Az couldn't find DG.
She wasn't in her room, and she wasn't in the entrance hall where she had been learning to dance earlier either. She began to make her way to the kitchen when she saw two figures walking down the hallway towards her. One had a familiar cowboy hat on, while the other was gliding through the hallway making occasional circles, which made an equally familiar long coat flare out behind her.
Az slid into the shadows as the figures of Cain and DG made their way down the hall. DG was humming as she danced down the hallway, and Cain watched her, amused, out of the corner of his eye. DG suddenly turned towards him and grabbed his hands, pulling him into the middle of the hallway with her.
"Come on, Cain."
"I don't know what you're talking about, Princess. I don't dance."
DG frowned and stuck out her bottom lip, "Please? Just down the hallway?"
How could he refuse that look? Or those eyes? He sighed in annoyance (mainly at himself).
"Come on…you didn't complain earlier…"
'Earlier?!' Az thought in alarm. 'What happened earlier!? They don't dance!'
Cain sighed again, this time in defeat.
DG just smiled and stole his hat, putting it on her head. Cain smirked.
"That's not really a good look for you, kiddo," he told her as he took her in his arms again.
She scrunched up her face at him as they started dancing down the hallway.
Az's jaw dropped. They could dance. Both of them. Very well. Together.
No way.
She watched, awestruck, as they made their way down the hallway to DG's room. They finally stopped and both made either an exaggerated bow or curtsy.
DG giggled and shrugged off his coat as he stole his hat back.
"Goodnight, Mr. Cain," she said, beaming.
"Goodnight, DG," he replied with a nod.
Az could barely make out through the dark hallway as they both held each other's gaze a bit longer than necessary. As DG shut the door behind her, she watched Cain straighten and stretch.
"Well that was interesting," she heard him mutter.
Az smiled to herself, 'Indeed, it was,' she thought. She watched as he turned away from her and replaced his hat.
"Goodnight, Azkadellia."
Az jumped when the Tin Man addressed her.
"You didn't see a thing," he told her.
Wide eyed, she replied after a moment, "Of course not."
She did not see his large smile as he continued down the hall to his room.
But she also didn't see the flash of light come from underneath DG's door as she transported herself down the hall to Cain's room.
The End
A/N: Oh, I am EVIL, aren't I?! Muhahaha!! ...so, uh...this was not at ALL what my other idea was the other day...but well - that's just how it goes... The epilogue will probably be up this weekend becuase, lets face it, chapters like this require adequate attention... Anyway, I just want to say thanks to all of you who reviewed and favorited this story – it means a lot!
