The Night-Blooming Blossom will not Fade Away | Clint & Jan |

Janet checked herself out in the mirror, smoky eyes lingering along her curves, noting just how they were showcased by her capri pants and shirt. Really, she should write a personal thank you to whomever first had the great idea to use the sweetheart neckline for shirts. For a moment, she paused, giving a little laugh, a smirk, a glance through her long eyelashes as she flirted with her reflection, watching how she looked through a couple of dance steps before deciding that this outfit was indeed perfectly suited for her dance date.

She grabbed her clutch and jacket before heading downstairs and out the main entrance, waiting a few moments before she spotted a cab and hailed it. This was going to be quite fun; she hadn’t been out dancing in far too long. A combination of a hectic lifestyle and a boyfriend who didn’t care for the joys of life could do that to a girl. When she’d been in high school, it had been so easy to find someone to take her out on the weekends, but now that she didn’t have a steady supply of men, that was getting trickier. Really, it had just been good luck this time that Clint had agreed to come out with her.

The club wasn’t the youngest or the loudest, but nobody could really dance in a place like that. The music was unsuited for anything but jumping up and down yelling or grinding against each other. Fine if you were into that, but not if you liked real dancing. The music was jazzy and the drinks ornate, and most of all, the floor was relatively clean of beer spills. The sort of place where you could go and drink a cosmopolitan and dance the foxtrot for hours.

The cab stopped in front of the address and Janet paid the driver. She didn’t see Clint outside, so she headed in, looking about for blondie. He wasn’t too hard to spot; though “incongruous” might not be the right word, she could see he didn’t frequent this club. She sauntered up to him and took him by the arm. “Hell, blue eyes.” She squeezed his arm. “Glad you could make it; I hope I didn’t keep you waiting too long?” She smiled up at him before glancing around the room for a table where they could leave their things, maybe order some drinks before heading onto the dance floor.
