I never thought I would see Marcus

Then Marcus walked over.

He stopped in front of me and smiled.

“Hey.”

I glanced behind me, honestly convinced he must be talking to someone else.

He noticed and let out a quiet laugh. “No, definitely you.”

“That’s brave,” I said.

He tilted his head slightly. “You hiding over here?”

“Is it hiding if everyone can see me?”

His expression softened.

“Fair point,” he said. Then he held out his hand. “Would you like to dance?”
