[ The previous dance is winding down. The difference between those dancers' graceful steps and his fiancée's wooden pose isn't lost on him, but there's nothing worrying about it. If there's anyone who appreciates the need for practice, it's Claire; and besides their first dance could just be them spinning in circles in a corner and he'd be happy.

But - she looks ready to learn, and he knows she can. The steps might take some explanation but the position is best taught by feel. Probably. It's how he's decided to go at it, anyway, cupping her right hand at the wrist with his left and trailing the pads of his fingertips up between her knuckle bones to cover her fingers. He gently pulls that hand away and hold it out by their side. His right hand goes to the proper position just below her shoulder blades - although it detours along her waist and to the small of her back first. Which just leaves her left hand still resting on his heart. ]


You can put your other hand on my shoulder if you like. I don't mind. We look pretty swell as it is. [ The grin should tell her it's got nothing to do with that. Although he does think they're undoubtedly the best looking couple in the room based on her presence alone. ]
