Ari hurried to the second floor, and entered the waiting area. As expected, her friend was already there. 'Hi, I'm incredibly sorry I'm late. Are you ok? You shouldn't be worried, everything will work out fine. I'm sure you'll have permission to do the dancing lessons.' the Gryffie said encouragingly, noticing Melina's nervouseness. But really, there was nothing to be nervous about.
As Ari turned the corner, Melina jumped off her seat and threw her arms around her friend.
"Oh, thank Merlin! I thought you'd forgotten. I'm soooo bloody scared! Why am so scared?" she laughed nervously.
She grabbed Ari's and and practically dragged over to the bench where she'd been sitting.
"I don't think you're even late- I was, like, 30 minutes early! You're right- I don't need to be this nervous. It's just that I've never met the man before."
"You have no idea how much it means to me that you're here. I couldn't ask for a better friend in all the world." She hugged Ari tightly.
"So I suppose now we wait," she said simply, looking at her friend.
