Do people in the twenty-first century still dance?" My heart beat thundered in my ears, far louder than the slow music. "Um," I said, barely able to swallow, my throat had gone so dry. "Sometimes."

Have your dreams ever seemed so tangible as to make you question upon waking if you’d truly only dreamt them?
