Lovecats

He never smiled on his own when she chose the music.

He had a need to control everything about music, he wanted to have one area of life where he felt like a complete authority. Unfortunately, music was a notoriously fickle medium.

She liked Punk music (something he knew nothing about and hated even more than disco).

The first time she began hissing at him, he didn't get the joke.  The second time, he began hissing at her, and she didn't think it was funny.

Slowly, they began to hiss and laugh at each other everytime the song came on.  It was a matter of being silly. There were few moments of silliness.  After a while, it was the quickest way to a smile.

And he didn't even like punk music!
