The stairways up to la butte
Can make the wreched sigh
While windmill wings of the moulin
shelter you and I ~ Rufus Wainwright *title censored* from Moulin Rouge

They were cutting a rug around the dance floor trying to avoid Professor McGonagall and Professor Dumbledore. Tiffany smiled in spite of herself. The boy personified reckless carelessness. Everything about Teddy screamed danger and adventure, he was the kind of boy who got into trouble as a habit and ran in rowdy circles and kept company with thieves and women of ill repute, he was a scoundrel and a cuter than a button. Teddy had a rugged manliness to him for a boy, it didn't hurt that he carried himself with a swagger and he could and would deck someone just for looking at him funny. Be it a boy or a girl. And seriously, if he were up against Umbridge could you blame him?

The lights swirled around her and she thought about Teddy dressed in his beautiful dress robes, looking like James Bond or someone out of an old film noir. But therein lay the trouble. Teddy was unpredictable. He was a character and though he tried very hard to show otherwise he has his own set of values, his own code of honor but it was far removed from King Arthur's Knight's rules of chivalry, or the cavalier Spanish romance of Ottery's manner.

"What's on your mind, baby?" Teddy asked.

"Where I should stuff your cigar? This is a date Teddy, I'm not your baby, yet," she couldn't believed she'd just said that, "I mean, ever. I'm nobody's baby but my daddy's."

"I love your feistiness Tiffany, but why do you have to be all liberated?" Teddy asked.

Tiffany stopped dancing and stared at the boy. She wanted very much to slap him hard across the face but looking at his eyes she could see that he was being very honest. He clearly did not understand why.

"Teddy, you're such a boy," she said and kissed him. From across the room Ottery spat his pumpkin juice, one because it tasted nasty, seriously pumpkin juice? Pumpkin pie yes, but not juice, and secondly because he had caught sight of Tiffany kissing Teddy. Luna waved her wand and was spared the spray from Ottery fountain by her shield spell.

"Sorry, Luna. I swear I told that boy if he tried any unforgivables," Ottery started to roll up his sleeves but stopped as he felt a hand on his shoulder.

"Teddy's brave Ottery, he's conniving, and he's cunning, but he's not stupid. Even he wouldn't dare use an unforgivable in front of me," the Headmaster's voice calmly explained.

"Wait a minute," Ottery took another sip from his pumpkin juice and spit it out, "What?! Are you trying to tell me that Tiffany is kissing him on purpose?"

Luna started to giggle. Professor Dumbledore smiled and nodded and Ottery was about to take another sip when the Headmaster took his cup. "Perhaps you'd like some Coca Cola or something else Ottery."

AN: That's all for now kids, gotta work on my Nano.

I'm so behind.
