Harry and I walked sluggishly down the empty corridors alongside Filch and his cat. I couldn't believe that we were caught, we weren't doing anything terrible, just dancing. But we were still probably going to get a week's detention.
Harry was still holding my hand as we turned the corner to Mcgonagall's office. I looked up at Harry and gave him an unconvincing smile, he squeezed my hand and we walked into the office.
"Mr potter. Miss Weasley. Please take a seat."
Harry and I sat down on two chairs opposite the large desk in the centre of the room, I couldn't help but admire the plentiful bookshelves and all the photo frames around the room, there was a small window behind the desk with a direct view of the quidditch pitch, it looked strange at night.
"What were you two doing walking around the castle at this time of night?"
I opened my mouth to speak but Harry beat me to it, "if I told you, you wouldn't believe us."
I have Harry a questioning look, but he continued to stare at Professor Mcgonagall.
"Believe me Potter, I've heard a fair share of excuses. Now I ask you again. What were you doing roaming the castle at this time of night?"
I spoke quickly before Harry, "dance lessons."
Mcgonagall looked shocked, "well that's a new one."
We sat in silence for a few moments.
"Why so late at night though."
Harry and Mcgonagall looked at me, waiting for an answer, "there is nothing better than dancing in the moonlight." I said with a grin.
Mcgonagall let out a small laugh, and a smile emerged on her face, "I don't blame you, by the looks of potter's dancing he will need a few one on one lessons."
Harry looked at us, confused "so we aren't in trouble?" He asked questioningly.
"Of course your in trouble." At this, my smile dropped and so did Harry's, "detention, tomorrow at 7pm in the gardens, you will be trimming the hedges and tending to the garden."
I glanced at Harry, it could be worse.
"Thank you Professor." I said standing up, Harry copied my actions and we left the room.
We were walking back to the common room when I noticed we were still holding hands, I quickly pulled away.
Harry looked at our hands, his eyes widened and a faint blush emerged on his cheeks.
"Garden work, wow." I laughed.
"Yeah, I mean it could be worse." Harry replied to me.
"Oh yeah? Like what?"
"Oh I dunno maybe, cleaning the loo's."
I laughed, "I don't wanna see what people have been eating thank you very much."
We laughed, it was fun being with him, I loved every second, but I was nervous about what I was feeling. Harry and I were just friends. Nothing more. Nothing less. I don't want to get hurt.
"Hey, y/n. Can we practice dancing again?" Harry asked.
"Sure, I'm free again tomorrow."
"No. I mean like right now." Harry stood still, waiting for my reply.
I watched him, "oh...oh alright."
I walked back towards him, he took my waist and my hand in his, I placed my free hand on his shoulder, and we started to dance. We were walking in box steps, spinning, occasionally stepping on the others toes. We laughed so loud that I saw Mcgonagall walk out of her office, she didn't say anything, she just stood and watched us.
