How Long Do We Live For? - Remastered

He smiled back keeping his attention on the dancing .

When everyone had finished and most collapsed on the floor, Hermione still had loads of energy and she picked up her water bottle, watching them, and she noticed one of the girls whisper something to her friends before she walked over to Koen. "Hey Koen, right?"

Koen grabbed his water and took a sip before looking at the girls. "Yeah. Why?"

"Me and some of the others were wondering what you were doing tonight."

He raised an eyebrow curiously. "I haven't-" he began pulling his phone from his pocket when it went off. "Looks like I'll be watching my cousins kid."

"Oh well, maybe straight after this class, would you like to join the rest of us for pizza, as a sort of initiation and 'welcome to the group' type thing?" She asked.

"Uh yeah sure," he agreed glancing at Hermione. "Are you coming too?"

"I can't." She shrugged. "Hunter needs me back at the ranch to keep training that horse, but go and have fun."

"Doesn't Audrina help with that?"

"Not really, it's the horse you saw me riding yesterday, I do most of the breaking in of the horses and the training, and I'm going to have to teach your sister too." She shrugged. "Anyway, I like her."

He nodded. "My sister or the horse?" he smirked at her tossing her his phone so she could see the message from Audrina saying she was going out for a drink later with Hunter.

"Both." She told him throwing the phone back to him when she read the text.

He nodded giving her a quick smile and pocketing his phone. Grabbing his bag he slung it over his shoulder before heading out.

Hermione watched him go.

"So is he coming or not?" The girl who had been talking to him asked.

"I can hear you and I'm coming," he replied over his shoulder.

"Yay."

He gave a small roll of his eyes but nodded allowing the 'ladies' to lead the way.

Hermione watched them leave as she started to tidy up.

He followed the ladies to where ever they were going.

They led him to a pizzeria and they got a table with all of the others.

Koen was mostly quiet but went along with them all.

Audrina had finished up her work for the day and had gone to pick up her daughter.

Hermione got home just as she was leaving. "Hey, how'd today go?"

Everyone was happy just messing around, some of the girls trying to flirt with him.

Koen didn't seem bothered by their flirting but he also didn't flirt back at all.

"Hey, it went well I think."

"So Koen, any girl caught your eye?" One of them asked. "After all, all of the guys pick a dance partner in the first few days of joining, so you'll need yours."

"I knew he'd keep you on."

He shrugged. "Maybe. Why, is there someone I should be considering?"

"Yeah?"
