Fic. Ianto / Dress?
She'd never been one for dressing up. For being pretty, for heels and hair and makeup- fpr all of those things that made a girl a girl, that made boys want to talk to her.
Ianto had been so ery right when he realised that she'dmissed most of the normalthings. The dances, and school- But tonight.. tonight there was a party. At this party was going to be dancing, and for once...
Ace felt awkward. Incredibly awkward, more lke, but the white halter-topped dress actually showed off her curves, the heels making her legs look amazing. She had a bit of makeup on, just enough to make her look prettier - her hair twisted up by Charlie, her eyes dancing when Ace had shyly actually asked her for help.
slightly scuffed high-heels completed the outfit, and Ace had to walk slowly so she wouldn't trip, wouldn't mess up all of the hard work-but... She flushed when one person asked her to dance, then another. People didn't do this, they didn't just ask her to dance or if she wanted anything to drink or-
Owen Harper took one step towards her, and that was what it took for Ianto to slide in between and take Ace's hand. She reddened to the roots of his hair as he actually said she looked pretty, and she ducked her head for a moment. She still liked him, even after that horrid incident that was months ago. They ended up talking, Ace nodding her head towards the beach so they could walk while they talked. Hours ticked by, and the sound of her laughter echoed in the night air. Her shoes hung from her fingers as they walked still, hours later - her hair spilled down her back, his jacket over her shoulders and his tie undone.
She wasn't even sure how long they'd been talking anymore when she'd stopped, and moved closer to the water, the tide rushing up over her toes as she looked over her shoulder at him and laughed with the sun streaking through her hair. It was a purely instinctual moment to catch her arm, for her to turn and look up at him - and for him to bend and kiss her. She didn't pull back, but made a soft noise as her eyes widened - and when he didn't stop, when he didn't say it was a mistake, her eyes drifted closed with his hands cupping her face.
Maybe.. maybe this was a new beginning.
