There was an obvious air of familiarity as Colin took up his form and slowly guided Hazel into the dance, but the woman was grateful for the sense of leadership he bestowed upon her until she understood the steps. She listened to the steady thrum of energy in the air of the bar, the thump-thump of their heartbeats in unison, and the way his voice lilted over the explanation he proffered her. She let her body sway with his, each step causing them to brush chests or hips, as Hazel tried not to overthink each step or possible misstep as her gaze strayed from his to her feet every so often. She was incredibly elated when his guidance led them successfully through a slow but sensual dance.<br/><br/>"The piano is lovely. I don't mind older music at all, and some of it I even like," she teases quietly. "Solos are usually a favorite of mine, depending on the instrument. Piano is a close second, I suppose, but violin is my personal favorite," she admits with a smile as they continue matching their steps in time with the song. As it slows, beginning to gradually fade, she meets his gaze. Her brows raise the faintest bit and she shares a sly, mischievous smile.<br/><br/>"Honestly?" She paused. "I am. I really appreciate the invitation, so.. thank you. I think.. I think dancing isn't as, ah, hard as I believed it to be." The song finally ended and they parted, the sudden absence of his tall figure against hers leaving her feeling warm and unsteady, which she'd never admit aloud. How long had it been since she'd been held, even in a simple embrace? Exhaling slowly, to regain the balance she sought so desperately often, Hazel watched as he raised her hand to his lips. The subtle warmth of his breath on her skin as he kissed her hand in departing grace left a shiver that traversed her body swiftly. She gave a short and sweet curtsey, eyes roaming Colin's face.<br/><br/>"The truth is that I'm a fast learner. And you are apparently a very impressive teacher, if I did as well as you say." Hazel- whether consciously or unconsciously- was still relatively close to Colin's personal space, her chin tilted up slightly so that she could appraise his gaze more evenly. Unfortunately- fortunately?-  for Hazel, she could hear almost anything in vicinity whether she wanted to or not. And the way things were sounding, Colin and herself were going to be abandoned on the dance floor relatively soon. Eyes still on his, she shared a bemused and slightly awkward smile with Colin, trying her best not to look over her shoulder towards where Brock and Chance were standing<i>very </i>closely.
