A/N: I couldn't wait to start this chapter; the idea came to me when I was in the fridge last night when I was looking for a bottle of water. I literally jumped at the idea. Well...at least I thought it was brilliant. Please be warned, Emma & Jake/ Kiara & Alexis shippers might not be impressed. Heh...Kiara and Alexis shippers, I didn't mean that in any sort of gay way.
"Straight A's in Defense Against the Dark Arts? I'm impressed!" Scott grinned at Katie, doing very well at flattering her with his sweet yet polite comments he made towards her. Katie was loving it, she found Remus so much different and sophisticated to the other Marauders. Sometimes she wondered why he even put up with them.
Half an hour into the night and Kiara was bored out of her brains. The band that was playing was only currently playing bouncy tunes that got most students feet tapping, but not Kiara. She rather be sitting detention than be standing around watching loving couples gaze into each other eyes as they danced hand in hand. At least that way she could do something interesting out of her time. The thought made her sick.
Jake and Emma were getting along fairly well. After helping themselves both to some finger food on the displayed tables up against the great halls walls, the couple took a seat down and got themselves into a deep conversation, dropping their voices as they switched the discussion over to their problem just incase anyone around heard them.
"...so chances are" Jake said in a low whisper to Emma, his gentle hazel eyes darting around the hall seeking for anyone who was staring at them. "We're probably not getting out of here in a hurry"
Emma tried to hide her disappointment. Although it was her very own wish to become Lily, she hadn't thought through of what she was saying and was expecting nothing to happen like any body else would of done. As they say, expect the unexpected.
Jake noticed a hint of disappointment showing in Emma's face, so he quickly said something positive to cheer her up with. "But, I mean...look on the bright side, it's just like a holiday from our own reality"
Emma tilted her head to the side slightly, stroking a strand of auburn hair behind her left ear as she thought of these words. "True...but every holiday means leaving something behind"
Kiara and Andrew stood by the food table were busy helping themselves to handfuls of food and stuffing them into their mouths rudely. Alexis was fed up of Kiara enough already and had strolled over to her Hufflepuff friends where she chatted to them nicely, pretending she never asked Kiara to the ball. Kiara burped loudly, others around pretending not to notice.
"Oi, mate, where ya going?" Kiara called out to Andrew as he scuttled off to the other side of the hall. Andrew turned around and shrugged at Kiara as he continued to make his way across the dance floor, heading towards a group of girls. Kiara rolled her eyes and leant her body onto the edge of the table, once again watching the couples together all around her. Her eyes shifted over to the table where a large bowl of punch sat, untouched by anyone so far. Glancing around for a cup or some sort of container to drink from, Kiara shrugged when there was none provided, picked up the whole bowl and started to drink from it.
Professor Dumbledore had ordered the band to drop the tempo and play a soft slow song for all the couples, signaling a slow dance. Scott, with much confidence, had no problem asking Katie into a dance who accepted gracefully as they took each others hands and glided onto the dance floor.
Jake glanced across at Emma. "Wanna dance?" he said, trying to sound more confident than he really was.
Emma rolled her eyes "That's no way to ask a lady"
Jake stood to his feet, Emma following him and cleared his throat lightly. He then took a small bow and offered his arm out to him. "Would thy lady like to dance?" he asked in a fake English accent.
Emma giggled and took his arm with a small nod. "Only if one doesn't step on thy toes" she answered in the same accent as him.
The two walked into the middle of the dance floor, dodging other couples as they did so. When they found a suitable clearing on the floor, Jake hesitated slightly at first then took Emma's hand gently and slipped his other hand around her waist, keeping an eye on Scott and Katie to copy their movements.
Alexis scowled secretly when her friends left her to go find their dates to dance with. Sighing, she glanced over to Kiara, looking very stupid trying to drink from a full bowl of punch. Rolling her brown eyes, she forced herself over towards her.
Kiara looked lowered the bowl from her lips and grinned at Alexis as she began to approach her. She took a hand off and waved at her friendly before starting to walk towards her. "Hey Lexi...wan-shhhhiit!"
Just as Alexis had reached Kiara, she was only about a foot away from her when Kiara tripped on unlit pumpkin lantern on the floor, tipping the entire punch bowl onto Alexis.
Dripping wet from waist up, Alexis raised her arms up, watching the juice drip off her fingertips. The top of her blue dress was now stained a dark blue and her hair, dripping wet and sticking messily to her face with her mascara beginning to run slightly. Kiara froze with shock as she stared at the girl and opened her mouth to apologize when she was once again slapped across the face, only ten times harder than the first time.
"LOOK WHAT YOU'VE DONE!" Alexis screamed at Kiara, not caring that almost every single student in the school now had their eyes onto the couple. Kiara lifted her hand to rub her cheek where she had slapped her, tempted to slap her back but somehow controlled herself. Alexis didn't await Kiara's answer and stormed out of the great hall and onto a nearby balcony, stumbling in her high heels as she did so.
Kiara raised her eyebrows in surprise and turned around slowly to see every single couple in the school staring at her. Hiding her embarrassment, she lifted an arm and scratched the back of her neck nervously, smiling innocently as she stepped backwards, quickly turned around and power walked out of the hall.
Emma looked up at Jake and let go of his hand, stepping away for him. "I'm...sorry, it's just...I..." she started, then realizing Jake would understand, she followed Alexis out onto the balcony leaving him standing in the middle of the dance floor. Katie scurried off from Scott after bidding her goodbyes and followed Emma.
