having grown up in the upper class, rory is no stranger to events such as these. it's why he understands her desire not to wear repeat outfits. he's the same way.

his glass of wine settles onto the table.

"i take it you know how to dance?"

Willa grins a bit when he asks her if she knows how to dance. With a nod, she licks her lips and finishes off her wine.

"Unlike my cooking, my dancing is definitely passable. I took lessons before I had my son, but I haven't done much dancing since then. I'm sure I could fumble my way through a waltz or two." She smirks.

"is that so?"

with a grin, he stands and extends a hand out towards her, inviting as the music continues to play in the background.

Well, this was something she hadn’t expected in the least. But she smiles regardless, extending her hand to place into his.

When she stands, she straightens out her pants and blouse with her free hand and swallows thickly. "I suppose you’ve taken lessons?" She smirks as she rests her other hand on his shoulder.

"a fair few."

more than a fair few, really, as his parents made him take them just so he could fit in at certain events. he's never quite found it useful, at least not until now.

the music plays, flowing in the background as he rests his hand on her hip, swaying to the beat of the song.

he smirks, chuckling softly as he looks into her eyes.

"you're right. definitely passable."

As they dance, Willa smiles up at him, tilting her head. Especially at his comment.

"Thanks, you're alright, too." She winks and grins, before casting her eyes down. "I suppose your lessons came with your upbringing, and not of your own volition?" The question is innocent enough.

Willa had clawed and scratched her way to her riches, she had been born poor, and had been kicked out on her own when her parents found out she was pregnant.

You're already too many mouths to feed, we don't want another.

So Willa had made sure Wyatt would never want or need for anything.

with a softer smile this time, he nods.

"my parents made me take classes."

but it's not said in sadness; quite the opposite, really, as rory has been extremely privileged his entire life, never having to struggle much.

"never thought they'd pay off until now."

Willa smiles back at him and tilts her head. "Oh? Just one dance with me and you're so sure?" She grins and licks her lips, before lifting her hand to brush some hair over her shoulder.

"What are your parents like?" She asks curiously. Anyone who made their son take dancing lessons could go either way on the parenting scale.

"sometimes one dance is all it takes."

he meets her grin with one of his own.

"oh they're actually quite lovely. they just did what they thought was best for me."

which might not have been what rory wanted at times but he knew they've always had good intentions. they mean well, even if they come off a bit strong at times.

Her heart slips a bit, falling out of the chains shes kept it so tightly locked in for so many years — all because of his grin.

And his kindness.

Being easy on the eyes helped, too.

"They sound… nice. Normal, even. Supportive." She smiles softly. "Have you ever wanted a little mind to mold of your own?" Might as well ask the hard hitters.

normal.

he never thought he'd be grateful to have been raised in such a normal setting, at least not until he started working. but nothing about his life has been normal, really, more luxurious than anything.

"asking the tough questions, huh."

he chuckles, looking into her eyes as they continue to sway.

"i've always wanted kids. two's a good number."

Willa smiles up at Rory and bites her lip. "What if one of them was adopted, then?" She asks quietly, her heart pounding softly.

She didn't see the point in beating around the bush at all, if they were interested in one another.

the implication is not lost on him. if anything, it only makes him smile even more.

"i'd love them all the same."

as though they were one of his own.

Her heart flutters a bit harder at the thought of him caring for Wyatt; who enjoyed Rory as a person aleready based on their minimal interaction.

"I had him quite young, you know." She whispers, a bit ashamed. "Is that alright?" Some partners she's had ditched her when they found out how old he was; what had happened to her.

Damaged goods.
