We were seated in the movie theare and the credits started to roll.
"Dance with me," he said, smiling.
"Here? Ok..." I responded unsure and unenthusiastically.
We stood up as if to leave, and I paused for a moment to oblige his request. For under a minute, we swayed back and forth in the dark theatre. I'll admit, it was a half-assed display of dancing; It really was. It may have looked more like a long and unstable hug than a dance, actually. But, it showed him I tried while keeping me close enough to my comfort zone. I didn't want to embarrass myself. People don't dance in theatres. It's just odd.
And after we were done dancing and walking out, I realized something surprising - I was glad I had just danced with him. Really glad.
I'm questioning whether this will continue - this, "I am uncomfortable but will meet you half way and then find out it was a good thing" occurance.
If it does, I just hope it's half way I'm going, and not further. But I'm not so sure...
