[...Marianne does look up, but she looks more shocked than anything. Is Hubert really trying to put them both in danger like this???]
I--are you sure? I don't want to...well...
[Well, alright, here we go again at the very least. Perhaps surprisingly, this helps a bit more; Hubert can probably hear her trying to hum some sort of tune that she's heard before to stay in step, she doesn't look away from him. As much as Marianne's face is heating a bit and she wants to look down, she doesn't; her steps are still a little jumpy and nervous, but they're a lot less rigid, and she only manages to step on his toes once near the end--
And...well, she doesn't look down but her eyes shut a bit, a little frustrated but she does at least manage the very end.]
...I think that was my best attempt, and I still messed it up...
[Marianne sighs a bit.]
Can we try again? [...] I'm sorry, this must be rather frustrating for you...
