Excerpt from the related story (found in Kiri's Story - The Summer's Eve Ball):
“Sir, I propose a challenge.”
“What kind of challenge?” Bryan turned back to her, his attention suddenly refocusing.
“A tango. You can obviously dance, and I haven't had a chance to show much of my skill this evening. I challenge you, Bryan, to a dance duel.”
“A... Dance duel?”
“Yes. No cheating – you have to put your all into it!”
“Alright,” Bryan looked at the tiny redhead, wondering how she could be so quick to change from shy and reserved to a tango, of all things. “Challenge accepted.”
When the music finished and the band began to prepare the next song, Bryan reached out a large hand towards Kiri, beckoning her into the dance.
As the first beats of the tempo struck, Kiri struck her pose. Tapping her heel twice, she spun into his outstretched hand, and watched with pleasure as his facade melted, a look of shock passing over his features before he regained his composure. This would be fun.
