[ With utter seriousness, ] Your voice does such things to me.
[ Yesssss, go 80% success rate. He grins as he kicks off his boots and socks, as directed, and walks over, avoiding the spots he can tell are still wet. ]
What're we dancin' to?

[ His clothes are off, joining the pile on the floor, and he's back on the bed. He pauses, first, to press a kiss to her stomach, then another between here breasts, and a last one on her lips. ]
You already know all my weaknesses, anyway.

Something you know all the words to. [ And he's still wearing a cheeky sort of grin. ]

I like your voice. [ He says it plainly, no joking or irony or anything. ]
[ He shrugs. ] I may have heard that rumor.
[ Stepping closer, he gives her a reassuring smile. ] We can just dance, if you want. 'Sides, I'm, like, eighty percent sure I'm a better partner than a mop.

[ He lets out a breath, hands moving to pull her against him. ]
See? There's one.
See? There's one.
[ He listens to the song for a bit (and if he thinks it's cheesy, he definitely won't say anything -- he doesn't want to embarrass her into withdrawing), before taking her hand in his, placing the other on her hip. He moves them into a dance -- just a simple one, swaying in time with the music. ]
So, is this what you've been doing all those times you stayed behind to clean? Dance without me?

[ Damn, that felt good, and the feel of her breath against his ear makes him shiver involuntarily. He tips his head down, tongue running up her neck, then murmurs against her skin. ]
You're gettin' awful dangerous, y'know?
You're gettin' awful dangerous, y'know?
Yeah, but you've totally been holdin' out on me.
[ He says it in a good-natured tone, though. He still thinks catching her singing and dancing was the cutest damn thing he'd ever seen. ]

[ He hums his approval, lips against her neck. He answers in kind by lightly scraping his teeth along her skin. ]
Dangerous to me, I mean.
Dangerous to me, I mean.
[ He grins all the more when he hears her, and for once, he's silent. He really does like her voice, likes that she's comfortable enough around him to hum or sing or dance.
He was used to doing a lot of stuff by himself for so long, but it's nice as hell to have a partner. ]
