A bit closer maybe?

Hm, it's not too bad. He's not shying away or anything.

...won't this guy get the hint? Must he be gorgeous and clueless?

Dance dance.

He gets the hint now, and moves around to maintain the 'comfortably close' distance (which is closer for him than it is for most people). He's still not shying away, though – is he just being polite, or is he actually interested?

Dance.

Alriiight, then. The song ends and she says, "Oh, I just saw a friend, I'm gonna go over there." And over there she goes.

"Okay," he says, watching as she goes.

He looks around to see if there's anybody he sorta knows who he can go interact with without being rude.

Not someone he knows, but: "Your date ditch you?"

Oh, a random stranger. How interesting.

"Nah – she wasn't actually my date, just someone from my school," he says, turning to face said stranger.

"Well, maybe she didn't have very good taste. Oh, where are my manners, I'm Hans."

"I'm Theo," he says, smiling in response. "Bist du Deutscher?"

"Ja, aber wir sind nicht eng genug, um uns zu duzen. Wir könnten versuchen, das zu berichtigen."

"... I didn't get all that," Theo says in response, sounding a bit out of his depth.

He laughs. "I said that I am, and that we're not close enough to use 'du', but we could try to fix that."

Theo raises an eyebrow. "Oh, really?"

"You could treat me to a dance and we'll find out."

He smiles. Turns out he might want to try fixing it.

Hans is quite satisfied by that! And unlike Cordelia, he isn't trying to be alluring—he just is. For all Theo's grace, Hans' movements have an odd grace of their own, in an almost predatory way. Self assured, that's a better way to describe it. And he doesn't rub himself on Theo like Cordelia did.

Plus, he actually has good dancing skills.

Theo... might not mind being rubbed on by Hans. What with all the allure and grace and self-assuredness, and those dancing skills.

Theo's still pretty good at dancing, himself.

They'll be good at dancing with each other, then. Hans does have a better read on Theo than Cordelia did, enough to know that the rubbing turns out to be welcome.

Well, all Theo can say (well, think) is Well done, Hans.

Dancing is fuuuun.

It is! And Hans is a great dance partner.

At one point the band changes to a song that involves even closer dancing.

Oh wow. Even closer dancing.

Theo is really good at this closer dancing, and is really enjoying himself.

And eventually Hans whispers to Theo's neck: "Would you like to go somewhere more private?"

Okay. That's a thing. Theo isn't at melting point, but the answer is so totally, "Yes."

He brushes his lips very sightly against Theo's skin... then pulls away and starts leading him away.
