Nairn grumbled and Megara’s head turned just as Ruth and Dora came up alongside the couple. She’d grin and chuckle at him while turning and gave his hand a quick squeeze before she was pulled into Ruth’s hold and they swayed away. She watched them exchange childish insults with another laugh and her obvious attempt at stepping on said toes were only just avoided. Ruth wasn’t naive or unaware of the healer’s lack of timing.
"Watch it you," he’d quip, sweeping them a short distance away.
Rolling her eyes, Megara settled, turning her prying grin on him as the fool seemed to be a little distracted.
"What that fucker say to her now?" grumbled irritably from the watchful Ruth, eyeing the other pair with a narrowed look.
"Excuse me?" he’d scoff, rolling his one eye with extra sarcasm. "Do we want to talk about the last time I took your advice? Cut the lovey dovey, simping bullshit. Just cos you got your happy ending. Some of us are fine being as we are."
For a few moments, the pair danced in silence and then Ruth’s steps came to an abrupt stop. Meg’s head shook.

You made the perfect flower girl,she’d comment, following his gaze on the other couple. Others were now joining the floor, still few in number, but enough it wasn’t just the two pairs alone anymore. Glancing over to see how Nairn faired, the Bride couldn’t hide the widening smile meeting her husband, her mate and then chuckling at the glowing face of Dora.

Why, I can’t imagine it was anything scandalous?she’d tease, turning them and enjoying how Ruth’s head swivled trying to glare at Nairn.
She’s nice and sound, like stone, I suppose. I don’t get the impression she’d fuck you over. At least not in anyway you wouldn’t enjoy…

I’m just saying… I don’t think you’d be losing much if you tried it… Are you even listening?But looking up at him would leave whatever she had to say as ash in her throat. Everything about his vacant gaze startled her, her hand moving to shake their hold but suddenly switching to screaming for help as Ruth’s body convulsed violently.
