House Party

[noonelaughed]

It'd been so fucking easy to put together, Chris didn't understand how he'd been the first person to think of it. Yeah, there'd been plenty of parties on the island before-- or so Chris had been told-- but he wasn't sure that any of them had been real, proper parties and not a group of people just sort of milling around, sipping at glasses of wine

Peter had convinced her it would be fun, but Savannah just felt out of place to start with. She didn't drink and she didn't smoke pot and so she sat back in the corner and watched and had a snack.

It didn't take long before the party became Peter's best idea ever. She got up and danced with people she'd never met and didn't even ask them their names. She didn't have anything but a glass of water but that was okay because it was the best tasting water in the world and she loved how it felt in her mouth. And she loved dancing. And she loved this music.

"I love you," she said to the person she bumped into, sort of rubbing against them because that felt good, too. It didn't even seem strange that this wasn't like her. At all. Savannah might be friendly but she was never like this.

"You do?" Xander asked as he cocked his head, looking hard at the girl. She was one of the fuzzy people and he had to reach out and touch her to make sure she was really there. He was half convinced the out of focus people were ghosts.

"Oh...do I love you too?" Could you love a ghost?

"You love me big bunches," Savannah assured him with earnest eyes and a slow nod. She grabbed his shirt and pulled herself closer to him, smiling broader as she got closer.

"You should dance. It's a thing. Everyone's got to dance until it;s hot enough to melt the house."

[scoobys_heart]

"Oh well then. I guess I could give you a dance. It is kinda my thing." Xander said with a small laugh as she pulled into her.

He started to move with the music, just like he did every other night. But for some reason, tonight it was much easier to loose himself in the music. To start, he covered her hands in his shirt with his and coaxed her into taking it off as he moved against her.

[seeyousoonthen]

It took far less coaxing than one might think. She helped him strip his shirt off and then she held it to her chest like some kind of armor. She was blushing from her neck to her hairline...but she didn't say stop.

"You'll melt it in a minute," she said, taking a step back only to find a bench that had people at the other end. And apparently she and her private dancer.

[scoobys_heart]

Xander smiled at her, a familiar laugh erupting in the back of his brain as he moved, his movements taking on a wild quality for a moment. He ignored everyone else, focusing completely on the girl he was dancing for.

"Then at least I know I'm hot." He said with a teasing smirk that erupted in laughter for a moment that almost broke the mood. He solved that by moving his hips in a tried and true manner, perfectly on the Catsratch stage.

The way he was moving made Savannah swallow hard. The light played behind him and his bare skin was so tempting. She reached up to touch him, just below the navel.

"You're so beautiful," she drawled.

[scoobys_heart]

Xander saw her hand and cocked his hips towards her, leaning his stomach into her hand. He spun slowly in place so her hand trailed along his skin. It felt amazing.

At her compliment, he just smiled and kept moving, just for her, in thanks.

[seeyousoonthen]

She laughed nervously and her blush deepened. She'd never had this sort of attention. It was flattering and titillating and confusing all at once. The one thing she could focus on was how he felt and it prompted her to put both hands on him, touching the smooth, moving skin.

[scoobys_heart]

As he kept dancing, Xander stayed in place so her hands never left his body. In fact, he danced closer, practically in her lap at this point but not quite touching her, teasing just as Helen and the Ladies at the Fabulous Ladies Night Club had taught him.

[seeyousoonthen]

She wondered if he was going to touch her back or if he might kiss her the way that other boy had done, but he just moved. He moved and she watched and it was like smoke in air, coiling and twisting. She wanted him to come closer and move back and as she thought it, he did it. She could control him with her mind. Savannah had never believed she had power over anything just by thinking a thing.

[scoobys_heart]

As Savannah thought she was controlling him with her mind, Xander was loosing control to the music. For a long moment, he even forgot that he was dancing for her, completely lost in the beat and tempo surrounding him.

But then his had hand touched her hair and he suddenly remembered. And all his focus was on the girl, his hands gracing over her head, hair, shoulders and arms, quick soft touches, like a lover's, as he kept constantly moving.

[seeyousoonthen]

Savannah arched toward him. His hands in her hair made her close her eyes and sigh softly. She smiled and tugged at his waist and his pants.

"Don't stop," she said to him, but only barely loud enough to be heard.

[scoobys_heart]

"Take them off." He said softly in reply, cocking his hips towards her even as he kept moving them as he danced. His hands stayed rooted in her hair, as if he was feeling for the music between blond strands.

[seeyousoonthen]

Savannah tried, she really did. The fly was just so complicated and he was moving and he held her so carefully that it made her head spin.

"I can't," she said finally, giving up. "I forgot how pants work."

[scoobys_heart]

Xander didn't give up his hold on her even as she couldn't undo his pants. It didn't matter, only the music mattered. "it's okay...just don't let go." Even he wasn't sure what he meant but he didn't want to let go of her hair, so he didn't want her to let go of him.
