She peeked around the corner to make sure.
"I'm never gonna dance again. Guilty feet have got no rhythm."
She ducked back and stuffed her fist in her mouth. Not only was he singing... George Michael... he was dancing too. Well, not really dancing. Sort of swaying to the beat.
"Though it's easy to pretend. I know you're not a fool. Shoulda known better than to cheat a friend. Wasted chance that I've been given."
Dawn rose, got her giggles controlled, and danced in behind him.
"So I'm never gonna dance again... "
She busted in. "The way I danced with you-ewwwwww!"
Harry spun around with a gasp.
This was the guy who defeated the evil wizard-dude? He didn't look much older than her. He was staying with the council temporarily for safekeeping. Naturally Dawn was curious.
"Sorry. I was-"
"Singing and dancing? I saw."
He blushed.
"It's totally cool. If asked, I'll say you were listening to some manly Metallica, and there was NO dancing."
"I'm never dancing again."
"Yes, you are. Dancing isn't the prob. It's that you look ridiculous dancing alone." She held out a hand to him. "Now don't be shy. I've already heard you singing."
