You knows it's true happiness when everything fades except your partner and the music you are swaying to. Your cheeks hurts from your smile, but you keep smiling anyway because that is your bodies natural instinct. You know in the back of your mind that your feet hurt, but you dance anyway knowing this may be your only chance. You glance up and see his shiney eyes staring back at you. The same smile that is glued to your face is flashed across his own. Every so often he shakes his head. He won't tell you why, but secretly you know what he is thinking. You tried so hard to look nice for him and with that little shake of the head, you know you succeeded. he isn't a publicly affectionate person, but he surprises you often with quick pecks. His soft lips touch you for a split second, on the forehead, on the cheek, on the lips. His voice is soft, but you can hear him singing along with the music, every once in a while leaning down to whisper a lyric in your ear, at least that's how it seems.
Someone bumps into your back. The peace shatters. You're back on the dancefloor with a hundred people. They laugh and fall and dance they're drunk asses off. It finally hits you that the DJ isn't that great. There was no dessert served after dinner- odd. Your date doesn't like the group of people you came with. The way people are acting is embarrassing to you. You suddenly feel insecure and self-conscious.
Then you look up and see his eyes staring back into yours. All of a sudden, the room fades away and the smile returns to your face. True happiness.
