Closed A Sgian-Dubh To the Heart

[Aonghas Fergusson]

Aonghas knew it probably wasn’t the kindest thing for him to do, asking Lauren to the valentines ball. But he had thought it might be nice and partly because Katia was gone. He just didn’t want to be alone and figured that she too probably wouldn’t want to be alone. He was dressed properly for this, deciding to lean into the scottish costume he’d be soon making and selling. Family kilt, sporran, family crest on the kilt pin, white shirt, a sgian-dubh and bow tie. He hadn’t often worn it for these events, but given he wouldn’t do graduation he knew he might as well do it. He walked to the great hall arrive at precisely when he had told Lauren he would be there and waited for her. He wanted this to be nice for her too and spend the time with her. ​

 

[Lauren Carter]

Lauren was ready for the Valentines Dance. She had put more effort in her looks than before, because she wanted it to be perfect. This time she had an date, and it was her best friend. But sometimes she wished it was more, but she put the idea out of her head. He was going to marry Katia. She walked to the Great Hall and the spot where she would meet Aonghas. She tried to forget this was the last event, to make it the best. But it was hard to think positive. The thought that she would be feeling alone again next year, Aonghas had been giving her the feeling she was wanted. When she spotted him she smiled and walked towards him. '' Hey.'' Lauren than said and went standing across him. '' You look cool.'' Lauren than said to him. She hoped she didn't make an fool out of herself with dressing up like this. It wasn't that she was so confident.​

Aonghas gave a little smile, "Cheers, it's traditional dress," he explained but she'd been to his home and knew a little about it. She knew about some of that. He put out his arm so they could walk into the hall together. "You look beautiful," he told her sincerely. "Shall we get some snacks, see if anything is new for this time?" he knew that she didn't always want to dance, but they had always tended to be with the snacks and he didn't mind that at all. It would be nice to do as they had always done. ​

Lauren listened as Aonghas replied. She knew it would be something to do where he would come from, the outfit he wore. It was cool he was different than the rest. She looked at his arm and smiled as he complimented her. '' Thanks. '' She didn't mentioned that she all did it for him, but she didn't want to talk too much because she would say something stupid for sure. Lauren had said she didn't liked to dance, but perhaps she would feel different. The thought of dancing and being close to him seemed kind of nice to her all of sudden, but she was up for some snacks first. And took his arm nodding at his question. '' For sure. I don't think there is an chance of us getting something new. We tried so much food.'' Lauren said with an grin. Looking at the snacks as they arrived there.

Aonghas gave a little smile, "No, but some old favourites are fun," he said, he was keeping as close as the way they walked allowed. He knew if things were different he might've been able to be more for Lauren. He knew now more than ever how his brother had felt, how strong that affection for someone genuine must be to walk away from family. Aonghas was sure if given a chance, if his family wasn't how it was, he might've been able to be more for Lauren, they might've been more. She was his closest friend in the world, even taking katia in for account. "I mean we could dance, but you've not always been one for dancing and I want this to be fun for you," he paused in his steps, they were passing the edge of the dancefloor in their journey for snacks there was time to go to the dancefloor first. ​
