Ah, that was an interesting question and also? Valid.
Henry had been taught to lead from a very young age, he could do it effortlessly. There was no real hesitance on Henry's part though of course as long as Alex was alright with following. "I could ballroom dance in my sleep, so I will lead. I am not opposed to not leading, but I figure I can show you the ropes and and then when you are comfortable, you can then take over if you wish. But at the very least it will prevent us from barrelling against the other dancers."
The hand felt good, felt right in his own. He tried not to think about exactly how right it felt, as Henry was attempting to be circumspect in his own expectations, schooling himself to guard against any disappointment.
This was a flirtation right? Nothing more-- and there was a part of himself that felt like if he grew too attached, then this would be all the worse for him when he went back to the real world and had to go back to being the Prince again.
