An old Earth Wind and Fire song began to play and several people whooped despite the fact that it had been a hit back in the mid seventies.
Scotty took her hand. "Would you dance with me?"
She gave him a surprised look and he took that as a yes. He led her out to where other couples were slow dancing to Love's Holiday. Her knees nearly buckled when he pulled her into his arms. She stared at him, barely daring to breathe. Was this real? The way he held her felt amazing, his body was rock solid against hers and again she felt how perfectly toned he was. Vanessa knew she had a dumb look on her face when he had to take her hand to place around his neck, reminding her to hold him too.
Scotty held her close, her body molding to his perfectly. He had never touched her like this, had never known that she would fit so perfectly against him. The last of his barriers slowly eroded away.
