I'm not worried about a little stepping on toes~

[His hand slides up Hurricane's thigh quite pointedly, and he goes to grasp at his fingers, pulling him gently as he gracefully gets to his feet. Eichi then looks up to the piano player.]

Can I get something spicy?

[crossmyheartandhope]

[oh]

[That was. Pretty definitely not an accident. He flushes deeper, this time, and comes to his feet when he's urged to stand]

Spicy? I don't, like - I don't know how to tango or nothing.

[syckophant]

Oh, it's easy. You've seen it performed, haven't you? It's as it looks, and you only need to follow my lead.

[He grins, tugging Hurricane against his body and holding him by his waist.]

I'll stick to spinning you about, if that helps~

[crossmyheartandhope]

[His face goes a little darker, as Eichi tugs him in, but he gets his arm up to set a hand carefully on Eichi's shoulder]

Uh... sure. I'll try to keep up.

[syckophant]

[Eichi goes to grasp for Hurricane's free hand, then he tries to gently guide Hurricane by pushing his right leg forward, nudging Hurricane's left leg.]

I will lead. And I start with my right leg, so you should start with your left. I can switch that if you are more comfortable the other way around, but this is common. Maybe not with everyone, but for myself and those I have danced with before.

[crossmyheartandhope]

That's fine by me. I don't got a preference.

[He takes direction well enough; he goes where he's urged, letting himself be guided]

[syckophant]

Wonderful~

[Eichi is gentle in his guidance, but firm. It makes it easy to get to the fun part of a tango; the part where they can make things up and spin and dip. And Eichi does end on a dip, his hand holding the two of them close by Hurricane's waist.]

Ahah! Wasn't that fun?

[crossmyheartandhope]

[He isn't actually that bad, for a beginner. He's light on his feet, and he likes to move; by the time they finish, he's bright-eyed and a little breathless. He did not, in fact, step on Eichi's feet.]

Dude. That was awesome.

[syckophant]

Hahah! You did well!

[Eichi is actually pretty impressed with not having his feet stepped on? He doesn't usually dance with beginners, but he'd expected it to be harder. He continues to hold Hurricane close once they pull up, and Eichi grins at him.]

It's exhilarating, dancing. What a wonderful way to get to be close to someone else's body.

[And Eichi is definitely that, with his thigh up against Hurricane's.]

[crossmyheartandhope]

[Yes, he is. Suddenly very aware of Eichi's thigh against his, thanks]

Oh. Uh.

I-is it?

[syckophant]

...

[Eichi raises a brow, curious. He's not sure how to read Hurricane, used to people who overreact so much. What would work in the movies? Aha!

After a moment of thought, Eichi goes to tip Hurricane's head up to meet his gaze, a hand on Hurricane's chin.]

That it is. And you're looking so lovely tonight, how could I resist wanting to get nearer to you?

[crossmyheartandhope]

It's just a skirt. I ain't even that dressed up or nothing.

[But he doesn't pull away from the hand on his chin - tips his head up into the touch a little, unconsciously.]

[syckophant]

A skirt flatters what is already there.

[He seems to search Hurricane's face for a moment, before he leans in to try to gently brush his lips against Hurricane's.]

[crossmyheartandhope]

[oh]

[That's]

[Quite nice, actually]

[He is very, very still for a long couple of seconds - and then he leans up and into the kiss]

[syckophant]

[Eichi almost begins to think it was a mistake to try kissing Hurricane when he goes still, but rethinks it a little when the kiss is finally returned. He deepens the kiss a little bit, just to test the waters, his forked tongue lapping gently against Hurricane's lips before he finally breaks the kiss.]

...You liked that too, right?

[crossmyheartandhope]

[Licks at his lips, a little self-consciously. Then, kind of breathless and decidedly red in the face:]

...yeah.

[syckophant]

Fufufu~

I remember we kissed... was it Valentine's day? Or Christmas? You were so cute.

[He slides his hand down the small of Hurricane's back, grinning.]

I remember thinking how I'd like to take you to bed.

[crossmyheartandhope]

[The flush goes even darker; the hand still on Eichi's shoulder is fiddling with the collar of his shirt, absently, with just the tips of his fingers.]

Wh-what, like. For real?

[syckophant]

Mm hmm~ [Eichi nods, grinning at Hurricane.]

...Why do you seem so unbelieving? I find you attractive. I thought I made it obvious~

[crossmyheartandhope]

I dunno. You're just, like. Real pretty?

And classy and stuff.

[Read: way, way out of his league]

[syckophant]

[Eichi is not used to dealing with people who are not idols so this kind of blindsides him, and he stares stupidly at Hurricane for a moment before laughing a little.]

Oho? And why should that matter? I have eyes, just like anyone else! And you're attractive, physically of course, but also.... hm. In another way. The way you act, present yourself, that sort of thing.

You felt good on my lips, is what I'm saying.

Besides. I'm not all that classy. I just have a lot to say and am used to having too much money.

[crossmyheartandhope]

Yeah, well.

[He pauses - glances to the side, like somehow not looking at Eichi's face will make him less embarrassed.]

You coulda fooled me.

With the being classy thing, I mean. The way you say stuff is... [He gropes for words for a seconds or two. Finally comes out with:] I like it.

[syckophant]

[That's odd. He supposes in some way he's "classy", but he's also... not. Eichi is just who he is? He pauses, thinking a little.]

I have been hearing that lately. I wonder what it is... [Eichi is not socially smart enough to Get It, even if he did realize that Fox Spoke Like Him, at least somewhat.] Well! Is that our only barrier? That you think I speak too nicely? I could switch it up, if you'd prefer.

My vocabulary extends beyond "classy"~

[crossmyheartandhope]

Oh. Uh.

No, dude, you do you. I just - was surprised, is all.

[syckophant]

[Eichi reaches up to brush some hair from Hurricane's forehead.]

So would you like to play with me for just a night? Just for fun...? To see how it goes?
