NYE: Clubbing-Leah accepts the dance with the stranger

"The next dance?" Leah laughed "Want me to put you on my dance card too?" they both laughed at the old tradition used evidently her grandma's days.

"ha ha I am not THAT old." Michael said.

"But yeah sure." Leah nodded after a moment of hesitation and a shy smile. Michael smiled and pulled her close and began moving to the beat of the music. Leah couldn't help but feel a little self-conscious as he pressed his body against hers, but at the same time, it felt thrilling.

As they danced, Michael's hands began to wander down her back and towards her hips. Leah's heart raced as he pulled her even closer and she could feel his warm breath against her neck. It all felt so wrong, but so right. Was it the booze that were clouding her judgement or some deep-seated lust?

"Having fun?" Michael whispered into her ear.

Leah nodded, unable to find her voice. She wasn't sure if it was the **** or the music or the handsome stranger in front of her, but she was feeling more daring than usual. He continued to move his hands and body sensually with Leah in tandem. Then the music suddenly stopped.

The countdown to New Year suddenly began and everyone began to shout out the countdown.

“10…9…8…7…6…5…4…3…2…1…” Then a roar of cheers and excitement “Happy New Year!?”

Leah and Michael looked around at everyone who began to kiss their dancing partners or willing strangers around them. Michael gave her a look that said “Gotta kiss someone at midnight.”
