Song: Fire Burning by Sean Kingston


"It's just a party."

"And I'm not going."

"But-."

"I'm. Not. Going."

"Can't you at least think about this?"

"What's there to think about, Altair?" Malik scowled. "It's your decendant's party, why should I attend it?"

"I'm not going there without you." Altair declared.

"Then don't go." Malik grunted. "I'm fine with staying in the bureau and working on my maps. But if you're staying, then you can make yourself useful and go mae a trip to the market."

"No." Altair stated flatly. Earning a glance form Malik as the dai's attention turned from the parchment. "You're coming with me, and I don't care if I have to drag you there."

"Altair, you Novice. I'm not-" Then he was taken by the hood and dragged to the entrance. "ACK! ALTAIR! YOU INSANE SON OF A BITCH! LET ME GO THIS INSTANT!" He was turning and wriggling as he was pulled out of the bureau, then dragged across the streets. But Altair seemed determined to take him along. And seeing as there was not much chance in being freed from his awkward position as the seat of his robes were being stained by dirt as he was dragged, he crossed his arms and huffed almost childishly. This would be on long night.


He settled with sitting in the corner as he listened to the music playing, although it was strange and very energetic and strange to him. Was this was Desmond listened to? He wasn't sure. Nor did he care. All he wanted was to be sure that he could get through this night. And as he watched Altair enjoying himself as he was talking with Maria, he felt honestly jealous. He had nothing to do, and no one to talk with. He could just suck up his pride and talk to Altair, but that meant he'd be admitting that Altair was right.

It was then a hand touched his shoulder that once connected to an arm, he swung around to face a girl. She had black hair and was wearing a tank top and shorts. A kind smile was on her face. Though he wasn't sure who she was.

"Wanna dance?" She asked.

Malik then blinked in surprised. He didn't even need to ask or do anything, she was on her own. Though he looked back at Altair, who had noticed this and was glaring holes into his neck, he smiled back. "I wouldn't mind at all." He accepted, and followed her out into the group of odancing aorund.

He wasn't much a dancer, which made him metally curse himself for saying yes in the first place. He'd make a fool of himself for sure. He was so worried about what was probably going to happen, that he didn't realize that she had already started started dancing to the music. So he tried to mimic her, and soon what was simply him mirroring her turned to him adding some mix of the fighting moves he had learned and turns. He didn't realize that his dancing had brought him some attention.

When the song was about over, he brought the woman in as the last line was sang. Both were panting heavily, Malik slightly light headed from one of the flips he had preformed. But from the wide spread smile on the woman's face, he could tell that she enjoyed herself.

"That... was awesome." She breathed. Not even bothering to pull away from his one armed grip.

"You weren't so bad yourself." Malik noted. Now his mind trying to process what had just happened. But wasn't he terrible? It seemed like the dances he had always seem were the ones he was horrible at. But this, he didn't realize that he was actually good. The back flips and hand stands were impressive enough, but the kicks and spins seemed to make some of the other guys attempt to try them.

"Do you want to come with me?" She asked. Already leading him away without him giving an answer. They were then in another room while the girl saton the couch, motioning for him to do the same. He didn't refuse.

Before he could really being to tell what was going on, he felt a pair of warm lips move on his, and all his thoughts seemed gone in an instant. A hand stroking the back of his neck as his own ran through her silky hair. He hummed as he tasted coconut chapstick, and the light scent of tangerine were made obvious. He'd have to admit now that tonight wouldn't be so horrible after all.

I'm getting seriously annoyed by you people. Make up your minds! One person told me that a music meme needs the lyrics! And another just told me that fanfiction doesn't allow it! I had to be sure and checked the rules. Unfortunately they're right... So if anything yells at me AGAIN for not putting up the lyrics, then I'm getting rid of this damn thing because it's giving me too much trouble from you people!
