[He's not quite teasing as he echoes it - and then they're inside, the music loud enough to drown out almost anything that could be said. But he doesn't need words to pull her towards the dance floor. He knows there's plenty he can't hide from her, can't lie to her about, but some of that he might be able to drown out.
As he starts dancing, movements as graceful as anyone else on the dance floor but a trifle more deliberate, he lets just a little of his hunger show in the way he looks at her. It's a calculated risk, but it looks, he thinks, very close to a different kind of interest, one that ought to keep her off-balance, and move things in the way he'd prefer.]
