Terra noticed the slight disappointment in his tone which pulled her gaze to his. She watched him though as always her stare wasn’t overly pressing. This time it was curious, as if drinking in the sight of him for the first time. She hears his explanation and realizes that her question came from nowhere and probably through Sephiroth off.
“I would like that but… um…” Terra begins to debate if she should say more. It’s obvious that something else is eating at her thoughts.
She shook her head slowly, soft green curls bouncing from the effort. She might need something warmer to step out on deck but that thought quickly drifted away.
“I’m sorry.” Her voice was soft, her fingers moving to rest in her lap. “That isn’t what I actually meant to ask.” There was a soft tremble to her voice, a sound so subtle that anyone else might have missed it. Terra was nervous. “I wanted to ask for a dance.” Even though he said that dancing wasn’t the sort of activity he enjoyed. It was a very selfish wish of hers but she thought, just maybe, he’d make this one exception.
Dancing? Who knows maybe?
