"Okay Lils, I'm tired of seeing you sitting on your ass all day. Get up, we're going out," Carina informed Lily.
It had been almost two weeks since Jason had broken up with Lily and all she did was mope around the apartment. For a few days she had even sent an owl to work saying that she was too ill to come in. However, Carina had eventually made Lily go, complaining that now that she was out of the job somebody needed to pay the rent.
"Carina, I don't want to go anywhere. I perfectly fine staying here," Lily told her friend.
"No you aren't missy. You've been like this for far too long. So get up off the couch, go take a shower, get dressed and meet me back here," Carina demanded.
Lily started to protest, saying, "Carina, it's too soon to go out."
"It's too soon my ass. Get going now!"
"Can you at least tell me where we're going?" Lily questioned.
"We're going dancing!" Carina responded, her eyes were burning with excitement.
Reluctantly, Lily got off the couch and got ready for the night out.
About an hour later, both girls were ready to go. Carina had on a tight red dress. It was a spaghetti strap dress with a revealing neckline. It was cut short, reaching less than halfway down Carina's thighs. The end of it was somewhat fringed, making it appear that it had several layers to it. Her shoes were black and strapy, adding nearly three inches to her height. Carina's blonde hair was loose, falling down to the midpoint of her back. Her eyes had a mischievous look to them.
Lily looked amazing as well. She was wearing a zebra print miniskirt with a black top. The top was a spaghetti strapped shirt, like many of Lily's clothes. The neckline came to a V, barley showing her breasts. Lily was wearing shoes almost identical to Carina's, just a little bit shorter heel. Her hair was pulled back into a half up, half down sort of style. The part which was pulled back was put up in a sloppily done bun. Needless to say, Lily looked stunning.
"Alright, let's go," Carina said.
They each then apparated over to the best salsa dance club in all of Wizard England, Lolicia's.
Lolicia's was crowded when the girls arrived. There wasn't much space to move on the dance floor. The loud music was engulfing and the atmosphere was incredible.
Lily and Carina each made their way over to the dance floor, waiting for some guy to ask to dance.
In no time at all, Carina was on the dance floor. The guy she was dancing with was very handsome. He had dark brown hair and baby blue eyes. Lily watched as Carina and her mystery man moved to the music. His hands were on her hips, and he was eyeing Carina's slender body.
Lily then felt hands wrap around her waist. She turned and saw a tall, gorgeous man. He had blonde hair which fell slightly in front of his brown eyes. The two dancing looked mesmerized. She was shaking her hips to the rhythm of the salsa song, and his eyes lingered up and down her body.
Just as Lily was beginning to enjoy herself, she felt a tap on her shoulder. She turned her head and saw James Potter. He had a mischievous look in his eyes, and he asked, "Do you mind if I cut in?"
Before the blonde could even answer, James ripped Lily away and held her in his arms. A new song came on the speaker and he placed just one hand on Lily's waist and held her hand with the other. Lily felt shivers go up her spine as soon as he had touched her.
He held her trembling body close to his, a daring grin upon his face. "You're beautiful," he whispered into her red locks.
Lily felt her heart race faster. She could feel how close his lips were to her ear, his breath on her skin. All she could think about was how bad she wanted him to kiss her. In fact, any girl would want that; with a devilishly attractive man at her fingertips.
He moved his head away though, staring out at a space behind Lily, which only made her feel more lust and hatred all together. He had teased her, and then left her there without even a kiss to savor.
She then realized that he wasn't the only one that could do that, she could play the game just as well.
She took her own hand off of his shoulder and seductively ran it down his chest. Her own eyes suggested mischief, yet wouldn't just let him have his fun.
"Lily," he mumbled into her ear.
"Yes," she sweetly said while forcing her own body closer to his- closing the gap completely.
His eyes lit up, although he tried desperately to hide it. Lily saw though, she could see the passion inside him. She knew that he wanted her badly- almost as badly as she wanted him.
He leaned his head forward just a bit, their lips almost touching. Lily felt her heart beat faster and faster as she realized his intentions. This is what she had wanted, she had wanted this kiss.
Their lips finally reached, but only for a brief moment. But in the moment, her heart was overwhelmed with excitement. It was as if all the energy from the dance floor had been converted into that simple, tiny kiss. It was wonderful.
Then the song ended, and Lily had expected James to release her back into the crowd. However, he didn't let her go. Instead he placed both hands on her hips, making her tremble underneath his touch. The song was upbeat and Lily couldn't fight the urge to move her hips to its rhythm. James's eyes lingered up and down her body, taking in her swaying hips, sexy outfit, and devious eyes.
Lily could feel he watching her every move, she shuddered under his gaze. His eyes finally made it back up to her face, and she gave him a look that said 'come and get me.'
He moved closer toward Lily's sweating body, making little space between them. She could hear her breathe become heavier, the attraction between them was inevitable.
James looked into Lily's eyes and saw a scandalous appeal to them, making her look even sexier than before.
She saw that James was enticed by her every move, and she wanted that. She wanted him to forget all about Emmy and only remember her, only remember that brief kiss, only remember what they had done. And it seemed that Lily's wish was happening.
