I had danced around for a good while, leaving me somewhat tired. I went back to the buffet, which Draco had thankfully disappeared from, and grabbed some strawberries, eating them as I watched the students dance.

I had a smile on my face, which was rare, because there was nothing I was particularly happy about, I was just glad to be there. As I looked through the crowd of dancers, my eyes landed on Esme and Ron, who were dancing on one another.

I wanted to throw up, but I told myself I would not smear my dark red lipstick. Instead, I looked around for one particular subject- Draco. He was sitting at one of the tables, joking around with Crabbe.

I gathered my confidence and walked over to him. His eyes landed on me as I got a few steps away, those blue eyes of his staring into me. "Dance with me." I yelled over the music. I didn't want to truly dance with him, but he's one of the only people that weren't scared of me.

He nodded and got up, following me to the dance floor. I stopped fairly close to Esme and Ron; just close enough for them to see us. Just as I was about to begin dancing, the song "Feel so Close" started playing over the speakers.

The strobe lights switched between blue, red, and purple every few moments, which was beautiful. Draco and I faced one another and started dancing, our eyes staring at one another's the whole time. We were close, unbearably close.

Again, I was in the moment. Though I was still hoping Esme and Ron were looking, Draco was the only person I truly had interest in at that moment. His eyes were fierce- burning with desire. And so were mine.

The song soon came to and end, and I never expected the next song to come so soon. It was a slow song. Since Draco and I were the only ones close to one another without a date, we sucked it up and pulled one another close.

My hands rested on his shoulders, his hands rested on my hips. The lights had gone somewhat dark, but there was still plenty of light to see. We were in the middle of the crowd of students, circling around one another like a carousel.

I kept my eyes on his- for so long I got lost in them. Our closeness was unbearable. We were only a few inches away from one another. His hand left my hip and travelled up my back, cool fingers stinging as they travelled back down to my hip.

His lips moved to mine, and I allowed them to. In fact, I moved mine closer to his as well. They touched one another so gently at first, but it soon turned into a passionate, fiery kiss.

I could feel stares from the surrounding people, but I didn't care. My arms left his shoulders and cupped his jaw, fingers touching his jawline. There was such a blazing fire in between us, it couldn't be put out.

He grew more dominant by the second, fingers on my hips pulling me closer and closer. And just like that, the slow song was over, and the students around us began dancing wildly again.

I slowly brought my lips away from his, but I could tell he was still hungry for more. "Let's leave." He said with a ragged breath, slipping his hands away from my hips. I nodded, and with that, he grabbed my hand, leading me out of the Great Hall.

We snuck out through a back door which had no teachers standing next to it. He led me up to Gryffindor tower, where, of course, no one was around. I said the password to get us inside, and there we were, standing in the common room.

I looked to Draco, who was already looking at me, blue eyes blinded by desire and passion. I gave the slightest nod, so small I almost didn't move my head at all, but that was enough for him to realize I was ready.

His lips slammed into mine again with such a burning rage I almost pulled away, but then I realized how much I wanted this— needed this. I pushed my lips into his and blindly led us to one of the couches, right next to the burning fireplace.
