You love me for the chase but hate me for the runaround (1b/3?)

He heaved a sigh in response, but looked back down at their feet never the less. Alfred's face twisted into concentration as he stumbled through the steps, narrowing his eyes and biting the inside of his cheek. Arthur only shook his head and wordlessly tipped Alfred's head up, forcing their eyes to meet as the steps became a dance. Arthur hummed his approval.
"Amateur but passable, considering this is your first time," he concluded bluntly.
Alfred seemed to be able to pick out the compliment and the corners of his eyes crinkled as he grinned. Arthur satisfactorily noted that Alfred had build up a small sweat on his brow, but also surprised that he'd taken the impromptu lesson so seriously.
"You have you consider that I probably had one of the oldest and grumpiest teachers history's ever seen," Alfred fired back smoothly as he stopped them. The gramophone Arthur had played in the background skipped at the end of the record, but they didn't make a move to stop it yet.
"And yet he was able to teach the most difficult and slow-witted student history has ever seen." Arthur raised a challenging brow to his partner, but Alfred just shook his head and laughed.
They smiled at each other for a moment and shared the companionable silence before Alfred shifted the hand on his hip up and pulled Arthur forward. With a enthusiastic glint in his eye that obviously spelt disaster for Arthur, he winked with a grin.
"Time to learn the jitterbug, Artie!"
And in the process of refusing to be defeated by anything American, Arthur did just that.
'8D First post on kink meme. Please forgive me for any problems. :< I mean, I already fucked up the title...previous post should read (1a/3?). My apologies to OP for straying off prompt...I promise you'll get your senseless kissing at one point. >>' Title is based off a lyric from "Love on the Rocks" by Sara Bareilles. I have an obsession for 50's culture, if you haven't noticed already. And next parts will be up eventually. That is all.
