We meet, of course at Fanny's, local night club.
My friends notice you watching me first as we dance and laugh. They dare me to go up to you, which of course I can't do, after all you're older than me and I'm way too shy to be so upfront (well back then I was). So I decide to go up to the bar for another drink. Hmmm, funny how I just happen to stand next to you while waiting to be served.
I can tell you want to talk but are nervous, so I turn and smile and say, "Hi." The music is so loud we have to move close to be able to hear each other.
You shout, "Would you like to dance?"
I reply loudly, "Yes, I would."
We move onto the dance floor. Still shy, I spend more time watching the floor or looking around than looking at you. But I do glance at you checking you out. Of course making sure you're not a daggy dancer and to my surprise you are doing quite well. The music stops and we stand nervously looking at each other.
I lean forward and tell you my name, things are getting a teeny bit more comfortable and so we stay and have a few more dances. After that we go our separate ways, you back to your mates at the bar, me over to my friends.
About five minutes later I feel you beside me. I turn and see a drink in your hand; you smile and hand it to me. You had been watching me closely you knew what I was drinking. We stand listening to the music as you lean in and ask me where I come from and enjoy chatting, just small talk, but learning a little about each other.
You ask me to dance and we move onto the dance floor again. This time the second song is a slow dance. We look at each other nervously, is the attraction strong enough. You move in closer to me and put you arms around me holding me closely. I instantly melt against you. We sway to the music, every now and then separating long enough to look at each other and smile.
When the music stops we part, this time you come with me to the table where my friends are and happily I see your friends have joined us. No need to worry about you escaping back to the bar. I excuse myself and go off to the ladies with a girlfriend (of course), and while there I excitedly tell her how fantastic I think you are.
When I return to the table, I thank God you're still there. You hand me my drink and we chat easily, about nothing in particular, which groups we like, how often we go there, just idle chatter. One time as you lean in close to talk to me I feel your arm go round me, and that's where it stays for the rest of the night.
