“Please leave” I said softly “This night is for Alice and me I don’t want this headache, Xander” I rubbedof a headache was about to set in “I can’t have you showing up like this It isn’t fair to me”

“Just one dance” He said, his eyes never leaving mine

“What?”

“One dance and I’ll leave and take Aiden with me”

“Why do you want a dance?”

“Who wouldn’t want a dance from a sexy siren like you?” He winked at me

“I’m not a siren” I shook my head with a blush

“When you dance, I couldn’t stopat you I think that makes you a siren” He pulled me towards him “Dance with me, Liv”

“What about Aiden and Alice?” I nodded towards theed

“What about them?”

“Fine, one dance” I sighed “Don’t try any funny stuff”

“What funny stuff would I try?” He looked at hed

“Don’t try and slip your hands up under hed and pulled me closer to him

“I can’t make any pro together It felt nice and warerous as his hands moved up and down my back and ass, until they settled on ether in harmony as if we’d danced a s His body against mine felt like home and I allowed myself to relax into him, I put my arms around his neck and rested my head on his shoulder We moved slowly as if at a ball; our dance was totally out of place in the packed club, but neither of us cared We were surrounded by people, but in that moment there was only us I was surprised that he didn’t try to touch ain His hands remained where they were and his lips never ventured towardsin his chest, steady and solid, re htly and looked into his face to see if I could figure out what he was thinking He stared back at me with intense eyes, no smile on his face We just studied each other as we le detail of each other’s face I felt as if he wereoff to war and this was the last dance ere promised before he shipped out We stared at each other, just taking each other in It felt like it was the first ti each other It was the first ti This moment was for us For the people we could have been in different circumstances In different circuical, but instead it was tarred It was tarred by the fact that eren’t just two strangers getting to know each other We were already tied together, in ways that we’d never be able to erase or forget We were each other’s dirty little secret and as I continued to stare at hihwith thisto put h this?

“The dance is over” I stepped back and gave him a short smile “You should leave now”

“What if I don’t want it to be over?” He said as he gave me the most drop-dead smile I’d ever seen on his face

“Then I’d say I’ed and hurried over to Alice before he could stop rabbed her aret a drink”
