"Do you want a drink?" Scorpius asks.
Albus shakes his head. "I'd like a dance though," he says, gesturing to the dance floor.
Scorpius hesitates. "People will stare."
"So?" Albus challenges. "Let them."
Scorpius grins and holds out his arm in a gentle-man like fashion. "Albus Severus Potter, may I have this dance?"
