The Secrets I Keep (Ominis Gaunt X Fem MC)

I do part 2

The party then started to pick up. I danced with Garreth and Arthur a bit more before taking a seat. Only to be pulled right back up by Sebastian who just kept spinning me around. We both were laughing like complete idiots and acted like children. I was happy to see Sebastian not stuck in a gloomy mood he deserved it. Then the music slowed down and Ominis walked up towards me and grabbed my hand kissing it while he vowed on front of me. I bit my lip thinking if only he knew what him being a gentleman does to me.

"May I have this dance?"

"Of course" I was nervous I would step on his feet again. We swayed side to side slowly and felt Ominis grip on my waist tighten and pull me closer.

"One foot apart" Arthur placed his arm in between us before laughing and pushing us closer together again. "I'm only jesting"

Me and Ominis laughed but continued to dance. I placed my head on his shoulder and closed my eyes. He squeezed my hand and I could feel him smile. We danced a couple more songs before we took a seat. It was starting to get late and I was slowly becoming tired. I stood up from the table to get a drink but was stopped quickly.

"Oh you must be the Weasleys new daughter I heards so much about?" My eyes widened and my heart sank. Arthur quickly got up and jagged trying to fix the situation as Sebastian have a look of confusion towards us.

"Aunt Prescilla you are alway so funny with your jokes. I know you haven't seen Penny since she was a newborn, she's gotten big huh?"  I watched as Arthur dragged his aunt to the the other side of the tent before she would say anything else. I didn't want to turn around because I could feel Sebastian or Ominis would question about the situation.

"They call her the new Weasley sometimes because she is the youngest of all us and they didn't really see much of her" Garreth broke the silence.

"Why because they avoided her thinking she was a squib?" Sebastian defended.

"No those are only mere rumors Sallow. Our family got hit hard after my fathers death so we didn't go much to family social gatherings. If we did it would be my mom and Aria while Arthur would stay behind to care for me and Penelope" another lie I thought to myself. I felt ashamed that not only I was lying to all my friends but now I had to drag them down along with me. The guilt was hitting me hard at the moment and I didn't realize I had begun to cry.

"Penelope I'm sorry I didn't mean to go into a hard topic" I saw Sebastian stand up and walk up towards me. No stop don't hug me I don't deserve it I'm lying to your face.

"It's okay Sebastian thank you" I let out as I patted his shoulder to stop him from embracing me. I looked over to see Garreth look down at his drink and twirling in his hands. I'm sorry Garreth I thought to myself.

"I'm going to call it a night" I kissed Garreth on the head and hugged Sebastian. Before I could reach Ominis he stood from his seat.

"I'll come with you" Ominis let out.

"No it's okay Ominis stay and have fun we all deserve a break from school" I laughed.

"It's about to be the middle of the night. I think my body is no longer up for it" he held his hand out to me. I smiled and grabbed it and made our way out of the tent. Sebastian and Garreth said they would stay a bit longer to dance and drink. I was hoping no more of the Weasley family would come question me.
