He took my hand and I uncrossed my legs, right before he pulled me up to my feet.
I left my shoes at the table and he took me to the center of the room, my bare feet were tapping on the cold shiny wooden floor.
We danced along with the music, it was a slow song and I stood on my tippy toes so my head could rest against his chest.
My legs were getting shaky and I had my arms around him, I was like his own personal hoola hoop.
The music moved through the room like a gust of wind through a field of daffodils, leaving petals aflutter in its wake.
It plucks us from the earth and lifts us off our feet, and he lifts me up and I land my feet on the toecaps of his shoes.
He placed his hand on the small of my back, it felt warm and safe as if making sure I wouldn’t fall down.
My left hand was engulfed in his right hand, gently and carefully he held mine, while my other hand was clinging to one of his belt loops.
We sway along with the music as we are carried upwards.
I looked up.
He looked down.
We smiled and one of the sun’s beams bounced off our teeth.
Above us the sky looked like outer space, we were between the bright stars with planets rotating all around us.
A falling star goes by us, brushes us, I wake up but quickly fall back to sleep again to the best dream I have ever had.
