She looked beautiful, as always, and there was a sharp pang in Theo's chest as she turned around to face him. He had missed her - more than he realized - and it was hard to be facing her as her friend, when all of the old feelings were still there.
"Thank you for asking me to go. I've always wanted to see you dance. And you...the song...well, it was all really beautiful," he said, feeling slightly foolish as he stared at the floor.
