I love this particular move of his.  It's almost feminine, delicate - his hands splayed out.  This was one of the unbalancing things about him.  He did things up there that were typically reserved for women ... at least at that time.  He bumped, ground, and wiggled his hips ... all while still maintaining his masculinity, but still: it was very very unbalancing stuff.  And the best part of it was none of it was self-conscious.  This was just how he felt like moving.

Thoughtful.

He's a kid.  Starting to grow into his beauty.  But not owning it yet.  But he's almost there ... almost ...
