We all need a little love and fun now and then with the rise and fall of drama to remind us why we love/like someone. Kick back, find someone and have a little fun.

1. Lazy Day ♥ Why get up when you can laze around in bed with someone and cuddle?
2. Playground games ♥ Remember that fun you had as a child? That special other person brings it back. Tag or Hide and Seek, whatever playground games you want.
3. Firsts ♥ First kiss, first date, first time someone notices the doe eyes pointed their way?
4. Camping ♥ Spend a sweet night under the stars. Nature isn't very private, but who's out in the woods this late at night to see?
5. In the Rain ♥ Since it's not tears from your cheeks, why not go take a natural shower? Maybe you could talk someone into joining you.
6. Slow Dancing ♥ Nothing like music to sweep the rest of the world away, take a few minutes on the dance floor and shake that stress away.
7. WildCard ♥ ~~fuck the police~~ Make up your own!

She can't help but look him over and note how his clothes are clinging to him in all the worst ways. It was quite the sight really and an amused smile curved her lips.

"Dancing in the rain. I do not think I have done that since I was a child. So what dance do you propose we share?"

It was hard to find clothes that fit him right anyway that were not too big in one spot or too tight in another. Suspenders, belts and hemming were close friends of Dorian's. Cause... he hated looking bad despite his words some vanity ran deep in him.

"I find life is easier when the lines blur. Come! A tango! The rain demands it." Maybe he just wanted a warm form against him.

Everyone could stand to have a healthy dose of vanity to them. Helena had some vanity herself, though hers tended to show itself in impeccable clothing, shirts always tucked in, no creases or wrinkles, and she tended to have expensive taste in jewelry. Helena had a deep love of pearls. Saltwater pearls. She wasn't having any of those freshwater pearls.

"A tango, oh you are quite the passionate one today," she quipped with a warm smile. "I would be honored to have this dance with you." And with that, she abandons her umbrella, exposing herself to the rain fully as she steps close to him and extends her hand for him to take.

Ages ago, Dorian could have lavished her with such pearls and gifts shining to her beauty, but when he left Matt's nest for his own safety luxury stayed behind. He no longer had the means to shower women in fine silks and jewels as he once did but that was fine by him. He could show affection in other ways.

"I do have my days." For a man in a 15 year dry spell, he figured that a few passionate dances didn't hurt. "Besides, do we not deserve a bit of fun?" he spoke as he took her hand and closed the space to take their stance. since they had no music, he hummed it.

While Helena had expensive taste in things, mostly jewelry but every so often she had expensive taste in clothing, she didn't always indulge herself. Not in the modern world when she didn't regularly attend parties or balls that would allow her to wear such things. Wearing expensive jewelry or clothing on an every day basis doing mundane things was not something she would do. And if she had any of her jewelry from her life in the Victorian Era, the only things she would even consider wearing on a daily basis, or even a regular basis, would be her string of pearls with a locket containing Christina's photograph in it. She already had her pearl earrings, which she did wear on a daily basis.

Helena smiled charmingly. "You most certainly do. And agreed, we do deserve to have a bit of fun." She took her stance, eyes focused on Dorian's. As he started humming, she began to move in perfect time with the music. While it had been over a century since she'd last danced a tango, or really danced at all, she still remembered the steps of the dance.

had he thought ahead and it not been raining he might have brought the record player out and then they could have had one hell of a tango, luckily he wouldn't run out of breath or be winded, breathing was an option for him one he usually took to feel more alive but he would not run out of energy yet.

He moved in perfect steps with her, He was clearly no stranger to this dance. Dances used to irritate him as he had mostly been arm candy and a dance partner for over a century and a half before he put his foot down. It was when Disco became popular that he started to miss the balls and masquerades of old and would start to dance around the kitchen with Alexis to keep himself happy and grounded. Now it was a past time and not forced.

He looked at her with a curiously focused look as he hummed and moved with her, finally he dipped he back. Looking down into her eyes, just for a moment.

Unlike Dorian, Helena had always enjoyed dances. She actually knew both men's and women's parts to several dances, largely because her sister had always made her dance the men's part when she needed rehearsal before a ball or masquerade she was attending. Knowing both parts to dances did come in handy depending upon who her dance partner was. Though she let Dorian dance the lead here. She did tend to miss those balls and masquerades of old, but she did enjoy whenever she was able to embrace them in the modern time.

Helena noticed that curiously focused look he had, and it did pique her interest. As he dipped her back, she gazed back into his eyes, some curiosity filling her own. She did wonder what he was thinking about. Even as she wondered about this, the thoughts weren't distracting her from the dance. There was a lot to be said about muscle memory.

"Is there something on your mind, darling?" The term of endearment was not out of the ordinary. Helena tended to call anyone she liked and trusted 'darling'. And, of course, as it was raining, her long hair was now wet, strands of it sticking to her neck. Her blouse was also quite wet and clinging to her thin frame.
