Everyone in the shire was at a party. It was Rosie's Dad's 80th birthday and she had thrown him a party in his honour. She had got some of the musicians to form a band to dance to and everyone was on the dance floor having the time of their lives.

"Can I have this dance?"
Lily turned to find a young man standing in front of her. He looked a few years older than she was yet still seemed to tower over her.
He had brown hair and dreamy blue eyes. Eyes to die for, she thought.
"Excuse me," the boy looked at her concerned. "Are you okay? I asked if you would like to dance."
Lily jolted her mind back to the present and smiled at him. "Sorry, yes I'm fine. I would love to dance."
The boy gave her a smile that made her heart skip a few beats and took her hand.
The boy pulled Lily up to the band and brought her into his arms. Gently Lily rested her head on his shoulder. She was going to stop him but he was comfortable.
�My name is Rob by the way, Rob Starsly.�
Lily looked up into his eyes and started to drown. They were the bluest eyes she had ever seen. Realising she had to reply before he got worried again, she managed to just whisper �Lily� before her throat closed up again.
�Lily, that�s a pretty name. I haven�t seen you around here before, otherwise I�m sure I would have noticed.� Lily blushed, �Are you new around?�
Lily nodded and got out �I have been here quite some time but I haven�t been out. I was poorly when I arrived. I�m staying at Sam�s house. That is why I�m here. Rosie asked me to help.�
�And I�m very glad she did.� Lily blushed again.
He cupped her face and lowered his head to brush his lips against hers. His touch was gentle, tender, as if unsure whether she would want his kiss.
Fire rushed through her; he had an intoxicating presence. His breath fanned her face. There were no longer anybody around them. The only person that mattered was Rob.
Suddenly Lily brought her mind back to reality. What was she doing? This can�t happen again. She wouldn�t let it. She pulled sharply away. �I�I can�t. I�m sorry�I�I have to go.� Lily twisted out of his arms and ran. Leaving a shocked Rob standing there.
