where they get asked to join an impromptu dance at some folk dance at a foreign restaurant
Hello metaorigin 💗. Ugh yes. Did you get the dance memory in general? Unfortunately i lucked out. i genuinely despise the pity system >:(. Also sorry this is late, I'm finally back!
The bar was loud. A bit overwhelming. All you could do was hope the drink in your hands would calm down your nerves.
Sylus was continuing to nurse the drink in his hand, his foot tapping a steady pace of the music.
The crowd cheered and flowed with such vibrance you wanted to dance. However your heart raced a little when you thought of yourself up there. With or without Sylus.
It was unfortunately just a fantasy, until a drunken member slurring the song dance towards you. Her dress flower and her eyes were bright as she grabbed your hand.
"It's rude to sit out, y'know!" She yelled, giggling.
You were so shocked you grabbed Sylus without thinking.
The clapping continued to get louder, the yelling following suit as you too were guided to the floor. You could barely understand the words of the song itself but everyone's eyes were now on you.
The girl, seeing you in a bambi state, guided you. Jumping, cheering, stomping, twirling, everything.
Your body slowly loosened, and the stiff moves turned to an intent, happily following along and eventually given in.
You got so lost in the music, the laughter, the dancing you completely failed to realize that you were stealing the spotlight.
Everyone spurred you on, as you fell in love with the night. Even Sylus watched, hardly stifling the grin fighting his face.
The crowd pushed him towards you when you began to realize you were alone. He joined, taking your hands and grabbing your waist as you two glided across the floor.
You couldn't help but let the night take you, dancing between partners, pronouncing words horribly and smiling so much your cheeks ached.
You even ended up on the table with the lady, yelling back to the crowd and dancing with each other, looking over at Sylus who looked at you as if you hung the stars and the moon.
Eventually the night faded and you and Sylus drifted in a loose embrace. Cheek against his chest, hand on your waist while the chairs are turned and people are finishing up a few drinks.
"we should do this more often." You quipped. Sylus pulled back and looked at you with soft shock before slowly twirling you.
“Careful, kitten — you just let the cat out of the bag.”, he grinned, bringing you back.
You smile and giggle into his chest as you two continue to let this night sway.
