Chapter 30
Tiffany became bored and took some of her hair in her hand and continued admiring it from where she left off when Rachelle dragged her into the entrance hall.
This action seemed to have drawn Harry's attention to her hair and he finally noticed the color-change.
"Wow…when did that happen?" he asked.
"This morning, at breakfast," Tiffany said proudly, and she launched into the story about the Ravenclaw girl's accident.
"Oh," he said after she had finished.
A new song emitted from invisible speakers, and the people who had cleared the dance floor for a short break returned to it.
Tiffany listened to it for a few seconds and recognized it immediately.
"This is called Take Me Away and it's by Fefe Dobson," she said.
"Oh," said Harry.
Tiffany rolled her eyes and continued playing with her hair.
I…was waiting all my life to know you
All about you
And now…I'm staring in your eyes ocean blue
I'm all about you
And in our minds it comes so easily
But there's a feeling coming over me
I wanna show you but there's no where we can really be free
Everybody's watching
Wouldn't it be good if we could be together?
Take me away…
Take me far away from here
I will run…with you
Don't be afraid
Navigate and I will steer into the sun
We will run
"So you've heard it before?" Harry asked.
"Yes," Tiffany said, surprised that he had asked a question.
I try…to remember when I was just a child
In my room
My…imagination used to run wild
But I never knew
That nothing's ever as it seems to be
When a dream collides with the reality
It should be easy when two people love each other truly…
Everybody's talking
Wouldn't it be good if they would understand us?
Take me away…
Take me far away from here
I will run…with you…
Don't be afraid
Navigate and I will steer into the sun
We will run
We…will run…
Whoa oh oh oh…
We…will run…
Oh yeah yeah yeah
Wouldn't it be good if they would understand us?
Wouldn't it be good if we could be together?
Bita and Jonny came back from the drink counter and sat with Tiffany.
"They didn't have lemonade!" said Bita, sounding as if she were getting ready to cry.
Tiffany stared at her for a moment. "Now what are you going to do?"
"I have no clue," said Bita sadly.
Take me away
Take me away
Take me far away from here
I will run…with you
Don't be afraid
Navigate and I will steer into the sun
We will run…
Oh oh oh…
I will run with you wherever you go
Don't be afraid
Let's run away and I will steer into the sun
We will…run
The song ended and there was hardly a pause before the next song started playing.
"Oooh, I like this song!" Bita said, cheering up.
"Me too," said Tiffany. "It's called I See Right Through to You and it's by DJ Encore," she added to Harry.
I…see…right…through to you…
See…right…through to you…
See…right…through to you…
Just then, someone – a dark blur in the dim light – Harry, Bita, Tiffany, and Jonny didn't know started walking to their table.
"Is he coming this way?" Tiffany asked Bita.
"I gu– " Bita stopped.
The someone that Harry, Bita, Tiffany, and Jonny didn't know had come close enough now that they could see that it was a blonde 3rd year boy dressed in a yellow shirt with a black stripe and jeans. When he came closer, they also saw that he had green eyes. Bita stared at him.
I…see right through to you
It's not like I don't feel your mood
What you have for me
Is different than the rest that moves
I'll be positive I know that I could be there too
'Cause you have it all…have it all…
I…see…right…through to you…
See…your…every move
See…right…through to you…
See…your…every move
"Hi," the boy said to Bita.
"Hi…" said Bita faintly.
"What's your name?"
"Bita…what's yours?"
"Jonny…without an 'h'."
Bita almost fell off of her chair.
Oooh oooh oooh…
Oooh oooh oooh…
I know you now
I read your mind
You've shown somehow
What I could find
On the inside
There you will be
We're all alike
You and me…
"J-Jonny?" Bita asked, apparently unable to believe it.
"Yeah…do you wanna dance?" he asked.
Bita really did fall off of her chair this time, but stood quickly.
"Ok!" she said, staring at Jonny (the person).
Bita and Jonny (the person) went onto the dance floor, leaving Harry and Tiffany alone once again.
Oooh oooh oooh…
Oooh oooh oooh…
I…see…right…through to you…
See…your…every move…
See…right…through to you…
See…your…every move…
The song ended and everyone stayed on the dance floor as the next song came on.
