Mistoffelees sat back in the tunnel he called his home. She would be coming soon. Coming to dance. He loved her dancing very much. But he loved her even more.
Victoria
Even the whisper of the name in his ear made his heart race.
Misto sat there for what seemed like hours, to him anyway. It was actually more like ten minutes. Finally, the white queen arrived.
She began in a striking pose, dancing with every bit of spirit in her beautiful self. This was how she expressed her emotion. Not with words, with steps.
Misto started to go into a trancelike state. He swayed from side to side with the music. Then, without knowing it, he stood and slowly walked up behind the beauty. Her arms were outstretched now. Misto stood directly behind her, stretched his arms out as well, and held her hands. Frightened but not moving from her spot, Victoria turned her head. The handsome white face looking back at her was warm and inviting. Seeing this was Misto, Vicki gave a nervous smile and relaxed a bit.
She was soon completely at ease with him. She allowed him to pick her up and twirl her around. They were just two fast streaks dancing, spinning, turning, and performing beautiful leaps.
After a while, Mistoffelees was beginning to leave his trance. He suddenly became very self-conscious and couldn’t believe what he was doing: dancing with his crush?! They were now at the position from the beginning of the dance, except their arms weren’t outstretched.
A bunch of thoughts started swirling around in Misto’s head. “What if she thinks I’m a horrible dancer? She probably thinks I’m a psycho now. Does she like me or was she just dancing with me? Does dancing mean anything?”
Then he did something even he himself never thought he’d do; he gave Vicki a passionate kiss. Strangely enough, she didn’t stop him nor did she pull away. Once it ended, Misto checked to see if it had really happened. He had a pulse; he wasn’t dead. He pinched himself; he wasn’t asleep. But now he was starting to feel lightheaded. ‘She probably thinks I’m an idiot now’
“Thanks for that Misto. I’ve been waiting for it for a long time.”
The End
