Mel looked at the tape, and the list, and her smile widened. She didn't know all the tracks, but the titles were causing her to blush a little, especially the last one. She walked out the back to where Jazz kept a tape deck, turning the tape over and over in her hand. She flicked on the power and was about to open the door of the player when she stopped, held her hand out, and proceeded to open the cassette player, remove the tape in there, and place it on the table, before sending the other one across to the now empty slot, and finally jiggling it into place. A flick of her finger, as if flicking a crumb off her sleeve, and the cassette tray closed and the play button was depressed.

Within seconds Mel was dancing around to the tones of Brenda Lee, the song a little familiar from some events she had worked, and the cover bands doing it, but when the next track started she felt the bass take over and really started flinging her arms around, losing herself in the fun of dancing when no-one was watching.
