Rogue's POV:
You know I wasn't really sure why I asked.
Nope, nope I was sure. It was because I felt sorry for her, and I understood how annoying Sting could be.
That's all it was. I'm just the nice guy; just helping the girl out. It wasn't like I actually wanted to dance with her as a date or anything, right?
But of course that wasn't it. What if it was something more? Since when did I approach a girl like this -
I snapped out of my thoughts. I slowly raised the corners of my mouth in a small – smile?
I looked down. She looked relieved, and I could see a crimson blush spreading across her cheeks. Adorable. Did I really just say that?
Rogue, what is wrong with you?
This is wrong. I had to focus; the Grand Magic Games were on our DOORSTEP. I had to, focus. Focus. You do not need to know this girl, or even associate with her. Just focus on the games, like Jiemma said. After this dance, you're done. But it would be good to associate with her – she could help me heighten my powers. Great. So now I was just reasoning with myself?
One last dance.
I was thinking this as I led her across the floor. The orchestral conductor stood up.
"And now, for our last piece, we will play Chopin's Mazurka, Op. 67 No. 2." (you guys can look it up if you want, it really is a wonderful piece.)
I heard her gasp. "I love that piece!"
"Rogue…" her voice interrupted my thoughts. "I can't dance."
I shot her a sideways look and smirked. "Just follow me."
Oh boy, I was just full of confidence today wasn't I?
I spun to face her and kissed her on the top of her slender hand. Pulling her towards me I placed one hand on her lower back, and she planted her other on my shoulder. Grasping hands, I gently mouthed which way to go, "Sidestep left, right, now, turn …"
Thankfully, the orchestra played it slowly at first, but then it started to get faster and faster; vivid, buoyant steps chorused around the us,
and we seemed to have left our troubles behind us for now – lost in the endless mirage of dresses and dreams, our own space behind closed doors.
Her fumbling steps started to smoothen as I instructed her how to dance. Had she never danced before?
"Have you ever danced before?"
"No," she said, "I was always afraid of falling…"
"Really? You're doing quite well for a first-timer. Even if you did step on my toes more than once," I answered, teasing her.
She blushed. "It's not like I was trying to!" she exclaimed, a smile of her face.
I laughed, the first time I'd done so in ages…
She looked at me with wide eyes. "I've never seen you laugh, Rogue."
And that was when I knew I just couldn't leave her alone.
