Katarina | Rave Room
Kat sighed, allowing herself to be pulled along onto the dance floor. Jessa was clearly a girl made to be a socialite; within minutes of being the first one to hit the dance floor nearly the entire room was pulsing to the beat.
Even Kat got into the rhythm, allowing Walt to hold her hand and twirl her around Stasia. The younger girl laughed, though Kat knew her well enough to sense the pout behind her smile that said she really really wanted a cute boy to dance with her.
Kat only shook her head and dragged Walt into a dramatic tango. "I've never known you to be so rhythmic," he teased, dipping her so low her head nearly touched the floor. Kat could feel the eyes of the entire female half of the freshman class - and some of the boys - staring at her in deep envy.
It had always amused her, the attention she got beside Walt. They had spent more and more time together over the years, though rarely outside of the Avenger's Christmas parties and summer cook-outs. He was the last person Kat would ever be interested in - not that she was interested in anyone very often - but she was just evil enough to take great pleasure in the narrow eyes and catty whispers that followed them around.
"Are you kidding?" Kat countered, stopping to throw Walt down into a dip almost as low as hers had been. "I won every Avenger's talent show and you know it."
Walt laughed. "Are you forgetting the year Uncle Clint brought the room to tears with his rendition of "Wind Beneath My Wings"?"
Kat only rolled her eyes as he spun her away from him and they each took dramatic bows for no ones benefit but their own. Smiling one of the rare few genuine smiles she had, Kat hoped again the Academy would strengthen their friendship even more. She could use a friend like him.
