The College Years - Gone Dancing

"Sensations, emotions, thoughts, it's all just putting something in the mind that wasn't there before."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Sun Jul 01, 2012 3:59 pm

"Yeah, yeah that makes sense. And thanks. For keeping it in our heads for now."

by **Samantha McManus** » Sun Jul 01, 2012 4:04 pm

"Wouldn't do anything worse than that. I don't want you to stumble," she grinned.

by **Nailah Weaver** » Sun Jul 01, 2012 4:06 pm

"That's not what I meant..." she blushes, stumbling just a bit anyway.

by **Samantha McManus** » Sun Jul 01, 2012 4:10 pm

"Who's the one being awful now?"

by **Nailah Weaver** » Sun Jul 01, 2012 4:12 pm

"Not me!"

There's at least a bit of credit to her claim of innocence because, well, most of her thoughts there are not very specific or well defined.

by **Samantha McManus** » Sun Jul 01, 2012 4:27 pm

"I'm being good," she thought with an accompanied mental chuckle, stepping away to try some more elaborate steps and show off a bit.

by **Nailah Weaver** » Sun Jul 01, 2012 4:29 pm

"You really are." she changes the topic as she mostly watches, gladly staying back a bit and not even trying to keep up with Sam.

by **Samantha McManus** » Sun Jul 01, 2012 4:48 pm

"You want to try something for couples though, or are you getting thirsty?"

by **Nailah Weaver** » Sun Jul 01, 2012 4:52 pm

"I could use a drink first, yeah." she smiles, only stalling a little bit.

by **Samantha McManus** » Sun Jul 01, 2012 4:58 pm

"Alright," she smiled back, heading off the floor.

by **Nailah Weaver** » Sun Jul 01, 2012 5:00 pm

Following Sam off the dance floor she notices how exhausting it actually was and she's kinda glad to have bit of a break, as fun as the dancing was.

"I'm glad you dragged me out here."

by **Samantha McManus** » Mon Jul 02, 2012 1:22 am

"Thought you might like it."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Mon Jul 02, 2012 2:08 am

"Bit more exhausting than I thought it'd be."

by **Samantha McManus** » Mon Jul 02, 2012 2:24 am

"Not all that different from aerobics, aye? More fun, though."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Mon Jul 02, 2012 3:16 am

"That's for sure." she smiles.

by **Samantha McManus** » Mon Jul 02, 2012 10:33 am

"Now get something to drink. I'm going to really give you a workout," she grinned.

by **Nailah Weaver** » Mon Jul 02, 2012 10:36 am

"There's that regret..." she chuckles and goes to order a drink. It takes roughly forever but she does eventually get it and rejoins Sam.

by **Samantha McManus** » Mon Jul 02, 2012 10:49 am

"Oh, what's to regret? I won't steer you wrong."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Mon Jul 02, 2012 10:52 am

"It's not your steering I worry about, it's my stamina."

by **Samantha McManus** » Mon Jul 02, 2012 10:56 am

"Still a chance to back out..."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Mon Jul 02, 2012 11:01 am

"In for a nickel..." she says, finishing her drink.

by **Samantha McManus** » Mon Jul 02, 2012 12:42 pm

"Aye, come on."

She grinned and took Nailah by the hand, dragging her out onto the floor.

by **Nailah Weaver** » Mon Jul 02, 2012 12:43 pm

"Eep!"

"Okay, okay, I'm coming!" she laughs.

by **Samantha McManus** » Mon Jul 02, 2012 12:50 pm

Samantha was gentle at first, taking Nailah's hands and guiding her through some simple steps. She also avoided pulling the sphinx too close, just yet.

by **Nailah Weaver** » Mon Jul 02, 2012 12:55 pm

Nailah may not be a great dancer but with some guidance she seemed to be a quick learner. Of course a lot of that comes from anticipating Sam's moves surprisingly well.

by **Samantha McManus** » Mon Jul 02, 2012 1:00 pm

"You see? You're a natural."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Mon Jul 02, 2012 1:02 pm

"I'm just kinda... going where you're pointing me, really."

by **Samantha McManus** » Mon Jul 02, 2012 1:04 pm

"Aye. That's the point of leading. Usually it's the guy that does this."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Mon Jul 02, 2012 1:08 pm

"I'm not that sheltered."

by **Samantha McManus** » Mon Jul 02, 2012 1:14 pm

"Point taken," she smirked, and as the song reached an appropriate point she tried to pull Nailah quite a bit closer.

by **Nailah Weaver** » Mon Jul 02, 2012 1:18 pm

She doesn't resist but at first her dancing does become a little more awkward, partially only because stepping on Sam's toes becomes more of a possibility now but mostly because she's not used to being this close to someone, much less dance.

by **Samantha McManus** » Mon Jul 02, 2012 1:19 pm

"It's nothing to worry about. You're doing fine."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Mon Jul 02, 2012 1:26 pm

"Thanks. I'm trying." she smiles and it may be a little awkward and nervous but it's genuine. And slowly she stops thinking too much and just enjoys herself.

by **Samantha McManus** » Mon Jul 02, 2012 1:45 pm

Samantha didn't press her luck too much, and in the end was just glad that Nailah relaxed a bit as she led the sphinx back off the floor.

by **Nailah Weaver** » Mon Jul 02, 2012 1:52 pm

Which probably was a good idea anyway because something about the atmosphere of the club had ever so subtly shifted while they were dancing. And while Sam might sense it it's Nailah who suddenly stops, holding on to Sam's arm and yanking her back as a bottle whizzes by in front of them and shatters on the floor.

by **Samantha McManus** » Mon Jul 02, 2012 1:55 pm

"What the... who threw that?!"

Sam spun around, looking the crowd over.

by **Nailah Weaver** » Mon Jul 02, 2012 2:04 pm

The crowd seems suspiciously quiet though it's pretty obvious who did, the clearly drunk guy making no attempts to hide.

"Ya got lucky!" he slurs. "Better run along, mutie-lover!"

by **Samantha McManus** » Mon Jul 02, 2012 2:06 pm

"Why should I? I'm not the one who's about to get kicked out of the club, aye?"

by **Narrator** » Mon Jul 02, 2012 2:10 pm

"You sure 'bout that? Cause we're getting a little sick of you and your friend here struttin' around the place!"

Sadly a lot of the mumbling in the crowd seems to agree with him, even if they're not courageous or drunk enough to really speak up.
