«it had been a long time since she'd been this close to a man. Hugo smelt of party: a little alcohol, a touch of tobacco and, underneath that, some very luxurious aftershave. Sarah wished she could dislike it but was grateful she didn't. he had her firmly to him, one hand on her back, the other holding her hand. she put her own free hand on his shoulder and they danced.
once she thought she felt his cheek on her hair but then dismissed the idea. why would he do that? but the thought made something in her respond. it was probably because she was a healthy young woman who hadn't been in a relationship for a long time. her body was bound to respond to a man who held her close. once she'd sorted this out she relaxed into the dance, and even closed her eyes. this was nice!»
i wish i could feel something like this too. yup.
