The slow song made for the perfect opportunity to hold Serena close, keeping one of her hands in his and placing his other on her back. "Another compliment, Seri? Are you feeling okay?" Whispered questions against her ear. Fully taking advantage of their proximity. As one does.
“It’s an old proverb. A lot of things in life come in threes,” she explained. Like survival stuff but she wasn’t going to go into that right now

She was glad their first song was a slow one. It gave them the excuse to be close. It took her back to last summer. Sliding a hand onto his shoulder, Serena bit the inside of her cheek when she felt his breath tickle her ear.
