Dance Partners

The moment I saw her, a rush of excitement came over me that filled me with a desire I had not felt for years. What could I possibly say to make her attracted to me as well?

After being hurt by another failed relationship, my friend (Brian) who I knew for many years invited me on a blind date with a group that he was taking dance lessons. Brian introduced me to Mandy, and as I explained she had a white pants suit, black straight hair neatly trimmed, and I became nervous right away but gathered myself. My words almost stuttered but I said, ‘Mandy, I’m so glad to meet you’. I explained truthfully how amazingly attractive she was and my feeling of nervousness.

The evening was called an ice-breaker get-together for new dancers. We got a bottle of wine and Brian, his partner; Mandy and I all had a table and chatted with wine cheese and snacks. Brian and his partner went to the dance floor as we chatted to get to know one another.
Mandy asked ‘how do you know Brian? I told her I moved from Brazil with my parents when I was thirteen. It was hard to get to know other kids, but Brian treated me as a good friend and has remained a friend. Mandy, knowing Brian was gay eluded to why I remained friends. I said I was straight, and the fact he was gay didn’t bother with me. If I wasn’t a trained soccer player and could kick field goals in school, Brian would have been my only friend.
Mandy said, would you care to dance? I said a little let’s just stick to basics. Most the dance was Latin, and we started with some basic steps I had learned in dance classes as a kid. Mandy exclaimed you’ve had lessons. I said my Mom wanted me to take ballroom dancing; my Dad wanted me to be a soccer star.

When a slow dance came we held each other and the aroma of her hair engulfed the air, just holding her was a turn on. Mandy was Asian her manicured nails jewelry everything about her attracted me. I complemented her dancing saying she made me look good. She joked about she didn’t meet many football players that knew how to dance. We did a move that allowed her to brush her hand across my now swollen member and it made my somewhat embarrassed. I wanted to be on my good behavior.
