Senseless 05
Alexandra gazed in the mirror.
"Looking good," she murmured, for the tenth time hoping Remus would like it. Suddenly, Lily stepped out of the bathroom.
"Lily! You look amazing!" Alexandra exclaimed. There was no pang of jealousy this time, but true words. Lily smiled.
Her beautiful dark red hair was tied into an elegant knot with two fancy sticks with silver sparkles on them. Her robes were dazzling silver and shone brightly in every angle, hugging all her curves. A little glitter was even sprinkled on her cheeks. She looked stunning without a doubt.
"You too. Remus will surely like it." Lily commented. Alexandra blushed.
"You think so?"
"Definitely."
The Masquerade already started, since it was 7.45. James and Remus were waiting at the foot of the stairs in the Gryffindor common room.
"Wonder what's taking them so long?" Remus asked.
"What else? Clothes, make-up… A pile of old rubbish." James grumbled, but the first sight of Lily walking down gracefully knew he was wrong. Remus meant to say something, but his mouth hanged open. James' eyes raked Lily up and down. The way James was looking at Lily was the same way Lily's looking at James.
"Hi," James started as casually as he could, "You look gorgeous!" Lily smiled and kissed him on the cheek as a way of saying thank you. James held out a hand.
"Shall we go, my lady?" he said in a fake tone.
"Yes, please," Lily replied in the same tone, taking James' hand pompously. Both grinned. It's going to be one long night.
Sirius was already dancing with one girl, taking out in the dance floor. Everybody was watching and cheering, maybe except the Slytherins. The song ended and everyone clapped as Sirius walked to James and Lily, grinning.
"We were good, weren't we?" Sirius asked mischievously.
"Maybe… Maybe not. Let's see who's better." James grinned back. "Dance?" He held out a hand in front of Lily.
"Sure!" Lily took it and smiled as The Weird Sisters struck up a fast song. Everybody stopped again and made way.
"Let's show everyone how good we are!" James yelled over the music.
~*~Lily~*~
James and I started bopping all over the dance floor. It felt sort of natural… He was a good dancer.
"The music's fantastic!" I shouted as James spun me around in a circle. He winked at me rather flirtatiously. I winked back.
He twirled me around and caught me again, wrapping one arm around my waist. I was having so much fun! We have never done this before, but it felt so rehearsed and natural.
I twirled around, and we did an elaborate sequence of twists, turns and spins all over the dance floor. When I came back to his arms, our eyes met. His was glimmering with excitement, like the time when I agreed to be his girlfriend. Everyone was cheering, louder then ever.
"Are we really that good?" I said as he pulled me back easily towards him before spinning me out again.
"No-we're better!" James said in my ear. We clasped each other's hands and started to step and whirl across the empty ground floor. This is probably the best night of my life!
~*~Normal~*~
The song ended. When James and Lily walked over to Sirius, Remus and Peter, James asked smugly "Are we better?"
"Nope!" Sirius replied.
"Hey, how did both of you swing a dance like that?" Remus asked.
"Who knows? The feeling's natural." James shrugged. "Lily's a pretty good dancer, far the best girl dancer I've known."
"Oh yeah?" Lily said playfully. "Pretty good?"
"Excellent."
A slow song struck.
"Care to dance?" James asked.
"Sure."
They swayed to the elegantly, looking at each other's eyes longingly.
"Lily…I love you." James murmured.
"I love you too James." Lily smiled and both broke into a passionate kiss.
"Hate can become love, the two people in front of us can prove it." Remus smiled. Alexandra nodded.
"Definitely," Alexandra laughed, "Definitely true."
I have to agree with Alexandra this time! *grins happily* Anyway, I'm really sorry this chapter is sooo short, but I have no choice, honestly!!! I might have another love/hate fic coming up… You'll never know! Senseless is completed, thanks to all the wonderful reviewers that made me complete the series!
