He looked up, and their eyes met. Havers was not precisely smiling, but gazing at him with dark, watchful intensity. A rather woozy sensation spread through him, and his heart beat erratically. Held with a hand’s span of distance between their chests as they danced, he was still close enough to smell the soap on Havers’ warm skin.

cheek to cheek- austin butler
Tumblr media
based off: cheek to cheek by frank sinatra
word count: 846
warnings: none
pairing: austin butler x fem!reader
just two hours ago, you were walking down an aisle with a bouquet in hand, your friends and family on one side and austin’s on the other, watching with tears in their eyes.
just two hours ago, austin was wiping tears from his eyes as you exchanged vows and promised to be with each other forever.
you knew that nothing really changed, but being mrs. austin butler seemed to fulfill you in a way you never expected. now, at your reception, you were taking in everything around you. from the beautifully decorated room to the tall, gorgeous cake waiting to be cut, your wedding day was going perfectly.
you were simply standing there, watching as guests danced with each other when you felt an arm wrap around your waist.
“hi wife,” austin said, his voice alone making your stomach flutter.
“hi husband,” you responded, looking up at him to meet his love-filled eyes.
god, you were so in love with him.
you planted a kiss on his lips, but he soon pulled away at the sound of one of your favourite songs beginning to play.
austin’s hand slipped from your waist down to your hand and he picked it up fondly.
“may i have this dance?” he asked.
you nodded in response before he placed a kiss on the back of your hand, pulling you onto the dance floor. the band began to play as you positioned yourself with your arms around austin’s neck.
heaven, i’m in heaven
and my heart beats so that i can hardly speak
the lyrics resonated through the room as your head rested on his shoulder, both of you swaying gently. you could feel him looking down at you and when you met his eyes, it felt as though you were about to go into cardiac arrest. through the years, austin has never failed to make you nervous.
and i seem to find the happiness i seek
when we're out together dancing cheek to cheek
a smile spread on his face, and it spread onto yours, causing you both to be smiling at each other like idiots, but you wouldn’t have it any other way. you knew others were watching you dance, yet it felt like the entire world slipped away as you danced together.
yes, heaven, i'm in heaven
and the cares that hung around me through the week
seem to vanish like a gambler's lucky streak
when we're out together dancing cheek to cheek
austin finally closed the gap by kissing you on the lips. you pulled him even closer until you were fully pressed up against each other. the kiss brought you back to everything you’d been through, from your first kiss to his proposal on the beach. you remembered how much you’d doubted your worth when it had happened, wondering if you should marry him when someone better could come around at any minute. he always assured you there was no one else he wanted to be with other than you. you remembered how stressful the wedding planning had been and how leading up to the event, everything seemed to be going wrong. as austin pulled away, you were brought back. as you held him close, you felt all your tension ease away.
oh i love to climb a mountain
and reach the highest peak
but it doesn't thrill me half as much
as dancing cheek to cheek
your slow dance picked up its pace when austin pushed you away and spun you around. when you were back in his arms, he couldn't help but stare at you. your cheeks began to heat up as he smiled at you.
oh I love to go out fishing
in a river or a creek
but I don't enjoy it half as much
as dancing cheek to cheek
you buried your head in the nook of his neck as the song was reaching its end. as you swayed gently, you could feel the rhythmic rise and fall of his chest. his body provided warmth to yours against the air-conditioned room. his arms were wrapped around your waist and when he shifted their position slightly, you felt the cold metal of his wedding band graze your open back. the reminder caused you to start fidgeting with your own ring. you’d never been big on jewelry and often struggled to wear rings for long periods of time, yet with this one, you hoped you’d never have to take it off.
now mama dance with me
i want my arms about you
that charm about you
will carry me through
you placed small kisses along his neck before pulling away, a large smile adorning your face as you looked up at your husband.
“what is it?” he asked, smiling just as large as you were.
“i love you,” you said.
“i love you too,” he responded, leaning forward to connect your lips yet again.
you continued to sway, entangled with each other, and as you appreciated everything about him, you couldn’t help but think,
heaven, i’m in heaven.

A lot of adjectives come to mind when one mentions Fred Astaire: debonair, poised, elegant, captivating. And nouns too, especially grace, sophistication and talent. Fred Astaire is regarded by many as the greatest popular music dancer of all time. Astaire is usually remembered for his pairings with Ginger Rogers, who starred in several films with him, including Swing Time (1936).
Light on his feet, Fred Astaire revolutionized the movie musical with his elegant and seemingly effortless dance style. He may have made dancing look easy, but he was a well-known perfectionist, and his work was the product of endless hours of practice.
Astaire started performing as a child, partnering up with his older sister Adele. The two toured the vaudeville circuit before making it to Broadway in 1917. Among their many productions the brother-sister team starred in the 1927 George and Ira Gershwin musical Funny Face. For all his early success, though, career in the movies eluded Astaire. He had done a screen test, but he failed to attract any interest. A studio executive wrote at the time, "Can't sing. Can't act. Slightly balding. Can dance a little."
In 1932, Astaire suffered a career setback. His sister Adele retired from the act to marry a British aristocrat. He floundered a bit professionally without his usual partner, but then decided to go to Hollywood to try once more to break into film.
Finally, Astaire landed a small role in 1933's Dancing Lady with Joan Crawford. The role opened the door to new opportunities, and Astaire signed a contract with RKO Radio Pictures. He was matched up with another Broadway talent, Ginger Rogers, for Flying Down to Rio, also in 1933. Cast as supporting players, their dance number stole the movie. Astaire and Rogers appeared in several more films together, including The Gay Divorcee (1934) and Top Hat (1935). The duo became film's most beloved dance team. Their routines featured a hybrid of styles—borrowing elements from tap, ballroom and even ballet. Katharine Hepburn once described what each of them brought their successful partnership: "Fred gave Ginger class, and Ginger gave Fred sex."
Off-screen, Astaire was known for his relentless pursuit of perfection. He thought nothing of rehearsing a scene for days, and Rogers eventually tired of the grueling schedule. The pair went their separate ways after 1939's The Story of Vernon and Irene Castle. Years later, they reunited once more for 1949's The Barkleys of Broadway.
After the split with Rogers in 1939, Astaire performed with such leading ladies as Rita Hayworth, Cyd Charisse, Judy Garland, Leslie Caron and Audrey Hepburn. Some of his most famous musicals from his later career include Easter Parade with Garland and Funny Face with Hepburn.
As his movie roles tapered off, Astaire worked more in television. He often appeared as himself for special tribute shows. Astaire had a growing interest in dramatic parts, working on such series as Dr. Kildare. He also worked with another legendary dancer, Gene Kelly, on the documentary That's Entertainment, which explored the golden era of the movie musical.
Around this time, Astaire received his only Academy Award nomination for his supporting role in the 1974 disaster film The Towering Inferno. He also won an Emmy Award for his work on the television special A Family Upside Down in 1978. More accolades soon followed. Astaire received a Lifetime Achievement Award from the American Film Institute in 1981.
A few years later, Astaire was hospitalized for pneumonia. He died on June 22, 1987, in Los Angeles, California. With his passing, Hollywood had lost one of its greatest talents. Former actor and president Ronald Reagan, upon learning the news, called Astaire "an American legend" and "the ultimate dancer." Rogers said Astaire "was the best partner anyone could ever have."
I hope you enjoy this as much as I have.
