Chapter Sixteen - Shall We Dance?
A/N This is the song they dance to. 'The Melting Waltz'
-----------------------------
We walked into our dorm and Sherlock started clearing our furniture.
Richard walked in behind us and closed the door.
"So what kind of dancing are you teaching us Sherly?" Richard asked.
"Its Sherlock." Sherlock groused. "We are learning how to waltz."
"Yeah, that's what the professor told us to do..." I put in awkwardly.
"So how are we partnering up?" Richard said eyeing me.
"Er," Sherlock stuttered.
"I'll take Andrea!" I shouted trying to break the awkward tension in the air.
Richard looked at Me uncomfortably. I laughed.
"I'll pair Richard and Andrea up together." Sherlock said.
"Do you know how to dance Andrea?" I asked.
"Well I'm not great but I'm okay." She replied.
"Okay it's settles then. I'll dance with Sherlock!" I said (probably too happily)
"Big surprise." Richard muttered.
"Oh come on Richard I don't bite!" Said Andrea leading him to the impromptu dance floor.
Sherlock looked at me and extended his hand.
"May I have this dance?" He smiled. I nearly swooned. Do people do that? Faint?
"It would be my pleasure." I said my eyes aglow I heard Richard snort in the background but I was entranced by Sherlock's eyes. He lead me to the floor and Andrea set up the music. (The melting waltz.)
Sherlock placed his hand on my waist and grabbed the other hand. He lead me through the steps talking all the while. But as I danced with him it was like my feet already knew how to dance. Like there was a magic between us, and we were enchanted together. I felt as though we were the only people in this room, on this planet. We were made for each other.
But it was over all to soon.
"Keyland?" Sherlock said cutting through me thoughts.
"Yes." I hummed.
"Andrea is leaving." Sherlock said staring expectantly into my eyes.
"Oh" I said breaking eye contact with Sherlock. "Bye Andrea!" I waved.
"Goodbye you love birds..." She said winking at me. Sherlock and I both turned red.
Then she doubled over and clutched her stomach.
"Are you okay?" I asked, eyes wide.
"Yeah just cramps." She said looking a bit green.
"Oh okay, do you need anything?" I asked.
"No I'll be fine." She said closing the door behind her.
"I'd better go too." Said Richard trying to hide his disgust, at the fact that Sherlock and I were both still in the waltzing position.
"Bye Richard!" I said as he slammed the door behind him.
Finally Sherlock and I were alone. He looked at me and smiled.
"Keyland?" He asked.
"Yes Sherlock?" I replied staring at his handsome face.
"I have something that's been weighing on me for a while." He said not meeting my eyes.
"Oh?" I responded.
"There is something I must tell you." He emphasized.
"Okay..." I said starting to get worried.
He looked deep in my eyes and took a deep breath, gathering his courage.
"Keyland I know we haven't known each other very long but I l-" Suddenly he doubled over and ran for the bathroom.
I stood there in shock, as I heard vomiting sounds coming from the bathroom. What was he going to say?
