Advent Drabble 14 - Dancing

Requested by anonymous. 

“You could be a better dancer than that,” Sherlock remarked, when John returned from the dance with his cousin.  

“It’s just a wedding,” John told him. “It’s not the Royal Ballet.”

“Nevertheless, you could be better. You’re so focused on the steps that you miss the point.”

“And what’s the point?”

“The feelings.”

“Sherlock Holmes is going to lecture me about getting in touch with my feelings?” John asked, amused.

“No,” Sherlock retorted grumpily. “I am just saying that, well, to dance properly with someone, you’ve got to have feelings involved. So, you should never dance with anyone but me.”

Aaah, I love a-tiny-bit-possessive Sherlock. I also love his convoluted reasoning and how by "You could be a better dancer than that" he actually means, "I love you and you're mine"!
