If Steve ever decided to ask what she meant by 'creative,' she would happily tell him in detail. It wasn't something she'd ever shared with anyone else, she wasn't the kiss and tell sort, but he was different. Everything with Steve was different, and she would share every part of her life with him that she could.

Her heart went out to him as he explained about his past, and she found herself falling even more in love with him. Waiting for the right partner, she understood that all too well, and she felt so very privileged to have earned a spot on his dance card.

"I wanna dance with you too, sugar," she assured him, pleased with the euphemism he'd chosen and running with it. "It's not difficult to learn the steps. Dancing is a bit like fighting, you go with what feels right. And you'll be my first partner I can really dance with, you know." Without having to worry about draining the life out of him, 'dancing' with Steve would be an entirely new experience for her.
