Re: Clara and John
On the door floor, Clara felt comfortable, ready to let loose and have fun. That changed the second John stopped moving. Clara let her arms drop to her sides, wondering if she'd done something wrong or if he'd come to his senses and realized he was at the dance with a geek for a date. Then he spoke. She reminded herself that people did need to use the restroom. It didn't necessarily mean he was going to sneak out the window or find another dance partner.
"Yeah, I'll be fine." She leaned up, brushed her lips against his and let the kiss linger for a couple of seconds, hoping it would given him an incentive to come back. "I'll be right here." She added and instantly worried that made her seem desperate. She swayed to the music to show that she was fine dancing on her own. She would be, as long as she could stop over thinking everything and enjoy the night.
