Re: INSIDE THE BALLROOM
Teagan could tell what Thalia was doing, so she shot her a look that said so. She was being so obvious! Nodding, she said, "Thank you Thalia. I'm sure John appreciates that," she said, teasing in her tone. She also noted mentally and happily that John didn't actually say anything to Thalia calling him handsome in the offhanded way she had. It made her a little more comfortable with the idea of being around them both tonight.
He glanced at John and smiled. "Oh fine," she said, trying to pretend like she didn't want. In honestly, she was dying to dance with him. It would be an excuse to touch him and be close. Though she'd proven in the recent past that being close to him made her do things she probably shouldn't. She was willing to take the risk tonight. Reaching out, she took his arm. "Lead the way, loverboy."
Over her shoulder, she gave Thalia another smile and small wave. Since John couldn't see her, she mouthed Thank you. to her friend.
