"For a girl whose been voted Prom Queen, dancing with me at the envy of others, and being complimented on your looks, you don't smile much do you? not even a little bit....."

"Right you are." Tabitha seemed to say out of the contemptuous glare of her eyes. The peaceful mindset she had been captured in merely five seconds ago had withered away, and now things were starting to drag on. "You are either still in shock for being Prom Queen, you didn't want to come and want to leave the dance floor, it's something I said, or I'm not good enough for you," said Adam, a strange sort of smile plastered on his lips, "I'll tell you what, you chose a guy you want to be with, and I'll switch places with him, since we're supposed to be setting this dance off before everyone else joins in..."

What on earth was he talking about now? Switch places? It was worse enough that she had to dance with him. Dancing with anyone else was like heresy in her book. Before she could utter a word, he added, "If your sticking with me, then it would be my pleasure, but do stop looking down or you may trip your feet up. You can either look sideways and lean against my upper chest or look at me like before, though be warned, once everyone else joins in, the tempo will get faster...".

Tabitha gave a small acknowledging nod, and did as he said. As much as she desired to, she didn't look down. Instead, her eyes gazed upward. The strange sound-proof field was still around them as the music continued to play. As she accumulated boredom from her feet moving in the same side-stepped pattern, her focus switched from the dance to the magic that was around her. Apparently, Adam was psychic, he was able to open the window with his mind, and he had the ability to read her mind. At least, that's what her crazy brain was telling her. Despite her skepticism and willingness to believe that it was all a dream, he had disproved her opinion using empathy. With all the data aligned in her head, Tabitha was still reluctant to have faith in the fact that he had some sort of super-powers. Just one more demonstration of his ghastly abilities, and maybe she would have confidence in the fact that he was something other than normal. Although, he had clearly shown her that already with his constant gab...

As if someone had suddenly taken a match and lit it inside her mind, Tabitha had a fortuitous thought burn inside her head. The tiny spark that was the thought, grew bigger, and her ingenious thought turned into instant action.
"I guess I'll stay with you," she spoke. She waited a couple seconds and then muttered, "I wish this was a different song, though. This one's dragging on..."

With his intuitive sense in all things conversation, Tabitha was sure he had managed to hear her. Of course, it wasn't that hard to hear a whisper in a sound-proof dome. If her plan was working, she knew that her dancing partner would be willing to comply with her subtle demands. With his pretentious display in supernatural abilities, he would be able to change the song without causing tension in the audience. The students would act as if the new song had been playing the whole time. This simple yet subtle test would finally settle her inquisitiveness towards him. The test would also reveal his intelligence. He was very charismatic. Every sentence he spoke, Tabitha could tell he was speaking his mind. If he was cunning and receptive to her trick, he would understand that she was delicately manipulating him.
