"Of course not!" Came Estelle's quick reply. "Okay, well, the man leads, so first, you move your right foot to the right, and your left foot follows. My steps are the same, just opposite."

Yuri moved forward, not at all with grace or refinement. He moved as if he were walking. Thankfully, he was far past the awkward stage of adolescence. "How's that?"

"Oh, well, it should probably be... Smoother," she replied, biting her lip. "Here, I'll lead and you follow." Estelle found herself relaxing slightly the more time she spent with him, strangely enough. He was one of her closest friends, after all.

"Wow, Estelle taking charge. I think I'm falling in love," he teased, following her lead rather mechanically. Yuri could be smooth with words but he definitely wasn't when it came to dancing.

"Stop it!" She reprimanded quickly. She just prayed he couldn't see her blush. Estelle squeezed his shoulder softly, slowing her steps down. "You're supposed to relax. The steps should be... Flowing."

Yuri laughed but obeyed all the same. He tried to focus on her lead, her direction. He closed his eyes, hoping that would help a little. Rather than saying anything, he held her closer.

Estelle found herself leaning against him almost instinctively, relaxing further as she did so. And his steps did seem to be becoming a little smoother, or perhaps she was just having trouble paying attention now.

"See? You're a good teacher," Yuri muttered, still trying to go with the flow the best he could. This definitely wasn't his thing. He definitely wasn't going to be doing this again.

She wasn't so sure about that, but she went with it anyway. "Thank you. You're a good student, though, so it makes it easy!" This dance was much more relaxed than anything she'd ever attended, though. It was... Nice.

"Good student, huh? I knew it." He tried to lead, now, as he started to understand the mechanics of slow-dancing. If this dance were any faster, he might have stepped on some toes.

So Estelle followed, a part that was almost like second nature to her. She'd never really been taught to lead in any of her lessons. She smiled at Yuri, nodding. "Yes! Imagine what you could do if you paid attention!"

"Now that ain't happening." Yuri smiled as he broke away to twirl Estelle around. Like in the movies!
