Dance
cerasi

It burned through me as I watched him. This passion, a furious passion and I felt my neck heat up and my face began to burn, though no one else could see it. I watched him talking casually to our friends, and I felt something in me, a music, a rhythm. He spotted me approaching and he smiled and I felt the burn grip me from within.

I pulled my wand out of my robes and tapped a stone as I passed it. The stone quickly changed into something else, Merlin knows what. I don't know what it became because I didn't look back, my eyes were fixed on him, but I know that the stone began to sing, to beat out the rhythm I had in me, because I had told it to.

His golden eyes peered curiously at me, narrowed with suspicion, and I know mine burned with something akin to lust.

'What is it?' he asked.

I didn't reply. I took his hand in mine and gripped his waist and we began to dance. I know James and Peter laughed at me, and Remus was so hesitant at first, but he looked into my eyes and that changed.

The heat burned in him, too; it spread through me and into him in every place we touched. The cool autumn night faded into darkness, and the school was a twinkling mass upon the hill, while the four of us… the two of us, we danced.

'Sirius,' he whispered.

'No,' I replied. 'Shh.' And he put his head on my shoulder, and his mouth to my neck and we danced on.
