With any other boy, she would have made a move. Or told him to make a move. Her relationship with Gar was different. Better. She actually cared about him, which was she didn't push too fast or too hard.
It was his compliment that did it for her. "Thank you," she said. She moved a little closer to him, having gotten comfortable enough in the dance. Still swaying slightly to the beat, she leaned in and kissed him. It was soft and slow. Rose wanted to savor this. She'd been wanting to do this for some time now. Smiling a little into the kiss, she realized she didn't even have to stand on her tip-toes.
