Couple dancing always benefits from having some chemistry.

Some couples are only “couples” on the dance floor and have to make their own chemistry through dance.

Others are couples off the dance floor as well and don’t have to try. They have chemistry galore even when they’re not dancing, and those ones are always fun to watch.

This West Coast Swing couple is Chantelle and Joel. They’re a dance pair, and an actual pair too.

Naturally, their dances have an intimacy and chemistry that you’d only find between two people who truly love each other.

Joel dons a classy grey suit for this one, and Chantelle has some black high heels and a graceful skirt.

They’ll be dancing to Don’t Know Why by Norah Jones.

The track is a pretty good choice for a slow, romantic dance.

Norah Jones knew what she was doing when she gave us that track.

It was probably played in countless romantic car rides, dinner dates, and slow dances. It’s a trend I’m glad keeps going.

Now, Chantelle and Joel show how much they can do with this beloved, romantic song.

Slow movements, but very graceful. That’s the nature of West Coast Swing – especially when paired with the jazzy feel of Norah Jones’ lovely track.

So take it all together, the romantic music, and the dance couple with actual feelings for each other, and you get this.

A passionate, romantic dance for everyone in the crowd to appreciate.

Though I can imagine the single folks watching it might feel left out. Hey, there’s someone out there for all of us. We’ve just gotta be patient.

Chantelle shows off her supreme balance despite wearing those tall heels.

She balances on one leg while her man holds her up, all while looking flawless and confident.

Joel can’t take his eyes off her.

This is the woman he loves, and it must be a blessing to him to get to dance with her like this as a career.

You can’t see it, but I bet the crowd loves the authentic romance between them too.

It’s not every day you get to watch a love story and a performance all in one.

And speaking of which, these two have been together for a while.

You’ll find out what I mean soon enough, but just know that Joel truly thinks Chantelle is the one.

When the show’s over, Joel proves just how intense his love is.

He pulls out a small box from his coat and gets down on one knee.

This is it. He asks Chantelle to marry him, and of course, she says yes.

It’s too sweet not to get the crowd screaming. I mean, who wouldn’t?

It’s crazy to think that they started this dance as boyfriend and girlfriend, and they ended it as fiancé and fiancée. Wild how that happens, right?
