Owen could tell she was really studying his eyes. He liked the deep way she stared into his gaze. She didn’t shy away from that eye contact for the moment. The world sort of just faded away and it was just green eyes and grey eyes mingling.
He sort of felt like kissing her already with their faces close like that but he didn’t want to come off as too eager, as if the intention of the night was purely physical. Sure, he had physical ideas for the conclusion of their evening. He, however, would also be perfectly content to play with her hair and drink a little wine and hear some music.
That would be enough, too.
They clinked glasses and each tried their drinks as the current jam came to an end. The main singer, a man dressed in purple slacks held up with suspenders directed the crowd that had gathered in front of the stage to clear out so that dancing could begin in the area.
Owen raised his eyebrows at Julianna, he nudged her with his shoulder. “Do you dance?” He asked in her ear again. Her hair had fallen back into place and he left it but spoke to her through the strands. His lips brushed curls before he backed away from her to gauge her openness to the idea.
“I’m not too bad. Dancing is super sexist. Luckily for you all you have to do is follow.” He winked at his stupid joke.
He took her hand, apparently he wasn’t intending to accept a ‘no’ on the dance. The band went through the motions of returning the instruments and noodled around a bit playing their own rifts while the crowd resituated themselves.
Owen threw his leather jacket down on their table to signify to any other patrons who had funny ideas that the table was taken. The band had quieted down and the song began. Couples began claiming places on the dance floor before the band. Owen pulled Julianna by her hand onto the floor and whipped around scooping her against him with one hand around her back.
Once he had her in his arms, he placed his hand in the correct spot just below her shoulder blade, opening up a little bit of space between them. He cupped her hand. Taking a second to internalize the beat, Owen then took off, leading her through some basic swing steps. Once he knew she wouldn’t get too lost he planned to do some fancier moves with her. He gave her an initial warning, lifting his arm and smiling at her before he gave a little push to turn her under his arm and pulled her back against him.
