Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })So Alice and Bob, who either don't know each other very well, or are Just Friends, are attending some fancy party. For some reason, they wind up dancing to some slow romantic song that requires waltzing or some other dance typified by close body contact. Hey, that's ok, nothing special — except she's starting to blush, and he's getting all nervous. Could it be? Are they in love? This often pops up during high school dances and fancy parties, the kind with hooped skirts and masks. For some reason, waltzing with a friend, or friend-of-a-friend, always winds up with one or both participants acquiring (or realizing) feelings of love towards the other, as though it were some kind of movement-driven truth/love spell. Often prefaced by an observation that She Cleans Up Nicely, and frequently occurs during a High-School Dance, though it is by no means exclusive to teenagers. Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_2'); })A subtrope of Dances and Balls, obviously. When adding examples, keep in mind that this trope is about the dance being the first indication of romance between the dancers, not just a romantic dance between two people who are in love (or in denial). Chances are a Love Theme will be playing. Compare Mating Dance, Convenient Slow Dance, Flight of Romance. Examples: |

Played with in a complicated way in Sherlock. At John's wedding, Sherlock makes friends with a very flirty bridesmaid who fancies him and, when he rejects her, starts abusing his Sherlock Scan abilities to make him act as her wingman. Eventually, he confesses to her that he secretly loves dancing, but no-one must ever know. She asks to see him dance, so he performs a few graceful moves for her (rather than with her), which she adores. In the next episode, John finds out, to his horror, that despite Sherlock's Asexuality the bridesmaid is now his girlfriend, walking around his house with no underwear and even sneaking up on him when he's in the bath. Eventually we find out that Sherlock in fact deliberately manipulated the whole situation in order to bait her as a Honey Trap, needing her to solve a case - and that he couldn't even bring himself to do anything more than kiss her. It seems the decision to have him dance for her rather than with her was Foreshadowing this eventual twist. | |

Miss Saigon is another atypical variation; Kim and Chris dance together, which seems to be the usual practice in the club before going off with a client, but there's only a hint of affection; they don't fall deeply in love until afterwards, and the scene that looks like a typical Dance of Romance is the reprise of the song they danced to when they first met. | |

In The Artist, when George and Peppy film the dancing scene for "A German Affair", they keep screwing up the takes because they can't stop staring at each other or making each other laugh. It culminates in a Held Gaze, after which a visibly unsettled George walks off the set. In the film's screenplay, this is actually pointed to as the precise moment where the two fall in love. | |

Torchwood has the slow dance in 1942 between Jack and the real Captain Jack Harkness after a full episode of romantic tension, culminating in one of the longest gay kisses ever shown on TV. Also a Tear Jerker since Jack is forced to return to his own time immediately after the kiss, and the last image he sees is the other Jack saluting him | |

Karma and Amy's dance at Farrah's wedding reception in the season one finale of Faking It. While not the slow, romantic dance usually seen, the wild, carefree manner in which they dance to 'their song', as though they're the only ones in the room, makes it clear to everyone present that they have feelings for each other. | |

The Vampire Diaries: In the episode "Miss Mystic Falls" 150+ year old vampire Damon Salvatore steps in to dance with his brother's human girlfriend, Elena Gilbert when Stefan fails to show up. You can see it in his eyes that this is the moment he realizes he loves her, and she appears somewhat affected as well. Stefan's dance with Elena's doppelganger, Katherine Pierce, is this as well, both in the past and in the present. |

While Aang's feelings for Katara had been somewhere on the spectrum between Precocious Crush and Unrequited Love for quite a while, their dance scene in "The Headband" was the first time it looked like his attraction might be reciprocated. (A certain trip through a cave notwithstanding.) | |

There's a cute one in the 1987 film adaptation of Anne of Avonlea between Anne and Gilbert. It deeply affects Anne, who jerks away quickly after a few moments and makes an excuse to leave. Up until that point, she'd been oblivious to both Gilbert's feelings for her and her own feelings for him. She still remains oblivious to her feelings for him for a few more years. | |

A common occurrence on Glee, which makes sense since it's a musical show. All the major (and most minor) couples have had falling in love duets and the duets are usually accompanied by some dancing. | |

Descendants of Darkness: For Hisoka and Tsubaki, the start of their interaction consists of her bumping into him and then getting him to dance with her. Cue slow, romantic music, and Gaussian Girl effects as they stare into each other's eyes. | |

Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street has an interesting variation. Mrs. Lovett is interested in Sweeney for the entire first half, but he's totally oblivious. Then come "A Little Priest", he notices her in a different light and they waltz. The catch? This sudden romantic interest is due to her...unsual idea of how to dispose of the body of the man he just killed. | |

Though she is initially reluctant, Prince Digby coxes Princess Althea into sharing a unique version of this in The Light Princess. The fact that Althea is constantly floating in the air complicates matters somewhat, but the dance is accomplished by Digby holding either her hands, her ankles, or the long, trailing ribbons tied to her wrists and waist to keep her from floating away. | |

Sym-Bionic Titan: After Ilana misses the dance she worked so hard on (to set up the theme, as it reminded her of her home planet). Lance decides to cheer her up by putting on a hat and sharing a dance with her. Jason and Maribel's dance from earlier (after said couple abandoned them earlier) could be seen as this, although not the dance between Kimmy and her ex-boyfriend Brandon. | |

The Magic World Ball chapters of Mahou Sensei Negima! had two sets of these going with variations. The straight one is Kotaro/Natsumi, and the oddball one being Negi/Asuna, because it isn't really Asuna, but her doppleganger Shiori. However, by that point Shiori was already developing feelings for Negi. | |

Almasy and Katherine's dance in The English Patient film. It's romantic in that the mutual attraction between the two becomes apparent, but it is also extremely uncomfortable because of the sheer intensity of their connection coupled with the fact that Katherine is another man's wife.

In The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel I, Rean has the option to dance with the ladies at the climax of the game if he has a high bonding affinity with them. For the guys however, they skip out on the dancing and go straight to watching the other people dance while they just sit down in the distance. In Cold Steel III, there's another dance near the end of the penultimate chapter that involves all the old and new main characters, and the one between Deuteragonists Juna and Kurt certainly gives off these vibes, in contrast to that of their classmates Ash and Musse, which has some more hilarious expressions. |

Candy Candy has three moments like those: One of the most Ship Tease-ladden moments for Candy and Anthony was their dance in the Andree Big Fancy House. Even more so because they were this close to miss it thanks to Eliza and Neil's machinations. The sight of Candy dancing with Tony in a Pimped-Out Dress that belonged to his Missing Mom sent Eliza into a sobbing fit. In that same episode Candy also dances with Anthony's cousin Archie, but that one goes more into Funny Moments as she steps on his foot and he makes a really hilarious face. (Later, he's briefly in Unrequited Love with her... before getting together with her best friend Annie. Also, one of the first hints about Stear and Patty's mutual growing feelings was their... very Adorkable dance in the School Festival. Where they both proved to be Blind Without Them, but still tried to go through it. Too bad he perishes in World War I, leaving her all heartbroken. |

Subverted in an episode from How I Met Your Mother when Robin, having just used her "truth voice" to Lily about wanting to get back with Barney, gets pulled into a dance with him to "show these people in Cleveland how it's done." When the ending has them so close they're almost kissing, they are interrupted by a phone call from Barney's ex, Nora, who he had tried calling. She feeds him lines to say that are really how she is feeling which, unfortunately, brings the Barney and Nora back together. | |

Beauty and the Beast is one of the most famous examples as they dance to "Beauty and The Beast". | |

Possibly in Frasier in the episode where Niles dances with Daphne. Subverted in that he's already in love with her and she thinks they're just putting on a show to make the other guests stop pitying Niles but he does refer back to it as a significant moment for them in later episodes. | |

Friends Monica and Chandler have an off-screen one when Chandler realized Monica was the woman he "wanted to dance all his dances with." | |

In EarthBound Beginnings, Ninten and Ana dance together when they're alone in a healing house, after which Ana asks Ninten if he loves her. Due to technical limitations, the "dance" itself involves the two of them moving around the room using their walking sprites. | |

West Side Story during the dance at the gym. Tony and Maria see each other for the first time and dance. It's a cha-cha, not a waltz, but it fits. | |

Subverted in the 2014 French-German La Belle et la Bête. Belle's dance with the Beast is a clear homage to the Dance of Romance in the Disney adaptation listed above, but given that Belle asks the Beast to dance only because she wants to make a deal with him to see her family again and that the dance ends with the Beast refusing to honor his end of the deal and Belle shouting at him that he disgusts her in response, it ultimately doesn't turn out very romantic. | |

Tiana and Naveen in The Princess and the Frog; "If I can mince, you can dance." (Unique in that they are frogs when they dance, rather than humans.) | |
