tune

She smiled, still humming happily.

Sophie smiled softly and kept swaying. It was a simple dance but she was enjoying it.

She kept up her humming, closing her eyes again.

Sophie kept smiling and swaying to Raven’s tune.

She kept humming quietly.

“This is nice.” Sophie whispered, not losing their rhythm.

"It is." she agreed, before going back to humming.

Sophie smiled softly at her approval and started moving in an actual dance, keeping the steps simple for Raven since Sophie had taken a few years of dance lessons.

Raven had not had dance lessons, but did her best to follow along.

Sophie kept her moves simple and hoped they were easy enough for Raven to follow.

They were, mostly. The other woman caught on pretty easily.

Sophie smiled a little at that. “You dance well.” she whispered again.

"You dance better, I'm just following along with you."

“Thank you but sometimes you just need the right partner.” she assured. “Other people just have no sense of rhythm.” she added with a chuckle.

She laughed. "Ah, I'm sure that's true."

Sophie nodded, still keeping up the dance even without Raven humming. “I remember I had this one dance partner and he always stepped on my feet but thought he was Fred Astaire or something.” she said with a brief eye roll.

She laughed again. "That must have been awful."

“It wasn't fun, that's for sure.” Sophie agreed, smiling at Raven’s laugh.

She smiled, nodding.

“But I liked dancing, so I decided not to quit because of one bad dance partner.” she said with a small shrug.

"Reasonable."

Sophie smiled at her agreement and slowly ended the dance.

She smiled again as the dance ended, looking over at Sophie.

Sophie smiled back, a little mischievously, as she kissed Raven’s knuckles. “Thank you for the lovely dance.” she said almost coyly.

Raven smiled again. "No, thank you."
