“No, thank you! That was a blast!” Harper feels invigorated. Jenny and Shane are standing next to each other in stunned silence as the dancing couple rejoins the group.

Carmen gives Jenny a kiss on the lips. “Hi.”

“Hi.” Jenny returns with a still stunned voice.

Harper is embracing Shane who just looks at her in amazement. “Is there nothing you can’t do?”

“There’s plenty I can’t do.” Harper smiles.

“That was really hot. Good thing I have faith in our relationship, or else I would be pretty fucking jealous right now.” Shane gives her a playful scowl.

“You wanna learn how to Salsa now?” Harper smiles.

“I don’t think I could handle being on the dance floor like that with you.” She kisses her softly on the lips.

“That was amazing you guys.” Dana says.

“You were fucking hot!” Alice adds. Then looking at Shane and Jenny, “Sorry.”

“It’s true.” Shane says.

Another slow song comes on and Harper feeling inspired asks her girlfriend to dance again.

“I think I am all danced out Sweetie.” Shane bows out.

“Well then you give me no other option.” She turns to Dana, “May I have this dance?”

Dana looks at Shane and Alice. Shane gives a nod of encouragement. Alice says, “Go for it.” But quickly adding, “No funny business Harper.”

Harper smiles, “Yes Ma’am.”

Harper and Dana make a beautiful couple out on the dance floor. They both look so stunning in their fancy evening attire.

“Are you having fun tonight?” Harper asks her as they ease into the rhythm of the music.

“Yeah, I am having a blast. It’s a little overwhelming though.” Dana says a little unnerved by all of the attention she’s been getting.

“I can imagine.” Harper says. “Well, you are doing a great job and handling it all very well. And you look absolutely gorgeous.”

Dana puts her head down and feels herself blush a little at the compliment. “Thank you. You do too. That dress is amazing on you.”

“Thanks, I clean up pretty good.” Harper makes them both laugh.

Dana feels herself relaxing and not feeling so nervous in Harper’s arms. She still has moments when she looks at Harper and wishes things had worked out a little differently for them. Like tonight, when Harper walked in Dana had to force herself not to stare.
