Julianna joined in the applause, swept up in the energy of the crown and the dance they had shared. Nothing could dim the bright smile on her features. Especially not when he wrapped an arm around her waist and pulled her back towards the dance floor.
Her eyes fell closed and she sighed, contently, as she draped her hand over his shoulder. The moved slowly and she focused on the feeling of his hand in her, and at the small of her back. The gentle pressure of his chin against her head. It didn’t even occur to her the last time she had danced with someone this way had been at her wedding four years ago.
As far as Julianna was concerned, the song hadn’t been long enough. She wanted to keep being held by him this way, bodies pressed together as they moved slowly across the dance floor. When they were back in the booth, she leaned against him and the arm he put around her shoulders. They touched more freely now, that last bit of hesitation between them having dissolved. She let one of her hand rest on his leg and used the other to sip at one of the various wines they still had on the table.
“I think this place is amazing,” she replied, looking away from him to glance around the venue. She turned back to him, green eyes on those irresistible grey ones. “And I think you’re very charming.” She paused and took another sip of wine. “And I think I might be having an wonderful time with you.”

I fear no fate (for you are my fate, my sweet) I want no world (for beautiful you are my world, my true) and it’s you are whatever a moon has always meant and whatever a sun will always sing is you.
