He hadn't expected to feel this way. Not after so much time apart. Of course he had been happy to see her again. He was always happy to see Felicity with her infectious smile and clever quips. She had a natural way of making everything better just by being present.

But in this moment, dancing so close, it's hard not to stare at just how beautiful she looks. It's not that she's not normally, but dressed up she's gone from gorgeous to breathtaking and it's hard to remember that this was the same woman he'd been trading puns with in the Arrow Team headquarters earlier that day.

She looks away from him and he realizes that he's probably been staring for a moment too long. He swallows, averting his eyes as well for a moment and scanning the crowd of couples swaying to the music. He tries to make a joke to break the awkwardness.

"I knew ballroom dancing as an elective would come in handy some day."
