Dance.
She wants to dance with him: they're the most stunning couple in the room, what with her vibrant copper coloured hair in such a stark contrast to his shocking turquoise crop, and she wants to show off how she can dance. She wants to have everyone whisper, "look, that's Molly and Teddy," because they're the new description of flawlessness.
But they don't; it's not their time to take the dance floor, is it, because this snowy winter's eve is Victoire and Rick's; it is, after all, their wedding night.
So Molly takes Teddy's hand and leads him to the little inglenook near to the wood fireplace in the corner of the splendorous room, sitting herself neatly on his lap. Her hair tickles his face softly and it's with a laugh that he manages to remind himself that they've got company here.
And so she settles down into his shoulder as he orders her a pumpkin squash, because she's never liked to drink.
(It may taint one of these moments with Teddy that, no matter how numerous, she will cherish separately and equally for eternity.)
