had the thought of the earlier embarrassment in her head, but it was getting pushed aside. And soon enough things would be back to usual. Beginner's luck on the part of Stripper Girl, that's all it was. 

But as Amelia spun around, Valerie's thoughts were on the present situation. Her cheeks didn't blush at the compliment, though there was a slight smug smile of satisfaction on her lips. Lips curved at the sides, her eyes narrowed like a seductress as she looked straight on towards Amelia, even as the latter leaned in to whisper her remarks. It was clear to Valerie that Amelia knew exactly what she was doing. The way she moved, the words leaving her lips, the self-satisfied smile, no doubt the routine had been practiced on any number of others over the years. But Valerie was not like them, not so easily swayed and prone to swooning over a brief skin-to-skin contact. 

"But do you really mean that?" Valerie asked, speaking in a whisper as well, her lips mere inches from Amelia's ear. "Or are you just telling me what you think I want to hear? Whispering sweet nothings into my ear before you even get to the bedroom." After the sentence, Valerie lightly squeezed Amelia's hips, ending with a pinch of the woman's skin. "Let's find out how sincere you are." Before continuing, Valerie turned her head and planted a kiss directly onto Amelia's cheek, trailing her lips towards Amelia's ear, playfully biting towards the ear lobe - though she made sure not to actually bite. "You're going to give me your number. When it rings and I'm on the other end, then we'll see if you're being honest. Or if you're like all the others out there." 

Valerie smirked following her reply, and in a swift movement, brought her face close to Amelia's. Valerie's lips were nearly touching Amelia's, but rather than close the gap, Valerie grinned and turned towards Amelia's other cheek, giving it the same lingering kiss she had given the opposite cheek.
