Take my hand, I'll take the lead, and every turn will be safe with me

Ian arrives at her place on time, in a coat and tie outfit that makes him look like a businessman. Yiskah chuckles in her form-fitting, strapless, cream-colored dress. She has a pair of brown sandals with two-inch heels on her feet. He looks down at his own black leather shoes.

"Should I have put on the steel-toed pair?" he asks with a grin.

She returns his expression. "Maybe. Better to be safe than sorry."

He shrugs. "I'm not going home to change shoes." He offers a corsage with small white roses. A feather hangs from it.

"We could practice. Without the shoes." She raises her arm to him. He ties the corsage around her wrist. "We have some time."

He goes down on one knee and bows with a hand towards her. "May I take off Cinderella's shoes for her?"

She shakes her head ruefully and places her hands on his shoulders for balance. She puts her heeled foot on his hand. "You have Cinderella's permission, Prince Charming. But you'll have to let me take your carriage later. My pumpkin was turned into pie."

He grins languidly and removes the straps of her footwear. "Anything for milady."

When he finishes removing her shoes, he does the same for his. His socks are black with small tree patterns stitched into it. It is the pair that Yiskah gave to him for his last birthday. It makes her laugh.

He stands up and offers her a hand with a sweeping bow. "Can I have this dance, milady?"

She lays her hand on his and steps closer. "Of course, Mr. Prince."

Huhu I hope this isn't too OOC ;_;

I jumped backward. Sorry XD
4/5

And with every step together, we just keep on getting better

"You're getting it!" Daphne grins at Malik continue to dance in the otherwise empty gym. "I'd hate for you to be bested by Cass at the Dance. You know she picks up things quickly."

Malik frowns and leads her into a turn. "I am not here to be the better dancer."

She tuts at him and lets him ease her into a dip. "You're the guy. You should be ashamed if your girl partner does better than you," she returns when they're back to stepping side by side. "Where's your manly pride, huh?"

"Pride shouldn't matter in a dance."

He makes her turn again. She pouts but twirls nonetheless.

"That's true. It's something shared after all," she concedes. She considers his expression. "You should lighten up though. Dances should have some intimacy. Didn't you know?"

She pulls him closer until their bodies are almost pressed against each other. She tugs his arms around her waist and places her own over his shoulders. She looks up at his surprised look with a grin.

"See? Just like that."

She sways in a slow dance.

"This is unnecessary," he says but follows anyway.

"On the contrary, it is."

Don't be afraid, afraid to fall. You know I'll catch you through it all

Ves wonders why Stern brought her to a small alcove in the library instead of the school gym, where the School Dance is. She doesn't question how he unlocked the library's door.

"Why...are we here?" she asks him. She tugs at her knee-length emerald green dress consciously.

Felix grins at her and takes her hand in his. He ties a corsage with a fully-bloomed red rose in the middle surrounded by small white rose buds. The corsage's band is black and gold, twisted together. She blinks at it in surprise.

"I said I'd get you a nice corsage, didn't I?" He steps closer and puts a hand on her cheek. "It had to be something to match your beauty after all."

She blushes and pushes her glasses back up. "Thank you..."

He laughs and steps back, letting his hand drop to his side. He keeps his other clasped in hers.

"Do you know how to dance?"

She looks down and shakes her head. "Sorry...I didn't tell you..."

He puts his other hand under her chin to raise her gaze towards him. "I can teach you here. Then we can show off in the gym later~"

Ves stares into his eyes. "But...there are...too many people..."

He grins. "We could stay here if you want to keep me to yourself. I wouldn't mind."

Her cheeks redden again. "How would you...teach me?"

He steps even closer and wraps her arms around his shoulders. "Step on my toes. I'll show you the steps first. You can follow them later."

"But...you'll be hurt..."

"No, I won't," he says firmly.

With some hesitation, she finally complies. She makes sure to only use her own toes. He places her hands on her hips. Their fronts are pressed together. Their position gives Ves some height, bringing their faces closer to each other.

"Don't be afraid. I'll catch you if you fall," he promises.

"Okay..."

He begins moving side to side, easily carrying her weight.

"Relax."

She tries to do as he says and they manage to move around more.

This goes on until he twirls them around. Her grip on him slips along with her toes on his. She shuts her eyes in fright.

But, as he promised, Felix catches her with his hand on her back. She opens her eyes and stares at his smile and soft gaze.

"Didn't I tell you I'd catch you?" he whispers into her ear. He suddenly puts his other arm under her knees and carries her. She wraps her arms around his neck.

He turns them around again. "We can do it this way too."

He steps begins to lead them into a dance again. He reaches down to kiss her on the lips.

You thought I was done? XD

It's one in a million, the chances of feeling the way we do

Malik leads Cass to an open observation deck at the planetarium. They are the only ones around aside from the few employees remaining in the building.

"Thank you for bringing me here," she says as she looks up at the starry sky. "I've always wanted to go here."

"You're welcome." He joins her by the railing and follows her gaze up.

They look on in silence for a few minutes before Cass breaks it.

"There are millions of stars out there," she says with a smile. "It's hard to pick out which one is which."

He turns to her with a small upturn of his lips. "That may be true. But you can find one in a million of those if you're really determined to."

She looks at him. "You think so?"

"I'm sure you can do it," he assures her.

They spend the next minutes gazing at each other. Cass looks away first with a blush. Malik's smile widens by a fraction.

"I apologize for not being able to dance with you properly earlier," he says, pertaining to the School Dance, where he had to attend to some of his duties.

She shakes her head. "It's fine. I understand."

"It's not fair on you. Daphne said you worked hard on learning for it." He offers her his hand. "Would you like to dance now?"

She stares at his hand for a moment. "You don't have to..."

"Please."

She glances at his expression and finally puts her hand in his.

"I'm not that good," she mumbles.

He pulls her closer. "No one is here to watch."

He begins to lead. She follows.

Huhu sorry if it's so OOC. This is really the end.
