The music carried on, and with it, their steps. Damascus found himself having trouble catching his breath. It was difficult for him to tell whether this was due to the incessant pace of the tango, being unable to predict Boris' movements, or both.
There was a gleam in Boris' eyes and a new purpose to his dancing that Damascus simply couldn't decipher. The way he had not only taken effortlessly to learning the steps but also added new elements to it made it hard for him to think, and it took him a bit to gather his thoughts enough to make a simple comment.
"I told you you'd pick it up." He said smoothly, betraying none of the slow feverishness that had started to take him over.
He guided their light steps into more of a sliding, loping ordeal, holding Boris' waist in support as they sank to the floor and came up again fluidly.
With this new development, a crescendo grew in the music, and Damascus took it as a calling. He moved his hand down to Boris' thigh and pulled it over his hip, melding them into a close-fitting dip.
Catching and holding Boris' eyes for a moment, Damascus struggled once again to do something as simple as breathe. Involuntarily, his eyes moved down towards his partner's inviting mouth. A little breath of air escaped his own lips, and then he was pulling Boris back up, ending the pang of self-awareness almost before it had begun.
His mind swirled with the fever of it all, and he twirled Boris under his arm for the sole purpose of giving himself room to think.
If dancing was a language in and of itself... what exactly was being said?
