A/N Yet again - more apologies! But, finally, the new chapter has arrived. Finally... (Inconsistent muses…) Thanks to rockpunk92 and jennifer snape for reviewing the last chapter and, (isn't this getting repetitive?) to Elearuthe for reviewing and beta-ing.
"Hey, Lily! Want to dance?"
She turned, eyes blazing furiously.
"No, I don't want to dance! And if you— Remus? Remus?"
The boy, really a young man, laughed aloud as her anger gave way to amazement and, swiftly, embarrassment.
"I'm hurt, Lily. I thought we were friends," he teased, amusement colouring his mock-indignant tone.
She blushed. "I was-"
"Expecting someone else? Well, I'm here now. Like to reconsider?"
"I'd love to," she replied, every word sincere.
He half-bowed, took her hand and refused to let go until they were standing outside her dormitory hours later. Not that she objected, really.
The music, before you ask, is implicit with the dancing in this one.
Hugs and chocolates to all reviewers!
