N/A oh just admit it you really want to see him dance and you know it!
I had never seen you dance before.
At all.
At least not the dancing one is expected to do at Yule balls.
I was sitting on the balcony of the astronomy tower with Remus.
As always talking mostly about you.
He laughed when I brought it up.
He said he had never seen you dance either.
And if I could get you to:
he would give me 10 galleons.
And
Not eat meat for two days.
Considering his love for bacon I assume that he didn't believe I could get you to.
That Saturday I asked you why you didn't dance.
You simply replied : "I don't know how,"
I laughed.
You glared at me.
I Asked "If I taught you, would you dance with me at the Yule ball?"
You said you weren't a dancing type of person.
We stayed silent.
The sun set.
We walked back up to the castle.
I teased you for being afraid of dancing.
You rolled your eyes.
" Can you honestly picture me: Sirius black, dancing?"
You asked me when we reached the common room.
I honestly could.
James who was studying in the common room at the time.
Said he defiantly could too.
We both laughed and you shook your head and sat down on the couch.
Propping your feet up on the coffee table.
" I don't think I have actually ever seen someone in my family dance."
You said.
James laughed.
" When have you been one to be like your family?"
Peter said walking down the stairs.
We all gave you a questioning glance.
You went up to bed.
Leaving us all smiling.
At the top of the astronomy tower.
James was telling me about your date that morning.
With some ravanclaw named Selena.
She apparently wanted to see If you would dance with her.
She was known by most as the most gorgeous witch ever to set foot in Hogwarts.
I laughed suddenly.
James turned to look at me confused.
"What is it?" he asked.
"It was just some thing" I said "I think might make her a bit mad,"
James looked more confused.
" Not even the prettiest witch to ever set foot in Hogwarts could make him dance."
I told him.
And then I began to laugh and laugh.
I think I scared James a bit.
One week later it was the day of the Yule ball.
It was also Saturday.
I unlike all my friends,
Did not start getting ready at dawn.
I woke up at eleven and walked down to the lake.
You hadn't started getting ready either.
"It's a mad house up there," I said
I skipped a stone across the water.
I got four hops.
"Shouldn't you be up there going mad too?" you asked me.
"Shouldn't you?" I responded
You smiled.
"I suppose I should since everyone will be watching me tonight".
Then you glared at me.
I didn't look at you but smiled and tossed another stone.
"And why might that be?"
I asked you chuckling.
You walked up next to me and crossed your arms.
I tried not to smile.
"It seems everyone is quite interested in if I'll dance or not."
I tried to keep a strait face.
"Oh really?" I responded.
You nodded.
" I'm so sorry I'm going to have to disappoint them all."
I rolled my eyes.
You started your way up the hill to the castle.
I wore a purple and blue floor length dress.
My friend Lisa said I looked like a lilac.
I liked lilacs.
You wore midnight blue suit and matching black tie.
And James pointed out neither of us did anything with our hair.
But wash it.
As Lisa and I talked to you and Remus.
I spotted at least twenty girls glaring at me.
From all over the room.
I felt bad that there night was ruined.
They couldn't enjoy their dates because they would rather be with you.
I felt worse for there dates.
We talked and watched our friends.
Even a few teachers.
Dance around the floor.
We sang along to all the songs we knew.
At nine o'clock:
I went to get some pumpkin juice.
So did one of your "other girls".
"Looks like your not so much different then us as you think sweetie," She said.
"He won't dance with us either."
I glared at her.
Took my pumpkin juice
And walked away.
I wasn't and never was like her.
Ever.
At the end of the night I looked for you.
I wasn't sure were you had gone.
Remus and Peter said they wanted to show me something.
I sighed a bit tired.
I followed them any way.
They led me too the astronomy tower.
I climbed all the steps to the top.
James was there waiting by the balcony.
All three of them smiled.
"What are you guys up to?" I asked smiling too.
" I believe Sirius can answer that." Said James
You stepped from the shadows.
I smiled as you took my hand.
" I have some very annoying friends." You said.
"Shut up and dance with her already mate!" James shouted.
I laughed and you rolled your eyes.
"Remember your part of the bargain and I will." You said.
Before I knew it James had pulled a guitar out of the shadows.
Then your three "annoying" friends began singing.
I can still hardly believe this happened.
I bet they couldn't believe it either.
"Here goes nothing" you mumbled under your breath.
I heard you though.
You actually were a pretty good dancer.
And when we finally stopped.
It was three am.
Your friends stayed.
Sung.
And cheered for you.
The entire time.
When we got back to the common room.
And said good night to each other.
Remus slipped ten galleons into my hand.
No one noticed though.
But there were a few comments at breakfast.
