“I don’t know,” she muttered, looking uncertain. “Let’s just leave.” “You want to dance?” I prodded. “I’ll get you anything you want.” “How are you going to do that?” “I get anything I want,” I stated quite plainly. She laughed under her breath, probably thinking I was joking, and I went weak for a moment, the light in her eyes the most beautiful thing I’d seen in a long time.”
