    Spinning back to face the crowd, toss ing her flaming hair to the side, a s a cool smile spread across her face . Moira’s brother Ian began swiftly strumming his guitar , tapping his foot to the rhythm . Siobhan watched hypnotized by Moira standing majestically on the stage swaying in time to the rush of music filling the space.
    Taking in the crowd, eyes caught every tap of a foot , or bob bing head in time with the music. Knowing she had caught everyone’s attention she let the song flow from her lips . Her voice floating in time with the fast beat, her hands clapping loudly. With each snap of Moira ’s hands meeting, the crowd cheering louder. Quickly rising from their seats , a few people hastily knocked their chairs over. Transfixed by the beauty of the song, Siobhan was as lost as the group around her, ignoring the forgotten chairs scattered around the room, floor forgotten. The group hurriedly forming a circle around the compact room as they wild ly dance d. Siobhan had never seen any dance like this before, eyes getting dizzy as she saw couple turning in circles , rapidly crossing others as they wove around the tables. A couple of boorish mean started pushing the tables and chairs off to the side opening the space, as more clamored to join in. Twining their arms between them, laughing wildly they continued in a frenzied circle around Siobhan as she giggled uninhibited .
    Siobhan regarded Jason staring in rapture at Moira , a slow smile forming on his face. Her mouth slowly opening as watched Jason losing himself in the light surrounding Moria. Turning her gaze to she watched Moira ’s hair blowing wildly around her face, her cheeks were flushed, as she stared in rapture at Jason.

Watching as her friend was pulled into the middle of the crowd , Siobhan let the image of Jason and Moira slip from her mind . Sarah ’s laughter wandered over twirling all over the place the group danced surrounding Siobhan in a warm cocoon . Her blonde hair fanning out as she continued to dizzily turn as the crowd spun in the opposite direction.  
    “Siobhan” Sarah called “Get your ass out here!”
    Glancing quickly at the Moira , she nodded her head slightly, inviting Siobhan to join. Jumping up Siobhan ran towards Sarah. The group surrounding Sarah quickly part ing letting Siobhan could clamber through. Reaching Sarah, they clasped their hands tightly together spinning each other wildly. The crowd’s cheers r ising loudly around them, Siobhan could only star e at Sarah, the room blurring around her as they spun at a staggering intensity.
    The music was playing faster than Siobhan had ever heard; she felt the earth beneath her tilt ing . Closing her eyes, breathing in the air around her, she caught the faint scent of woods, heard the clear twinkle of bells. The sounds of the pub were silent as the wildness of the heat burning inside was bubbling to the surface. Throwing her head back, she continued to squeeze Sarah’s hands tighter, as they became a twisting blur.
    “Bloody hell!” Simon bellowed jumping from his chair running swiftly into the crowd surrounding Siobhan and Sarah. Protectively the bodies surrounding both Sarah and Siobhan were closing in tighter blocking his entry at every angle . Turning quickly Simon sent Moira a scathing look. Winking suggestively, she raised her voice another octave, inciting hoots with in the circle.
    Marcus sat there for a moment letting the chaos spinning around him run in rampant currents through him , filling him .
