(Aurelia's Pov)
I've been at the banquet for a while now, and I still feel like shit.

"Time to dance!" Said Pansy.

"I agree. But remember this is a banquet, not a hogwarts party. Don't be a whore." Said Enzo.

"Fineee, I'll be classy today." She said.
"Well you can't exactly shake your ass to classical music." Said Draco.

"It's Pansy, of course she can." Said Theo.

"I just realized it's even now. Four girls, four guys, no one has to sit out." Said Daphne.

"Actually I'm gonna sit out. I can't slow dance, and I'm not really in the mood." I said.

"What? I wanna dance with you." Said Theo.
"I'm sorry." I said.

"What's the point of coming if you're not gonna dance?" Said Draco.

"Draco." I said eyeing him.
He knows I feel like shit, I hope he doesn't push.

"Come on, get up." He said.
Asshole.

"Yeah come, it'll be fun. I can teach you to dance." Smiled Astoria.

"No I'm okay." I said.

"Aurelia you owe me a dance remember?"
Said Enzo.

"I know but-"
"You promised." He said.

"Alright fine."

"Me first. I'm a great dancer so I can show you." Said Theo.

I grabbed his hand.

We got to the dance floor, and I looked around. I felt like a princess at a ball.

"So what do I do?" I asked Theo.
"Put one hand here, and grab my hand with the other. Now go with the flow." He said.

"How do I do that?" I asked.
"I'll guide you, just follow me okay?"

I nodded, and we slowly swayed.
"There you go, you're doing good." He said.

"Really?"
"Yeah. But I think you're focusing too hard.
Feel the music." He said.

I nodded and closed my eyes.

Suddenly he dipped me and I gasped.
"I was not ready for that!" I laughed.

"I won't let you fall." He said.

He the tucked my hair behind my ear and pulled me closer.

"You blew me away today. I always think you're beautiful, but today you're angelic."

"Oh stop." I said.

"Can't. Aurelia I'm really really into you.
You know that right?"

"I had a feeling." I said.
Theo laughed, and pulled me closer.

"I understand why you need to leave. I can't say I'm happy, but I get it. So I've decided that I'm gonna make these next months incredible."
