twice is a decision

Wake me up, I've been asleep for too long
Caught in a dream, time goes on and on

And what else are you naturally talented at? Soh wondered, quirking a brow at him playfully, tilting her head with a coy little smile on her face. Now that she was relaxing, she was actually having a good time - but that had been her problem last time, too. Now that she'd been warned about Ace, it was at least easier to keep herself from starting to fall for him - or, as Flora liked to put it, 'catch feelings' for him. But that didn't mean that it stopped the attraction that had drawn her to him in the first place.

No, despite the little voice continually whispering that this wasn't who she really wanted to be dancing with in the back of her mind, a much louder voice petulantly declared that her preferred partner had made it abundantly clear that friendship was all he wanted.

Ace, on the other hand...

Soh glanced around the room, noting at least a few eyes on her. This wasn't the first time that someone had encouraged her to see that there were plenty of people in the world who would want her, and yet she found herself just as flustered this time, too. She wasn't sure how to feel about people watching, hungry to either have her or to be her, so she turned it around on Ace. I think you have your fair share of admirers, too.

Maybe I shouldn't be speaking too soon
Maybe I shouldn't believe in you
